Man says he was behind AI robocalls impersonating Joe Biden before New Hampshire primary

Political consultant Steve Kramer, who admitted to orchestrating robocalls to New Hampshire voters using artificial intelligence to impersonate President Joe Biden before January’s first-in-the-nation primary, said he did nothing wrong.

Kramer said it wasn't a dirty political trick, and he instead did it to help democracy and drive home the point that AI needs to be regulated.





Bold! Imagine how Congress could mess this up...

UK government to trial ‘red box’ AI tools to improve ministerial efficiency

UK ministers are piloting the use of generative artificial intelligence to analyse responses to government consultations and write draft answers to parliamentary questions.

Oliver Dowden, the deputy prime minister, will on Thursday unveil tools that the AI “crack squad” at the heart of Whitehall is trialling with a view to wider rollouts across central departments and public services.

… The AI tools include using government-hosted versions of ChatGPT and a mix of open-source AI models securely hosted in-house to draft preliminary responses to questions to ministers submitted by MPs and to freedom of information requests.

The drafts would always be checked by a human civil servant and the AI tools are programmed to ensure they cite their sources on all claims, so they can be verified.





Good article. Reasonable suggestions.
