Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has left the door open to the output of that talking machine called ChatGPT the territory of the European Union in case the company is not able to comply with the artificial intelligence law (IA) in which Brussels works. “The current draft of the EU AI Law would be over-regulating, but we have heard that it is going to be withdrawn,” the executive said in statements to the agency.Reuters‘. The same outlet points out that the company will try to adapt to the regulation before making any decision.
It should be remembered that, a few days ago, the legislators of the European Parliament gave the green light to a new draft dedicated to establishing mandatory standards for any system based on artificial intelligence. In this, it was pointed out that content-generating tools, such as the popular intelligent chat, should be designed “to avoid the generation of illegal content.”
Companies will also be required to “publish summaries of copyrighted data used for training” in order to compensate the owners of the information used.
And it is that, in the end, machines like ChatGPT do not invent anything. All the information they share with users comes from all kinds of internet sources. Also from the data that Internet users enter into the tool, which are used for their training.
To date, OpenAI has not been especially transparent with the origin of the data that the tool has been trained with, although it has been shown to use data that is protected by copyright.
Currently, both the EU and several countries, including Spain, are studying whether ChatGPT, specifically, violates European data protection regulations. Italy went so far as to block access to the tool a little over a month ago for this reason.
Over the last few days, Sam Altman has repeated on several occasions that in order to prevent artificial intelligence from becoming a problem for society, it is important that it be regulated. Last Monday, in Madrid, he stated that an international agency similar to the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) should be created for his control. Something that he also dropped in his statement before the United States Senate last week.
