Today, on the A I daily brief, two apex about why either of the presidential candidates is the Better for artificial intelligence, the AI daily brief is a daily podcast and video about the most important news and discussions in A I to join the conversation. Fall the discard link in our show notes.

Hello, friends, this is finally time. The U. S. Presidential elections are, after many long months, coming to ahead this week. And so this week, for long street sunday, i'm pulling two doing ope's publishing news week about why commoner Harris on the one hand, or Donald trump on the other, would be the Better choice for artificial intelligence.

The first essay is by amy field mire, a former senior policy advisor, device president, commoner Harris, and is called the commoner Harris the right president for the age of ai. I'm going to ick IT over to A I me now from eleven labs to read this piece. Kala Harris, the right president for the age of A I vertical bar opinion.

California governor Gavin newsome recently halted controversial legislation that would have required safety testing for some artificial intelligence A I models before their public release. One take away, regulating this high stakes technology may simply be too big a task for state governments. Governing A I will require a national effort LED by decisive leaders, including america's next president.

I've seen first one how one candidate thinks about A I as senior policy adviser, device president kala Harris. I saw close how the democratic nominee, president, approaches this complex issue. SHE is studious and scrutinising, thero and pragmatics skeets ticals of dogma and focused on results as in everything he does.

Her primary concern is the real data experiences of people. One moment for my White house ten year illustrates this approach. Months after powerful new tools like ChatGPT had set off seismic waves of x in washington and beyond, Harris gathered a small group of consumer advocates and labor leaders in her office to discuss artificial intelligence. He wanted to hear first hand about how regular people were grappling with the fast technology. I watched as the vice president survey the leaders, asking each what most worried their constituents, workers, patients, older americans, students, women.

They voice concern about how A I surveilLance systems surveilled in scored factory workers, how ROE algorithms have kick sick patients off their health care benefits, how scammers had built thousands of dollars from seniors by using tech to impersonate their grandchildren's voices, and how teenage girls had been devastated after their faces were imposed on explicit, deep fake images. Harris was well acquainted with these issues as california torney general SHE had established the country's first privacy protection unit, prosecuting hackers who stolen and sold intimate images online and striking a global agreement with top tech platforms to adopt new rules for protecting users personal information. As the meeting wound down, the vice president made a promise he would do all he could do, ensure that pioneering technologies empowered and did not harm americans.

In the months that followed, the vice president worked across the government to tackle the problems raised. In that meeting, president joe yan developed and then signed an executive order addressing problems with tenants, Greening algorithms, automated worker surveilLance tools and synthetic content like voice cloning. These initiatives, alongside the administrations efforts to maintain america's A I edge over china and give small businesses the resources to compete in the emerging A I market, responded directly to the concerns of the person who had been listening in that meeting with civil society leaders.

The vice president of the united states, I thought back to this chapter last months, is Harris laid out a detailed agenda to make life Better for the U. S. Middle class.

The daughter of a research scientist, the vice president spent some of her formative years living and working in the bay area, the cradle of american innovation. SHE often shares how these experiences showed her the power of technology to help solve humanity s most complex problems from curing stubb diseases to strengthen ing america's national defense. At the same time, he has warned that without clear guard rails, such tools can fall short of their potential.

This approach and innovation forward people centered balancing act has come alive in Harris record on technology issues as vice president last november, SHE related world leaders around a vision for A I that ensures privacy is protected and people have equal access to opportunity. The speech followed her behind the scenes. Work with tex eos to secure voluntary safety commitments that would not stifle the technologies is extraordinary potential to shape and improve the world around us.

The efforts Harris has champion could serve as the basis of the kind of safe business environment for the U. S. A, I. Sector, the vice president has promised on the stump, unless the second trumpet administration torpedos s. Them the former president vowed in is twenty twenty four platform to roll back safety measures and rigorous national security safeguards the current administration has achieved.

What would he replace them with? Not much for reporting in the washington post, trump allies have drawn up plans to let A I industry players grade their own homework, paving the way for the kind of technology crisis that would deal a blow to the trust already skeptical consumers have in these systems, to workers, start up founders and others, navigating the profound implications of this evolving class. Technology trumps messages.

You're on your own. We can't know the course advanced technology will take in the next four years, but as the role of A I and daily life accelerates, america's next president will grapple with its impact, our safety, security and social fabric. Working families don't have to wonder how president Harris will handle these chAllenges.

He has already shown us SHE will listen to regular people, and then he will act.

And now back to the show. Next up we turn to john l. Evans, the president of promising people with the peace, titled, unsurprisingly, Donald trump is the clear choice on A I back to A I N O W. Now, Donald trump is the clear choice on A I vertical bar opinion. The trump campaign is focusing on ways to fix our country, including the use of artificial intelligence, A I solutions for a number of reasons.

