Why do we need content transparency?

Don't just take our word for it. Here's what the experts are saying about why we all need to better understand where our content comes from.

"[AI tools will] power the next generation of disinformation. The process has already begin. AI is eating itself. Hopefully its creators build in some countermeasures before it decides it likes the taste."

TechCrunch Feb 8, 2023

"Attackers can also hack into systems and cause a chatbot to spread malware or ransomware to users’ devices. Data theft is possible if a chatbot does not properly protect customer data using methods like encryption."

Kaspersky February 2023

"This tool is going to be the most powerful tool for spreading misinformation that has ever been on the internet."

New York Times Feb 8, 2023

"We recognize that these same technologies also raise important challenges that we need to address clearly, thoughtfully, and affirmatively."

Google March, 2022

"If ChatGPT succeeded where Meta’s attempts at generative AI failed, it is mostly because OpenAI cared about keeping its chatbot from creating a toxic spew, whereas Meta did far less to reduce such harms."

Time Feb 13, 2023

"Artificial intelligence will soon become one of the most important, and likely most dangerous, aspects of the metaverse. I’m talking about agenda-driven artificial agents that look and act like any other users but are virtual simulations that will engage us in “conversational manipulation,” targeting us on behalf of paying advertisers."
