The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) on Monday constituted a sub-committee of experts in the field of AI and the internet to review and suggest ways to check the growing misuse of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to create videos and other content that undermine the dignity and sanctity of the Sikh religion.
Sharing details, SGPC secretary Partap Singh said that, as per the decision taken by the executive committee, gurdwara body’s president Harjinder Singh Dhami had formed this sub-committee to check and curb the circulation of objectionable content on social media.
“The videos and other material generated using AI, which hurt Sikh religious sentiments, are continuously increasing on social media platforms. To effectively put a stop to this trend, a dedicated sub-committee comprising legal and technical experts actively working in this domain has been formed,” Partap Singh said.
