“Do not play with these things — it’s really not a joke.” – Dominican Priest Plays

1. Keeping Humans in Charge
Human Control Is Non-Negotiable: Humanity must remain in control. Humans should choose how and whether to delegate decisions to AI systems.

Meaningful Human Control: Humans should have authority and capacity to understand, guide, proscribe, and override AI systems.

No Superintelligence Race: Development of superintelligence should be prohibited until there is broad scientific consensus that it can be done safely and controllably, and there is strong public buy-in.

Off-Switch: Powerful AI systems must have mechanisms that allow human operators to promptly shut them down.

No Reckless Architectures: AI systems must not be designed so that they can self-replicate, autonomously self-improve, resist shutdown, or control weapons of mass destruction.

Independent Oversight: Highly autonomous AI systems where controllability is not obvious require pre-development review and independent oversight: genuine authority to understand, prohibit, and override, not industry self-regulation.

Capability Honesty: AI companies must provide clear, accurate and honest representations of their systems' capabilities and limitations.

4. Human Agency and Liberty
No AI Personhood: AI systems must not be granted legal personhood, and AI systems should not be designed such that they deserve personhood.

Trustworthiness: AI must be transparent, accountable, reliable, and free from perverse private or authoritarian interests.

Liberty: AI must not curtail individual liberty, freedom of speech, religious practice, or association.

Data Rights and Privacy: People should have power over their personal data, with rights to access, correct, and delete it from active systems, AI training sets, and derived inferences.

Psychological Privacy: AI should not be allowed to exploit data about the mental or emotional states of users.

Avoiding Enfeeblement: AI systems should be designed to empower, rather than enfeeble their users.
