+title: AI is not just coming for your job
+description: AI labs are explicitly racing to automate every job on the planet
+ and that is only the tip of the iceberg.
+date: 2026-05-11
+---
+
+**AI labs are explicitly racing to automate every job on the planet, _including yours_. And job loss is only the tip of the iceberg.**
+
+## AI is coming for your job
+
+This is not speculation. It is the stated goal.
+
+OpenAI defines its mission as building "highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work." Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Meta and xAI are racing toward the same target and their leaders say they are only a few years away. They are pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into systems designed to do what you do but faster and more cheaply.
+
+Lawyers, designers, radiologists, software engineers, teachers, accountants, translators, customer service workers, screenwriters, drivers, analysts. Every desk job, every creative job, every job that requires a screen is on the list. The labs are not hiding this. They are advertising it to investors.
+
+If they succeed, the question is not whether your job survives. The question is what a society looks like when the people who used to do the work no longer have a seat at the table.
+
+## Job loss is only the tip of the iceberg
+
+The same race that is targeting for your job is coming for everything else too.
+
+The same AI systems are being deployed to decide who gets hired, who gets fired, who gets a loan, who gets a diagnosis, who gets bail and what your children are taught. Decisions that used to be made by people, with someone to call when they got it wrong, are being handed to AI systems no one fully understands and no one is accountable for.
+
+This is only the beginning. The AI labs are not trying to build better tools. They are trying to build systems more capable than humans in every domain, including the domain of building more powerful AI. The same researchers building these systems openly acknowledge that they do not know how to keep them aligned with human values or under human control. Many of them, including Nobel laureates and the most-cited AI scientists alive, have warned that this trajectory could end in human extinction.
+
+This is not a fringe view. It is the position of the people building the technology. They are asking the world to trust that they will figure out safety on the way. We would not accept this from any other industry. We should not accept it now.
+
+## What this campaign is about
+
+We are calling for a pause on the development of the most dangerous AI systems until their builders can prove, to independent evaluators, that they are safe.
+
+No company should be allowed to deploy systems that reshape the economy, the information environment, and the balance of power without showing their work. The burden of proof belongs with the people doing the building, not with the rest of us.
+
+Over the coming months, PauseAI chapters around the world are:
+
+- Collecting stories from workers, students, parents, patients and creatives about how AI is already changing their lives, and what they fear is coming next
+- Building coalitions with unions, student groups, parent associations, healthcare workers and creative industries who are seeing the same pattern from different angles
+- Meeting with elected officials and decision makers to demand binding limits on frontier AI development, backed by international coordination
+- Preparing for a global day of action this summer to put public pressure on governments to act before it is too late
+
+This is not a campaign to save any one job. It is a campaign to make sure humans stay in charge of their future.
+
+## What you can do
+
+The labs will not slow down on their own. Public pressure is what changes that, and it starts with people like you taking one concrete step.
+
+- **Share your story :** Tell us how AI is affecting your work, your studies, your healthcare, your family, or what you fear is coming next. Your story is one of the most powerful tools we have to make decision makers listen. [Share your story](https://pauseai.info/ai-concerns)
+ - Optional: record a short video of your concern and share it on social media.
+
+- **Talk with friends and family:** Most people sense something is wrong but do not have the words for it.
+- **Write to your elected official:** Politicians act when they hear from their constituents. It takes two minutes with our email builder. [pauseai.info/email-builder](http://pauseai.info/email-builder)
+- **Connect to your local chapter:** Find the people organising near you and join their next action. [pauseai.info/communities](http://pauseai.info/communities)

We asked NAIC for specific excerpts they considered misleading, and how a free community event differs from the paid commercial workshops listed on the same calendar.

At PauseAI, we're organising a coordinated international response to the book by hosting events across 4 countries. These book readings will provide a space for people to learn more about the book's warning, and to begin to use their voice to support an international treaty pausing frontier AI development.

