Govt nod, user consent must for GenAI models
Financial Express Mumbai|March 03, 2024
THE GOVERNMENT ON Saturday issued an advisory to all intermediaries and generative AI platforms using artificial intelligence (AI) models, software or algorithms to seek permission from the government and label their platforms as "under testing" before making them available to the public.

The platforms - including Google's Gemini, ChatGPT, and Krutrim Al- will then have to seek user consent, clearly stating that the GenAI model or platform could give incorrect information and be error-prone.

"In a lot of ways, this advisory signals the framework of the future of our regulatory and legislative framework that aims at creating a safe and trusted Rajeev Chaninternet," Drasekhar, minister of state for electronics and IT, said.

The advisory follows use of experimental models by generative AI platforms, which have reported several instances of biased content and misinformation. The companies, especially digital publishing platforms, have also been asked to figure out a way to embed metadata or unique identification code for everything that is synthetically created on their platforms. This will help track the originator of such information.
