Speaking the general public within the congressional publication “House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on Information Technology Hearing” A Testimony by Jack Clark, Director, of OpenAI conveys that reforms regarding ethical formalities are needed when working with AI to ensure safety among information. He goes to provide the example that deep fakes have caused significant upheaval in recent times. Clark explains “… at MIT of President Trump's face being mapped onto the face of President Obama n2, and vice versa” (Clark, 2018). The example demonstration shown in the quote provided not only shows the negative aspect it can have on politics but that indeed anyone is at risk even the presidents. Despite this being a huge concern, Clark evokes a sense of hope through specific reforms still being able to be made. Through the creation of ethical norms, AI can be regulated, including the creation of deep fakes. Ultimately this ensures the lack of fake news to come & safety among the use of AI, also it will immensely minimize the potential of conflict & harm. In order to make this reform work as designated, it must be proceeded by governmental reforms to complete this issue.
