Comment by Toby Walsh

Scientia Professor of Artificial Intelligence
“Every time there’s an aviation accident, independent inspectors go in and find out what happened, so that everyone can learn and not make that same mistake again. We could do the same with AI because it’s advancing rapidly and we need to make it as safe as possible. [...] So we need to cooperate internationally … in terms of perhaps reporting of incidents and sharing of information that doesn't mean that we have to regulate internationally. [...] Similarly here, we're relying at the moment on the goodwill of these companies to report what's going on.”
