Go slow with AI: Pichai

Google, California-based, is in the process of developing and implementing AI across all its services, but still it deploys the technology at slow pace and with circumspection. On the other hand, OpenAI has accelerated its AI implementation with ChatGPT and GPT4.

Sundar Pichai, Google CEO, says that we do not know many things about the new technology and the technology is advancing very fast. Google is catching up by infusing its products with generative AI. Dall-E, the image generating product of OpenAI has shown a lot of potential, and many businesses from Silicon Valley and China would like to offer similar products.

Pichai is concerned about the risks of AI, especially deep fake videos. This may require regulation. It has the potential to harm the society. AI teaches itself things, independent of the programmer. One of the Google’s AI systems taught itself Bengali. It can translate all of Bengali composition. This surprises the experts. It is called Black Box, which is not fully understood. There are some ideas as to why this happens, but still it needs more research. We also do not understand how human mind works completely.

AI brings glaring flaws such as fake news, deepfakes and weaponisation. These are hallucinations. All these hallucinations have not been fully solved. All models have this as an issue.

In future, there could be wide ranging global regulation for AI. Technology has to be deployed so that it benefits the society. However, wrong deployment could harm the society. EU law makers urged the world leaders to discuss the guiding principles for the control and deployment of AI.
