Australia supports global AI safety rules while US leadership opposes them

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has thrown his support behind international safety rules for artificial intelligence. This comes at a time when incoming United States leader Donald Trump has promised to fight against government controls on the technology. Australia wants to work with other countries to set up clear standards for how AI is built and used safely. On the other side, the Trump camp argues that strict rules will slow down new technology and hurt business growth in the technology sector.
