Goldman Sachs is out with its near-term forex outlook
Investing.com -- Kent Walker, President of Global Affairs at Google & Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL), recently shared the company’s perspective on the U.S. AI Action (WA:ACT) Plan, emphasizing the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in fields like healthcare, scientific discovery, and economic growth. Walker highlighted the necessity of appropriate policy frameworks to maintain America’s position as an AI leader and to support a new era of opportunities.
In response to the Office of Science and Technology Policy’s Request for Information, Google recommended focusing on three key areas. Firstly, the company called for increased investment in AI. This includes policy reforms to address rising energy needs, an essential factor for expanding AI infrastructure. Google also urged for export controls that balance national security with the ability to provide AI services overseas. The company further suggested that American scientists need more access to computational resources for research, which could be achieved through advanced partnerships with national labs. The tech giant also advocated for policy frameworks that allow access to data for fair learning and a risk-based approach to AI applications.
Secondly, Google proposed accelerating and modernizing government AI adoption. The company suggested that the government could lead by example in AI adoption and deployment by implementing multi-vendor, interoperable AI solutions and streamlining procurement procedures for AI and other emerging technologies.
Lastly, Google recommended promoting pro-innovation approaches internationally. The company suggested that the federal government should champion market-driven and widely adopted technical standards. This could be achieved by building on the Commerce Department’s leading role with the International Standards Organization and other standard-setting organizations. Google also proposed developing protocols and benchmarks around potential risks of frontier AI systems in collaboration with industry partners and aligned countries. The company further suggested that the administration could support American AI leadership by combating restrictive foreign AI barriers.
Walker emphasized that policy decisions will shape the outcome of the global AI competition. A pro-innovation approach that safeguards national security and enables widespread benefits will help realize AI’s transformative potential and ensure that America’s lead endures. Google expressed its commitment to contribute to this effort, including working with the federal government to ensure the success of the AI Action Plan.
