"Biden's Growing Concerns About AI Prompt Executive Order and White House AI Event Attendance"
President Joe Biden's concerns about the potential dangers of artificial intelligence (AI) grew after watching the movie "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning," which features a rogue AI as the villain. Biden had already been worried about AI deepfakes of himself and the potential for scams. In response, he signed an executive order requiring AI companies to share safety test results with the government and calling for best practices to mitigate AI's harms and maximize its benefits. The order also aims to address deepfakes by directing the Department of Commerce to develop standards for authentication and watermarking.
