Another day of reflections from the People's Panel on AI at #AISummitFringe by our man on the ground, @timdavies in the third Daily Bulletin. There's a lot more deliberation to come but some selected insights (thread)

People's Panel on AI Bulletin 3

This is the third bulletin from the People’s Panel on AI, sharing observations and insights from Connected by Data as an observer. You can find earlier bulletins here.  Today, as well as joining plenary sessions at the AI Fringe, the People’s Panel members have been engaged in lots of small-group work: from hands-on learning with generative AI tools, to one-to-one conversations with scientists at the Hopes and Fears lab.

Learning about limits: understanding what AI cannot do, may help us to be more hopeful about its potential.

“ChatGPT can’t tell us anything after 2022. That really surprised me.” - Panel member

Starting from social good: can we flip the conversation? Priority questions from the panel place the emphasis on working out where AI fits into the kind of lives people value.

Hopes and fears: new themes on climate, education and public/private sector use.

“...I learned today is that AI is not going away. I’m turning to embrace it & learn about it, instead of ignoring it & hoping it will go away.” - Panel member

People's Panel on AI

The People’s Panel on AI brought together representative members of the public to attend, observe and discuss key events at the AI Fringe, which was held alongside the UK Government’s AI Safety Summit at the beginning of November 2023. Through a deliberative process facilitated by Hopkins Van Mil the People’s Panel on AI produced a public report giving their verdict on AI and their recommendations to government, industry, civil society and academia for further action.

If you're following the People's Panel on AI we'd love to know what you think so far. There is an independent evaluator working with us and a survey here: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/D83LFJ/
