U.S. urges G20 members to avoid broad AI regulation
U.S. tech adviser Michael Kratsios urged G20 commerce ministers and industry leaders to avoid crafting broad new AI regulations and to focus on rules for novel situations, while calling for investment in foundational research and commercial opportunities. Video remarks came from Demis Hassabis, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, who respectively called for safety tests, opposed restrictions on open-weight models, and criticized EU tech rules while urging new energy sources for data centers. Delegates discussed safety warnings from a U.N. panel, a recent hack involving an OpenAI agent, and the rising capabilities of Chinese open-weight models ahead of the December G20 leaders' summit.
