U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said this is the nation’s first strategy to harness the power of AI and manage challenges to advance national security in the face of ever-evolving adversaries.
More and more countries are tightening their grip on AI.
According to the memorandum, U.S. security agencies will monitor, assess, and mitigate AI-related risks such as privacy breaches, bias and discrimination, and personal and organizational safety. In addition, the United States plans to strengthen cooperation with allies to ensure that AI is developed and used in accordance with international law.
Late last year, US President Joe Biden also signed a sweeping executive order on AI, which is expected to involve collaboration with a global legal platform on AI. At a low level, lawmakers in many U.S. states are working on their own state AI laws. President Xi Jinping of China proposed the Global AI Governance Initiative. Alternatively, organizations such as Brazil and Japan, as well as the UN and G7, are developing AI-related laws.
In fact, while AI is an explosive development that brings many benefits, it also poses many risks, especially deepfake technology (fake deep), which is increasingly spreading false information.
Regarding AI control, European Union (EU) lawmakers also passed the final phase of the AI Control Act in March. AI law in the EU aims, above all, to control possible risks by protecting consumers.
