Bruce Schneier warns that corporate AI models are inherently biased to benefit their creators, potentially leading to commercial manipulation similar to search engines. He emphasizes the need for transparency in AI, advocating for regulatory frameworks like the EU AI Act that require companies to be open about their data handling and decision-making processes. While recognizing the challenges in the legislation, Schneier believes that it can influence global standards, though in the US, progress on meaningful regulation appears unlikely under the current administration.
