Washington: The United States unveiled Thursday a framework to address national security risks posed by artificial intelligence, a year after President Joe Biden issued an executive order on regulating the technology.
The National Security Memorandum (NSM) seeks to thread the needle between harnessing the technology to counter the military use of AI by adversaries such as China while building effective safeguards that uphold public trust, officials said.
"There are very clear national security applications of artificial intelligence, including in areas like cybersecurity and counterintelligence," a senior Biden administration official told reporters.
"Countries like China recognize similar opportunities to modernize and revolutionize their own military and intelligence capabilities.
"It's particularly imperative that we accelerate our national security communities' adoption and use of cutting-edge AI capabilities to maintain our competitive edge."
