Hub AI and society
Artificial Intelligence is a key technology that can help us solve major societal challenges such as climate change, energy supply, healthcare, education or logistics. AI can solve specific problems more effectively by supporting us in decision-making, automating solutions and thus scaling them, or discovering completely new solutions. But the use of AI also poses new risks, for example when it comes to surveillance or questions of social justice.
What is our society doing with AI – and what is AI doing to our society? We shed light on this question in our AI and Society Content Hub.
Adobe is selling AI-generated, photorealistic user-uploaded images of the Israel-Hamas war on its stock image subscription service, Adobe Stock. Although the platform requires submitters to disclose if images were generated with AI and labels them as such, these images have been used across the internet without any indication they are fake, Crikey reports. The use of such images raises concerns about transparency, the potential for misinformation, and the labor implications of using AI-generated images instead of on-the-ground photographers. Adobe has yet to comment on the issue.
