"Stanford's Call for AI Transparency: Urging Tech Companies to Reveal More"

Stanford researchers have developed a scoring system called the Foundation Model Transparency Index to rate the transparency of 10 major A.I. language models, including OpenAI's GPT-4, Google's PaLM 2, and Meta's LLaMA 2. The rankings evaluate criteria such as disclosure of training data sources, hardware information, labor involved, and downstream indicators. The most transparent model was LLaMA 2, scoring 54%, followed by GPT-4 and PaLM 2 at 40%. The researchers argue that increased transparency is crucial as A.I. models become more powerful and widespread, enabling regulators, researchers, and users to better understand their capabilities and potential risks.

The Urgent Need to Address Biased and Deceptive AI Development.

The Center for AI and Digital Policy has filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) urging an investigation into OpenAI's GPT-4, claiming it violates commerce laws by deceiving and putting people at risk. The non-profit research organization has called for independent oversight and evaluation of commercial AI products in the US, and for the FTC to halt all further commercial deployment of OpenAI's GPT-based products until it complies with the FTC's rules. OpenAI has admitted GPT-4 can perpetuate biases, generate harmful text, and spread false information that misleads users.
