According to CoinMeta, Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft, stated in the program “Meet with the Media” that he does not want the United States to slow down innovation in artificial intelligence (AI), but believes that as technology develops, regulation must be strengthened. He refuted the simplistic view that a simple “off switch” would be sufficient to manage future risks, pointing out that current systems have not yet taken over computers in a way that humans cannot stop. Gates called for the establishment of laws requiring companies to closely monitor advanced AI models and to maintain detailed records. He is concerned that powerful AI models could be used for cyberattacks or bioterrorism, warning that such actions could lead to catastrophic loss of life, with potential consequences amounting to “billion deaths.” He believes that the United States should establish stronger regulatory standards while maintaining rapid innovation, rather than implementing widespread slowdowns.
