The Trump administration recently published “America’s AI Action Plan”. One of the first policy actions from the document is to eliminate references to misinformation, diversity, equity, inclusion, and climate change from the NIST’s AI Risk Framework.
Lacking any sense of irony, the very next point states LLM developers should ensure their systems are “objective and free from top-down ideological bias”.
Par for the course for Trump and his cronies, but the world should know what kind of AI the US wants to build.
The funny thing about not specifically dealing with misinformation in an LLM is that not trying to account for misinformation will lead to very wild responses in terms of accuracy, and I don’t mean things relating to politics, but things like putting glue into a pizza recipe.
