Ethical and Legal Limitations of Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence, or simply AI (artificial intelligence), has now entered our lives forever. The controversy around this, of course, is not new at all. But when Open AI introduced the infamous ChatGPT — an online application in which you can communicate with a robot that responds “in a human way” — many began to worry about the role that Artificial intelligence in our lives.

A few days ago, the German magazine Die Aktuelle published an “interview” with the seven-time Formula 1 champion. Michael Schumacher, completely created by artificial intelligence. Schumacher has not appeared in public since 2013, when he was involved in a very serious accident while skiing in the French Alps. The cover of the magazine read “Schumacher’s first interview” and contained statements such as “my life has completely changed since the accident.” It was a terrible time for my wife, my children and my entire family. I was so badly hurt that I was in a sort of induced coma for months because otherwise my body couldn’t cope.”

Although the magazine stated at the end of the article that the interview was a product of artificial intelligence, Schumacher’s family decided to sue, deeming the interview “offensive”, according to the Guardian.

A few days earlier another AI software composed the song in imitation of the popular Canadian singer Drake. The song, shared online by user @ghostwriter, imitated not only the voice of the Canadian, but also the style of his lyrics, referring to his personal problems. It appeared on Good Friday and by Monday it was heard by millions of users and was already on the most popular music sharing platforms. According to the BBC, the artist’s record company sued said platforms for violating copyright laws and forced them to remove the song.

Photographer Boris Eldagsen, 52, won a Sony photo contest last week for his black-and-white work of two women. But these women never existed. The photo was a product of artificial intelligence, so realistic that it even managed to fool the jury. Eldagsen, of course, declined the award, but Sony said in a statement that it no longer considers it possible to maintain a relationship with the artist. He later stated that he considered artificial intelligence to be harmless, but that many art historians would now be asked to reflect on their aesthetic criteria.

After all this, the British magazine The Economist recently published a list of professions that it predicts will reduce the number of human resources employed in them, replacing them with artificial intelligence services in the coming years.
