buffalonews.com — October 25, 2024, 08:01 AM UTC

Summary: The White House has introduced new rules for the use of artificial intelligence by U.S. national security and intelligence agencies. Signed by President Biden, the framework aims to leverage AI's benefits while addressing potential risks, such as misuse for surveillance or cyberattacks.
