Nvidia Corp. will join IBM Corp. and Salesforce Inc. at the White House on Tuesday as a second group of artificial intelligence companies promise to adopt the administration’s voluntary safety principles to put guardrails on this new technology.
The commitments were first adopted by an initial seven companies in July as the Biden administration tries to shape minimal standards to avoid the gravest risks presented by powerful AI models.
