    Important conversation on AI with @BillGates and digital CEOs. We have to strike the right balance. Between the huge potential AI holds for our industry, healthcare, innovation and so much more. And its regulation, ensuring trustworthiness and our cyber security. This is why Europe has the AI Act - for innovation under human control. And we will continue our global engagement on better coordination and common standards. To manage the rapid development of AI in the interest of humanity.

    Thank you for bringing us together, @vonderleyen. AI adoption and preparedness have to move together. We can’t anticipate everything, but we can build the institutions, technical capacity, and safeguards to respond as the technology advances.

    AI is the most profound technology I’ve seen, both in its ability to help people and to disrupt their lives. I’m optimistic about the good it can do, but we need to take its risks seriously.

    Just as we regulate planes, cars, and medicines, we need safeguards that help us realize AI's incredible potential while reducing the risks. They won’t eliminate every harm, but they can help prevent misuse by bad actors. We’re not where we need to be yet—and this deserves much more of our attention.

    Researchers are looking for ways to stop them from forming — not because they’re poisonous, but because, in the right conditions, they make the planet hotter. Persistent contrails are responsible for about half of the temperature increase caused by aviation. If we were to get rid of some of them, we could eliminate up to two percent of all global warming.

    I appreciated the opportunity to speak with @ezraklein at length about the state of AI. I believe the world isn't awake to the dangers of this technology and the choices humanity has to make. AI will either be the greatest tool for opportunity and equality we've ever seen—or the cause of immense, unprecedented harm. Which way things go is up to us.

    We need to put the appropriate AI safeguards and monitoring in place now—to both prevent a loss of control and stop bad actors from using the tech to cause harm. If we minimize the risks, we’ll get to benefit from AI’s immense potential in fields like medicine, education, and agriculture.

    I’m deeply sad to learn of the passing of Dr. Bill Foege. Bill was a towering figure in global health—a man who saved the lives of literally hundreds of millions of people. He was also a friend and mentor who gave me a deep grounding in the history of global health and inspired me with his conviction that the world could do more to alleviate suffering.​ Bill and I often talked together about the future of global health. The legacy of his career is that many of the remarkable developments to come will have his imprint all over them. ​

    Learning how many kids were dying from diarrhea back in 1997—when I never worried about it with my own kids—led me to get involved in global health.

    Thanks to vaccines, fewer children are dying from preventable diseases around the world. Cutting funding for them would reverse that progress and put millions of children in danger.

    The facts are simple and devastating: Aid cuts have already cost lives, and the number of deaths will continue to rise. Here’s the evidence.

    To me, this is the most remarkable thing about global health: With a relatively small amount of money, you can do a great deal of good for a great many people. This is money well spent, and we should go back to spending it—now.
