Brazil passed world’s first AI-designed law
The City Council of Porto Alegre, the capital of the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul, has passed a law whose text was written entirely using ChatGPT, TASS reports
According to the G1 news portal, the document was created by a neural network at the request of City Council member Ramiro Rosariu. This bill enables a municipality to avoid charging taxpayers to replace stolen water meters. It is reported that the document has been approved by the council and has already been signed by City Mayor Sebastião Melo.
City Council members, the Mayor and city residents learned that the bill was developed by ChatGPT only after its adoption. “Our strategy was not to tell anyone that artificial intelligence did it, we just […] wanted to do an experiment,” Rosario said. According to the official, in the next few years, society will face ‘a revolution in various fields thanks to artificial intelligence and politics will not be left out of these changes’.
The ChatGPT service was introduced by OpenAI (USA) in 2022 – being able to answer clarifying questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests.
