China's Minister of State Security, Chen Yixin, today called for the creation of a "security barrier" around artificial intelligence, given the growing concerns in Beijing and Washington about the political and social risks associated with this technology.
China has been implementing new domestic regulations to supervise algorithms, deepfakes, and chatbot services, reflecting its concern about the impact of AI on the country's social and political stability.
The call comes in the context of similar alerts in the United States, where authorities and technology companies have also expressed growing concerns about the potential dangers of advanced artificial intelligence.
The creation of a "security barrier" aims to establish limits and controls that allow for the benefits of AI to be harnessed while mitigating the risks identified by both superpowers.
