Expert opinions on Ethics

What we are missing is what happens after the AI is deployed. Who is going to monitor it? Who is going to be accountable for that? Who is going to contain the AI's skills? [...] What should be done in a very short time is to invest in building that c...

Agentic AI requires a different model, one where leadership defines direction, systems enforce boundaries, and accountability is explicit.

The right way to do this is if a model, before it is released in open weights or in other ways, a model should be tested. Can it be used by people? Are we sure we’re not going to lose control of it? Does it have the capabilities or intentions that co...

Restricting access to a dual-use AI model is precautionary only if it delays harmful actors more than defenders. That condition varies across actors: a state agency or organized criminal group may obtain a substitute through theft, distillation, inte...

Shared access to open-source AI systems is important for protection in a world where AI can be used to hack into electronic systems, like voting systems and benefits infrastructure.

AI companions — including those products that allow or even cater to younger users — should not be used by anyone under the age of 18 years.

Children have given us a clear diagnosis of the problem. They aren't asking us to block AI innovation, but it shouldn't be a case of cleaning up the mess after harm has happened either.

But would I ban it for minors? There are many positive uses that we can imagine for kids with chatbots, and my concern is just the kind of “yes to this, no to that” world we can get into with bans.

MAP-AI, a new control-plane system architecture for aligned decision-making under uncertainty, enforces alignment through Monte Carlo estimation of outcome distributions and admissibility-controlled policy selection rather than static model-level con...

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.

The panel cautions that there is no scientific guarantee that autonomous agents will follow their instructions and that evidence of them departing is already accumulating. Accountability and oversight must therefore be built by design and not reconst...

Large language models simply shouldn’t be used for targeting, since they will inevitably hallucinate and contribute to civilian harm.

The Government strongly believes that there is a need to maintain meaningful human control of all weapons systems, including any systems that may be developed. Our position is that, for such systems to comply with international humanitarian law, cont...

I need a reliable, steady partner that gives me something, that'll work with me on autonomous, because someday it'll be real and we're starting to see earlier versions of that.

Pause AI development. It is not too late to avoid disaster. Stop building machines that humans cannot control ... Let me be very clear: If you do not take appropriate action now, my colleagues and I in the U.S. Senate will.

But we don't think it makes sense for us to stop engaging with AI research, AI safety, and most likely lose relevance as an innovator who understands the frontier of the technology, in a scenario where others are going ahead and we're not actually co...

Employers should never allow AI to make final employment decisions without human review, because the business remains responsible for discriminatory, inaccurate, or unfair outcomes even when a third-party vendor provides the tool.

Hence, under the overarching ambit of the National AI Council and together with tripartite partners, we are studying the use of AI tools by businesses and its impact on employment, before deciding the most appropriate approach for Singapore.

The requirement of human review is one of the most burdensome compliance elements for employers, particularly in comparison to states that allow alternative processes rather than human review.

Governor Pritzker does not believe big tech companies should ever be given a full shield that evades responsibilities they should have to protect the public interest.

Existing legal principles, such as under tort and contract law, can be applied by our courts to assess and determine liability in appropriate cases. That being said, we share the concerns raised by the Member, and will continue to study this issue, i...

States should not be permitted to penalize AI developers for a third party’s unlawful conduct involving their models.

The Global Dialogue on Artificial Intelligence Governance is the first platform under a United Nations General Assembly mandate where Member States and all relevant stakeholders convene on AI governance.

More important than that is recognizing that the harm comes from three things: the absence of consent, the collapse of context and the exercise of power.

A handful of bills introduced this year seek to categorically ban “deepfakes.” In other words, these bills would make it unlawful to create or share AI-generated content depicting someone saying or doing something that the person did not in reality s...

All AI systems considered a clear threat to the safety, livelihoods and rights of people are banned. The AI Act prohibits individual criminal offence risk assessment or prediction.

Officers across England and Wales will spend less time behind desks and more time protecting their communities, as the government today launches PoliceAI – a new national centre dedicated to the responsible development, piloting and scaling of artifi...

The study advocates for establishing a new category of “electronic agents” endowed with limited rights and strict liabilities, designed to facilitate legal interactions without undermining human dignity or rights.

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 ...

The study concludes that extending legal personhood to AI remains premature and that adaptive governance frameworks are more appropriate for managing future AI-related legal challenges.

I would like to see a CERN for AI [...] where all the top scientists come together and see whether they can make a super intelligence. And, if they can, they contain it into a system where it can't just go out and persuade people to let it run the wo...

I call on the governments of the world to take immediate action to end this danger by permanently banning the development of artificial general intelligence and machine superintelligence.
