Bill Gates Calls for Strict Regulation and Taxes on Artificial Intelligence

Microsoft billionaire co-founder Bill Gates has published an article containing comprehensive policy proposals to prepare for the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies. Gates stated that artificial intelligence and robots could take over most jobs within a few years, emphasizing that governments must take urgent measures.

Artificial Intelligence and the Business World

Bill Gates predicts that artificial intelligence and robotic technologies will take over most professions within the next few years. He argues that governments should protect human-centric and highly specialized jobs, or job quotas, specifically for humans.

Robot and Token Taxation

Stating that the current tax system incentivizes companies to replace human workers with robots, Gates proposes taxing artificial intelligence tokens and robots. He states that the revenues generated from this could be used to retrain workers and support social benefits.

National and Global Regulation

Governments need to enter a rapid restructuring process to regulate artificial intelligence. Gates notes that in addition to countries establishing units at the national level, rivals such as the US and China must cooperate to create a global artificial intelligence regulatory body before a crisis arises.

Foundation's Work and Objectives

The Gates Foundation aims to spend two hundred billion dollars for humanitarian purposes in the final nineteen years of its twenty-year spending plan. The foundation conducts work for vaccine and medical development, combating malnutrition, and the integration of artificial intelligence in agriculture and education.
