Abstract
The article focuses on Connor Leahy, an AI researcher and CEO of Conjecture, who advocates for regulating deepfakes as a crucial first step in addressing the existential risks posed by advanced artificial intelligence (AI). Leahy emphasizes the urgency of the situation, suggesting that society may have only a few years to implement effective regulations before AI could potentially overwhelm human control. He proposes a liability framework for deepfake technology developers and calls for a moratorium on large-scale AI experiments, likening the need for regulation to the introduction of safety measures like seatbelts in cars. Leahy expresses a mix of optimism about potential regulatory progress and pessimism regarding the rapid advancement of AI technology and the disregard for safety by some corporations.
