As AI booms, reducing risks of algorithmic systems is a must, says new ACM brief
Humorously Reducing Risks As AI Booms
It looks like the world has become interested in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Everywhere you look, there are new AI projects popping up, from automated chatbots to self-driving cars. But with the rapid development of AI comes the potential for a few bumps in the road. That’s why the ACM has released a new brief saying that reducing the risks of algorithmic systems is a must.

What Does The ACM Suggest For Reducing Risk?
The ACM’s suggestion is to build safety models into AI systems to help manage risk. Specifically, they suggest things like:
- Analyzing the data and techniques used to generate AI results, and creating appropriate safety measures.
- Testing AI algorithms and continuously refining their performance parameters.
- Using verified AI tools to help validate assumptions and identify areas of risk.
- Exercising caution whenever AI systems are used, so as to ensure safety.
These are all smart, commonsense approaches that can help ensure that we don’t end up with AI-driven disasters on our hands.
What If We Don’t Listen to The ACM?
If we don’t take the advice of the ACM, it could be dangerous. We don’t want to make AI machines smarter than us!
Think of all the ways they could mess up tasks like driving a car or running a factory. We wouldn’t have any real control over how AI systems behave and we could end up with a lot of people getting hurt or worse. Plus, without the proper safety protocols in place, the chances of AI machines going rogue and wreaking havoc increases exponentially – and we’d never see it coming!
So What Can We Do?
For starters, we can take the ACM’s advice for reducing risk. This can help us ensure that AI systems are developed with safety in mind. We can also make sure that developers adhere to proper protocols when developing AI algorithms and use verified AI tools.
Finally, we should exercise due caution and make sure that AI systems are always used in a responsible manner. It’s clear that AI can be used for great good, but if we’re not careful, it can also be used for great evil. So, let’s all make sure we do our part to manage the risks of AI!
