Over 200 scientists, political leaders and cultural figures have signed a global appeal to set boundaries on AI use. The Global Call for AI Red Lines initiative aims to establish an international agreement on applications that should never be pursued.

Signatories include Nobel laureates, former heads of state, and leading AI researchers such as Geoffrey Hinton, Ian Goodfellow and Yoshua Bengio. OpenAI co-founder Wojciech Zaremba, authors Yuval Noah Harari and Stephen Fry.

Supporters argue that unchecked AI development risks destabilising societies and violating human rights. Consensus is urgently needed to prohibit applications threatening democracy, security, or public safety.
