A Yahoo Finance video panel featuring market analysts and strategists debates whether AI safety can be solved and how fast government can regulate the industry. Topics include the White House's new AI czar role and its 120-day timeline, Sam Altman's argument that society should accept some negative outcomes to realize AI's benefits, and Nvidia's efforts to embed security into its infrastructure.
