Crucially, unlike the government amendments in group 1, Amendment 84 is not a blank cheque for executive overreach. On the contrary, this power would operate as a strictly bounded, three-layer lock. Furthermore, catastrophic risk does not require a hostile nation-state. It requires only the sudden, unpredictable failure mode of an autonomous agentic AI operating at machine speed, as we have seen with Mythos and GPT-5. When commercial giants are racing full speed ahead and ignoring their own safety milestones, the state must possess the sovereign backstop of a legal kill switch. By establishing this transparent, court-backed emergency power in primary legislation, Amendment 84 would provide a strong statutory safety net for the AI age.
