Rajya Sabha member P. Wilson has called for Parliaments across the world to ensure that powerful Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are developed only if their effects will be positive and their risks manageable.
Speaking at the 2nd World Summit of the Committees of Future held in Uruguay, on the role of Parliament in the Democracy of the Future, Mr. Wilson — on behalf of the Indian Parliamentary delegation — said on September 27 that there was an urgent need for all governments to adopt an AI regulatory framework. It should be applicable across sectors.
Mr. Wilson said AI has been redefining society in ways that had never been anticipated. While welcoming the technology, it could not be ignored that AI also posed a great threat, he said.
