Bill Gates: AI 'kill switch' alone won't manage risk, wants monitoring rules

In an interview aired on NBC's 'Meet the Press,' Bill Gates said a kill switch for AI systems isn't sufficient on its own to address risks, and argued companies should instead track exactly how sophisticated AI models are being used.
