Experts Say the Secret to Responsible AI is Just Adding Humans, Despite Big Tech Layoffs

In the quest for responsible artificial intelligence, industry insiders say that adding humans in the loop is key to ensure that AI acts ethically and fairly. However, Big Tech companies have recently laid off a significant portion of their AI ethics teams. As AI continues to grow and become more sophisticated, hiring managers predict that workers with high emotional intelligence and creativity will be more sought after. Leaders like Elon Musk have called for a "pause" or temporary halt in AI development to consider its effects on society. Nonetheless, experts say that the secret to responsible AI is no secret at all, and it has been known for years. Adding a human element in the training and regular check-ins ensure that AI is coded for desired behavior, preventing spewing of misinformation or discrimination.
