LSEG Explores the Potential of Artificial Intelligence
Meanwhile, the LSEG is also dipping its hands heavily into artificial intelligence (AI). On August 4, BeInCrypto reported that LSEG plans to create top-quality generative AI models with the assistance of Microsoft. David Schwimmer, the CEO of the LSEG, emphasized that the developments are still in their initial phases.
“We are having conversations with customers about the opportunity for them to use the vast amount of data we have available, to commingle that with their data in a secure proprietary [manner].” Meanwhile, the United Kingdom’s prime minister, Rishi Sunak, recently announced his intention not to rush AI regulations in the country.
Sunak holds the belief that insufficiently deliberated AI regulations could potentially result in regrettable mistakes in the future: “The fast-evolving technology could make it easier to build chemical and biological weapons, perpetrate cyber attacks, spread disinformation, and commit child sexual abuse. In the most extreme cases, humanity could lose control of AI completely.”
