Serious concerns about the development of artificial intelligence

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, the developer of ChatGBT, stressed before the US Senate on Tuesday the need to develop regulatory frameworks for artificial intelligence, following his program stunned the world.

Council members expressed grave concerns regarding the implications of developing artificial intelligence, and Senator Richard Blumenthal opened the hearing with a voice message, very similar to his voice, which included the recitation of a text prepared by computer software.

“If you were listening from home, you might think it was my voice and it was my words, but in fact, that voice wasn’t mine,” Blumenthal said.

More than just research experiments

Blumenthal noted that AI technologies “are more than just research experiments. They are no longer science fiction fantasies, they are real and fresh” before us.

Altman, during a hearing in the US Senate on the impact of artificial intelligence, urged Congress to impose new rules on big technology companies, despite sharp political divisions that have for years obstructed legislation aimed at regulating the Internet sector.

“We believe that regulatory intervention by governments will be necessary to mitigate the risks of models that are becoming more robust,” Altman said, citing challenges such as disinformation and job cuts.

The “ChatGBT” software sparked widespread interest in the world in generative artificial intelligence following it was introduced to use at the end of last year, due to its ability to create elaborate texts such as emails, articles, poems, informational programs or translations, in just seconds.

But the dissemination of fake images on social media, more real than the real ones, generated by apps such as Midjourney, alerted to the dangers of manipulating public opinion.

Scientific figures have also called for suspending the development of stronger systems, pending the issuance of a law to better regulate them.

“OpenAI was founded on the belief that artificial intelligence has the potential to improve nearly every aspect of our lives, but it also creates serious risks,” Altmann continued.

But Altman stressed that the artificial intelligence developed by “Open AI” will be able to address “some of the biggest challenges facing humanity, such as climate change and curing cancer (patients).”
