Future of Life, a non-profit organization, published a letter in which SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, philanthropist Andrew Yang, and about a thousand other artificial intelligence researchers called for an "immediate suspension" of the training of AI systems "more powerful than GPT-4"

The letter, issued by the non-profit Future of Life Institute called for a pause on advanced AI development until shared safety protocols for such designs were developed, implemented and audited by independent experts

The letter also detailed potential risks to society and civilization by human-competitive AI systems in the form of economic and political disruptions, and called on developers to work with policymakers on governance and regulatory authorities