+
+As of April 2026, we have a six-person team:
+
+- **Maxime Fournes** (CEO)
+- **Irina Tavera** (Organising Director)
+- **Jonathan Moody** (Communications Director)
+- Country organisers for the UK and France
+
+The France role has now transitioned to PauseAI France's own payroll, and the UK roles transition to PauseAI UK at the end of June 2026.
+
+See our [funding page](/funding) for up-to-date info on how much we've received and from whom.
+
+## Theory of change in brief
+
+Good policy proposals for AI governance already exist. Public concern about AI is surging. The missing link is an organised political constituency that converts concern into political action. PauseAI Global builds that constituency. We complement policy organisations who design specific proposals by building the movement that demands their adoption.
+
+A pause on frontier AI development requires multi-jurisdiction simultaneous pressure: coordinated domestic mobilisation in several major countries at once. A federation of national chapters running coordinated campaigns is the structure designed to produce exactly that. For more detail, see our [Theory of Change](/theory-of-change).
## Funding Scenarios
-### Scenario 0: No additional funding
+The scenarios below describe what PauseAI Global can do at different funding levels over a 12-month period. They reflect a calibration exercise in early 2026, mapping our theory of change to the resources actually required to execute it.
+
+### Scenario 0: Minimum (€300k)
+
+Sustains the core team and a minimal level of programme activity. We maintain the executive team (CEO, Organising Director, Communications Director) and keep the federation infrastructure running, but cannot complete the team needed to scale operations. Programme activity is limited to two PauseCon conference, modest chapter support, and two coordinated global campaigns. New hiring is paused.
+
+This is the level at which the organisation continues to exist and function, but does not grow.
+
+### Scenario 1: Base (€900k)
-Almost every person working on PauseAI is doing so voluntarily, so our burn rate is very low.
-We have around €90k in the bank.
+Completes the eight-person team that coordinates the global federation and sustains core programme activity.
-- Facilitate the formation of new National and Local groups. Provide them with help, guidance, materials and funding.
-- Organize protests and other events to raise awareness about the issue and grow our community.
-- Organize letter writing workshops to push the national-level politicians to initialize treaty negotiations.
-- Build alliances with other organizations and overlapping cause areas to amplify our impact. E.g. artists, concerned parents, climate activists, job unions, etc.
-- Grow our social media presence through regular posts and engagement.
-- Participate in more [podcasts and interviews](/press).
-- Create more video content (focused on shorts) to reach a wider audience.
-- Get (paid) help from experts in various fields (marketing, policy, AI safety, community organizing, protesting, etc.) to learn from their experience and improve our work.
-- Experiment with social media ads to grow our community and learn what works.
-- Reach out to politicians and influencers.
-- Spend our remaining budget on PauseAI community projects through our MicroGrants program.
+**New hires (in priority order):**
-### Scenario 1: €200k funding
+- **Operations Director**: manages finances, HR, tech, contractor relationships, compliance and reporting (currently absorbed by the CEO).
+- **Development / Fundraising Director**: builds a sustainable funding pipeline so the organisation is never one grant away from closing down.
+- **Regional Organiser (1)**: dedicated coordinator for a high-potential region (likely continental Europe or Asia-Pacific).
+- **Policy / Strategy Director**: maintains relationships with policy partners, develops our asks, briefs politicians who need detailed proposals.
+- **Regional Organiser (2)**: second regional coordinator, extending federation support.
-- All of the above, plus:
-- Hire **National / Regional directors** for our most impactful areas (UK, France).
-- Organize more [PauseCon](https://pausecon.org/) events to train our volunteers/organizers.
-- Set up an international pipeline for (video) content. Make it easier for national groups to consistently post high-quality, translated content to grow their impact.
-- Increase our spending on Ads on various social media platforms.
-- Increase our MicroGrants budget, allowing us to fund more community projects.
+**Programme activity:**
-### Scenario 2: €600k funding
+- Two PauseCon conferences per year (training the next generation of organisers).
+- Quarterly coordinated global campaigns across all chapters.
+- Meaningful seed funding for 8+ chapters: local events, materials, protests, legal setup.
+- At least two coordinated global protests.
+- Sustained CEO media presence, thought leadership, press releases, video content.
+- Investment in developing chapters in Asia, including China.
