We Have the Power to Pause AI
PauseAI US represents the 70% of Americans who want to pause or slow down dangerous AI development. AI companies are racing to build a technology that could cause mass unemployment, catastrophic accidents, and even human extinction. Most people agree superhuman AI is dangerous. We help organize to stop it.
Join us to protect the world from dangerous AI.

Support the AI Risk Evaluation Act
There is a bipartisan Senate bill, currently in Congress, that would create the first nationwide AI safety testing laws. The new law would monitor for dangerous AI behavior like deception, self-replication, bioweapon creation, and losing human control.

Join a Local Group
PauseAI US has a network of local groups across the country who engage their communities, organized under a Local Group Leader. We contact lawmakers to support AI safety legislation, educate the public, collect petitions, and build community to inspire American citizens to take action and pause dangerous AI development.
Join your local group, or apply to lead one in your city!
What I want you and the world to pay attention to is how unacceptable it is that this decision is in their hands. It is our right as citizens of the world not to be under threat from AI experiments.
We aren’t marching to beg the AI companies to be merciful and spare our lives — we are marching to show the world that we don’t have to lay down and accept our unelected overlords. The right and the power to curb dangerous AI development is already ours!
