White House working group on AI – Statement from FLI's Anthony Aguirre

The Future of Life Institute's Anthony Aguirre has responded to a White House working group on AI, reading the move as an acknowledgment that Big Tech cannot self-regulate and that the current trajectory is not acceptable. The statement is notable for its directness, coming from an organization that has long argued that voluntary commitments from industry are structurally insufficient. Whether the working group produces binding mechanisms or remains advisory will determine whether this marks a genuine shift in US governance.
