Original: AI and the climate crisis pose existential risks. The law offers a way to reduce them | Robert Reich https://www. thegua
Robert Reich argues in a Guardian opinion piece that artificial intelligence and the climate crisis both represent existential risks, and that legal tools offer a practical way to reduce them. He points to liability lawsuits as a means of holding companies accountable for harm caused by AI systems and climate change, urging greater use of the courts where regulation has lagged.
Why now: The opinion piece ties two major current anxieties, AI and climate change, to a concrete legal remedy, sparking debate about liability lawsuits.
