AI regulation will be required in 5-10 years: DeepMind’s Mustefa Suleyman

Policymakers and regulators across the world must think of regulating artificial intelligence (AI) in the next 5-10 years to prevent misuse of such tools in affecting nation states by politicizing the spread of information, said Mustafa Suleyman, cofounder, Inflection AI and DeepMind.

“I think the negative consequences here are likely to arise simply because so many people with different organisational interests, different religious and political values will not only affect information but also the real world in practice. I think that is the challenge for nation states,” Suleyman said.
