Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has issued a call to action for the global AI industry: companies developing artificial intelligence must prioritize “social tolerance”—ensuring AI systems are safe, accountable, transparent, and aligned with societal norms. (Times of India) Nadella emphasized that failing to address ethical, safety, and governance issues could slow adoption of AI technologies across businesses and governments, and could even spark regulatory pushback globally. His message reinforces the urgent need for companies to build trustworthy AI systems that earn societal approval before widespread deployment.
