Tesla Inc. Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and X Corp. Chairman Elon Musk proposed on Wednesday the creation of what he described as a third-party referee that will control companies' work on artificial intelligence (AI) and respond to misuses.
"What we're really aiming for here is to establish a framework for insight so that there's at least a third-party referee, an independent referee, that can observe what leading AI companies are doing and at least sound the alarm if they have concerns," Musk told the media upon his arrival to the AI Safety Forum at Bletchley Park, which was organized by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
Earlier in the day, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and 28 other countries published the so-called Bletchley Declaration in which they agreed to strengthen their cooperation on AI-related matters.
