Technology giants go to the White House to talk artificial intelligence

in #ai6 years ago

Representatives of 38 companies including Amazon, Google and Facebook are going to the White House to speak artificial intelligence.

According to the Washington Post, representatives of 38 companies, including Amazon, Google and Facebook, will attend the White House meeting to discuss the country's artificial intelligence development in the coming days.

Trump management, criticized for being insufficient in long-term artificial intelligence, seems to have decided to confront the difficulties and promises of artificial intelligence with this meeting. The fact that US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was not worried that robots would get American employees to take over their jobs for the past year was interpreted by the technology sector as the fact that the Trump administration was uninformed about this issue and responded.

The United States is generally regarded as the world leader in artificial intelligence. However, experts say the country is not doing its utmost to protect this position and to control future threats. Other countries are much more efficient in terms of artificial intelligence. France announced that it will invest 1.8 billion dollars in artificial intelligence by 2022. It is stated that in the artificial intelligence ethos of the United Kingdom, millions of dollars will be allocated to this area in order to become a pioneer. China plans to become the world leader in artificial intelligence by 2030. The United States has not so far described a large-scale project or investment support.

How the automation will affect the job market is one that the White House has not yet discussed. While different predictions have been made over the past few years about how many automation workers may be unemployed, economists argue that the main focus in this regard is to re-educate employees according to the changing world conditions.

Dean Garfield, chairman of the Board of Innovation of Industrial Industries of Information Technology, who is lobbying for 40 different technology companies in Washington, says the Trump administration has so far been slow in terms of artificial intelligence, but is now focusing on "right things". He says that this meeting with the representatives of the world of technology is "an opportunity to accelerate towards success".
