UAE Artificial Intelligence Minister Omar Sultan Al Olama has called for criminalization of “serious crimes” in the metaverse. Writes about it CNBC.
According to him, the realistic nature of any metaverse would allow people to be “terrorized” in ways that are not currently possible.
“If I send you a WhatsApp message […] it may terrorize you, but it is unlikely to lead to PTSDal-Olamah said.
He added that “killing” an avatar in a realistic virtual environment could lead to aggressive retaliation.
Al Olama called International Telecommunication Union discuss setting international security standards for the metaverse that humans must adhere to regardless of jurisdiction. As an example, he cited general Internet standards that prevent drug trafficking and child pornography.
Metaverse Product Director Chris Cox also talked about the need to develop international standards for the metaverse.
“Maybe there will be something like the rating system that we have for movies, music and other types of content so that parents or young people can have some idea of the rules of the environment they are going to enter,” he said.
Recall that in May, the Dubai cryptocurrency market regulator announced the opening of its headquarters in The Sandbox.
In April, an ex-Meta employee warned about the threat to privacy in the metaverse.
