We need to act, and you can help!
Pause and talk manifest. Let's slow down AI development and think.
The rate of artificial intelligence (AI) improvement has reached an unparalleled level, with exponential growth leading to uncharted routes and results. This technology's progress has reached a stage where it is difficult for humans to keep up, leaving us with little time or space to think, assess, and make deliberate judgments with global consensus.
The race to create artificial intelligence (AI) is now dominated by big firms investing billions of dollars in it, leaving the general people as observers of what AI can and will do to their lives. We are seeing the rapid growth of artificial intelligence, which provides little room for critical examination or consideration of the technology's repercussions.
This manifest is a call to action for all AI community stakeholders, including academics, researchers, developers, policymakers, and the general public, to regulate the rise of AI and emphasize its responsible application. We must collaborate to guarantee that artificial intelligence is created and utilized in ways that advance the common good and benefit all of humankind. We can no longer afford to merely observe the evolution of this technology; it is time to seize control and define its destiny.
We, the signatories, think that the development of artificial intelligence (AI) must be controlled. It is imperative that we, as humans, take the time to examine what we want to develop with AI and what AI will replace in our lives, as well as the reasons for doing so.
We must emphasize economic justice and guarantee that the creation and use of artificial intelligence do not perpetuate current imbalances and prejudice. Additionally, we must be careful in tackling prejudice in AI systems and algorithms, which can perpetuate discrimination and exclusion. It is essential that we work towards a more inclusive and fair future for everybody, in which AI is developed and utilized for the benefit of mankind as a whole.
We are aware that the development of AI to date has been criticized several times for propagating discrimination and bias, and it is imperative that we take measures to prevent such problems in the future. Ethical issues must be at the forefront of AI research and usage, and we must work toward a future in which AI serves the interests of all members of society.
We should not pursue the maximal development of artificial intelligence without contemplating its potential repercussions. We must be proactive in establishing rules and guidelines for the development and application of this potent technology to ensure that it is used for the good of all humanity.
We think that an open-source, accessible-to-all form of artificial intelligence should be prioritized so that everyone has access to the technology and may utilize it for useful purposes. This strategy will ensure that AI is utilized for the advantage of society as a whole, as opposed to a privileged few.
Let's hit pause and talk.
