Harris stressed the significance of public engagement in shaping the future of AI governance. He encouraged individuals to advocate for clear strategies regarding AI, emphasizing proactive steps that can be taken to mitigate potential harms. These include:
Banning engagement-driven AI systems designed for children to prevent psychological harm.
Establishing liability laws holding AI companies accountable for any damages caused by their technologies.
Protecting whistleblowers in the tech industry to ensure that warnings about AI risks can be shared without penalty.
These avenues represent just a fraction of what could be done if society collectively prioritizes expertise and ethical considerations in developing AI technologies.
