Where do we stand on using ChatGPT?
The Empire Club Foundation recognizes the potential benefits of using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve efficiency and productivity in the workplace. However, we also acknowledge the importance of using AI responsibly and ethically, particularly when it comes to generating content.
Our policy aims to provide guidelines for the responsible use of AI-generated content, emphasizing the need for proofing, editing, fact-checking, and using AI-generated content as a starting point, not the finished product.
Requirements for AI-generated content:
- Proofing: All AI-generated content must be proofread and checked for accuracy by a human before being published or shared. This includes checking for spelling errors, grammar mistakes, and factual inaccuracies.
- Editing: AI-generated content must be edited to ensure that it is well-written, coherent, and engaging. This includes ensuring that the content is structured in a logical manner and that it is appropriate for the intended audience.
- Fact-checking: AI-generated content must be fact-checked to ensure that all information is accurate and up-to-date. This includes verifying sources, checking statistics, and ensuring that any claims made in the content are supported by evidence.
- Starting point, not the finished product: AI-generated content should be viewed as a starting point, not the finished product. While AI can provide a valuable tool for generating content, it cannot replace the creativity and critical thinking skills of human writers and editors.
Guidelines for responsible use of AI-generated content:
- Transparency: All AI-generated content must be clearly labeled as such, and the use of AI in generating content should be transparent to employees and customers.
- Data privacy: We must ensure that any personal or sensitive data used to train AI models is handled with appropriate care and that any AI-generated content that contains such data is handled in compliance with data protection laws.
- Fairness: We must ensure that AI-generated content does not discriminate against any individual based on their protected characteristics, such as race, gender, age, or disability.
- Liability: Our company must take responsibility for any harm caused by AI-generated content, and we must have insurance coverage to protect against potential legal claims.
