Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, head of the Sweden center-right government's Non-Aliancing Party, said he has used AI tools, including ChatGPT and French Le Chat services, in his daily work.
"I use it quite often. At least to hear an additional opinion. What did the others do? And should we think in the opposite direction? Such questions," Kristersson told Swedish media.
However, technology experts have expressed concern about politicians using AI tools in this way.
Some Swedish media have reacted to the information revealed by Prime Minister Kristersson. A newspaper published an opinion piece that the prime minister was "guested into the AI crush created by the tycoon world".
"You have to be very careful," Simone Fischer- Hubner, a computer science researcher at Karlstad University, noted, warning against using ChatGPT to process sensitive information.
Virginia Dignum, a responsible professor of artificial intelligence at the University ofmea, said AI is unable to make influential comments about political ideas. AI only reflects the views of those who create those views. The more he relies on AI for simple things, the greater the risk of being affected by the system, she said.
After Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson's speech caused a backlash from public opinion, spokesperson Tom Samuelsson said that Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson was not risky in using AI: " Of course, sensitive information about security is not included there. It is only used as a prediction tool.
