We congratulate the White House and leading AI companies – including SIIA members Amazon, Google and Meta – on the commitments announced today to manage the risks posted by AI. We agree that in order for AI to reach its potential to improve American lives, it must be developed in a way that ensures safety, security and trustworthiness. The commitments made by these companies set the bar for the AI ecosystem and the business of information, immediately moving the United States to the front of the global effort to advance responsible AI.