-- All of the above, plus:
-- Hire a **policy director** who will help us strategize and execute our policy goals. This person should help us educate volunteers on how to lobby effectively and help us with our policy proposals. This person needs to have international legal expertise and preferably knowledge in AI or technology policy/governance.
-- Hire a **press director** who will help us get more media coverage. This person should have experience in PR and media relations.
-- Drastically increased ads & MicroGrants budgets, leading to more growth and impactful community projects.
+### Scenario 2: Ambitious (€3.5M)
-### Scenario 3: €1.2M+ funding
+Funds three capabilities the base tier cannot deliver.
-- All of the above, plus:
-- Have more funding available for [national](https://pauseai.info/national-groups) and local PauseAI chapters.
-- Hire a PR agency to help us set up a large-scale international media campaign with a petition, advertisements.
+**Sustained narrative production.** Two Content Creators, a Social Media Lead, a PR firm retainer for crisis communications and warning-shot amplification, and a Chief of Staff managing culture and onboarding. Together these enable continuous public-facing narrative on frontier AI risk rather than reactive communications.
+
+**Paid-media capacity (€1M PR campaigns budget).** The first paid-reach operation in PauseAI Global's history. Earned media has a ceiling: the audiences who already read those outlets. Paid campaigns reach the communities we need next: students entering an AI-disrupted labour market, workers in sectors already being automated, democracy advocates tracking AI's effects on elections.
+
+**Treaty-lane infrastructure.** Two Senior Public Affairs Directors embedded in priority jurisdictions (likely UK and EU), a Legal Advisor on retainer for multi-jurisdiction regulatory expertise, and Regional Organiser capacity expanded from two to five. This staffing lets us carry a coordinated policy ask across multiple governments simultaneously.
+
+**Programme budgets scale with staff.** PauseCons become serious international convenings with paid speakers, policymaker guests, and professional production. Chapter seed funding rises to €400k, supporting 8+ chapters substantively. Protest capacity expands to enable more coordinated cross-jurisdiction actions.
+
+### Scenario 3: Maximum (€8.5M)
+
+The maximum we estimate we could meaningfully absorb in 12 months. Funds the ambitious tier plus four additional capabilities:
+
+- **Chapter seeding at scale (~€1M).** Direct seed funding and operational support for ten or more new chapters in priority jurisdictions. A portfolio bet: not all ten will develop into high-performing chapters, but five or six outstanding chapters could match the trajectories of PauseAI UK, France and Germany.
+- **Incubation of adjacent organisations (~€1.5M).** Funding to spin up two or three organisations the pause ecosystem currently lacks. Candidates include a dedicated elite defection capture organisation (legal cover, platforming and journalist relationships for AI company whistleblowers), a warning shot conversion media operation, and a specialised treaty-lane policy organisation.
+- **Direct country-leadership funding (~€1.5M).** Dedicated funding for country-level leadership in four or five priority jurisdictions where chapters are not yet self-sustaining, allowing them to stand up without premature self-sustainment pressure.
+- **Substantial paid-media capacity (~€1M additional).** Sustained public affairs advertising in priority jurisdictions, complementing earned media and creating sustained presence across the news cycle.

-How does PauseAI plan to achieve its mission?
+## What we want
-## What do we want?
+Our [proposal](/proposal) describes what we want: a global halt to frontier AI development until we know how to do it safely and under democratic control.
-Our [proposal](/proposal) describes what we want: Globally halt frontier AI development **until we know how to do it safely** and **under democratic control**.
+This page explains how we plan to get there.
-## Why don't we have a pause yet?
+## The gap we fill
-The problem is not a lack of concerned experts (86% of AI researchers believe the control problem is real and important).
-The problem is not a lack of public support for our proposal (by far most people [already want](/polls-and-surveys) AI to be slowed down).
-However, there are some important reasons why we don't have a pause yet:
+Good policy proposals for AI governance already exist. Public concern about AI is high and growing. But concern does not automatically become political action. Left unfocused, it dissipates, or gets captured by movements that don't address frontier risk.
-- **Race dynamics**.
