• Abstract summary: As AI technologies advance, ethical considerations, transparency, data privacy, and their impact on human labor intersect with the drive for innovation and efficiency. Our research explores publicly accessible large language models (LLMs) that often operate on the periphery, away from mainstream scrutiny. Specifically, we examine Gab AI, a platform that centers around unrestricted communication and privacy, allowing users to interact freely without censorship.

• Abstract: This paper investigates the impacts of the rapidly evolving landscape of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) development. Emphasis is given to how organizations grapple with a critical imperative: reevaluating their policies regarding AI usage in the workplace. As AI technologies advance, ethical considerations, transparency, data privacy, and their impact on human labor intersect with the drive for innovation and efficiency. Our research explores publicly accessible large language models (LLMs) that often operate on the periphery, away from mainstream scrutiny. These lesser-known models have received limited scholarly analysis and may lack comprehensive restrictions and safeguards. Specifically, we examine Gab AI, a platform that centers around unrestricted communication and privacy, allowing users to interact freely without censorship. Generative AI chatbots are increasingly prevalent, but cybersecurity risks have also escalated. Organizations must carefully navigate this evolving landscape by implementing transparent AI usage policies. Frequent training and policy updates are essential to adapt to emerging threats. Insider threats, whether malicious or unwitting, continue to pose one of the most significant cybersecurity challenges in the workplace. Our research is on the lesser-known publicly accessible LLMs and their implications for workplace policies. We contribute to the ongoing discourse on AI ethics, transparency, and security by emphasizing the need for well-thought-out guidelines and vigilance in policy maintenance.

  This paper critically examines the evolving ethical and regulatory challenges posed by the integration of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity. We trace the historical development of AI regulation, highlighting major milestones from theoretical discussions in the 1940s to the implementation of recent global frameworks such as the European Union AI Act. Ethical concerns such as bias, transparency, accountability, privacy, and human oversight are explored in depth, along with their implications for AI-driven cybersecurity systems.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) can be used to assess privacy policies for users automatically. We explore the challenges of this approach in three pillars, namely technical feasibility, ethical implications, and legal compatibility. Our findings aim to identify potential for future research, and to foster a discussion on the use of LLM technologies.

We propose that major AI developers commit to providing a legal and technical safe harbor. We believe these commitments are a necessary step towards more inclusive and unimpeded community efforts to tackle the risks of generative AI.

There is a lack of consensus about how exactly such risks arise, and how to manage them. Present governance initiatives lack the mechanisms and institutions to prevent misuse and recklessness, and barely address autonomous systems.

• Users are the North Star for AI Transparency [111.5679109784322]
  Despite widespread calls for transparent artificial intelligence systems, the term is too overburdened with disparate meanings to express precise policy aims or to orient concrete lines of research. Part of why this happens is that a clear ideal of AI transparency goes unsaid in this body of work. We explicitly name such a north star -- transparency that is user-centered, user-appropriate, and honest.
