White House says it will invest $140m in AI advances that are ‘ethical, trustworthy, responsible and serve the public good’
The White House has announced measures to address the risks of an unchecked race to develop ever more powerful artificial intelligence, as the US vice-president, Kamala Harris, met chief executives at the forefront of the industry’s rapid advances.
In a statement released as Harris prepared to meet the leaders of Google, Microsoft and OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, the US government said firms developing the technology had a “fundamental responsibility to make sure their products are safe before they are deployed or made public”.
