- Indian IT Act Section 79: Similar protections are offered under Section 79 of the Indian IT Act, requiring due diligence.
- Historical Context: These laws emerged to address concerns about harmful online content and have facilitated tech industry growth.
Challenges Posed by AI Systems:
- AI Liability Questions: The rise of AI, especially large language models (LLMs), challenges existing legal frameworks on liability for generated content.
- Debate on Exemptions: Advocates argue for extending good samaritan exemptions to AI, while critics highlight AI's autonomous content generation risks.
- Moral Responsibility: Regardless of legal interpretations, AI operators have a moral duty to ensure transparency, mitigate biases, and address harmful content.
Mains Question:
Q. Examine the challenges that artificial intelligence, particularly large language models, pose to existing legal frameworks of the Indian IT Act. Discuss potential solutions to address these challenges.
