Finnish startup Saidot has raised awareness of the risks of rapid advances in artificial intelligence by shipping six-fingered gloves tech leaders and policymakers, calling for responsible AI regulation and regulation.
AI Warning
Unusual Initiative
Six-fingered gloves have become a symbol of the unexpected results of neural networks, which often add extra fingers to images of people. This creative event was organized by the Finnish company Saidot to express concern about the rapid progress in the field of artificial intelligence.
Recipients of the unusual package
Among the recipients of these unusual accessories were key figures in the IT industry, such as Mark Zuckerberg from Meta and Sam Altman from OpenAI. The gloves were also sent to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, underscoring the call for effective regulation of the AI industry.
Hollywood trail
Interestingly, the famous actress Scarlett Johansson was also included in the mailing list. This is due to OpenAI's recent launch of the ChatGPT voice mode, which surprisingly resembled the timbre of the star's voice.
Assessing the actions of industry leaders
Saidot noted the positive steps of Altman and Zuckerberg towards “harnessing AI.” The former was praised for being careful in releasing more powerful models, while the latter was praised for supporting open source projects. However, both were advised to pay more attention to the ethical aspects and quality of data for AI training.
Call for accountability
Six-fingered gloves were also sent to British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, European Commissioner for Technology Henny Virkunen and researcher AI Rishi Bommasani. The gesture underscores the importance of protecting copyrights and combating misinformation in the age of AI.
It is worth recalling that in March last year, Elon Musk, along with more than a thousand experts, signed an open letter warning about the dangers of advanced AI systems. The document proposed introducing a temporary ban on the development of such technologies and strengthening their regulation.

Wow, what an interesting promotion! 😮 Six-fingered gloves are really creepy. I wonder how the recipients reacted?
Hans
Yes, Katerina, this will definitely attract attention! I think Zuckerberg and Altman were surprised 😅 But the idea is cool - it makes you think about the consequences of the development of AI.
Sophia
I agree with Hans! This is a creative way to draw attention to an issue. Interestingly, they also sent gloves to Scarlett Johansson. Her case of voice imitation is especially disturbing 😕
Pierre
What impressed me the most was that they sent the gloves to politicians! Ursula von der Leyen must have been shocked 😂 But seriously, we need effective regulation of AI, and fast.
Viktor
It's all nonsense. Another hype around AI. We lived normally without these technologies, and we will continue to live. It would be better to solve real problems instead of making up horror stories.
Isabella
Victor, I don't agree. AI is already changing our lives, we cannot ignore it. The action may seem strange, but it raises important questions. We need a balance between innovation and security 🤔
Hans
Isabella is right. By the way, it is interesting that Saidot praised Altman and Zuckerberg for some initiatives. Maybe this is a sign that large companies are starting to listen to public concerns? 🤞
Sophia
I hope so, Hans! But we need more than just PR stunts. Real change in AI development and strict ethical standards is what really matters. Maybe these gloves will be the first step? 🚀