- AI creates a lot of value, especially if your AI is the most powerful.
- The desire to be the first to develop a new AI is very strong, both for companies and for countries.
- Companies understand that the best-performing AI model can have a far higher price, and countries understand that they can get a lot of strategic and economic power by leading the race.
- The people within AI labs tend to understand the risks, but they have strong incentives to focus on capabilities rather than safety.
- Politicians often are not sufficiently aware of the risks, but even if they were, they might still not want to slow down AI development in their country because of the economic and strategic benefits.
- We need an _international_ pause.
- That's the whole point of our movement.
-- **Lack of urgency**.
- People [underestimate the pace of AI progress](/urgency).
- Even experts in the field have been consistently surprised by how quickly AI has been improving.
-- **Our psychology**.
- Read more about how our [psychology makes it very difficult](/psychology-of-x-risk) for us to internalize how bad things can get.
-- **The Overton window**.
- Even though public support for AI regulations and slowing down AI development is high (see [polls & surveys](/polls-and-surveys)), many of the topics we discuss is still outside of the "Overton window", which means that they are considered too extreme to discuss. In 2023 this window has shifted quite a bit (the FLI Pause letter, Geoffrey Hinton quitting, the Safe.ai statement), but it's still too much of a taboo in political elite circles to seriously consider the possibility of pausing. Additionally, the existential risk from AI is still ridiculed by too many people. It is our job to move this overton window further.
+The missing link is an organised political constituency that converts growing public concern into political pressure, making the governance proposals already on the table politically viable. PauseAI Global builds that constituency. We complement technical policy organisations who design specific proposals, by building the movement that demands their adoption. Together, we aim to hand decision-makers everything they need to act: a policy framework ready to implement and a democratic mandate that makes acting politically advantageous.
-## How do we pause?
+## How activation actually works
-Because of the race dynamics mentioned above, we should not expect a local pause.
-We need an _international pause_.
-We can get there in two ways:
+Effective organisations are communicating AI risks, but awareness alone does not produce political action. Social movement research shows that behaviour change requires community reinforcement: people activate when their peers activate, not by reading articles.
-1. **An international treaty**. We [banned blinding laser weapons](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol_on_Blinding_Laser_Weapons) and [CFCs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Protocol) through a treaty, so we can also ban superhuman AI through a treaty. These treaties are often initiated by a small group of countries, and then other countries join in. A [summit](/summit) is often the event where such a treaty is initiated and signed. We need to convince our politicians to initialize treaty negotiations. This requires public awareness, public support, and finally a feeling of responsibility on the part of the politicians.
-2. **A unilateral supply-chain pause**. The AI supply chain is highly centralized. Virtually all AI chips used in training runs are designed by NVidia, produced by TSMC, which uses lithography machines by ASML. If any of these monopolies were to pause, the entire AI industry would pause. We can achieve this by lobbying these companies, and by lobbying the governments that have leverage over these companies.
+PauseAI is the activation layer. We train organisers who build local teams and train new organisers within their own communities. This is a chain reaction model designed to compound. PauseCon conferences equip people with organising skills. Protests provide the activation energy that tips someone from concerned to committed. Our federation model enables national chapters to replicate the playbook independently.
-## What do we do to get there?
+Two conditions must hold for the chain reaction to fire:
-1. **Grow the movement**. The larger our group is, the more we can do. We grow our movement through radical transparency, online community building, and fostering [local communities](/communities). We empower our volunteers to take action, and we make it easy for them to do so.
-2. **Protests**. [Protests](/protests) are shown to increase public awareness and support. They are also a great way to recruit new members and improve community feeling. Because our subject is relatively new, even small protests can get very good [media coverage](/press). We encourage our members to [organize protests](/organizing-a-protest) in their own cities by providing them with the tools and knowledge they need.
-3. **Lobbying**. _Every volunteer can become an amateur lobbyist_. We send [emails to politicians](/email-builder), we meet with them, and we stay in touch. We ask them to put AI risks on the agenda, draft a treaty. The core issue that we're trying to solve is a _lack of information_ and a _lack of [emotional internalization](/psychology-of-x-risk)_ and insight in the political sphere.
