The Wheel
All of humanity. It is travelling at three hundred kilometres per hour. It is dark outside. We cannot see the road. We did not choose to board. We cannot get off.
The drivers — the AI labs, the tech companies, the investors — are accelerating. They tell us they are building a better destination. Perhaps some believe it. But they cannot see the road any more clearly than we can. The difference is that they are making money on the speed, regardless of where the bus ends up.
A few of us have seen what is ahead. We are on our feet, jumping, screaming at the drivers to slow down. Waving our arms. Begging for the brakes. We are ignored.
We turn to the politicians — the one group with the authority to make the bus stop. They are asleep in their seats.
As we scream, the drivers walk down the aisle and slip dollars into the politicians' pockets. No one is coming.
The passengers bear the risk.
Putting your name here is putting your hand on the wheel.

Each runs a lab building the most powerful AI on earth.
Each has said, on the record, that the technology may end us.
Each is, right now, building it faster.
"If you know the incentive, you can predict the outcome.
And we know the incentive."
