Microsoft AI chief urges guardrails as White House resists broad regulation

[Protective Barrier To AI Technology] wildpixel/iStock via Getty Images Microsoft (MSFT [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/MSFT]) AI chief Mustafa Suleyman said competition with China should not prevent the United States from establishing safeguards for artificial intelligence. Speaking on CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS,” Suleyman argued that policymakers can address safety risks without undermining American innovation. He said AI models should operate within clearly defined limits that keep people in control. The comments highlight a widening divide over how Washington should oversee AI. President Donald Trump has pledged not to restrain the industry and has dismissed warnings about runaway AI as exaggerated.