-4. **Inform the public**. We make people aware of the [risks](/risks) we're facing and [what we can do](/action) to prevent them. We do this publicly by publishing articles, videos, images and posts on social media. We join podcasts, give talks, and organize events. We also reach out to partner organizations, influencers, educational institutions and other groups that can play a role in public awareness. Read about our [communication strategy](/communication-strategy).
+1. **People must understand the severity** of the situation: that the race to build AGI poses catastrophic and existential risks to them and their families.
+2. **People must believe action is possible**, that a pause is achievable, not utopian.
-## What do we _not_ do?
+The second is as important as the first. A lack of hope produces despair and paralysis, not movement. This is why we organise around a concrete, unifying demand: an international pause on frontier AI development. It is specific enough to mobilise around, broad enough to unite people with different concerns, and high-optionality by design. It directly counters the most powerful obstacle we face: the widespread, self-fulfilling belief that AI development simply cannot be stopped.
-- **We don't tolerate violence**. We make it very clear to our members and the people joining our protests that we are a peaceful movement. We do not promote violence, and we do not tolerate it. We communicate this in our Protestor's Code of Conduct, our Discord rules, and our Volunteer agreement. The main reason for this is because we want to be the good guys, we want the public to be on our side.
-- **We don't take sides in other topics**. We are a movement that focuses on an AI Pause. We do not discuss and take sides in other topics, even if (short-term) opportunities arise that may make this tempting to do.
-- **We avoid dishonesty**. We need people to trust what we say, so we must do everything to promote honesty.
+This is also why our communications discipline pairs the severity of the risk with a concrete call to action. Join us, contact your representative, back this proposal. We never leave people with alarm and no remedy.
-## Let's get to it
+## What it takes to get a pause
-[Join](/join) PauseAI and [take action](/action)!
+A pause on frontier AI development is an international agreement. International agreements of this kind require five conditions to hold simultaneously:
+
+1. **Political will** in multiple major-power governments sufficient that defection is unattractive.
+2. **A technical and governance framework** ready to execute.
+3. **A triggering window**, almost certainly event-driven, sufficient to break political inertia.
+4. **Elite consensus** that pausing is the responsible position, separating expert defenders of the industry from its commercial defenders.
+5. **A public mandate** visible enough to make signing politically rewarding rather than costly for the leaders who do it.
+
+PauseAI Global's primary lane covers conditions 1, 3 and 5: building the coordinated multi-jurisdiction public mandate, structuring the capacity to convert warning-shot windows into political momentum, and making the politics of signing favourable for governments that would act.
+
+Conditions 2 and 4 are the lane of policy organisations like MIRI, FLI and ControlAI. They develop the proposals, brief decision-makers, and build expert consensus, while we build the political conditions under which proposals get adopted.
+
+PauseAI cannot deliver a pause unilaterally. PauseAI Global can build the substrate that makes a pause possible when the other conditions are met.
+
+## Why a federation, specifically
+
+There are three plausible mechanisms by which public mandate could convert into a treaty:
+
+1. **Treaty convener.** A country with the diplomatic standing to call an international process, most plausibly the UK given its Bletchley precedent.
+2. **Demonstration cascade.** One jurisdiction passes meaningful frontier restrictions and the precedent forces others to respond.
+3. **Multi-jurisdiction simultaneous pressure.** Coordinated domestic pressure in several major countries at once, making the political economics of international agreement favourable to all of them at the same moment.
+
+The federation model is designed around the third mechanism, which we believe is the most likely to produce durable outcomes. A single-country organisation, however effective, cannot produce multi-jurisdiction simultaneous pressure. A coalition of national chapters running coordinated campaigns on shared timelines, with shared messaging and shared infrastructure, can.
+
+This is the specific structural claim that distinguishes our approach from country-level advocacy. The infrastructure we are now setting up, namely the [Federation Charter](https://pauseai-global.notion.site/pauseai-federation-charter), shared training pipelines, [coordinated lobbying tools](https://activoice.org/), and rapid response protocols, is what makes this repeatable at scale.
