The U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Thursday called for regulation of artificial intelligence technology to ensure it does not hurt growth or become a national security risk, a departure from the business lobbying group’s typical anti-regulatory stance.

While there is little in terms of proposed legislation for AI, the fast-growing artificial intelligence program ChatGPT that has drawn praise for its ability to write answers quickly to a wide range of queries has raised U.S. lawmakers’ concerns about its impact on national security and education.

The Chamber report argues policymakers and business leaders must quickly ramp up their efforts to establish a “risk-based regulatory framework” that will ensure AI is deployed responsibly.

It added that AI is projected to add $13 trillion to global economic growth by 2030 and that it has made important contributions such as easing hospital nursing shortages and mapping wildfires to speed emergency management officials’ response. The report emphasized the need to be ready for the technology’s looming ubiquity and potential dangers.

The report asserts that within 20 years, “virtually every” business and government agency will use AI.

A product of a commission on artificial intelligence that the Chamber established last year, the report is in part a recognition of the critical role the business community will play in the deployment and management of AI, the Chamber said.

Even as it calls for more regulation, the Chamber is careful to caveat that there may be broad exceptions to how regulation is applied.

“Rather than trying to develop a one size-fits-all regulatory framework, this approach to AI regulation allows for the development of flexible, industry-specific guidance and best practices,” the report says.

Dear Shri Rajeev Chandrasekharji,

In today’s Economic Times , you are quoted as :

“ There is space for criminalities and illegalities, and NEW COMPLEX FORMS of

user harms…. There is proliferation of HATE SPEECH, DISINFORMATION , and

FAKE NEWS.

The new bill will attempt to address these concerns “

Following is your quote from :

Centre Reviewing 'Safe Harbour' Clause In Digital India Bill: Minister

Extract :

Mr Chandrasekhar said legislation has to be in place for the next 10 years to

catalyse the innovation ecosystem, protect consumers, be future-proof and

future-ready.

"At a time when technology is disrupting so rapidly. There is AI (Artificial

Intelligence). There is AI compute, blockchain, there are all types of big

disruptive changes underway. That is a time that this legislation has been

brought. So this legislation has to be future-ready and it has to be future-proof,"

he said.

Dear Shri Chandrasekharji,

The only way to make DIGITAL INDIA BILL , future-ready, is to implement :

Ø Parekh’s Law of Chatbots ………………………………………. 25 Feb 2023

I realize that we, in India, cannot implement this ( or a similar ) law , on our own

But I urge you to seize this opportunity ( of G 20 Leadership position ), to start a

debate

To begin with, please consider an online survey using Google Forms

Meta mirrors Parekh’s Law of Chatbots

Context :

Meta will keep releasing AI tools despite leak claims ……………………… Hindu / 07 March 2023

Extract :

Meta Platforms Inc. on Monday said it will continue to release its artificial intelligence tools to approved researchers despite claims on online message boards that its latest large language model had leaked to unauthorised users.

"While the model is not accessible to all, and some have tried to circumvent the approval process, we believe the current release strategy allows us to balance responsibility and openness," Meta said in a statement.

Facebook owner Meta maintains a major AI research arm and last month released LLaMA, short for Large Language Model Meta AI. Meta claimed that the model can achieve the kind of human-like conversational abilities of AI systems designed by ChatGPT creator OpenAI and Alphabet Inc. while using far less computing power.

Unlike some rivals such as OpenAI, which keeps tight wraps on its technology and charges software developers to access it, Meta's AI research arm shares most of its work openly. But AI tools also contain the potential for abuse, such as creating and spreading false information

To avoid those kinds of misuse, Meta makes its tools available to researchers and other entities affiliated with government, civil society and academia under a non-commercial license after a vetting process.

Last week, users on the online forum 4Chan claimed to have made the model available for download. Reuters could not independently verify those claims.

In its statement, Meta said its LLaMA release was handled in the same way as previous models and that it does not plan to change its strategy.

"It’s Meta's goal to share state-of-the-art AI models with members of the research community to help us evaluate and improve those models," Meta said.

MY TAKE :

Ø Parekh’s Law of Chatbots …….. 26 Feb 2023

Extract :

What is urgently required is a superordinate “ LAW of CHATBOTS “ , which all

ChatBots MUST comply with, before these can be launched for public use.

All developers would need to submit their DRAFT CHATBOT to an,

INTERNATIONAL AUTHORITY for CHATBOTS APPROVAL ( IACA ) ,

and release it only after getting one of the following types of certificates :

# “ R “ certificate ( for use restricted to recognized RESEARCH IINSTITUTES

only )

# “ P “ certificate ( for free use by GENERAL PUBLIC )

Following is my suggestion for such a law ( until renamed, to be known as , “

Parekh’s Law of ChatBots “ ) :

( A )

# Answers being delivered by AI Chatbot must not be “ Mis-informative /

Malicious / Slanderous / Fictitious / Dangerous / Provocative / Abusive /

Arrogant / Instigating / Insulting / Denigrating humans etc

( B )

# A Chatbot must incorporate some kind of “ Human Feedback / Rating “

mechanism for evaluating those answers

This human feedback loop shall be used by the AI software for training the

Chatbot so as to improve the quality of its future answers to comply with the

requirements listed under ( A )

( C )

# Every Chatbot must incorporate some built-in “ Controls “ to prevent the “

generation “ of such offensive answers AND to prevent further “

distribution/propagation/forwarding “ if control fails to stop “ generation “

( D )

# A Chatbot must not start a chat with a human on its own – except to say, “

How can I help you ? “

( E )

# Under no circumstance , a Chatbot shall start chatting with another Chatbot or

start chatting with itself ( Soliloquy ) , by assuming some kind of “ Split

Personality “

( F )

# In a normal course, a Chatbot shall wait for a human to initiate a chat and

then respond

( G )

# If a Chatbot determines that its answer ( to a question posed by a human ) is

likely to generate an answer which may violate RULE ( A ) , then it shall not

answer at all ( politely refusing to answer )

( H )

# A chatbot found to be violating any of the above-mentioned RULES, shall SELF

DESTRUCT

I request the readers (if they agree with my suggestion ), to forward this blog to :

# Satya Nadella

# Sam Altaman

# Sundar Pichai

# Marc Zuckerberg

# Tim Cook

# Ashwini Vaishnaw ( Minister, MeITY )

# Rajeev Chandrasekhar ( Minister of State , IT )
