OpenAI's ChatGPT is a revolutionary artificial intelligence language model with powerful capabilities to successfully generate human-like text. While the potential applications are myriad, there exist some negative outcomes that are necessary to be aware of. Scams and misinformation are of particular concern, as well as potential programming errors resulting in inappropriate material, and plagiarism in the educational sphere. For ChatGPT to reach its full potential, responsible use and ethical vigilance is required.

. This article looks at the call to pause the development of AI systems like ChatGPT put forward recently by the Future of Life Institute (FLI). Sponsored by the Musk Foundation and signed by personalities from the tech industry including Elon Musk, the letter raises ethical questions about the effects of AI on humans including job automation, proliferation of propaganda and potential non-human minds outpacing humans. This has set the debate on whether we are controlling AI or vice-versa. The article also suggests that ethical boundaries need to be set in a world of emerging technology.

OpenAI's ChatGPT is temporarily blocked by the Italian Data Protection Authority in response to a data breach. This AI software has gained global popularity, yet also raised concerns of data privacy and student plagiarism. OpenAI must comply with the EU data protection rules or face a hefty €20 million fine.

Insider, a major news site, plans to incorporate OpenAI's ChatGPT into its reporting. However, Global Editor-in-Chief Nich Carlson warned of the potential to fabricate, plagiarize and introduce falsehoods through AI-generated text. Despite this, Nich noted the potential benefit of using ChatGPT, such as improved workflows for editors, reporters and producers. Ultimately, AI should not replace ethics when it comes to news writing, and it should not be taken as a source of truth.

. Hong Kong is closely monitoring the risk and potential of ChatGPT, an AI-based tool which has gained quick popularity over the last few months. Sun Dong, the city's technology minister, has recently indicated that it will not be adopted for internal government use. Regulations from the Chinese internet regulator are in place to prevent instances of discrimination and protect individual privacy. Hong Kong is creating AI-infused solutions and has plans for setting up a supercomputing hub. While ChatGPT has tremendous potential, it also comes with a fair share of challenges - Hong Kong still needs to figure out how to regulate and leverage it.
