  "summary": "Former US Vice President Kamala Harris warned on Wednesday that the window for containing the gravest risks associated with artificial intelligence is closing. Speaking at South Korea’s Asan Institute for Policy Studies, Harris urged governments and technology companies to urgently implement safeguards. She stated that AI developers must be \"at the table\" if guardrails and safeguards are to be effective.\n\nHarris identified three existential dangers posed by AI: cybersecurity threats, AI-enabled weapons, and systems escaping human control. She called for immediate action against these risks and urged the United States to engage with China to establish international rules and standards for AI. According to Harris, the broader strategic rivalry between the two nations should not prevent cooperation on shared risks, noting that there is room for cooperation where interests align. She advocated for \"healthy and robust competition, but not conflict.\"",
