White House says ‘Mission: Impossible’ increased Joe Biden’s concerns about AI

President Joe Biden’s concern about artificial intelligence grew after watching “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One,” according to the White House.

Biden signed a sweeping executive order on Monday regulating the development of artificial intelligence, saying he wants to prevent AI from making social media “more addictive” or from abetting fraud.

Biden stated that he had seen “deeply fake” videos of himself, using the term for increasingly widespread and convincing doctored videos.

His anxiety intensified after he watched a Tom Cruise action thriller, according to White House deputy chief of staff Bruce Reed.

“If [Biden] had never worried about what could happen with AI before the movie, he saw a lot more to worry about,” Reed said.

Reed said he watched the film with Biden at Camp David, following its release in July earlier this year.

The film features a dangerous artificial intelligence device referred to as “The Entity,” which tracks Ethan Hunt (Cruise) while hijacking and sinking a Russian submarine, manipulating video footage of characters’ faces and impersonating human voices.

This AI feature is known to be a concern for Biden, who Reed says has been “very curious about the technology” of AI.

Biden has watched AI technology create a “false AI image of itself [and] his dog”, and has seen him perform “incredible and terrifying voice cloning technology,” Reed added.

“[AI] can take three seconds of your voice and turn it into a whole fake conversation.”

Under the first act of its kind, companies such as Google, Amazon and Microsoft-backed OpenAI will be required to share security test results with the government when they train AI models that pose a potential “serious risk to national security, national economic security or national public health and safety.”

“President Biden is launching the strongest set of actions ever taken by any government in the world on the safety, security and trust of AI,” Reed said in a statement Monday morning.

“It is the next step in an aggressive strategy to do everything in all areas to leverage the benefits of AI and reduce risks,” he added.
