Here’s How The U.S. May Regulate Artificial Intelligence
The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has not only offered new developments in technology and science but also prompted concerns regarding its impact on commerce and privacy, among other issues. For that reason, the United States is exploring the actions it can take with an AI advisory committee that will continue to inform the government of new developments in artificial intelligence as the technology develops. AI can solve a wide range of problems, from uncovering the identities of anonymous internet users to even predicting the weather with astounding success. The question arises: what should artificial intelligence be used for, and how should the United States regulate it?
For private technology companies, the answer to these questions is simple. Artificial intelligence can permit computer processes to succeed in scenarios where they otherwise would be impossible, and companies — like Meta — hope to capitalize on its potential. Meta, the parent company of Facebook, aims to use artificial intelligence to power its metaverse. The proposed technology is human-level AI, which means it would be autonomous to the point where it could observe its environment and learn from it. A computer that is intelligent enough to adapt to new situations without direct human involvement could solve key problems but could also create them. That's precisely why the United States is planning to regulate artificial intelligence and create a national agenda for the technology.
