Global push to regulate artificial intelligence

  1. Calls for a global summit on AI regulation: With the rapid advancement of generative AI tools, regulators worldwide are seeking ways to control the potential risks of AI and hold developers accountable. A group of EU lawmakers is urging a global summit on AI regulation, while the World Economic Forum is exploring the technical, ethical, and societal implications of generative AI systems. Efforts to regulate AI are gaining momentum, with Stanford University’s AI Index showing that 37 AI-related bills were passed into law globally in 2022.
  2. Study shows generative AI boosts worker productivity: Researchers from MIT and Stanford University conducted a study on the productivity of workers using generative AI tools. The study found that workers paired with AI assistants were 14% more productive on average, particularly among novice and low-skilled employees. However, concerns about the impact of AI on jobs persist, with a majority of Americans expressing belief in AI’s significant impact on the job market.
  3. Kuwait debuts an AI news anchor: Kuwait recently introduced an AI news anchor, becoming the latest country to adopt AI technology in the media industry. The AI anchor, developed by the Kuwait News Agency, uses natural language processing and deep learning algorithms to deliver news updates in real-time. This development showcases the increasing integration of AI in various sectors.

These AI developments reflect the growing importance of regulating AI systems, exploring their impact on productivity, and witnessing their application in different fields like media. The World Economic Forum’s upcoming Growth Summit will address the future integration of AI in the workforce, including discussions on reskilling and aligning education systems with AI talent demands.
