The White House has created a task force to examine AI’s risks and opportunities and recommend what role the federal government should play in overseeing the technology, according to a US media report.
The Wall Street Journal says the taskforce has been given 120 days to look at the issue, citing the head of the task force, Jay Clayton.
Clayton, who heads the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, said he would lead the group, known as the “Super Intelligence Force,” effectively serving as US President Donald Trump’s AI czar, the report said, citing a senior White House official.
The reported taskforce comes after Trump hosted a meeting of those leading the major AI companies, and after his speech to the UN decrying the need for any government regulation of the technology.
