Ai Beijing consensus released! There is a "Beijing Consensus" on the development of AI industry. According to Beijing business daily, "suppose you run from point a to point B, and suddenly a child comes out in the middle. People will dodge, but in order to reach the goal faster, the machine may directly hit it. How to avoid such risks is one of the most important topics in AI ethics research. " On May 25, at the press conference of the inauguration of the artificial intelligence ethics and safety research center of Beijing Zhiyuan Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, Zeng Yi, director of the center, said, "how to make machines learn human ethics and values is the Holy Grail in the field of artificial intelligence.".
On the same day, Beijing Zhiyuan Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, together with Peking University, Tsinghua University, Institute of automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of computing technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, new generation artificial intelligence industry technology innovation strategic alliance and other universities, research institutes and industry alliances, jointly issued the "Beijing Consensus on artificial intelligence".
The development of AI industry is in the ascendant. How to realize the self-discipline of the industry has been put on the agenda. Beijing business daily learned at the press conference that the Beijing consensus on artificial intelligence proposed 15 principles that all participants should follow in terms of research and development, use and governance of artificial intelligence, which are beneficial to the construction of a community of shared future for human beings and social development.
On the significance of establishing these principles, Zeng Yi told Beijing Business Daily: "for example, in the use stage, we build an artificial intelligence platform, but actually we don't know how users will eventually use it. In case of user abuse, all developers and enterprises should pay attention to whether the platform can automatically detect and avoid it quickly. "
It is understood that at present, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Japan and other international organizations and countries have issued ethical guidelines for artificial intelligence《 The Beijing consensus on artificial intelligence focuses on 'serving people' and takes the characteristic concept of 'harmony and optimization symbiosis' in Chinese philosophy and culture as the guiding ideology for seeking cross industry, cross department and cross regional global cooperation. It also emphasizes promoting the' landing 'of relevant guidelines on artificial intelligence, so as to create' responsible and beneficial 'artificial intelligence for the future.
At the same time, according to Zeng Yi, in the future, research on intelligent autonomous learning model in line with human ethics will be carried out to achieve the calibration of artificial intelligence behavior and human values; Build a data security demonstration application system to prevent data leakage to the greatest extent, and explore the mechanism and computing platform to allow users to revoke personal data authorization.
According to the data, as of May last year, there were 4040 AI enterprises in China and 1070 AI enterprises in Beijing, accounting for 26%, involving many fields, such as smart healthcare, smart home, smart city, smart retail and driverless.
Xu Qiang, director of the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission, said recently that this year Beijing will actively undertake major national scientific and technological tasks and strive for the layout of key tasks and projects such as intelligent manufacturing, robotics and deep space exploration in Beijing.
