18 countries agreed in a 20-page document that companies need to deploy AI products that keep customers and the public safe from misuse.

Jen Easterly, the director of the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, said , "the most important thing that needs to be done at the design phase is security.”.
