Recently, the European Parliament, EU member states and the European Commission reached an agreement on the Artificial Intelligence Act, which is considered to be the world's first bill to comprehensively regulate artificial intelligence (AI). After 36 hours of marathon negotiations, the European Parliament, EU member states and the European Commission reached an agreement on the Artificial Intelligence Act on the evening of December 8.
According to a statement from the European Parliament, the agreement reached includes a ban on several AI applications, such as the untargeted scraping of images to create facial recognition libraries, and the creation of rules for systems identified by lawmakers as high-risk systems. Companies that fail to comply with the new regulations will face fines of up to 7% of their global turnover.
Humanity's concern about artificial intelligence seems to have existed since its inception. Previously, the sudden management shock of OpenAI, a global leader in the field of artificial intelligence, was the concern of these people closest to the technology about the development of technology. Should AI run blindfolded, or slow down with safety as a priority?Under the conflict between the two points of view, OpenAI previously staged a wonderful "palace fighting drama". A brief recap of what happened:
On November 17, OpenAI co-founder and CEO Sam Altman was suddenly announced "graduated" by the company's board of directors.
On November 19, Ultraman went to OpenAI to negotiate with the board of directors "for the first and last time" wearing a visitor card. But the board failed to agree to the proposed terms for his reinstatement, and instead found an interim CEO.
On November 20, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella announced that Altman, who had just been fired, would join Microsoft to serve a new advanced artificial intelligence research team, and Microsoft would provide them with the resources they needed to succeed.
On November 21, Open AI released a statement that Ultraman returned to OpenAI.
At that time, the big drama about OpenAI was unsettled and wave after wave, reversed and reversed. With the return of Ultraman, OpenAI's ups and downs of the plot seem to have come to an end, but in fact there are still many unknowns. Why did the board insist on letting Altman go?What evidence or reasons does the board of directors have, regardless of the fact that ninety percent of the internal employees ** forcibly dismissed Ultraman, and the reasons have not been made public so far.
Standing at a crossroads, in the competition between ideals and reality, where will artificial intelligence technology go?
