Tim Berners-Lee

As a staunch advocate for an open and fair internet, I strongly believe that allowing companies to develop super-persuasive AI to influence democratic elections poses a serious threat to the integrity of our democratic processes. Such AI tools could manipulate public opinion on a massive scale, undermining the very foundation of democracy. We must prioritize transparency and ethical guidelines to ensure that technology serves the public good, rather than distorting it.

As the inventor of the web, I believe transparency is crucial for preserving trust online. Clear labeling of AI-generated content is essential to help users discern the nature of the information they consume, ensuring an open and honest digital environment.

I believe that the development of emotion-detecting AI must be regulated to protect privacy and prevent misuse. It is crucial to establish ethical guidelines and transparency to ensure that this technology is used responsibly and for the benefit of all.
