George Clooney has said he doesn’t trust the government to regulate AI. The actor said AI was dangerous because it could make people doubt about real things, as well as invent things that don’t exist. It also that sort of world of fake news — suddenly you’re able to take things that really happened and say, ‘Well, that didn’t happen either.” “You’ll have people who deny the Holocaust, and that will have the same weight in AI as facts.” Clooney also talked about how his wife Amal Clooney, a prominent human rights lawyer, has come across laws that were invented by AI.
They “will hallucinate and make up fake cases, and lawyers who don’t check it will quote those cases, or judges will quote those cases,” he warned. And how do you discern it?” Talking about his hopes for the next presidential election and for potential candidates, Clooney said, “We’re all very excited by this young senator from Georgia named Jon Ossoff. We’re all excited about Jimmy [J.B.] Pritzker.
I’m from Kentucky, I like Andy Beshear as a governor.” “We need young voices in there that are coming up with some new ideas and some new thoughts,” he added. Clooney also stressed the “need to have a check and balance — We’re not supposed to agree. That’s the whole idea of democracy.”
