Open Letter from Artificial Intelligence Researchers to Meta and OpenAI

recently to productive artificial intelligence While the interest in technology is increasing, almost every technology company is pursuing the development of its own artificial intelligence. Companies keep their development processes and information secret in order to prevent malicious people from exploiting the systems. According to artificial intelligence researchers, this situation hinders research.

Call to open systems

More than 100 researchers, He called on companies working on artificial intelligence to open their systems.

In the open letter sent to companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta and Midjourney, technology companies were called to provide a legal and technical safe harbor for researchers who want to study their products. In the letter, “Prolific AI companies are actively blocking research for which researchers can hold them accountable.” Avoid making the same mistake as social media platforms must.” expressions were used.

Artificial intelligence models are frequently the subject of lawsuits, and especially copyright disputes have flared up. Reid Southern While the film studio artist named stated that he was banned many times for producing copyrighted images of movie characters, Meta also LLaMA 2 He said that they would pull the content if they saw such violations in the most advanced language model called.
