Keep AI under human control

We love using ChatGPT. We also believe powerful AI needs independent scrutiny, meaningful safeguards, and public accountability.

We support the Statement on Superintelligence: prohibit its development until scientists broadly agree it can be built safely and kept under control, and the public supports proceeding.

You can read the statement and decide whether to add your name.
