Bessent: Letting others set AI rules is real threat

 United States Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Monday that foreign governments should not shape global artificial intelligence (AI) rules, criticizing efforts to involve international voices.

"The real threat to AI safety is letting any nation other than the United States set the global standard," Bessent wrote on X, adding the US is home to "the most talented AI researchers in the world." "Instead of harnessing American innovation, Senator [Bernie] Sanders is inviting foreign nationals to tell the United States how to regulate AI," he stressed.

Last Friday, Sanders said "uncontrolled AI poses a severe danger to all of humanity" and announced he will host a discussion on Wednesday with US and Chinese scientists on international cooperation.
