Former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris says the time to put safeguards around advanced artificial intelligence is running out, urging governments and AI developers to act before the “window is shutting.” Speaking at an event in South Korea, she reiterates calls for slowing “frontier” AI development and prioritizing guardrails.
Across the reports, Harris ties the urgency to risks that include AI systems being used in ways that are harder to contain, and the need for developers to help shape safety measures. She also urges cooperation between the United States and China as part of a broader effort to ensure safeguards are in place. One outlet additionally highlights concerns related to AI-enabled weapons and cyber threats, framing them as examples of harms that safeguards could help prevent.
The coverage focuses on Harris’s policy messaging rather than new legislative proposals, presenting her comments as part of an ongoing push for coordinated, international AI risk management.
