AI activists seek ban on Artificial General Intelligence
Briefly

An activist group named STOP AI met at the Silverstone Cafe in San Francisco to discuss their mission to halt the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI). They aim to force governments to terminate anything associated with AGI and destroy existing models. While they clarify they do not oppose all AI, their focus is on preventing advancements that could threaten humanity. The group also plans a protest in memory of Suchir Balaji, a former OpenAI employee whose suspicious death is tied to whistleblower allegations against the company.
Our main demand is that we're trying to permanently ban the development of artificial general intelligence, or AGI.
We want governments to force AI companies to shut down everything related to the creation of general-purpose AI models, destroy any existing general-purpose AI model, and permanently ban their development.
