He advocates for a national AI regulatory framework modelled after the EU AI Act to manage risks from high-impact AI applications, and for establishing an independent council of experts to oversee AI development and test critical systems. While using slightly different terminology, he has confirmed through direct communication that his positions align with the specific policy proposals on the scorecard. Price emphasises that addressing global catastrophic risks, including AI safety, is his primary motivation for running for Parliament.
