A senior White House advisor has called for the US and China to join forces and collaborate on drawing up artificial intelligence technical and safety standards, Inc reported.
US officials are growing increasingly concerned that the Chinese military could use advanced technologies for everything from codebreaking to developing new weapons, the story went on, prompting calls from the US for some agreement on international standards.
Arati Prabhakar, director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, said the US has reached out to China, adding: “We understand that we’re in a moment where American leadership in the world depends on American leadership in AI.”
