The U.S. is falling behind in regulating artificial intelligence (AI), while Europe has passed the world's first comprehensive AI law; President Joe Biden recently met with industry leaders to discuss the need for AI regulation and companies pledged to develop safeguards for AI-generated content and prioritize user privacy.
The executive order announced by President Biden restricts US venture capital and private equity investments in sensitive Chinese tech sectors, potentially ending foreign investment in areas such as chips and AI in China.
The U.S. has expanded export restrictions of Nvidia artificial-intelligence chips beyond China to other regions, including some countries in the Middle East, citing national security concerns.
Countries around the world, including Australia, China, the European Union, France, G7 nations, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Spain, the UK, the UN, and the US, are taking various steps to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and address concerns related to privacy, security, competition, and governance.
Governments worldwide are grappling with the challenge of regulating artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, as countries like Australia, Britain, China, the European Union, France, G7 nations, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Spain, the United Nations, and the United States take steps to establish regulations and guidelines for AI usage.
China's new artificial intelligence (AI) rules, which are among the strictest in the world, have been watered down and are not being strictly enforced, potentially impacting the country's technological competition with the U.S. and influencing AI policy globally; if maximally enforced, the regulations could pose challenges for Chinese AI developers to comply with, while relaxed enforcement and regulatory leniency may still allow Chinese tech firms to remain competitive.
Intel's AI chips designed for Chinese clients are experiencing high demand as Chinese companies rush to improve their capabilities in ChatGPT-like technology, leading to increased orders from Intel's supplier TSMC and prompting Intel to place more orders; the demand for AI chips in China has surged due to the race by Chinese tech firms to build their own large language models (LLMs), but US export curbs have restricted China's access to advanced chips, creating a black market for smuggled chips.
