Despite what AI companies want you to believe, AGI is not inevitable.

The race-to-the-bottom to build it is not inevitable.

Losing control of our future is not inevitable.

We can build AI that works for humanity, instead of replacing us.

Statement from Michael Kleinman, @FLI_org Head of US Policy, on the midterm elections:

“The pro-human movement is winning.

In both ruby red and navy blue states, Americans embraced candidates who ran on regulating AI while rebuking those who failed to demonstrate their pro-human credentials and took money from Silicon Valley. This outcome was not inevitable; AI companies could develop tools that improve people’s lives and support human flourishing. Instead, they peddle companions for children, replacement for workers, and force data centers upon unwilling communities. Voters have had enough: they want strong and effective guardrails now, and they’re demanding accountability.

The AI reckoning is here.”

🇬🇧 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 People across the UK, France, and Germany have spoken:

AI weapons in warfare need global, binding laws.

This month, countries could start negotiations on legally binding rules for autonomous weapons systems at the UN’s CCW Review Conference.

‼️ Along with 15 other signers, FLI’s Legal Strategist David Atkinson has prepared an amicus brief in support of the @nytimes' court case against @OpenAI and @Microsoft.

The brief argues that AI companies shouldn't get exemptions under the law that the courts would never extend to humans, and that authors, artists, journalists and other creators have to respect copyright. The AI industry should play by those rules.
