00:00The United States press G20 members on Tuesday to take hands-off approach to artificial intelligence regulation
00:05as technology leaders gather in North Carolina for talks on the future of AI and global competitiveness.
00:11U.S. Tech Advisor Michael Kretzios, who is co-hosting the meeting, advocated for countries to adopt the Carolina principles,
00:18arguing that governments should avoid creating new regulations unless AI presents truly novel policy challenges.
00:25Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg backed an open approach to AI development,
00:30arguing that open-source and open-weight models can improve security, transparency and innovation.
00:37At Meta, we build both open and closed models. We've had a long history of building open-source software.
00:44We felt that it's worked well. When you look at issues like cybersecurity,
00:48I think it's just very well established over decades that open-source systems end up being more secure
00:54because there's more scrutiny on them, right?
00:57It's basically if more people can see how the thing works and can measure it and understand it,
01:02understand where it works well, understand where the defects are, patch it,
01:06then that leads to systems that are more hardened over time.
01:10And I think that that's going to be the case here as well.
01:13Zuckerberg said broader access to AI models would help create checks and balances
01:17beyond a handful of leading AI companies.
01:20He added that broader access to AI models was an important part of ensuring a secure and safe future
01:27and that governments, startups and individuals should be able to access and control the technology.
01:34The meeting comes as Washington seeks to maintain external-logical edge over China
01:39and encourage countries to remain within the U.S.-led AI ecosystem.
01:44Zuckerberg said Meta would continue releasing open-source models
01:47while evaluating each systems individually based on its capabilities.
01:52To me, open-source is one important part of making sure that the AI future
01:57and the prosperity is broadly shared by a lot of people.
02:00So probably the biggest part of what we need to do is build these kind of agents that I talked
02:05about
02:05and make sure that they're distributed to billions of people.
02:09So that way the power and the capability of AI should be something that everyone has,
02:15not just something that's restricted to a small number of people.
02:19But the ethos of open-source is also very aligned with this philosophy
02:24and it's something that Meta has focused on for a long time as well.
02:28It basically puts the power in individual developers' hands
02:32so that way they're not just dependent on a small number of these frontier labs
02:37for what is an increasingly critical part of the applications and technology that they're building.
