President Biden jokingly declared “I am the AI” Friday as he pushed for regulations to govern the use of artificial intelligence.
“If any of you think I’m Abe Lincoln, blame it on the AI,” the 80-year-old president added before turning to his call for new rules.
Biden warned that unfettered AI could pose a threat “to our democracy” and noted that he in February signed an order forbidding the development of algorithms that “discriminate” based on a person’s race.
“We must be clear-eyed and vigilant about the threats emerging technologies can pose — don’t have to — but can pose to our democracy and our values,” Biden said alongside seven tech leaders at the White House.
