AI is intensifying a global debate over who should control the technology

The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is intensifying a global debate over who should control the technology and how its risks should be managed.

United States (US) President Donald Trump has backed voluntary safety measures and industry self-regulation, while United Nations (UN) Secretary-General António Guterres has called for a multilateral framework to address AI-related risks.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has also called for stronger safeguards, including legislation to regulate the development and use of artificial intelligence.

At a recent UN Security Council meeting, speakers warned that increasingly powerful AI systems could pose serious risks if they are not properly managed.
