Bill Gates says it's 'completely irresponsible' for AI to not have safeguards

Bill Gates argues that AI must include safeguards and monitoring, citing the risk of bad actors using the technology for bioterrorism or financial fraud. He supports regulatory oversight from lawmakers and law enforcement, noting that such measures would add overhead but not dramatically slow industry progress. Gates also acknowledges a “kill switch” idea but believes it fails to address the more immediate danger of malicious use.
