TREE NEWS update: Bill Gates said no government worldwide is prepared for the sweeping social changes AI will bring, warning of risks including job losses, cyberattacks and psychological addiction. In an interview with Reuters, the Microsoft co-founder, who had long been optimistic about AI, said countries including the US and China should work together to manage the technology. He added that if managed well and distributed fairly, AI could help the world’s poorest people.
Gates Warns No Government Is Ready for AI, Urges US-China Cooperation
AI take
Gates' shift from AI optimist to governance alarmist carries weight precisely because he is not a regulator or a rival vendor, but a tech founder whose credibility on the subject is hard to dismiss. The call for US-China cooperation is the sharper point: AI governance is currently fragmented along exactly the geopolitical lines he says must converge. The open question is whether that message lands with governments already treating AI as a sovereignty issue rather than a shared-risk problem.
