For this extra credit prompt, I read Alfredo Deambrosis article titled “The 8 Ethical Concerns Raised by AI Images and Video.” We all know Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a cool tool that’s used to enhance our brains with thinking and learning, or so we think. A big issue with AI imaging and video creation is training. Important internet figures like athletes and celebrities, often find random videos or images of themselves online that are made by AI, and do not reflect good upon them. These AI systems learn from these images online, spreading or making them in the wrong way for people to see. This also reflects upon privacy, which is a big topic of our class and this article. It seems as if AI is violating these rules of privacy.
My future job is something I’ve wanted to revolve around sports media or broadcasting. Photography is a large part of the media aspect, as many sports organizations have their own photographers who bring in tons of money each year for the team. With AI now being able to generate images faster and more efficiently, maybe the sports world could soon move away from hiring professional photographers/videographers. This could put people in this field out of a job, and they are left trying to find something else to do. This goes back to when the article and our class refer to AI being unethical, because they may be putting many jobs at risk in the future.
Many users see things online and instantly believe them without knowing the true backstory. Artificial intelligence can publish fake or biased videos/pictures, which is scary. This makes AI unethical, and it can cause people to believe false propaganda that is only up for clicks and views. I hope some rules and regulations will follow in behind this, and that hopefully more serious laws about artificial intelligence publishing fake content become more intense. Overall, I believe there are many unethical features while using AI, I’m sure someone could name at least five off the top of their head. The future is hard to predict, and AI will only continue to get smarter and smarter, which is troubling to consider.