+
+## Why now
+
+Frontier labs are now using their own models to build the next generation, and there are credible reasons to believe recursive self-improvement could cross a critical threshold within the next 12 months. AI-driven economic disruption is accelerating and public anxiety is growing fast.
+
+Without a disciplined, catastrophic-risk-focused movement ready to channel that energy, it will either dissipate or default into incoherent backlash. We are currently the only global grassroots organisation positioned to fill that gap. The infrastructure must exist before major disruptions hit, not after. We are embedding in affected communities now: students facing a transformed job market, workers facing displacement, democracy advocates. We build relationships and credibility so that when disruptions intensify, we are already trusted voices with the organisational capacity to convert unfolding events into political momentum.
+
+## What we do
+
+Our activities serve three functions: reaching new audiences, activating them into organisers who replicate the model, and converting the resulting constituency into political pressure.
+
+**Train organisers.** PauseCon conferences are our primary capacity-building tool. PauseCon Brussels (February 2026) trained ~80 organisers from 15 countries in leadership, campaign strategy and communications. Participants are already delivering independently: new chapters launched, meetings with parliamentarians secured, campaigns running. We run two PauseCons per year, each producing a cohort of trained organisers who return to their countries equipped to grow the movement locally.
+
+**Scale the federation.** We provide standardised support infrastructure for national chapters: organising playbooks, fundraising guidance, coordinated lobbying tools, and seed funding for new chapters. A [tiered model](https://pauseai-global.notion.site/pauseai-federation-charter?pvs=74) (Local group → Chapter → Independent entity) provides differentiated support based on chapter maturity, while non-negotiable standards ([core values](/values), mission, [core positions](https://pauseai-global.notion.site/core-positions), [messaging guidelines](https://pauseai-global.notion.site/core-messaging-and-talking-points), [code of conduct](/code-of-conduct)) protect the brand and the movement's integrity.
+
+**Run coordinated campaigns.** Quarterly campaigns aligned across all chapters on shared themes and timelines. Each campaign is a strategic experiment testing what resonates, which communities mobilise, and what creates political pressure. Results inform the next one. The India Summit campaign in February 2026 generated roughly 2,000 targeted emails to representatives across 14 countries and a petition with over 4,000 signatures, while testing our ability to coordinate the federation at scale.
+
+**Build coalitions.** We build two types of partnerships. Movement-building coalitions give us access to communities already affected by AI: student unions, labour organisations, parent groups, democracy and rights advocates. Policy partnerships with organisations like MIRI and ControlAI ensure we advocate for rigorous, well-designed proposals and give us somewhere to route politicians who are ready for detailed briefings.
+
+**Apply political pressure.** Grassroots lobbying across 15+ countries, tiered by volunteer commitment. Anyone can send a personalised message to their representative in under a minute using our coordinated lobbying tool. More dedicated volunteers seek in-person meetings with their local representatives. Senior staff pursue high-profile meetings and route them toward trusted policy partners for detailed briefings. Each year includes at least two coordinated global protests to signal constituency size to politicians and media.
+
+**Maintain public visibility.** CEO media appearances, conference speaking, articles, press releases, video content and a sustained social media presence position PauseAI as a recognised voice of public concern about AGI. A warning shot activation protocol enables us to convert unfolding events into political moments within hours rather than weeks.
+
+## What we don't do
+
+**We don't tolerate violence or violent rhetoric.** We are a peaceful movement and make this clear in our [Protestor's Code of Conduct](/code-of-conduct), Discord rules, and Volunteer agreement. We are the good guys, and we want the public to be on our side.
+
+**We don't take sides on unrelated issues.** We are a movement focused on an AI pause. We do not take positions on topics outside our remit, even when short-term opportunities make it tempting.
+
+**We avoid dishonesty.** We need people to trust what we say. Honesty is non-negotiable, including about our own uncertainties and limitations.
+
+## Key uncertainties
+
+We are honest that several things could go wrong, and we manage them actively rather than ignoring them.
