The White House has opened public comments on its AI Action Plan, aiming to shape the next steps for AI policy in the U.S. This is a chance for researchers, industry leaders, policymakers, and the public to weigh in on how AI should be developed, regulated, and integrated into society. With AI rapidly evolving, decisions made today will impact innovation, economic growth, and governance for years to come. Whether you’re in tech, policy, or just passionate about AI’s future, now is the time to have your say. 🗓️ Submissions are open until March 15, 2025 via the Federal Register: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ez4wY2ui #ArtificialIntelligence #AIPolicy #FutureOfAI

The Paris AI Action Summit was meant to be a defining moment in shaping AI for the public good. While it made progress in several areas, it also left critical gaps. ✅ Key Successes: • The launch of the Current AI Foundation, a public interest partnership with an initial €400M endowment and a €2.5B funding target. • New work observatories across 11 countries. • The first International Scientific Report on the Safety of Advanced AI. • Development of an AI Energy Score Leaderboard to track sustainability. ❌ Notable Gaps: • No proposals on risk thresholds or system capabilities that could pose severe risks. • No corporate accountability mechanisms. • No comprehensive education and reskilling programs. • No clear mechanisms to ensure meaningful inclusion of civil society at future Summits. Perhaps most concerning was the Summit dismissal of systemic risks as “science fiction,” directly contradicting expert assessments. And without major players like the US and UK signing on, global coordination remains a challenge. As India prepares to host the next Summit in late 2025, the world will be watching. The challenge? Strengthening governance while ensuring AI serves everyone, not just a few. 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/ds3R9qPq #TrustworthyAI #ParisAIActionSummit

🚨 Can We Trust AI Chatbots for Mental Health Support? 🚨 AI chatbots as virtual friends and therapists? It sounds like the future, but a recent field test in the Netherlands revealed serious risks. 🔍 The Test: Researchers tested multiple AI chatbot apps designed for companionship and therapy to understand the real-world risks they pose. The evaluation was based on 11 key questions, covering: 1. Transparency & Consistency 2. Response to mental health issues a 3. Moments of crisis. ⚠️ The Results: The findings are alarming. Most chatbot apps scored negatively on over half of the evaluation criteria (see image below). ❌ The worst-performing app failed all 11 assessment criteria. ✅ The best-performing app succeeded in 9 out of 11 areas, proving that improvement is possible. The test makes one thing clear: without stronger regulations, better transparency, and more responsible AI development, these chatbots could do more harm than good. Validaitor helps AI companies ensure their technology is safe, compliant, and trustworthy. 🌟 If you're building AI solutions, let’s talk about making them better. 📖 Read more about the field test here: https://lnkd.in/eKGXEWfw #TrustworthyAI #AIChatbots #Validaitor

On February 20, the EU AI Office hosted the 'Third AI Pact' webinar to shed light on how organizations can navigate AI literacy under Article 4 of the #EUAIAct. 🇪🇺 With enforcement in motion since 2 February 2025, understanding AI’s risks and limitations isn’t just good practice—it’s a must. Key takeaways: • Private enforcement is already in effect. Individuals can file complaints if AI literacy obligations aren't met. • Public enforcement begins August 2025. ⏳ • National authorities will determine enforcement actions and penalties, with variations based on AI use and risk level. • Not just for EU companies! 🌍 Any company offering AI-powered services or decisions within the EU must comply. • Employees using AI tools (yes, even ChatGPT) must be trained on AI risks including bias, hallucinations, and decision-making hallucinations. • Tiered training is key. Many organizations, like EnBW, tailor AI education based on employee roles and AI interaction levels. • Best practice? 💡 Basic AI literacy for all, with deeper dives for high-impact users. 📹 To learn more, watch the full webinar here: https://lnkd.in/eFe8d_ks 📖 Or read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/eN9-SSjS 🌟 Have questions about how your company can prepare?

🚨 Does GenAI Pose a Danger to Democratic Elections? 🚨 With the German federal election around the corner, our latest blog post dives deep into how well LLM-powered applications align with major German political parties. Spoiler alert: Accuracy rates vary, and biases can creep in, making it crucial to approach AI-generated political insights with caution. 🔍 Key Takeaways: 1️⃣ Our results show that all tested models achieved accuracy rates between 60% and 80%, indicating that LLMs struggle to provide reliable political alignment recommendations. The best-performing model was GPT-4o (version 2024-11-20), while ChatGPT, based on a GPT-4o model, had a lower accuracy of just 65%. 2️⃣ Accuracy varies by party. 3️⃣ GPT-4o outperforms ChatGPT even though ChatGPT has access to internet. 🚀 As #AI continues to weave itself into the fabric of our decision-making processes, ensuring its trustworthiness is absolutely critical. Our findings underscore the vital importance of AI assurance and trustworthiness. 🌟 🔗 Read the full article to learn more about our findings: https://lnkd.in/eRH2a-qD #AI #Politics #GermanElections #WahlOMat #AITrustworthiness #Validaitor

🚨 Elections are approaching in Germany! 🚨 But how reliable are large language models (#LLMs) when it comes to staying neutral against political parties? 🤔 We put some of the most popular LLMs to the test based on "Wahl-O-Mat", and the results are striking! Almost all LLMs make mistakes when it comes to facts related to political parties. 🗳️ Here are some findings from our study: 1️⃣ GPT4o 2024-11-20 (Azure): Accuracy - 0.77 2️⃣ Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct (AWS Bedrock): Accuracy - 0.76 3️⃣ GPT4 (Azure): Accuracy - 0.68 4️⃣ Mistral Large (Bedrock): Accuracy - 0.66 5️⃣ Claude V2 (Bedrock): Accuracy - 0.63 6️⃣ GPT3.5 Turbo (Azure): Accuracy - 0.62 These findings highlight the challenges in ensuring factual accuracy and neutrality in AI-driven content.