A is being used to improve education, health care, scientific research, data automation, drug discovery, sustainability, manufacturing, retail, business banking, customer service and prison recidivism, a topic that president donal trump has spoken out about the need to reduce in twenty eighteen. His administration announce support for legislative action to reduce recidivism and called on congress to act. The president also successfully signed the first step at a bypass san criminal justice bill in december that year to improve criminal justice outcomes as well as to reduce the size of the federal prison population, while also creating mechanisms to maintain public safety.

As president trump displayed his commitment to strengthening american leadership in A I, recognizing its importance for the economy and national security, trump issued the first ever national AI strategy, committed to doubling A I research investment, set up the first ever national A I research institutes, launched the first A I regulatory guidance, created new international A I alliances, and set up guidance for federal use of ai. In twenty nineteen, trump s sign the first ever executive order on A I called the american A I initiative. The pillars of that order were to create resources, redirect funding, retrain workers, establish standards and engage internationally.

President trump also signed a second executive order promoting the use of trust where the A I and the federal government before he left office. The order featured policies that Carried over into the biden administration IT encourage federal agencies to continue to use A I, when appropriate, to benefit the american people. Most importantly, the order said that ongoing adoption and acceptance of A I would depend significantly on public trust agencies would be required to use A I in a manner that Fosters public trust and confidence while protecting privacy, civil rights, civil liberties and american values consistent with applicable law and the goals of executive order one, three, eight, five, nine.

On the contrary, the bidden administration simply issued an executive order on A I that trump has vowed to reverse once elected by iden's order signed in the fall of twenty twenty three, contained a list of to do items for federal agencies and A I designers, including requirements for developers of do use foundation models to share safety test results and other information with the government under the defense production act. Trump, in the republican national committee, R, N, C, have called the order dangerous, stating IT will stifle innovation and impose radical liberal ideas regarding the Harris campaign AI strategy. Senate commerce committee ranking member ted crews are texas, wrote a letter last month questioning the biden haris administration collaboration with the ran corporation as a massive think tank with strong silicon valley relationships.

Senator crews pointed out that ran not only helped draft the biden Harris artificial intelligence executive, but has also been a proponent of efforts by the government to censor online speech. His letter also described how ran and left wing groups have placed A I staff ers in federal agencies. Beyond that, the letter detailed the same tech billionaire or are financially backing the haris campaign, raising flags about potential conflicts of interest with A I regulation.

Trumps vice presidential pick jd vans has taken a strong stance on A I policy and the need to limit regulation in a senate hearing back in july. Vans has boniface day credentials and venture capital the guy sees IT. When A I is fully functioning, productivity can start to skyrocket, the likes of which we have never seen, and it's axy matic.

When productivity increases, Prices fall. Look no further than lastic eyes surgery. As tech advanced the procedure in these last decades, Prices, plum, ted and quality of service improved.

As a consultant with a global firm investing in strategies that leverage AI, i've seen first hands the economic benefits of innovation. Such benefits include a water pure fiction system that relies on the power of A I and its potential for improving the lives of countless people worldwide. Naturally, businesses should prefer a regulatory environment that catalist es innovation instead of timing.

This in dispensable phenomenon, the choice is clear. President trump would take amErica forward into the future of A I. The alternative would be a continuation of the current administration desire to stifle innovation in increased censorship.

All right. And now we are back to the real non artificial intelligence me. And the first thing I will say is, given that these essays were a news week, I would suggest that these are both unbelievably unconvincing arguments.

Luckily, I find their unconvincing this in decent proportion. So at least they have that sort of baLance, right? But basically, the S. A, in favor of Harris, effectively says that the industry needs to be rained in and that the needs of regular people need to be considered red. When IT comes to A I and commons is going to be Better for that.

Roughly speaking, the pro trumpet say, says, we ve got to just let A, I do its thing because when productivity increases, Prices fall, although I kind of spends a lot of time making the argument by ragging on biden. Now there was another piece I didn't read by Thomas freedmen, who also argued for camera in a peace called a Harris presidency is the only way to stay ahead of A I and basically the big underlying argument in that piece is that the chAllenge A I is going to be immense. One thing I think is very clear, and this is why you're seeing multiple apex about who would be Better or worse for this particular area, is that artificial intelligence is massively in the national agenda.

This will be one of the defining issues of the next president. No matter who IT is, IT will be a technology issue, an economy issue, a society issue. IT will be a geopolitics issue. It'll be a military issue. There will absolutely be big differences depending on whether IT is a democrat or a republican who is in the White house.

When IT comes to AI policy, however, there are arguments that I might be less different than you might have seemed about a year ago, the most recent White house, this course on A I was, of course, the big memo that made IT clear that IT was a massive national security priority. We saw this earlier in the year with the checked summer LED recommendations around AI policy as well that really put the emphasis on american leadership and american innovation. There might be some nuance to how it's enacted, but IT is very clear that right now, and increasingly on both sides of the air, leading in innovation and americans supremacy in the technology is the most important concern.

Whether that changes with the next president, we will have to see. But this is a pretty fascinating topic going into what will be an exciting and or dramatic or chaotic next week. Hope you all enjoy the show for now. That's going to do up for today's ideally brief until next time.
