US hosts international talks on AI safety as Trump vows to reverse Biden's policies

sun-sentinel.com November 20, 2024, 08:01 PM UTC

The U.S. is hosting international talks on AI safety in San Francisco, focusing on issues like detecting AI-generated deepfakes. This meeting follows a global summit in May where leaders agreed to establish safety institutes for AI research. President-elect Donald Trump has pledged to repeal President Biden's AI policies, including the AI Safety Institute. However, he has not specified his concerns about these initiatives or what changes he would implement. Despite the political shift, experts believe that technical discussions on AI safety will continue. Trump's past actions on AI policy show some continuity, as he previously signed an executive order promoting AI research during his presidency.
