This is something. 🤯

1，132 frontier lab AI researchers are asking the U.S. government to slow down automated AI development.

They are from OpenAI， Anthropic， Google， Meta， Thinking Machines， Microsoft， and Mistral.

Their concern is recursive self-improvement， with models automating more AI research by writing experiments， running evaluations， analysing failures， and proposing further improvements.

Once much of that loop becomes machine-run， each model could shorten the work needed to build a stronger successor.

So the petition asks for international monitoring and governance tools that could coordinate a slowdown before competitive pressure makes one impossible.
