Prioritise AI safety in response to the clear catastrophic and existential risks

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

To pressure AI development companies to prioritise safety over money making and price they are doing this before we allow more AI models to be used in the UK

Because lots of leading AI developers have left the leading AI development companies due to their ethics and lack of regulations to keep it safe. There is clearly a race between countries to be the leaders in AI development and bypassing human safety over financial gain, it’s evident that the potential harm to human life is high, either through super intelligence or malicious intent of other humans… including risk of extinction. This should be as important as regulating nuclear weapons.
