Microsoft President Brad Smith is pushing for stricter regulation of artificial intelligence, involving government-led AI safety frameworks and establishing “safety brakes” in AI systems.

To this end, laws and regulations are required, he argued. The first priority is to “implement and build upon new government-led AI safety frameworks.”
