From Hippocrates to AI: Reflections on the Evolution of Consent

posted an update 2 days ago

From ancient medical ethics to modern AI challenges, the journey of consent represents one of humanity's most fascinating ethical evolutions. In my latest blog post, I explore how we've moved from medical paternalism to a new frontier where AI capabilities force us to rethink consent. The "consent gap" in AI is real: while we can approve initial data use, AI systems can generate countless unforeseen applications of our personal information. It's like signing a blank check without knowing all possible amounts that could be filled in. Should we reimagine consent for the AI age? Perhaps we need dynamic consent systems that evolve alongside AI capabilities, similar to how healthcare transformed from physician-centered authority to patient autonomy. Curious to hear your thoughts: how can we balance technological innovation with meaningful user sovereignty over digital identity? Read more: https://huggingface.co/blog/giadap/evolution-of-consent

What's at stake with Meta's decision to change its content moderation policy? @giadap has, by far, the most thoughtful take I’ve seen on this question. Read her op-ed: https://www.techpolicy.press/when-freedom-bites-back-meta-moderation-and-the-limits-of-tolerance/

@davidberenstein1957 Smart idea! Would you need to accept them once or every time something updates?

@lunarflu It's all about giving back agency, and having (the right amount of) trust :)

AI agents are coming. But who's in control?

@meg , one of the best researchers in AI ethics, makes a critical point about autonomy: fully autonomous systems carry unknowable risks because they operate on computer logic rather than human logic.

The solution? Build systems that support & assist rather than override human decisions.

I highly recommend reading the blog post written by Meg, @evijit @sasha and @giadap . They define different levels of agent autonomy & provide a values-based analysis of risks, benefits, and uses of AI agents to help you make better decisions.

🔥 The AI Agent hype is real! This blog post deep dives into everything you need to know before deploying them: from key definitions to practical recommendations. A must-read for anyone building the future of autonomous systems.

📊 Key insight: A clear table breaking down the 5 levels of AI agents - from simple processors to fully autonomous systems. Essential framework for understanding where your agent stands on the autonomy spectrum

⚖️ Deep analysis of 15 core values reveals critical trade-offs: accuracy, privacy, safety, equity & more. The same features that make agents powerful can make them risky. Understanding these trade-offs is crucial for responsible deployment

🎯 6 key recommendations for the road ahead:
- Create rigorous evaluation protocols
- Study societal effects
- Understand ripple effects
- Improve transparency
- Open source can make a positive difference
- Monitor base model evolution

💫...And we're live!💫 Seasonal newsletter from ethicsy folks at Hugging Face, exploring the ethics of "AI Agents"
https://huggingface.co/blog/ethics-soc-7
Our analyses found:
- There's a spectrum of "agent"-ness
- *Safety* is a key issue, leading to many other value-based concerns
Read for details & what to do next!

🤗👤 💻 Speaking of AI agents ...
...Is easier with the right words ;)

My colleagues @meg @evijit @sasha and @giadap just published a wonderful blog post outlining some of the main relevant notions with their signature blend of value-informed and risk-benefits contrasting approach. Go have a read!

🇫🇷 Lancement officiel de l'OpenLLM French Leaderboard : initiative open-source pour référencer l’évaluation des LLMs francophones

Après beaucoup d’efforts et de sueurs avec Alexandre Lavallee, nous sommes ravis d’annoncer que le OpenLLMFrenchLeaderboard est en ligne sur Hugging Face (space url: le-leadboard/OpenLLMFrenchLeaderboard) la toute première plateforme dédiée à l’évaluation des grands modèles de langage (LLM) en français. 🇫🇷✨

Ce projet de longue haleine est avant tout une œuvre de passion mais surtout une nécessité absolue. Il devient urgent et vital d'oeuvrer à plus de transparence dans ce domaine stratégique des LLM dits multilingues. La première pièce à l'édifice est donc la mise en place d'une évaluation systématique et systémique des modèles actuels et futurs.

Votre modèle IA français est-il prêt à se démarquer ? Soumettez le dans notre espace, et voyez comment vous vous comparez par rapport aux autres modèles.

❓ Comment ça marche :
Soumettez votre LLM français pour évaluation, et nous le testerons sur des benchmarks de référence spécifiquement adaptés pour la langue française — notre suite de benchmarks comprend :

- BBH-fr : Raisonnement complexe
- IFEval-fr : Suivi d'instructions
- GPQA-fr : Connaissances avancées
- MUSR-fr : Raisonnement narratif
- MATH_LVL5-fr : Capacités mathématiques
- MMMLU-fr : Compréhension multitâche

Le processus est encore manuel, mais nous travaillons sur son automatisation, avec le soutien de la communauté Hugging Face.

@clem , on se prépare pour une mise à niveau de l’espace ? 😏👀

Ce n'est pas qu'une question de chiffres—il s'agit de créer une IA qui reflète vraiment notre langue, notre culture et nos valeurs. OpenLLMFrenchLeaderboard est notre contribution personnelle pour façonner l'avenir des LLM en France.
