AI Company Workers Ask US Government to Regulate Their Own Industry

More than 1,100 employees from leading AI companies — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Meta — signed a petition asking the US government to support international limits on how fast AI is developed. Bloomberg reported the story on July 28, 2026. The workers warn that AI could become too complex for humans to understand or control, and want the government, not their employers, to oversee it.
