EU, Google to develop voluntary AI pact ahead of new
AI rules, EU's Breton says .. Reuters / 25 May
Extract :
Alphabet (GOOGL.O) and
the European Commission aim to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) pact involving European
and non-European companies before rules are
established to govern the technology,
EU industry chief Thierry Breton ( cab-breton-contact@ec.europa.eu ), said on Wednesday.
Breton earlier met Sundar Pichai, CEO
of Google and its parent company Alphabet, in Brussels.
"Sundar and I agreed that we cannot afford to wait until
AI regulation actually becomes applicable, and to work together with all
AI developers to already develop an AI
pact on a voluntary basis ahead of the legal deadline," Breton said in
a statement.
He also urged EU countries and EU
lawmakers to finalise details of the Commission's proposed AI rules before
the end of the year. Both groups have yet to start negotiations to iron out
their differences.
Concern is mounting about
fast-developing AI's potential to upend
the way society and businesses operate. Governments
are scrambling to find a way to rein in
negative consequences without losing the benefits, or stifling innovation.
EU Commissioner for Competition
Margrethe Vestager, who also met Pichai, underlined the need to act together. (
margrethe-vestager-contact@ec.europa.eu )
"We need the AI Act as soon as possible. But AI technology evolves at extreme speed. So we need
voluntary agreement on universal rules for AI
now,"
she said in a tweet.
The European Union and the United States plan to step
up cooperation on
artificial intelligence to establish minimum standards
before legislation enters force, Vestager said on Tuesday.
Commission Vice President Vera
Jourova said she voiced her concerns to Pichai about the spread of pro-Kremlin
war propaganda and disinformation on Google's products and services and the
risks of disinformation in EU and national elections. [ cab-jourova-contact@ec.europa.eu ]
Pichai agreed to look into problems
faced by independent Russian media in monetising their content in Russia on
YouTube, Jourova said.
Centre has started consultations
on principles, guardrails for AI, says MoS IT Rajeev Chandrasekhar
( Eco Times
- 25 May
2023 )
Extract :
The Centre has started internal consultations on
the PRINCIPLES and GUARDRAILS for the use of Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) in
language learning models and by companies, the minister of state for
electronics and information technology, Rajeev Chandrasekhar said
“ Consultation has already started……….. in the Digital India Act, a whole chapter is
going to be devoted to emerging technologies which is not about AI only, but
multiple other technologies as well…….. On how we would REGULATE them through the prism of user harm
“, Chandrasekhar told reporters on the side lines of an event here in New Delhi
Though India would be open to the idea of
companies across the globe coming together to form a partnership to better regulate AI, it would not mean
cessations of government efforts to create additional SAFETY GUIDELINES , he said
“ If there is eventually a United Nations of AI, more power to it.
But that does not stop us from doing what is right for our DIGITAL CITIZENS and
keeping the internet safe and trusted “ , Chandrasekhar said
ChatGPT Will Now Use Microsoft's
Bing AI Search Engine Data
………….. CNet / 24 May 2023
Extract :
Microsoft announced
Tuesday that OpenAI
is using data from the Bing search engine to help improve its ChatGPT
chatbot. Incorporating Bing data allows
the chatbot to provide real-time information to users, but at first, you'll
have to pay a monthly premium for ChatGPT Plus to use it.
Hey
Readers ,
If
ChatGPT were to be responding to above POLL , how would it respond ? Agree or
Disagree ?
My
following question to ChatGPT provides some clue :
My poser to ChatGPT :
I agree but based on the fact that you are a Chatbot yourself ,
and claim to be governed by some moral / ethical / self-regulating STANDARDS,
what %age figures, do you expect , which will NOT surprise you ?
ChatGPT replied :
As an AI language model, I don't have personal opinions or
expectations.
However, based on common ethical considerations and expectations
from chatbots, I would
expect a high percentage of agreement with rules that promote
responsible and safe interactions with chatbots.
These may include rules against delivering misleading, malicious,
or offensive information, as well as rules regarding appropriate initiation of
conversations and self-regulation.
It is difficult to provide an
exact percentage without conducting an actual survey.
However, it is reasonable to
expect a significant majority of respondents to agree with these ethical standards, potentially
exceeding 90% agreement.
