SINGAPORE, Oct 3 — Singapore is strengthening safeguards against artificial intelligence (AI) as it becomes more capable and autonomous, said Digital Development and Information Minister Josephine Teo.
She said the advancement of AI has led to growing concerns, including among leading AI developers, about the risks that could follow.
“The bigger the potential impact of an AI-enabled action, the stronger the safeguards and human oversight should be.
“In other words, just as attackers can use AI, so too can defenders,” she said in her Facebook post yesterday.
Teo said safeguards become even more important as AI models are brought into systems, giving them access to data, tools and processes.
