The full interview airs on NBC's Meet the Press. Gates says self-regulation is not enough, urges Congress and law enforcement to set mandatory safeguards, calls a 'kill switch' concept technically naive, and separately tells Bloomberg that Trump is wrong to resist AI guardrails and that global AI rules may be harder to negotiate than Cold War nuclear talks.
“It's not enough to have a kill switch. We're not yet at the point where … they autonomously grab computers and, you know, can't be shut down.”
