Maria Ressa Urges Regulation of AI to Protect Human AgencyPreviousNext

Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa has warned that artificial intelligence (AI) could undermine human agency if governments do not implement regulations soon. Speaking at a conference in Oslo, she emphasized that regulating AI is a public safety issue rather than a free speech concern. Ressa, co-chair of a UN scientific panel on AI, urged citizens to advocate for legislation to hold tech companies accountable and prevent AI from becoming uncontrollable, highlighting its influence through social media and manipulation.
