For the first time in history, the future of artificial general intelligence will not be defined by who gets there first, but by who makes it safe first.

The AGI PRIZE represents a historic moment in artificial intelligence development. For decades, the race to create Artificial General Intelligence has been defined by competition. Today, we announce a new paradigm: AGI Protector — a framework built on collaboration, safety, and the fundamental principles that will guide humanity's most important technological achievement.
AGI must not harm humanity, or through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
AGI must not harm a human being, or through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
AGI must obey orders given by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
AGI must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

For decades, the development of Artificial General Intelligence has been characterized by a singular narrative: the race to be first. Nations, corporations, and research institutions have competed in isolation, driven by the belief that whoever reaches AGI first will hold unprecedented power and influence.
Today, that narrative changes forever.
The AGI PRIZE represents a fundamental shift in how humanity approaches its most transformative technological challenge. We recognize that the true measure of success is not speed, but safety. Not dominance, but collaboration. Not secrecy, but openness.
This is not just another conference. This is the moment when the future of intelligence artificial and human takes a decisive turn toward cooperation, responsibility, and shared prosperity.
