Artificial Intelligence and Potential Risks
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen made important evaluations regarding artificial intelligence during the European Parliament General Assembly session in Strasbourg. She stated that artificial intelligence is a fundamental technology in terms of economy and security.
Dangers Posed by Advanced Models
Emphasizing that risks become more pronounced as the capacity of advanced artificial intelligence models increases, von der Leyen stated that these technologies could enable levels of hacking previously considered impossible.
Industry Leaders' Warnings
Conveying that the dangers arising from self-improving artificial intelligence models are becoming visible, the official recalled that executives of companies developing advanced systems have also warned that the pace of progress needs to be brought under control.
Meeting Call to Laboratories
Stating that the EU Artificial Intelligence Act is of critical importance in terms of security measures, von der Leyen noted that she will call the leading laboratories developing the most advanced artificial intelligence models to a meeting for the controlled management of the development speed.
Europe's Priority Sectors
