Raw LLM Responses

The Take Action took less than 30 seconds and I endorse the message they drafted for me: I am a constituent living in Texas and I am writing to express my deep concerns about the very real risk of extinction from AI. This is an urgent issue that requires immediate attention and action from our elected representatives. The leaders in the field of artificial intelligence have issued alarming warnings regarding the extinction risk from AI, particularly driven by the development of what experts refer to as 'superintelligence'. The Center for AI Safety has stated, "Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war." This open statement has garnered the signatures of the top experts in AI, including Nobel Prize and Turing Award winners, reinforcing the gravity of the situation. It is particularly troubling to note that the explicit aim of several well-funded AI companies is to develop superintelligence. With such significant concerns raised by the most credible voices in the field, it is disheartening that we are not seeing decisive legislative action to address these warnings. The frequency and consistency of these concerns demand our attention and response. While advanced AI holds the potential for transformative benefits across many sectors, the creation of systems with intelligence that far exceeds human capability poses irreversible and potentially catastrophic risks. We must strike a balance between innovation and safety, recognizing that the cost of negligence could be too high. Public sentiment reflects a clear urgency for action, with 64% of people expressing the desire to slow down AI progress and 58% supporting a ban on the development of smarter-than-human AIs. The time to address the risk of extinction from AI is now, and I implore you to take action. I urge you to publicly call for new laws to protect us from the threat posed by the development of superintelligent AI systems. Moreover, I encourage you to form a bipartisan coalition of legislators aimed at banning superintelligence to ensure the safety of our society and future generations. Thank you for your attention to this critical matter. William Kiely Texas
