Florian Martin-Bariteau, a professor at the University of Ottawa, argues for the necessity of AI regulation to foster innovation. At a recent global AI summit in Paris, he emphasized that regulation can guide innovators toward societal benefits rather than stifle creativity. Despite concerns from some leaders, including American Vice-President J.D. Vance about overregulation hindering industry growth, Martin-Bariteau believes regulation is vital for addressing issues such as election interference by AI. He noted that conversations at the summit lacked commitment and actionable strategies, highlighting the ongoing struggle for effective governance in AI technology.
"Not any kind of innovation is good for society. Regulation can help provide a playbook for innovators, knowing what they can do and not do, and innovate in a safe environment."
"Conversations at the summit were light toward commitment and lacking big actions. A lot of people think regulation will stifle innovation."
