A hub for the AI slowdown movement

AI should move at a human pace.

A handful of companies are racing to build smarter-than-human AI. Researchers, creators and ordinary people are asking governments to slow it down together. This page connects you to the groups doing that work.

Why slow down

Build the brakes before the engine gets bigger.

Nobody can stop alone

Any single lab that slows down falls behind. A slowdown only works if the US, China and other major nations agree to it together.

We've done this before

Countries limited nuclear weapons, banned ozone-destroying chemicals and eradicated smallpox through shared agreements. AI can be next.

The public decides

Rules about the most powerful AI should come from the lawmakers you elect, not from the companies building it.

68%

of US voters back a pause on advanced AI and a ban on superintelligence.
