You don't need a datacenter to train a 30B model. Further, the rapid trend of increasing efficiency and decreasing model size for a given level of capabilities means that what is possible to do without a datacenter will continue to increase. Presumably performance on the level of the current frontier of AI would be achieved in short order and the ceiling would only continue to advance from there. Ergo I expect such an approach to regulation would prove entirely self defeating.

Remember, as I mentioned earlier the human brain only consumes on the order of 20 watts and fits in a handbag. Would you have us destroy all chip fabs? Ban all biomedical and genetic research? How far are you imagining this butlerian jihad would go?
