    "Utterly reckless" tech giants churning out ever more powerful bots before humankind knows how to "make them safe" should be held liable for any Terminator-style harm they cause, boffins say.<\/p>\n

    Powerful artificial intelligence systems could wreck society, according to a host of experts including two "godfathers" of the technology. Big tech companies that ignore the dangers should be held accountable for the damage their bots do, the experts say.<\/p>\n

    The call came ahead of next week\u2019s Bletchley Park summit on AI safety set to be attended by international politicians, tech firms and academics. Stuart Russell, a professor of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley, US, has co-authored a policy proposal from 23 experts slamming the continued production of more powerful AI until they have worked out how to stop bots wreaking havoc.<\/p>\n

    The document urges governments to adopt a range of policies including allocating one-third of their AI research funding and companies a third of their resources to the safe and ethical use of systems. Independent auditors should be allowed access to laboratories.<\/p>\n

    Cutting-edge bots should be licensed before they are built. AI companies must adopt specific safety measures if dangerous capabilities are found in their systems. And all tech companies must be held liable for foreseeable and preventable harm their systems cause.<\/p>\n
