Artificial intelligence is transforming the economy, but many Americans remain deeply skeptical of where the technology is headed. In this clip from GZERO World with Ian Bremmer, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro makes the case that Democrats should embrace innovation while also demanding stronger guardrails for AI.

Shapiro argues that the Trump administration has taken an overly hands-off approach, leaving tech companies to set their own rules. While acknowledging AI's enormous potential, he says government has a responsibility to establish clear standards that protect consumers, ensure accountability, and address emerging risks.

Can the United States remain a global leader in AI while still protecting the public? Shapiro believes the answer is yes, but only if government is willing to set the rules of the road.
