Scarlett Johansson is urging the U.S. government to prioritize legislation that limits the misuse of AI, especially following the emergence of a deepfake video featuring her and other celebrities. The deepfake promotes antisemitism in the context of recent comments by Kanye West. Johansson emphasizes that AI presents greater risks of escalating hate speech than individual offenders. She has been vocal about AI issues, previously suing an AI app developer and criticizing OpenAI's use of a voice resembling hers. Despite some legislative efforts, progress in AI regulation has been slow.
It is terrifying that the U.S. government is paralyzed when it comes to passing legislation that protects all of its citizens against the imminent dangers of A.I.
I am a Jewish woman who has no tolerance for antisemitism or hate speech of any kind... the potential for hate speech multiplied by A.I. is a far greater threat.
