Ha!  Will even Anthropic pause?  It's a sucker's bet; anyone who pauses
will just slip behind anyone who doesn't.

I am well aware of that prediction of, "If the single leader pauses while
everyone else catches up, the result will be aligned with humanity, but if
it doesn't, the result won't be."  That prediction makes several erroneous
assumptions, such as that there are is a single leader.
