AI leaders sign statement asking the government to do something about automated AI

Employees and executives from major artificial intelligence companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Microsoft, have signed a public statement calling on the US government to support international efforts to govern and pace frontier AI development. The signatories warn that the impending automation of AI research could accelerate capabilities beyond human control, creating severe safety risks. Amid intense competitive pressures that prevent individual companies from slowing down unilaterally, they request the development of technical and governance tools to ensure safety measures keep pace with technological advancement.
