Accountability for AI in the Age of Fake News

The increasing use of AI in generating content has exacerbated the spread of fake news as it can be done quickly and affordably. There is a call for accountability in the usage of AI, particularly in ensuring transparency in how generative AI models are trained. Currently, generative AI models crawl the internet without discerning between reliable and unreliable sources of information. The focus is on understanding who the AI models are paying attention to and ensuring that they prioritize accurate and credible sources. Additionally, there is a need for generative AI companies to disclose who and what they are training their data on. This call for transparency is crucial to address the proliferation of fake news and ensure that AI is used responsibly in content generation.
