Is AI Dangerous? Explanation of Risks and Dangers Using ChatGPT as Example
AI is one of the hottest areas of modern technology and has led to revolutionary advances in many fields.
However, there is also ongoing debate about the potential risks and dangers that AI may pose.
Therefore, this article addresses the question, "Is AI dangerous?".
In particular, this article explains the risks and dangers posed by AI, using ChatGPT as an example.

Relationship between AI and ChatGPT
This section introduces the relationship between AI and ChatGPT.
ChatGPT embodies the dangers of AI.
ChatGPT is an AI specialized for natural language processing tasks, and can automatically generate natural language through artificial intelligence.
Therefore, a malicious person can exploit ChatGPT to spread false information or offensive words.
In addition, if the training data of AI are biased, AI may make biased decisions.
For example, if the training data used by ChatGPT contain discriminatory language, ChatGPT itself may use discriminatory language.
Such bias can cause AI to promote social inequality.
Furthermore, as AI replaces human judgment, humans may lose the ability to make their own decisions.
Trusting and acting on the information provided by ChatGPT is not necessarily the best decision for humans.
If AI takes away the ability of humans to make their own decisions, it will be a major problem for society as a whole.
Finally, one of the risks of AI is technical.
AI systems are complex and subject to bugs and malfunctions.
When these problems occur, AI may behave in unintended ways.
In other words, one must consider the possibility that the information provided by ChatGPT may be incorrect.
The above is an explanation of the risks and dangers of AI, using ChatGPT as an example.
AI is innovative and expected to be useful in many fields.
However, with its progress, its risks and dangers must also be fully discussed.
It is also important to evaluate the social impact of the introduction of AI.
Mitigating Dangers of AI
The following measures can be taken to mitigate the potential risks and hazards that AI may have.
- Consider the ethical aspects of AI: AI designers should develop ethical guidelines to ensure that AI uses unbiased training data and provides useful information to humans.
- Ensure transparency of AI: Clarity about what data AI is using and what decisions it is making will help humans understand and trust its decisions.
- Implement mechanisms to monitor AI: AI operations should be monitored so that appropriate measures can be taken if AI malfunctions.
- Reconsider the relationship between AI and humans: Since AI may replace human jobs, it is required to provide alternatives to jobs lost to AI. Also, we need to consider how AI and humans can coexist and live together in order to realize a better society in which AI can complement human judgment.
AI has the potential to change the future, but with its advances comes the need for careful discussion of risks and dangers.
While the debate over the development and implementation of AI is expected to continue, from an ethical standpoint, we must consider measures to maximize the potential of AI and mitigate its risks and dangers.
Regulatory Status of ChatGPT
Now we introduce the regulatory status of ChatGPT.
The regulatory status of ChatGPT in each country is as follows.
- U.S.: US begins study of possible rules to regulate AI like ChatGPT
- Japan: not consider regulation of ChatGPT as of April 14, 2023
- China: ‘Political propaganda’: China clamps down on access to ChatGPT
- Italy:
- Germany and EU Countries: Italy’s ChatGPT Ban, A Precedent For The Rest Of Europe?
- UK: A pro-innovation approach to AI regulation
- Australia: Artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT to be allowed in Australian schools from 2024
The following are the situations in which introduction or regulation (use prohibition) has begun at the municipal level in various countries.

Summary
We explained the risks and dangers using ChatGPT as an example to address the question, "Is AI dangerous?".
We realized that it is important to understand the advantages and disadvantages of AI by ChatGPT and to make the most of its potential.
In the future, we would like to live with Doraemon (Popular Cat Robot in Japanse Manga/Comic)!
