Trump to create 'AI Force' to monitor technology as fears over out-of-control agents grow

Trump to create'AI Force' to monitor technology as fears over out-of-control agents grow Donald Trump on Saturday said he would appoint an artificial intelligence czar and create an "AI Force" to help monitor the technology, though he gave almost no details about either plan. As global fears over AI have grown, especially in the past week in the face of multiple industry figures sounding the alarm about its dangers, the president has been critical of calls to slow down development of the fast-moving industry. The creation of a czar and a new AI body in the US appears a response to critics of his stance, which in part is born out of a fear that China will best the US in AI development if the industry in America does not continue its rapid growth.
