Celebrity and Expert Coalition Calls for AI Development Pause

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have aligned with artificial intelligence pioneers and Nobel laureates in urging a ban on superintelligent AI systems, according to reports from the Future of Life Institute (FLI). The statement, signed by numerous high-profile figures, calls for prohibiting the development of artificial superintelligence (ASI) until there is broad scientific agreement on safe and controllable creation and strong public support. This marks a significant escalation in the global dialogue about AI governance, with the FLI previously advocating for a hiatus on powerful AI systems in 2023.
