Pro-Human Declaration Assembles Responsible AI Framework

The Pro-Human Declaration, finalized before a late‑February Pentagon–Anthropic standoff, was published by a bipartisan coalition and signed by hundreds outlining five pillars for responsible AI development. It proposes measures including mandatory pre-deployment testing for child-facing systems, legal accountability, mandatory off-switches, and a temporary ban on superintelligence until scientific consensus and democratic approval. The document aims to fill U.S. regulatory gaps exposed by recent defense-industry disputes.
