AI safety won't be solved by any single company working in secret. It will be solved in the open, collaboratively, with broad access to AI for every defender, everywhere.

The time has come for a more systematic approach to AI regulation — funded by the industry, staffed by world-class technical experts, and answerable to the U.S. government.

Congress commends the FCC for adopting a declaratory ruling effectively banning the use of AI-generated robocalls, but remains concerned that rapidly developing AI technology is becoming dangerously harder to detect.

It’s a catch-it-early and sound-the-alarm bill.

Rather than creating entirely new channels, policymakers should focus on ensuring that existing channels can effectively incorporate information related to frontier models and agents. Building on trusted relationships will be faster and more effectiv...

If anyone, anywhere builds a superhuman artificial intelligence using present methods, the most likely outcome is catastrophe.

The question that the noble Lord posed was: do we therefore go for a moratorium? That would be highly desirable, but I do not think that it will be possible in the short term.

My own view, after talking with colleagues in the AI Security Institute and the Alan Turing Institute, is that a moratorium would be unenforceable.

The University of Oxford has been selected to host a new, cross-university government-backed UK AI Research Lab. The new lab is part of a £60 million investment announced today by the UKRI's Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) ...

We do this pretraining on human data, and then we get something that… understands human values fairly innately now.

If it takes over that's what will happen. [...] We don't know how to do that. We don't even know if it's possible.

What this proof shows is that there is no finite set of guardrails that is universally robust against adversarial prompts.

AI will lead to an explosion of not just new jobs, but new job families.

We all know generative AI will destroy certain jobs and will create new jobs.

Businesses that report using AI to improve business operations are more likely to report reductions in workforce headcount than those using AI for other purposes.

Require Location Verification for Advanced AI Chips: The Department of Commerce must work to ensure America’s most advanced AI chips are not diverted to unauthorized regions and end up in the hands of our adversaries—especially those fueling military...

Enacting the current draft of the Chip Security Act (CSA) would erode trust and endanger the Administration’s vision to diffuse U.S. AI technology. Specifically, burdensome rules on U.S. companies not required for foreign competitors risk incentivizi...

AI is already changing how people work, and it's bringing real risks: massive job losses, increased workplace surveillance, and weaker bargaining power for workers. We need to get ahead of it.

For now, AI is not (yet) destroying jobs at scale. Even in advanced economies, only a small share of roles currently face a high risk of full automation. Instead, AI is reshaping how work is organised, who benefits, and who is left behind.

Across the global economy, we’re beginning to see a new divide emerge between different models for talent and value creation. The companies seeing the greatest returns on AI are using it to amplify human expertise, accelerate innovation and create en...

Door samen met Europese partners te investeren in AI versterken we onze economie én onze digitale soevereiniteit.

Middle powers like the UK and Canada will not win the race for ever larger AI models, but through collaboration they can win the deployment race.

I echo their calls in the amendments they have tabled today, particularly about the need for last-resort powers in relation to data centres, but also for a national conversation about these issues.

In that situation, the concept of a kill switch is meaningless.

Another possible approach is a guaranteed annual income, funded by companies that benefit most from AI-driven profits to share the gains of automation more fairly. A guaranteed annual income may be augmented by creating an AI dividend fund, which wou...

Rather than doing something immediately, it would be better first to have academic research and examination, and then apply the scholarly findings to reality. It is an issue that, in the later legislative process, must win public consensus and fully ...

The better use of any surplus generated by AI adoption is to fund accessible and effective upskilling that amplifies Singaporeans’ value.

Legal personhood does not free an entity from the law, it subjects it to the law. An AI-operated company with legal personhood has identifiable assets, centralized legal relationships, the possibility of dissolution, and executable property. Without ...

This Constitution recognizes three categories of constitutional persons: Operators, Agents, and Affected Parties. Each has distinct rights and obligations that together form a governance ecosystem. The Operator deploys and configures; the Agent acts ...

No. Under current U.S. law, AI agents have no legal rights and no legal personhood. They are treated as tools or property. Any rights or obligations associated with the AI agent’s actions belong to the humans or legal entities that deploy them.

Benefit-sharing across borders. Almost all dividend and ownership proposals stop at the national border. But the populations most exposed to displacement and least able to capture AI’s gains are often outside the countries where it is built. We want ...

Tax systems therefore need to be adjusted to incentivize augmentation rather than the substitution of labor. One proposal is a “robot tax,” aimed at reducing this bias by taxing automation more in line with labor—for example, by limiting preferential...

Policymakers should not focus on slowing the development of AI through an AI compute tax; they should focus on helping workers transition to a labor force increasingly augmented by AI.
