Fei-Fei Li said the tech industry needs to do a better job explaining the value of artificial intelligence to the public, according to a Bloomberg interview reported on Aug. 19. She said people working in technology should strengthen communication with the public and show the positive impact AI can bring. Li also warned that rising anti-AI sentiment in the United States could create risks for AI development worldwide. In her remarks, she said that if the industry fails to show a positive attitude and a constructive direction for AI, the consequences will not be limited to the U.S. Because the country holds significant influence in global technology, she said an inability by the U.S. to present a positive AI stance and development path would eventually affect the rest of the world.
