Interoperability in global legislation around artificial intelligence will be among the most crucial aspects going ahead, especially for smaller businesses that may find it difficult to navigate conflicting and complicated regulations around the world, said Markham Erickson, vice president, government affairs and public policy at Google’s Centers for Excellence. In an interaction with Soumyarendra Barik and Anil Sasi, he also spoke about safe harbor protections for generative AI platforms, regulatory challenges to AI, and how Google’s relationship could change with news publishers going forward. There are parallels to the mid-’90s at the beginning of the commercial internet, where stakeholders are having to get together and think about the norms that should apply and how existing laws need to be amended to account for the new technology. And in the mid-’90s, the United States took the lead.
