Microsoft president has a ‘message’ for Trump admin on export ban on AI models

 Microsoft President Brad Smith criticizes the US government’s recent AI model crackdowns. He stated the administration regulated advanced technology without necessary transparency or proper rules. The Commerce Department initially restricted Anthropic and OpenAI AI models citing cybersecurity risks. While the government’s concern was legitimate, Smith argued the approach lacked appropriate regulatory tools. He hopes for a more balanced and effective future regulatory conversation. Microsoft President Brad Smith criticizes the US government’s recent AI model crackdowns.
