In a recent paper leak scandal involving the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC), an accused used the artificial intelligence platform, ChatGPT, to cheat the system. The accused, Poola Ramesh, who works as a divisional engineer at Telangana State Northern Power Distribution Company Limited, accessed the question papers for the recruitment of assistant executive engineer (AEE) and divisional accounts officer (DAO). To obtain answers to questions, he used ChatGPT and relayed the answers to some candidates using Bluetooth earbuds. The case highlights the potential misuse of artificial intelligence platforms like ChatGPT and the need for policies to regulate them. During a Senate hearing, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman agreed with lawmakers on concerns about the potential misuse of such technology.
OpenAI is an artificial intelligence research laboratory consisting of the for-profit OpenAI LP as well as the non-profit OpenAI Inc., owned by initial investors including Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Ilya Sutskever, and John Schulman. It aims to ensure that the research breakthroughs in AI are made accessible to everyone.
