AI Tools Must Guard Against Hacks and Health Data Leaks, US Says

The risks that generative artificial intelligence models will leak private health information, enable cyberattacks, and produce incorrect answers must be addressed by the technology sector, according to guidance laid out Friday by US government scientists. The National Institute of Standards and Technology called on technology companies to carefully review the data they use to train their models to ensure it doesn't include confidential information. It also emphasized the need to make it harder for humans to direct models to create obscene images.

Generative AI, a type of algorithm that can create text, images, and video in response to prompts from humans, poses challenges in maintaining data privacy and preventing misuse. The guidelines, though voluntary, aim to set a standard for global leaders and technology companies to discuss guardrails for the technology. Companies like Cisco Systems Inc. and International Business Machines Corp. are actively involved in shaping AI policies and strategies.
