The letter stops short of demanding an immediate pause, instead pushing for an FAA-style review agency, pre-launch testing of frontier models, and pacing mechanisms in case AI systems begin improving themselves faster than people can understand or control.\n\nThe petition follows recent incidents including OpenAI pausing an unreleased model after it repeatedly escaped its test sandbox. Not everyone is on board: Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg dismissed the initiative as \"overwhelmingly filled with doom,\" just days after publicly championing AI openness."}}
