Donald Trump on AI: US President Donald Trump has said in his recent interview that there should be a ‘kill switch’ for AI. He believes that Artificial Intelligence (AI) may pose some threats to the banking system. Although this technology can make the banking system even better and safer, its danger cannot be ignored.
There should be a ‘kill switch’ for AI: Trump
Trump’s interview with “Mornings with Maria” was recorded Tuesday, Reuters reported. When asked whether the government needed to have some safeguards, i.e. a “kill switch” on AI technology, he replied: “Absolutely there should.” This means that Trump thinks it is necessary for AI to have a kill switch.
Dangers cannot be ignored
He says that companies should ensure that this progress in AI does not create such a situation that humanity itself becomes a threat. Trump also said that AI has the ability to make sectors like banking very safe and effective. But we cannot ignore the dangers associated with it.
Questions are being raised on Anthropic’s new AI model
Donald Trump said this when cyber security experts warned this week that Anthropic’s new AI model Mythos could accelerate complex cyber attacks even more and create major challenges for the banking industry due to its outdated technology systems.
If you do not know, then let us tell you that Anthropic has deployed Mythos for about 40 companies, the purpose of which is to identify the shortcomings present in the software, which can make them easy targets of cyber attacks. Anthropic has made it clear that they are keeping a close eye on Mythos.
What is kill switch?
Let us tell you that kill switch is a mechanism for safety and security. It is used when a system, program and technology has to be shut down immediately in an emergency. For example, if your smartphone is stolen and you have a special remote to lock it. By pressing a button on the remote, your phone can be turned off or locked from anywhere so that a thief cannot misuse it. Kill switches also work in a similar way for programs, technologies, and systems.
