“If you’ve spent all your time anticipating a tomorrow which hasn’t arrived yet, you won’t fix the issues that we know are present today.” 

– The Rt. Hon. Nick Clegg

“Regulation wasn’t there in time for the era of social media, safety, and misinformation.”

– Caroline Hyde

Key takeaways & next steps:

  • Large language models are sophisticated pattern recognition systems, lacking intrinsic autonomy or agency, and primarily operating as advanced “auto-complete” tools. 
  • Meta’s stance on open-sourcing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies aligns with the company’s beliefs that open access fosters innovation and collaboration, benefiting both the company and the wider research community. 
  • There is a need for clear, industry-wide standards that address transparency and accountability in AI systems. Such standards are crucial to ensure responsible AI development. 
  • Given the global nature of AI development, international collaboration and consensus among various countries and regions is important in shaping AI regulation.
