OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, is testing how to get broad input into decisions that affect its artificial intelligence, its president Greg Brockman said on Monday, Reuters reported.

At the AI ​​Forward event in San Francisco, hosted by Goldman Sachs Group Inc and SV Angel, Brockman discussed the broad outlines of how the creator of the wildly popular chatbot aims to regulate artificial intelligence around the world.

One of the messages he previewed is reminiscent of WikipediaAI’s model, which he says requires people with different opinions to come together and agree on encyclopedia articles.

“We don’t just sit in Silicon Valley and think we can write these rules for everybody,” he said of AI policy. “We’re starting to think about a democratic decision-making process.”

Another idea discussed by Brockman, which OpenAI detailed in its blog post on Monday, is that governments around the world should coordinate efforts to ensure safe AI development.

Since the launch of ChatGPT on November 30, the technology has captivated audiences, making the app the fastest growing app. AI has also become a concern because of its ability to create fake images and other disinformation.

Brockman looked to Wikipedia and other sources to assess the path of AI development. He and OpenAI said a body such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) could impose limits on deployment, verify compliance with safety standards and monitor the use of computing power.

Another proposal was a global agreement to limit the annual growth of AI capabilities, or a joint global project in which major governments could participate.

Last week, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, proposed various ideas to US lawmakers to set safe limits on artificial intelligence, including requiring licenses to develop the most complex AI models and establishing an appropriate governance regime.
