NEW RULES FOR US NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCIES BALANCE AI'S PROMISE WITH NEED TO PROTECT AGAINST RISKS

The framework signed by President Joe Biden and announced Thursday is designed to ensure that national security agencies can access the latest and most powerful AI while also mitigating its misuse.

But there are risks to the technology’s use by government, including possibilities it could be harnessed for mass surveillance, cyberattacks or even lethal autonomous devices.
