On Thursday, the White House will host CEOs of leading artificial intelligence firms to discuss dangers and safeguards as the technology attracts the attention of governments and lawmakers around the world, including Alphabet Inc.’s Google and Microsoft.

The popularity of apps like ChatGPT has made the term “generative artificial intelligence” popular this year, spurring a rush among businesses to release comparable products they hope would alter the nature of work.

Millions of users have started experimenting with these tools, whose proponents claim can make medical diagnoses, write screenplays, create legal briefs, and debug software. As a result, there is growing worry that the technology could result in privacy violations, skew employment decisions, and be used in power scams and misinformation campaigns.

Under the condition of anonymity due to the delicate nature of the subject, a senior administration official stated, “We aim to have a frank discussion about the risks we see in current and near-term AI development.” Our guiding principle in this situation is the notion that minimizing the risks must come first if we are to take advantage of the advantages.

Along with Vice President Kamala Harris and administration officials like Biden’s chief of staff Jeff Zients, national security adviser Jake Sullivan, director of the National Economic Council Lael Brainard, and secretary of commerce Gina Raimondo, the meeting on Thursday will include Google’s Sundar Pichai, Microsoft’s Satya Nadella, OpenAI’s Sam Altman, and Anthropic’s Dario Amodei.

The National Science Foundation will invest $140 million to build seven new AI research institutions, according to the administration’s announcements made before the conference. The administration also stated that the White House Office of Management and Budget would issue policy recommendations on the use of AI by the federal government.

Leading AI developers will take part in a public evaluation of their AI systems at the AI Village at DEFCON 31, one of the biggest hacker conventions in the world, which will be run on a platform developed by Scale AI and Microsoft. These developers include Anthropic, Google, Hugging Face, NVIDIA, OpenAI, and Stability AI.

The Republican National Committee created a film depicting a nightmarish future during a second Biden term that was entirely made of AI graphics not long after Biden declared his candidacy for reelection.

As AI technology spreads, it is anticipated that these political adverts will appear more frequently.

The strict approach European governments have taken to tech regulation and to creating standards that firms must abide by or face significant fines have not been adopted by American regulators.

The administration official stated, “We don’t see this as a race,” and added that the administration is closely collaborating with the US-EU Trade & Technology Council on the matter.

Biden issued an executive order in February ordering federal organizations to stop using bias while using AI. A risk management framework and an AI Bill of Rights have also been made public by the Biden administration.

The Federal Trade Commission and the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice both declared last week that they would utilize their legal authority to combat AI-related harm.

Tech giants have repeatedly committed to fight election-related propaganda, false information regarding the COVID-19 vaccine, racial and gender-based messages, pornographic and child exploitation, and nasty messages directed at certain ethnic groups.

But as evidenced by research and recent news stories, they have failed. According to a recent study by the activist NGO Avaaz, just roughly one in five false news pieces in English on six major social media platforms were marked as misleading or taken down. pieces in other European languages were not flagged.
