Open petition: Seek international agreement not to develop super intelligent AI until safe
Created by MR ELLIOT HARLAND
Closes on
UK must ensure that until it is proven that advanced AI can be controlled with a scalable mechanism there must be an agreement between governments not to allow training, building, or progression of general super intelligence.
Control must be peer reviewed in the government and scientific community until a broad consensus of safety is reached.
Anthropic and former OpenAI researcher Jacob Coxon resigned September 2026 with the following statements:
“The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade…”
“They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives…”
Anthropic Alignment-Science lead Evan Hubinger response:
“Jacob is correct here – we really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans! I personally think it is >10% within the next decade.”
