Tech leaders call for six-month halt on advanced AI development.

Citing existential risks and the need for safety protocols, the letter sparked intense debate about AI governance. Critics dismissed it as fear-mongering or competitive maneuvering, while supporters warned of unchecked technological acceleration.
