Google chief calls for regulations on artificial intelligence

The chief executive of Google company, Sundar Picihai, has called on Monday for a more balanced approach to artificial intelligence regulations, telling the European audience that technology has benefits, but also “negative consequences”.

His comments come at a time when lawmakers and governments are seriously considering ways to limit the use of artificial intelligence.

I have no doubt that artificial intelligence has to be adjusted. The question is how to get the best access to that”, Pichai said among other things.

He has stressed that governments have a major role in the issue, as the European Union, as the United States should start drafting regulations on this issue.

In 2018, Google has pledged not to use artificial intelligence on weapons-related applications, observations that violate international norms or jobs that violate human rights. /tch
