Krist Novoselic, co-founder and bass guitarist of the rock band Nirvana, recently led a shareholder proposal urging Microsoft to reassess its approach to generative AI. The proposal, titled "Shareholder Proposal 13: Report on AI Misinformation and Disinformation," raised concerns about the potential for Microsoft's AI models to spread mass misinformation and disinformation. Novoselic questioned the reliability of information generated through Microsoft’s AI-powered Bing and highlighted the lack of response from Microsoft and the industry to calls for a six-month pause on AI development. The proposal aimed to get information beyond Microsoft's generic commitments to responsible AI. However, Microsoft’s board responded that it had already fulfilled the proposal’s request with existing and upcoming reporting.
