  AI Generated Content (AIGC) has received tremendous attention within the past
few years, with content generated in the format of image, text, audio, video,
etc. Meanwhile, AIGC has become a double-edged sword and recently received much
criticism regarding its responsible usage. In this article, we focus on 8 main
concerns that may hinder the healthy development and deployment of AIGC in
practice, including risks from (1) privacy; (2) bias, toxicity, misinformation;
(3) intellectual property (IP); (4) robustness; (5) open source and
explanation; (6) technology abuse; (7) consent, credit, and compensation; (8)
environment. Additionally, we provide insights into the promising directions
for tackling these risks while constructing generative models, enabling AIGC to
be used more responsibly to truly benefit society.
