Clark argued that clear, practical rules would build confidence in AI and support economic growth, framing regulation as a way to balance risk and opportunity in the technology’s rapid expansion.\n\nThe discussion, titled *‘AI and the Global Economy: From Risk to Opportunity,’* likely focused on how governance frameworks could prevent misuse while fostering innovation.
