Rice argued that there is a “role” for the federal government when it comes to the AI Arms Race.
“The federal government must spend its expenditure in these boundary technologies and universities such as Stanford and MIT and places and places where many of these breakthroughs take place,” she told Fox News -anchor Martha Maccallum.
During Tuesday’s comments, VANCE also insisted on a “deregulating taste” to arise at the conference, while warning against the pitfalls of “excessive regulations” that could hinder a transforming industry. He also promised that the United States would support a Pro-Growth AI policy.
While the former State Secretary “A Pluim” A Pluim “said they” worry “that some of the regulatory impulses in Europe are the technological progress of some of the American private sector truly disturbing. “

“Do you think a minute that the Chinese who will have crashes? No. They will treat it as they have Covid. They will hide about it. They will lie about it, and so it is even another reason that the United States must be fast and fast and running hard.
Given the ‘existential nature of these transformational technologies’, Rice warned that the innovators behind the development of AI should have both knowledge and wisdom to fully exploit the opportunities that the technology offer.
