Expert Analysis of Dangerous Artificial Intelligences in Government
The “real risks” of AI come from a lack of governance and risk understanding, according to Navrina Singh, CEO of Credo AI and a member of the Department of Commerce’s National AI Advisory Committee.
Of all the emerging sciences and technologies that government and private industry are working on, artificial intelligence—mostly just called AI—is one of the most promising. And a big reason for that is because AI can be designed to work in almost any role or capacity. At the most basic level, AIs using robotic process automation can accurately route mail, packages and payroll checks to thousands of destinations. Meanwhile, advanced AIs in the military are learning how to control swarms of intelligent combat drones across sprawling modern battlefields. And AIs are also being tasked with just about everything in between those extremes.