+
+**Federation coordination.** Our model depends on chapters aligning on shared campaigns and messaging while retaining local autonomy. The Federation Charter is the structural mitigation, and its enforcement is tested with every coordinated campaign.
+
+**Capture by adjacent movements.** Public concern about AI is currently diffuse and could consolidate around frames that don't address frontier risk. Our mitigation is messaging discipline and explicit commitment to the frontier-development frame.
+
+**Warning shot judgement.** The rapid response protocol depends on calls about which events merit activation. Activating for an event that doesn't land risks crying wolf; failing to activate for one that does risks missing the window.
+
+**Measurement.** Several of our success metrics (media reach, protest attendance, petition signatures) are proxies rather than direct measures of pause probability. Building better measurement is an active priority.
+
+## Get involved
+
+The movement has hundreds of new prospective volunteers signing up every month. Our bottleneck is the capacity to train, support and empower them.

+title: UK Technology Secretary overlooks risks posed by AI

+description: PauseAI UK has criticised Technology Secretary Liz Kendall after
+ she described calls to pause AI development as a “double betrayal” of British
+ talent and interests in a speech at the Royal United Services Institute on 28
+ April.

+---
+
+PauseAI UK says the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, Liz Kendall, is overlooking the risks posed by AI systems after she said a pause would leave “this powerful technology to be exploited by other nations to their advantage and our disadvantage.”
+
+Pause advocates are not calling for Britain to abandon AI, nor for a unilateral halt while other countries race ahead. PauseAI is calling for an international agreement to pause the development of frontier systems until there is clear consensus that they can be built and governed safely. This would apply to only the most powerful AI systems, not systems designed for specific, narrow applications such as medical diagnoses.
+
+Joseph Miller, Director of PauseAI UK, said:
+
+_No serious advocate is calling for Britain to shut down its AI industry unilaterally. We are calling for an international agreement and we expect the country that hosted the Bletchley Park Summit to lead it, not duck it._
+
+_The scientific problem of making advanced AI reliably do what its operators intend remains unsolved. Hundreds of researchers, including Turing Award winners Geoffrey Hinton and Yoshua Bengio, have publicly warned that mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside pandemics and nuclear war._
+
+**AI threatens the UK’s digital sovereignty**
+
+Ms Kendall did express concerns over the concentration of AI power, acknowledging that 70 percent of global AI computational resources are controlled by just five companies.
+
+PauseAI echoes this concern: if systems are created that can automate large parts of the economy, which is the direction in which we are currently headed, unprecedented economic and political power will be concentrated among a handful of tech companies. As Ms Kendall herself said, “We must shape this technology, not just be shaped by it.”
+
+The Technology Secretary's department houses the AI Security Institute (AISI), whose recent evaluation of Anthropic's Claude Mythos [found its hacking capabilities to be unprecedented](https://www.aisi.gov.uk/blog/our-evaluation-of-claude-mythos-previews-cyber-capabilities) after it became the first model to complete its 32-step simulated corporate network attack. Kanishka Narayan, the UK’s AI minister, has said UK businesses “should be worried” about the model’s ability to spot flaws in IT systems.
+
+**AI poses unacceptable risks of catastrophe, according to a growing consensus**
+
+Professor Stuart Russell, the author of the standard textbook used in over 1,500 universities worldwide, [told MEPs in February](https://pauseai.substack.com/p/eu-parliamentarians-acknowledge-the) that “eight out of ten top AI researchers are convinced that the creation of artificial general intelligence will lead to a loss of control.”
+
+A [House of Lords Library briefing](https://lordslibrary.parliament.uk/potential-future-risks-from-autonomous-ai-systems/) notes: “Passive loss of control could occur if humans stopped exercising appropriate oversight over AI systems. This could be because the AI decisions were too opaque, complex or fast to allow for meaningful oversight.”
+
+The next meeting of the international network of AI Security Institutes, chaired by the UK, will be held in July. “We hope to see AI safety prominent on the agenda. We speak for a growing number of concerned citizens who wish to see the UK government take a leading role in bringing us closer to an AI treaty that protects us all,” Miller said.
