Artificial intelligence could be the „most consequential technology of our time,“ President Joe Biden said at an executive order signing ceremony on Monday.
Two days before Vice President Kamala Harris is set to participate in the world’s first global summit on artificial intelligence (AI) safety, President Joe Biden signed an executive order that he described as the „most significant action any government anywhere in the world has ever taken on AI safety, security and trust.“
Biden officially introduced the executive order Monday afternoon at the White House. In remarks he delivered before signing the order, Biden described AI as the „most consequential technology of our time“ and predicted the world will see more advances in technological innovation over the next decade than it has in the last 50 years.
„One thing is clear: To realize the promise of AI and avoid the risks, we need to govern this technology,“ Biden said.
