> A spokesperson from the Information Commissioner's Office - the UK's data watchdog - told BBC News that firms should not discourage the use of AI in work.
> The spokesperson added: "With AI offering people countless ways to work more efficiently and effectively, the answer cannot be for organisations to outlaw the use of AI and drive staff to use it under the radar.
What the hell is going on with the UK government these days? We do not need AI generated laws/representation. This can open a huge can of worms legally.
- danielbln 2y agoHow about summary? Or document extraction. Classification? How about Q&A over law texts? Generating drafts? Where to draw the line?
- nickthegreek 2y agoFor me the line is the human being who takes that work and submits it anywhere without review/adjustments when necessary. The human should be the gatekeeper. And if they start rubber stamping without reviewing, fire them. QC is a job that’s been with us forever, it needs to be applied more liberally when AI is involved.
