"Biden seeks Obama's expertise in shaping AI policies and safety measures"

Experts have expressed concerns that the Biden administration's plan to establish an AI safety commission may not be sufficient to address the potential risks associated with AI technology. While the commission aims to ensure the safety and trustworthiness of AI systems, experts argue that the focus should also be on user behavior and procedures. They suggest that tech providers should be required to provide safety procedures for users, similar to how banks provide KYC procedures to prevent money laundering. Critics have highlighted various pitfalls of AI, including deepfake technology, security breaches, and political bias in the safety approval process.
