City of Boston Interim Guidelines for Using Generative AI



City of Boston Interim Guidelines for Using Generative AI

Generative AI is a set of relatively new technologies that leverages large (very large) volumes of data along with some machine learning (ML) techniques to produce content based on inputs from the users known as prompts. The new content can be written (e.g. ChatGPT or Bard), or visual (e.g. Dall-E). These tools are evolving rapidly, and are still the subject of active research: improving our understanding of how they actually work, and the impacts of their use in society. These tools are not actual intelligence in the human sense, rather, they are very sophisticated models that predict what the language, text, or video that satisfies the prompt should be. Because of their impact and potential usefulness, as well as the risks and dangers, these guidelines serve as an interim resource for employees of the City of Boston.
