Everyone should slow down AI development except for me

This satirical piece mocks the current discourse around AI safety by proposing a global pause on development so a fictional company can dominate the market. The author uses absurd humor to critique corporate motives and the hype surrounding artificial general intelligence.
Why it matters
It serves as a satirical commentary on the 'AI safety' movement and the competitive, profit-driven nature of the tech industry.
A cyberpunk city recreated through triangle primitives - Final Fantasy XIV screenshot passed through Primitive The power of science is staggering! Every day we're making new advancements in the field of generative artificial intelligence via judicious application of large language model inference technology. However, as we approach the next critical threshold in capability, we must look forward to ensure that we're not inadvertently creating a bad user experience in the form of mass societal collapse due to our technology replacing organic contributions in the workplace.
As such, I am calling for the AI industry globally to pause all frontier model research and development. This will let Techaro's Lygma AGI lab catch up so we can dominate the world with our Intelliga series of models (where if you pay we remove the subliminal advertising that says being a catgirl is an ideal outcome).
