Development Of AI Applications
The development of AI applications typically involves many complicated decisions. Developers need to carefully select the model that best fits the use case, as well as collect, clean, and prepare the data that will be used to train the model. Using an unsuitable model or training data impacts the info produced by the AI, leading to inaccurate results and conclusions.
Ensure that industry best practices are followed when developing new AI applications. Encourage companies to disclose the models and data they used when developing their AI applications, allowing for transparency regarding how the application produces results.
Equitable Access
With AI being such a powerful tool, it is critical to provide equitable access to its capabilities. This will help to ensure that AI will be used to benefit the people of America, as opposed to only benefiting a small subset of the population.
Provide education about AI, specifically how to effectively access and use it. Encourage the production of affordable and free AI software, helping to remove financial barriers.
Existential Dangers
While AI provides many benefits, it is also capable of being a danger to society. Concerns include misinformation and “deepfakes”, AI-powered military weapons, and the generation of biased info.
Create laws to regulate the creation and dispersion of AI-generated misinformation, ensure the absolute control of AI weapons, and educate the public regarding the dangers of training AI on biased data.
Privacy Violations
AI has established a critical role in the process of monitoring, collecting, and interpreting data. Consequently, concerns have arisen regarding the privacy of not only the consumers of AI, but also the general public who are unknowingly interacting with AI. Issues include AI-powered surveillance, policing and crime detection that targets minorities, and predatory algorithms.
Create laws to protect people’s privacy from being unknowingly violated, requiring disclosure. Ensure that AI used for policing and crime detection is trained using unbiased data to prevent racial profiling. Prevent companies from using AI-powered algorithms for tracking, targeting, and influencing users to increase profitability.
Legislation To Monitor And Regulate The Responsible Use Of AI Technology
As AI rapidly evolves, it is critical to establish laws to protect the public from potential associated risks. If gone unchecked, AI could result in more issues than solutions for modern society.
Provide education regarding the dangers of AI and why rules and regulations are necessary. Ensure that legislation provides equitable access to AI for everyone, specifically disadvantaged populations.
