Challenges in Defining Governing Policies for Generative AI

challenges-in-defining-governing-policies

There are several challenges in developing effective governing policies for generative AI:

Rapidly evolving technology: Generative AI is an active and fast-moving area of research. New models and techniques are emerging constantly, along with new capabilities and use cases. Policies need to keep up with this progress to stay relevant, but legislative processes are often slow. By the time a policy is in place, the technology may have evolved further.

Balancing risks and benefits: Policies need to balance limiting risks like bias and manipulation while still enabling innovation and beneficial applications of the technology. Striking the right balance may be difficult, but important for adoption. Overly restrictive policies can be counterproductive.

International coordination: Because generative AI is being developed worldwide, policies in one country or region may not slow progress enough to curb risks. International discussions and coordination on policy are needed to set standards for how this technology should be guided globally. This is challenging given varying priorities and values across borders.

Regulating software and data: Generative AI models are software and algorithms that rely on data. Policies and regulation for these non-physical components of technology are harder to formulate compared to traditional products. Determining how to govern algorithms and data effectively while not stifling innovation will take time.

Addressing long-term challenges: Frameworks are needed not just for current generative AI but also for future advanced systems, including general AI. However, advanced AI does not exist yet, so we are regulating for technologies still years or decades away. The associated challenges are hard to foresee, so policies may need to be abstract or high-level. But more concrete guidelines are typically easier to work with in practice. This tightrope is challenging.

Diversity of stakeholders: Because generative AI spans areas like tech policy, ethics, creativity, and more, stakeholders range from politicians to human artists to researchers and companies. Satisfying and coordinating all groups will be nearly impossible. But policies benefit when diverse perspectives are considered, so including all voices is important for well-rounded and future-looking frameworks, if challenging.

Addressing these challenges requires interdisciplinary efforts, partnerships between policymakers and researchers, continuous review and updating of policies, and international collaboration. With time and work, strong and adaptable frameworks for generative AI can be developed, but managing all these challenges will take skill and nuance. The key is balancing regulation and guidance with permitting progress to continue.

Build Dataproducts

How Dataknobs help in building data products

Enterprises are most successful when they treat data like a product. It enable to use data in multiple use cases. However data product should be designed differently compared to software product.

Be Data Centric and well governed

Generative AI is one of approach to build data product

Generative AI has enabled many transformative scenarios. We combine generative AI, AI, automation, web scraping, ingesting dataset to build new data products. We have expertise in generative AI, but for business benefit we define our goal to build data product in data centric manner.

Well governed data

Data Lineage and Extensibility

To build a commercial data product, create a base data product. Then add extension to these data product by adding various types of transformation. However it lead to complexity as you have to manage Data Lineage. Use knobs for lineage and extensibility

Develop data products with KREATE and AB Experiment

Develop data products and check user response thru experiment

As per HBR " Data product require validation of both 1. whether algorithm work 2. whether user like it". Builders of data product need to balance between investing in data-building and experimenting. Our product KREATE focus on building dataset and apps , ABExperiment focus on ab testing. both are designed to meet data product development lifecycle

Innovate with experiments

Experiment faster and cheaper with knobs

In complex problems you have to run hundreds of experiments. Plurality of method require in machine learning is extremely high. With Dataknobs approach, you can experiment thru knobs.

Why knobs matter

Knobs are levers using which you manage output

See Drivetrain appproach for building data product, AI product. It has 4 steps and levers are key to success. Knobs are abstract mechanism on input that you can control.
