Tech Expert/Author Kara Swisher Says Government Needs to Regulate AI Now


REGULATE OR ELSE

Kara Swisher is getting real about the unavoidability of artificial intelligence … offering up candid advice on how we should navigate the ever-evolving technology in the future.

We got the famed tech journalist — who just released her new book, “Burn Book: A Tech Love Story” — Tuesday on “TMZ Live,” where she issued a warning about what’s to come for AI.

Kara tells us artificial intelligence isn’t going anywhere — and while fake propaganda’s always been around, AI is making it almost impossible to distinguish phony info from the real thing.

Which is why she thinks the government needs to start a dialogue with tech companies about regulation … something it does with other industries.

One thing Kara’s not keen on is the notion all AI creations fall under free speech, and all the protections that come with that tag — instead, she’d like to see more people sue for damages.

For example, Taylor Swift was recently victimized when phony X-rated/NSFW AI images of her surfaced online — and if she were to sue the creators, Kara says that might deter future bad actors.
