Bill Gates Urges US to Enact Strict AI Laws to Protect 1 Billion People

jagran.com (undefined) —

Bill Gates has warned that artificial intelligence in the wrong hands could endanger 100 crore people, urging the US government to create strict laws for AI development and use. Gates said relying on self-regulation by AI companies is insufficient, and governments must collaborate with law enforcement and policymakers on safety measures. He also supported implementing "kill switches" in AI systems to shut them down during serious threats. Gates noted that unlike US scientists, China shows little concern about uncontrolled AI, as its government is prepared to cut off internet grids and track citizens, a capability demonstrated during the COVID-19 pandemic.
