US Organizers AI Safety Summit in Response to Trump's Policy Reversal
SAN Francisco: Leaders from more than thirty nations came together in the United States this week to address artificial intelligence (AI) safety in San Francisco.
Leaders from more than thirty nations came together in the United States this week to address artificial intelligence (AI) safety in San Francisco. Attaching the summit with delegates from Australia, Japan, Kenya, Singapore, and members of the European Union, the agenda included addressing AI-generated fraud, deepfakes, and usage in worldwide security concerns. Gina Raimondo, U.S. Commerce Secretary, underlined the importance of responsible artificial intelligence development and cautioned of hazards like unemployment and social disturbance. Safety precautions, she underlined, inspire creativity since they build trust. Trust speeds acceptance.
The vow of President-elect Donald Trump to revoke President Joe Biden's executive order on artificial intelligence safety cast shadows over the conference. Trump said the approach enforced "Radical Leftwing ideas" and attacked it as stifling innovation. Although Trump's administration has not said exactly what changes he will bring about, analysts think the U.S. AI Safety Institute, set under Biden, will probably carry on its operations independent of political changes. Prominent companies including Google, Microsoft, and Meta have mostly backed Biden's voluntary guidelines, therefore encouraging Congress to guarantee the Institute's long-term existence.
Following the publication of ChatGPT in 2022, the worldwide AI market exploded and generated questions regarding the possible usage of generative artificial intelligence. Along with analysts like as Heather West of the Center for European Policy Analysis, Raimondo emphasized the bipartisan relevance of artificial intelligence safety. "This is bigger than politics," Raimondo added, pushing cooperation to stop malevolent actors from using AI. With projects now under way in several nations, the conference followed a May agreement among world leaders in South Korea to enhance AI safety through international collaborations.
