What I'd like to see is all of the consortium members sign a pledge that none of them will sell or use their AI technology for defense/military purposes (mainly looking at you Microsoft/IBM/Amazon).

I could see how 10 years down the line, the US government tries to co-opt the group to help it in its wars. This needs to be preempted now, in the same way they should've preempted calls for encryption backdoors by adopting end-to-end encryption years before and making it the status quo, before the government even gets a chance to think about it. They mostly failed in doing that, but I hope they won't fail with this.
