A $100,000 prize will be awarded to those who can find a way to manage AI so that it does not give biased or prejudiced answers.

Critics say AI systems like ChatGPT are inherently biased because of the input they use to shape opinions. Users may find examples of racism or sexism in AI-generated products. This concern is even greater as AI is integrated into search engines like Alphabet’s Google and Microsoft’s Bing, which can produce misleading information that users find convincing.

ChatGPT has exploded in popularity since its launch in November 2022 and is on track to become the fastest growing app ever. Unfortunately, its viral popularity has come with legitimate concerns about its potential social impact.

AI image generators can create “photos” that are increasingly difficult to distinguish from reality, and voice cloners can easily imitate the voices of famous artists and personalities. Soon, video generators will evolve, making the products even more disturbing.

Despite its undeniable creative and productivity potential, AI in general could threaten the livelihoods of countless content creators while posing new security and privacy risks and increasing misinformation.

The latest example of AI misuse is the photo of the “explosion” at the Pentagon that went viral on May 22. The photo of black smoke billowing from the corner of the Pentagon was discovered to be a product of AI. However, in the short time it appeared, the photo also caused chaos in the stock market. Just after 10 a.m. on May 22, New York time, when the fake photo was circulated, S&P 500 stocks fell about 0.3% to the session low.
