White House Blocks French Bid for G7 AI Oversight
France's attempt to make advanced artificial intelligence safety a shared priority for the G7 has run into resistance from Washington. A proposal to establish a high-level working group to test the most advanced AI models and exchange data on risks and incidents was dismissed by a White House official as “unnecessary bureaucracy”, Politico reports.
The issue was raised by France's Minister for Digital Affairs, Anne Le Hénanff, during a hearing before the French Senate on Wednesday. She said that she had held two ministerial meetings in September and October, seeking commitments from G7 countries to establish such a body. The initiative, however, “did not reach a successful conclusion” because the United States is determined to pursue its own approach.
