Practice and challenges of the ethical governance of artificial intelligence in China: A new perspective

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The ethical governance of artificial intelligence (AI) in China is in a special period of ‘the overlap of three historical periods’ (that is, the period of rapid technological development, the period of high-quality socioeconomic progress and the period of deep adjustment of the international order). The intertwining of technological uncertainty, the multi-objectives of socioeconomic development and global strategic games have brought new challenges to the ethical governance of AI in China, particularly in the areas of impact identification, ‘no man's land’ issues and the effectiveness of the ethical governance system. To address those challenges, this paper provides some recommendations from the aspects of regulatory system construction, ethical review, ethical education, development of a governance toolbox and international cooperation.
