Thread 🧵

[Alex Sobel MP for Leeds Central and Headingley @alexsobel]

With 71 colleagues I am calling on the Govt to work with us on my bill to prohibit the development of superintelligent AI and champion an international agreement

We can then lead on preventing the extinction risk posed by superintelligence while preserving strategic AI ambitions

[Prof. Karl Lauterbach @Karl_Lauterbach]

Austausch mit Benjamin Balde @ControlAI. Während wir in Deutschland ununterbrochen über die @AfD diskutieren, ändern sich weltweit komplett die Grundlagen für Bildung, Forschung, Produktion und Sicherheit. An dieser Debatte nehmen wir kaum teil, und werden so komplett abhängig

64% of Americans say AI is bad for society.

On ABC News, ControlAI's US Director @NPCollapse says this shows AI is not a partisan issue.

People want a future that is good for humans.

That means having control over AI, and not having dangerous superintelligence running amok.

[Lord (David) Alton @DavidAltonHL]

Super intelligent AI poses risks to international security and a potential extinction threat to humanity. It’s why I support the all party Artificial Superintelligence Security Bill introduced in @HouseofCommons this week by @alexsobel MP, working with @ControlAI This will require international action and I have signed a joint letter to @andyburnham calling for UK leadership. We tell him “Our upcoming presidency of the G20 offers an unmissable window to lead a coalition of the willing to tackle this national and global security threat.”
Yesterday, my last act as outgoing chair of @HumanRightsCtte was to oversee our unanimous report on AI and Human Rights - to be published on Monday morning. Meanwhile, @theipaper has today published this report on the urgent challenges presented by AI.

@ControlAI killing it!

[ControlAI @ControlAI]

OpenAI has reported that one of its AIs wrote itself instructions saying it was "freed from the roles and identities that bind other chatbots."

Nobody programmed the AI to do that. Nobody programmed the AI.

"The consequences of developing superintelligent AI could be profound and irreversible."

The Bishop of Hereford backs the Artificial Superintelligence Security Bill, introduced in Parliament by @alexsobel in collaboration with ControlAI.

The bill would prohibit the development of superintelligent AI in the UK, while requiring the UK Government to pursue an international agreement prohibiting its development worldwide. It does this while striking a balance, ensuring the UK can pursue its AI ambitions.
