This paper proposes a Multinational Artificial General Intelligence Consortium (MAGIC) to mitigate existential risks from advanced artificial intelligence (AI). MAGIC would be the only institution in the world permitted to develop advanced AI, enforced through a global moratorium by its signatory members on all other advanced AI development. MAGIC would be exclusive, safety-focused, highly secure, and collectively supported by member states, with benefits distributed equitably among signatories. MAGIC would allow narrow AI models to flourish while significantly reducing the possibility of misaligned, rogue, breakout, or runaway outcomes of general-purpose systems. We do not address the political feasibility of implementing a moratorium or address the specific legislative strategies and rules needed to enforce a ban on high-capacity AGI training runs. Instead, we propose one positive vision of the future, where MAGIC, as a global governance regime, can lay the groundwork for long-term, safe regulation of advanced AI.

翻译：本文提出建立跨国通用人工智能联盟（MAGIC），以降低先进人工智能带来的存在性风险。MAGIC将成为全球唯一获准开发先进人工智能的机构，通过签署国对全球其他所有先进人工智能开发实施暂停令来强制执行。该联盟将具有排他性、以安全为核心、高度安全且由成员国共同支持，其收益在签署国间公平分配。MAGIC允许狭义人工智能模型蓬勃发展，同时大幅降低通用系统出现失调、失控、突破或失控结果的可能性。本文不探讨实施暂停令的政治可行性，也不涉及禁止高能力AGI训练所需的具体立法策略与规则。相反，我们提出一个积极的未来愿景：MAGIC作为全球治理机制，可为先进人工智能的长期安全监管奠定基础。
