Our future belongs to us.

Freeze the race to build ever more powerful AI. Put people in control.

Sign the open letter.

Negotiate an international AI treaty that freezes the race toward more powerful frontier systems until enforceable safety limits and public oversight are in place.

What we are calling for

Make it happen.

A handful of companies should not get to gamble with everyone’s future. We need governments to act together, set enforceable limits and give the public a real say in what comes next.

01

Set enforceable limits

Agree international limits on the computing power used to train frontier AI, with a process to adjust those limits as technology changes. A promise from a company is not enough.

02

Put safety before the race

Build a shared international AI safety research effort and preserve access to systems kept within agreed safe limits. Freezing the frontier race does not mean banning every useful AI tool.

03

Make the rules count

Create independent international compliance oversight. Governments must be able to check that the rules are followed, rather than relying on companies to police themselves.

The public letter

Our open letter.

To our elected representatives and governments:

Our future should be decided by the people, not by a race between a few technology companies.

More powerful AI could bring benefits, but it also creates serious risks through misuse, concentrated power and loss of human control. The public should not have to accept those risks just because companies are competing to move first.

We call on governments to negotiate an international AI treaty that freezes the race toward more powerful frontier systems until enforceable safety limits and public oversight are in place.

The agreement should set internationally enforced limits on frontier training compute, create a shared AI safety research effort, preserve access to systems within agreed safe limits and establish independent compliance oversight.

Give the public a meaningful role in shaping these rules. Do not leave decisions about everyone’s future to the companies building these systems.

Freeze the frontier race. Put people first.
