SGPC Sounds Alarm: AI Distorts Sikh Heritage, Demands Govt Action
The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has expressed serious concern over the misrepresentation of Gurbani and Sikh history by artificial intelligence platforms. Numerous complaints have highlighted inaccurate and offensive depictions of Sikh figures and sacred scriptures.
Following these complaints, the SGPC issued a formal communiqué to major AI operators, including ChatGPT. The communiqué demands immediate rectification of these factual errors and a commitment to accurate representation.
The SGPC is seeking government intervention to establish guidelines and regulations for AI platforms to prevent future instances of religious misrepresentation. This is crucial to protect the sanctity of Sikh beliefs and heritage.
This issue underscores the urgent need for responsible AI development and deployment. The potential for misinformation and the hurt caused to religious sentiments necessitates proactive measures from both technology companies and the government. Failure to address this could lead to further social unrest and erode public trust.
