Should the government regulate artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure ethical use?

The government should fund research to create open source AI technology, and prevent patents on the same from accruing to the private sector.

Yes, but it needs to be regulated by people who have current understanding of AI and software engineering.

It is too late to regulate AI - we need to regulate life around living with AI in the form of UBI or a similar income stabilization measure.

Yes, but regulations should be determined by a non-patisian lottery of AI-educated individuals in a variety of fields (machine learning, dark data, social media, network infrastructure, etc)

No, the goverment should not regulate it it should be for example, the SAG to regulate AI use in movies television and other media forms

There is no way to prevent bad actors from using AI for unethical use. Just make laws to punish those who do use it unethically.

No, government is the last group I would want monitoring ethics.

Government and ethics seem to be pulling further apart daily. It would be the last place I would expect to recommend what is ethical and what isn't.

Yes, but regulation should be done carefully and only to ensure that models which directly threaten human existence are contained

An independent governing body should establish a code of ethics and corporations, governments and institutions should not do business with anyone operating outside of that code.

"regulating AI" is too broad of a question. AI is something that is used in a myriad of ways in nearly every major industry today. Specific regulations should be applied for specific industries, but there should not be universal regulations, as they would be too nonspecific to enforce.

Yes, but this requires updating and correcting our outdated copyright, trademark, and intellectual property laws.

Somebody should, but the government does not have a track record of being trustworthy enough to regulate the ethical use of anything.

To a certain extent yes, however I don't think they should have full control.

yes, and have a tax for companies that replace human staff with ai

No, I don’t trust the government to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure ethical use

Hypothetically if a governing entity could ethically be held accountable for the oversight of AI then yes it would be a good option.

As long as other countries continue to develop AI, we should as well.

For safety reasons and also to keep Americans jobs in their hands.

Government regulations don’t often lead to ethical use. The government itself would more than likely be the culprit of unethical use.

The use of AI varies. It has many pros and many cons.

Yes, but there should be limits on how and what they can regulate.

yes, but only for really harmful and dangerous parts of the AI.

only if it is going to be dangerous to our and other countries

the government should ensure AI is not being used for harmful purposes, but not regulate all of it.

I do believe regulation is needed when it comes to being sold to the public but it can be looked into

Government should regulate some aspects, but not control what people do with AI

A third party government approved and supervised organization should be created using technical, objective, minds that pass multiple ethical screening tests in relations to general human ethics in society and ethics for technology specifically.

No, the government cannot be trusted to decide what is ethical and unethical

The government should not regulate what is generated by AI, but it should be allowed to regulate it to prevent bias being included in the training data.

Gov't regulation of AI would not "ensure" anything; the Gov't does not well understand AI (as perhaps the private sector does not, either) and has no coherent strategy for regulating beyond current legal constraints (in existing law).

I would say yes, but I use AI for unethical use, so if I put yes I'd be a hypocrite, so no

Yes, but only for mandated safety of an individual

As long as the AI isn't being used in any harmful manner.

To a degree, certain uses of ai should be limited depending on the use of the ai and its prominent viewer and user base

Yes, but only for things where companies are liable for any misuse or a marker stating that the content is AI generated and not real

No this should be left up to the companies that implement ai

A little bit in some areas such as doctor offices.

Yes but not to limit data but to make sure people can't find ways to make thing such as nuclear bombs and stuff

Somewhat. Things that would effect careers should definitely be regulated.

No, I do not trust the government to determine ethical use.

But it should be a strict laws and Mandate on ethical laws for tech companies and responsibility of the corporations to abide by laws

Yes, people should be protected from AI. People who use AI to create sexual videos with people without their consent should be criminally charged. AI shouldn't be used for choosing people for jobs either because the AI could be biased from given data or the AI could be tricked or fail to choose suitable people. I also think AI art should be regulated where the AI art must say it's AI-produced right on the image and that the human doesn't own it since it's stealing other people's art in the process.

Depending on the situation AI is being used in, it should be regulated. Only situationally however, as it has many benefits aside from those we are already aware of.

As long as no one becomes over reliant on it I don't think it should matter, but I do think that over reli8ance would become a pig problem if it were to happen.

Yes, but not just for ethical use. The government should also ensure that the AI being used stays isolated and does not expand beyond its purpose. In other words, the government should regulate the protection against AI and ensure that it is being used in a positive manner.

No

Yes
