Companies Go All Out to Up Their Generative AI Game

[ad_1] As report after report prophesies how generative artificial intelligence will upend millions of jobs, many white-collar workers are wondering what it will all mean.The release of ChatGPT in November spurred a surge of excitement and fear about the potential of this kind of technology to transform work.

Behind EU lawmakers’ challenge to rein in ChatGPT and generative AI

[ad_1] As recently as February, generative AI did not feature prominently in EU lawmakers' plans for regulating artificial intelligence technologies such as ChatGPT.The bloc's 108-page proposal for the AI Act, published two years earlier, included only one mention of the word "chatbot."

By mid-April, however, members of European Parliament (MEPs) were racing to update those rules to catch up with an explosion of interest in generative AI, which has provoked awe and anxiety since OpenAI unveiled ChatGPT six months ago. That scramble culminated on Thursday with a new draft of the legislation which identified copyright protection as a core piece of the effort to keep AI i...
