SGPC Raises Concerns Over Misinformation Spread by AI Regarding Sikhism

The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the apex religious body for Sikhs, has expressed grave concerns over the proliferation of misinformation related to Sikhism through various artificial intelligence (AI) platforms. This misinformation encompasses distortions of Gurbani (Sikh scriptures), Sikh history, and Gurmat (Guru’s wisdom), causing significant distress within the Sikh community. SGPC President Harjinder Singh Dhami has identified several prominent AI platforms as contributing to this issue, including ChatGPT, DeepSeek, Grok, Gemini AI, Meta, Google, and various AI image generators like DALL·E 2 and MidJourney. The SGPC’s concerns stem from the readily available and easily disseminated nature of this inaccurate information, potentially misleading those seeking knowledge about Sikhism, especially younger generations who rely heavily on technology for learning.

Dhami emphasized the sanctity of Sikh traditions and the importance of preserving their integrity. He highlighted the detrimental impact of AI-generated content, particularly altered images of Sikh Gurus and historical figures, which deeply offend the Sikh community’s religious sentiments. The misrepresentation of revered figures, scriptures, and symbols through AI platforms poses a serious threat to the accurate understanding and appreciation of Sikh principles. Furthermore, Dhami pointed to certain Gurbani apps that misrepresent the scriptures, against which the SGPC has already taken action.

The SGPC recognizes the seriousness of this issue and plans to collaborate with relevant individuals and organizations working in the AI field to address this challenge effectively. Dhami urged the Sikh community to exercise caution and avoid relying solely on such apps for spiritual guidance, instead emphasizing the importance of consulting authentic historical sources to gain accurate knowledge of Sikh history and traditions. This call for critical engagement with online information highlights the need for discerning genuine sources from potentially misleading AI-generated content.

The rapid advancement and widespread accessibility of AI technology have created new avenues for the dissemination of information, but also present challenges in ensuring accuracy and preventing the spread of misinformation. The SGPC’s concerns underscore the importance of ethical considerations in developing and deploying AI tools, particularly when dealing with sensitive religious and cultural subjects. The potential for AI to misrepresent and distort religious figures, scriptures, and historical narratives poses a significant threat to the preservation of religious traditions and the accurate understanding of faith.

Dhami has escalated the matter by appealing to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, urging the government to officially address this sensitive issue. He has called for the formulation of a concrete policy to curb the spread of misinformation related to Sikhism through AI platforms. This appeal to the government highlights the need for regulatory frameworks and guidelines to ensure the responsible use of AI and prevent the misuse of this technology for spreading inaccurate or harmful content.

The SGPC’s concerns and actions underscore the evolving challenges faced by religious communities in the digital age. The ease with which misinformation can be created and disseminated using AI necessitates proactive measures to protect the integrity of religious traditions and ensure access to accurate information. This requires collaborative efforts between religious organizations, technology developers, and policymakers to navigate the complex landscape of AI and address its potential impact on religious communities. The SGPC’s call for action serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and critical engagement with online information, particularly in the context of faith and religious practice.
