SGPC writes to AI platforms over ‘wrong’ info on Gurbani
The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the apex body of Sikhs, has written to several Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms, expressing concerns over the dissemination of incorrect information about Gurbani and Sikh history on their platforms. The development comes after numerous complaints were received by the SGPC about the wrong information being spread on AI-powered apps and websites.
The SGPC has written to AI platforms such as Chat GPT, DeepSec, Grok, Gemini AI, Meta, and Google, among others, urging them to take immediate action to rectify the situation. The committee has also requested these platforms to ensure that accurate and authentic information about Gurbani and Sikh history is provided to users.
The SGPC’s decision to write to AI platforms is a response to the growing concern over the spread of misinformation about Sikhs and Sikhism. In recent times, there have been several instances where AI-powered apps and websites have been found to be spreading incorrect information about Gurbani and Sikh history, which has caused distress and offense to the Sikh community.
One of the main concerns of the SGPC is the representation of Gurbani on these platforms. Gurbani, which is the sacred scripture of Sikhs, contains the teachings and wisdom of Sikh gurus and is considered to be a sacred and revered text. However, many AI-powered apps and websites have been found to be misrepresenting Gurbani, which has caused offense to the Sikh community.
The SGPC has also received complaints about the spread of misinformation about Sikh history. Many AI-powered apps and websites have been found to be spreading false information about Sikh history, which has caused distress and offense to the Sikh community.
The SGPC has urged the AI platforms to take immediate action to rectify the situation and ensure that accurate and authentic information about Gurbani and Sikh history is provided to users. The committee has also requested these platforms to establish a system for verifying the accuracy of the information provided on their platforms.
The SGPC’s decision to write to AI platforms is a significant development in the ongoing efforts to promote the correct representation of Sikhs and Sikhism. The committee has been working tirelessly to promote the correct representation of Sikhs and Sikhism, and this decision is a step in the right direction.
In recent times, there have been several instances where AI-powered apps and websites have been found to be spreading misinformation about Sikhs and Sikhism. For example, in 2020, an AI-powered app was found to be spreading false information about Sikhism, which caused offense to the Sikh community. Similarly, in 2022, a website was found to be spreading misinformation about Sikh history, which caused distress and offense to the Sikh community.
The spread of misinformation about Sikhs and Sikhism is a serious issue that needs to be addressed urgently. The SGPC’s decision to write to AI platforms is a step in the right direction, and it is hoped that these platforms will take immediate action to rectify the situation and ensure that accurate and authentic information about Gurbani and Sikh history is provided to users.
In conclusion, the SGPC’s decision to write to AI platforms over the spread of misinformation about Gurbani and Sikh history is a significant development in the ongoing efforts to promote the correct representation of Sikhs and Sikhism. The committee has received numerous complaints about the spread of misinformation on AI-powered apps and websites, and it has urged these platforms to take immediate action to rectify the situation and ensure that accurate and authentic information is provided to users.
