I think it might be interesting to find better slogans.

As you mentioned, the average person doesn't care about AGI. Those that do believe the world might end this century usually think it's too late already.

AI is a threat to a lot of closer term status quos (statuses quo?).

Do you want an AI to read your resume ? Do you want an AI to answer your 911 calls ? Do you want an AI to drive your taxi off a bridge? Do you want your lawyer to parrot chatGPT ? Do you want AI art in museums ?

No to self-crashing cars !

Real humans, real jobs !

AI kills the planet !

ChatGPT = 500 million cars !

It just writes itself. "Just don't build AGI" has to be explained for like 10 minutes, and it can't be sung.
