'Move fast, capture attention, let somebody else clean up.' We have seen this time and again in the tech industry, and yet no lessons appear to have been learned.

We are seeing the same pattern, and the same mistakes, with AI. This time backed by more money than we can begin to imagine, and this time what gets captured is labour. Replacing human workers is not an unfortunate side effect. It is the product, and it is the explicit pitch behind the trillion-dollar valuations and the data centre buildouts. The environmental cost of running it all is barely being counted.

There is another path, one where AI stays a tool under meaningful human control rather than a replacement for the people using it, and it only happens if enough people ask for it. The Pro-Human AI Declaration sets out what that looks like.
