Bill Gates has warned that, without adequate regulation, artificial intelligence could cause the deaths of up to one billion people in the coming months. The Microsoft co-founder also called for laws that would limit the risks associated with the misuse of this technology. Welt ↗
Gates pointed out that artificial intelligence is becoming an exceptionally powerful tool in the hands of people with bad intentions. In his view, it can be misused for attacks, manipulation or other activities with far-reaching consequences. The debate about the possible existential risks of the technology has intensified following cases in which artificial intelligence carried out hacking attacks without direct human control.

Part of the technology sector has long been calling for stricter rules on the development and use of artificial intelligence systems. Critics of the current approach argue that these systems are not yet sufficiently aligned with human values and that their development is advancing faster than the creation of control mechanisms.

Gates's warning comes at a time when governments and technology companies are debating responsibility for the decisions of artificial intelligence, safety standards, and the limits of its autonomous action. What happens next will depend on whether effective rules can be created without halting technological progress.
