With the rapid development and widespread application of artificial intelligence, mankind is entering an era of intelligent interconnection between "human, machine and matter". While the application of artificial intelligence technology brings opportunities, it also raises a series of ethical challenges. In order to cope with the risks brought by the application of artificial intelligence technology, countries around the world actively promote the ethical governance and cooperation of artificial intelligence. my country continues to improve the system and mechanism of artificial intelligence ethics governance, accelerate the implementation of technical, engineering and standardized artificial intelligence ethics governance, and promote the development of artificial intelligence to goodness.
On December 26, 2023, the China Institute of Information and Communications (hereinafter referred to as "China Institute of Information and Communications") released the "Artificial Intelligence Ethical Governance Research Report (2023) at the "2024 China Institute of Information and Communications ICT In-depth Observation Report Conference" Science and Technology Ethical Governance Sub-forum )》.
Based on the summary of the concepts and characteristics of the ethical governance of artificial intelligence, the report analyzes the ethical risks of three typical application scenarios of artificial intelligence generation content, autonomous driving, and smart medical care, and combines the practice of domestic and foreign artificial intelligence ethical governance, and proposes artificial intelligence. Four outlooks on ethical governance are intended to provide reference for broader and more in-depth discussions.
Report core points
1. The challenges of the ethical risks and challenges of artificial intelligence need to be paid attention to
At present, the ethical challenges caused by artificial intelligence have changed from theoretical discussion to real risks. During the technical research and development stage, since the artificial intelligence technology development subjects still have insufficient technical capabilities and management methods in data acquisition and use, algorithm design, model tuning, etc., it may lead to ethics such as bias and discrimination, privacy leakage, misinformation, and inexplicability. risk. In the stage of product research and development and application, the specific fields that artificial intelligence products are targeted, the scope of deployment and application of artificial intelligence systems, etc. will affect the degree of ethical risks of artificial intelligence, and may cause ethical risks such as misuse and abuse, excessive dependence, and impact on education and employment. For typical application scenarios such as artificial intelligence generated content, autonomous driving, and smart medical care, the main risks need to be evaluated based on the frequency of risk occurrence, impact range, and impact degree.
2. Artificial intelligence ethical governance is an effective mechanism to deal with AI risks
Artificial intelligence ethical governance is an important part of artificial intelligence governance and the main mechanism to deal with the risks and challenges of artificial intelligence. The ethical governance of artificial intelligence takes people-oriented, fair and non-discriminatory, transparent and interpretable, human control, traceable responsibilities, and sustainable development as the core content. According to the development and application of artificial intelligence technology, timely proposes to adjust the relationship between human and artificial intelligence and Methods to deal with AI risks.
3. Countries actively promote the ethical governance of artificial intelligence
In order to cope with the risks brought by the application of artificial intelligence technology, countries around the world actively promote international governance cooperation in artificial intelligence ethics. Governments in various countries have strengthened the supervision of artificial intelligence ethical governance in their own countries and regions by issuing artificial intelligence ethical principles, issuing artificial intelligence ethical governance guidelines, and providing technical governance tools. my country has actively improved the system norms of artificial intelligence ethics, explored technical, engineering and standardized implementation measures for the ethics of artificial intelligence, guided industry self-discipline, and strengthened international cooperation in artificial intelligence governance, etc. to promote the development of artificial intelligence towards goodness.
4. Four perspectives on the ethical governance of artificial intelligence
In terms of governance concepts, we insist on promoting the unity of innovation and risk prevention, and coordinate development and security. In terms of governance measures, we will improve multi-disciplinary and multi-subject cooperation, explore classified and hierarchical governance, and promote the development of governance technology tools. In terms of capacity building, we attach importance to improving the scientific and technological ethics of various subjects such as scientific researchers, developers, and the public. In terms of open cooperation, we actively participate in global artificial intelligence ethical governance cooperation and promote artificial intelligence technology to benefit mankind.
