“Artificial intelligence must not be just a business. It must be for the common good”
The Saturday supplement of Dela publishes an interview with Dr Maja Bogataj Jančič, who talks about the challenges of regulation, the risks and benefits of new technology, and humanity’s need for a new social compact.
“I believe this technology has huge potential benefits. It can solve major problems that plague humanity. But we need to manage this most powerful technology better; we need to harness its potential for the common good, while reducing its dangers. The key question is whether the existing mechanisms and institutions allow development to move in the direction of universal benefit for all.” This is one of the main points.
We invite you to read the full interview here.

This short paper presents potential challenges that copyright poses to the training of the machines on large amount of data. Different jurisdictions address these issues differently. In the USA the legality of these activities is tested in several court cases. Do gentlemen’s agreements and pragmatic symbiosis known from the “search engines business model” provide sufficient basis and/or incentive for the business model of “making” generative AI business model as well?
