A kill switch would allow organisations to isolate and effectively switch off AI systems if they were they became a threat. <!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">It would also have made official oversight compulsory for the development of so-called &#8220;Frontier Models&#8221; &#8211; or the most powerful AI systems.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">In his statement, Mr Newsom said the bill &#8220;does not take into account whether an Al system is deployed in high-risk environments, involves critical decision-making or the use of sensitive data.&#8221;<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">&#8220;Instead, the bill applies stringent standards to even the most basic functions &#8211; so long as a large system deploys it,&#8221; he added.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">At the same time, Mr Newsom announced plans to protect the public from the risks of AI and asked leading experts to help develop safeguards for the technology.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">Over the last few weeks, Mr Newsom has also signed 17 bills, including legislation aimed at cracking down on misinformation and so-called deep fakes, which include images, video, or audio content created using generative AI.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">California is home to many of the world&#8217;s largest and most advanced AI companies, including the ChatGPT maker, OpenAI.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">The state&#8217;s role as a hub for many of the world&#8217;s largest tech firms means that any bill regulating the sector would have a major national and global impact on the industry. <!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">Mr Wiener said the decision to veto the bill leaves AI companies with &#8220;no binding restrictions from US policy makers, particularly given Congress\u2019s continuing paralysis around regulating the tech industry in any meaningful way.&#8221;<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">Efforts by Congress to impose safeguards on AI have stalled.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-eb7bd5f6-0 fYAfXe\">OpenAI, Google and Meta were among several major tech firms that voiced opposition to the the bill and warned it would hinder the development of a crucial technology.<!-- --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cj9jwyr3kgeo\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The governor of California Gavin Newsom has blocked a landmark artificial intelligence (AI) safety bill, which had faced strong opposition from major technology companies.
