Data Taxation

In this paper, we propose a tax that affects the training of any model of sufficient size, and a concrete formula for implementing it. We explain why we think our framework is robust, future-proof and applicable in practice. We also give some concrete examples of how the formula would apply to current models, and demonstrate that it would heavily disincentivize work on ML models that could develop AGI-like capabilities, but not other useful narrow AI work that does not pose existential risks.
