  • Artificial intelligence (AI) presents both risks and opportunities, comparable to the challenges faced with earlier innovations like automobiles and personal computers.

  • It's essential for governments to establish clear regulations and guidelines for AI use, learning from historical precedents to ensure the technology's benefits outweigh its risks.
