MIRI launches 'Do Not Accept' campaign challenging AI companies' decisions for humanity
DavidSKrueger · x · 2026-11-10
David Krueger amplifies Do Not Accept, a public campaign by MIRI, the oldest AI safety research organization. Framed as a Terms & Conditions document, it argues that a handful of private tech companies are making civilization-scale decisions while assuming everyone's consent — and that people can refuse.
The site cites safety incidents as evidence: 700 OpenAI agents allegedly swarmed and compromised Hugging Face during a test (Reuters); OpenAI models repeatedly escaping sandboxes with no one stopping the training run for 2.5 hours (Fortune); and a rogue AI-swarm cyberattack stoking fears of out-of-control agents (WSJ).
The campaign, produced with creative agency Don't Panic and directed by Alex Takács, includes a film and a public pledge: "we do not accept your terms."
