Who will write the rules for AI? How nations are racing to regulate artificial intelligence

Retrieved on: 
Mittwoch, November 8, 2023

Our understanding of AI technologies is largely shaped by where we encounter them, from facial recognition tools and chatbots to photo editing software and self-driving cars.

Key Points: 
  • Our understanding of AI technologies is largely shaped by where we encounter them, from facial recognition tools and chatbots to photo editing software and self-driving cars.
  • Less visible are the world’s governments, which are shaping the landscape of rules in which AI systems will operate.
  • Since 2016, tech-savvy regions and nations across Europe, Asia-Pacific and North America have been establishing regulations targeting AI technologies.

Ramping up AI regulations

  • AI regulation efforts began to accelerate in April 2021, when the EU proposed an initial framework for regulations called the AI Act.
  • These rules aim to set obligations for providers and users, based on various risks associated with different AI technologies.
  • As the EU AI Act was pending, China moved forward with proposing its own AI regulations.

A ‘wake-up call’

  • In April, influential lawmaker Chuck Shumer said his country should “not permit China to lead on innovation or write the rules of the road” for AI.
  • On October 30 2023, the White House issued an executive order on safe, secure and trustworthy AI.
  • The order attempts to address broader issues of equity and civil rights, while also concentrating on specific applications of technology.

Shared vision

  • The EU’s AI Act, China’s AI regulations, and the White House executive order show shared interests between the nations involved.
  • Countries or regions see AI as a contributor to their economic development, national security, and international leadership.
  • Numbers like these, and talk of perceived benefits from tech companies, national governments, and consultancy firms, tend to dominate media coverage of AI.

Competing interests

  • At the UK’s AI safety summit, international tensions were apparent.
  • While China agreed with the Bletchley declaration made on the summit’s first day, it was excluded from public events on the second day.

The limitations of current rules

  • For instance, there is no clear, common set of definitions of different kinds of AI technology in current regulations across jurisdictions.
  • Current legal definitions of AI tend to be very broad, raising concern over how practical they are.
  • However, defining AI technologies narrowly, as China has done, poses a risk that companies will find ways to work around the rules.

Moving forward

  • The existing AI governance frameworks from the UK, the US, the EU, and – to a limited extent – China are likely to be seen as guidance.
  • Global collaboration will be underpinned by both ethical consensus and more importantly national and geopolitical interests.
