What ethical challenges do new generative AI models pose?

Imagine you've got a really clever friend who can copy your drawings and make new ones that look just like yours, but sometimes they get confused and mix up parts from different pictures. That's kind of what new generative AI models do: they create texts, images, or even music that feel real, but they're made by the computer.

Copying without asking

Sometimes these AIs copy pieces from other people’s work, like copying part of a drawing without asking. That's plagiarism, and it can make people upset if they don't get credit for their ideas.

Making things up

These AIs can also say or create things that aren’t true. It's like when your friend tells you a story but adds parts that never happened, it can be fun, but sometimes it's hard to tell what’s real and what’s not.

When AI models are used in places like schools, news, or even games, the ethical challenges become bigger. People might believe something isn't true, or someone else might not get credit for their work, just because a clever AI made it easier to copy or create new things.
