AI companies including OpenAI and Anthropic have signed up to suppress terrorist content, joining the Christchurch Call to Action - a project started by French President Emmanuel Macron and then New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern in the wake of the 2019 mass killing at a Christchurch, N.Z. mosque.
Government leaders and companies declared that "without safeguards, it is inevitable advanced AI capabilities will be weaponized by terrorists and violent extremists" - and conceded in a paper obtained by Axios that a "massive amount" of terrorist content has been disseminated since Hamas attacked Israel Oct. 7.
Tech Against Terrorism calculates around 5,000 AI-generated pieces of terror content are created weekly, and users of far-right message board site 4chan have been found to use Bing's AI image generator to create Nazi imagery.
