The Era of Artificial Intelligence: Ensuring Responsibility and Transparency

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the world as we know it, with its potential to revolutionize various aspects of human life. While the benefits of AI are vast, there is a critical need to prioritize responsibility and transparency in the development and utilization of AI systems.

Innovating with a collaborative spirit and promoting creativity is essential, along with maintaining transparency throughout the process. Control, safety, security, privacy, as well as respecting the rights and dignity of individuals are paramount considerations. Developers must prioritize user support and accountability in their AI applications.

One key emphasis lies on transparency. It is crucial for developers to clearly define the inputs and outputs of AI systems and provide explanations based on applied technology to gain societal trust, including users. Additionally, conducting evaluations and testing in controlled environments before real-world implementation is vital to ensure security and safety measures are in place.

As AI continues to advance rapidly, developers must ensure that their systems do not infringe upon the privacy rights of users or third parties. Respecting privacy rights regarding personal space, information, and communication confidentiality is imperative. Adhering to existing regulations and seeking guidance from international standards on privacy rights are encouraged.

Moreover, developers should uphold human rights and dignity, taking measures to prevent discrimination and bias in data training for AI systems. Implementing responsible explanations to relevant parties, including AI system users, and fostering information sharing and close collaboration with providers are essential for addressing related issues during service provision and AI system usage.

The Ministry of Science and Technology acknowledges the current guidance on principles as a framework to promote the responsible research, development, and application of AI systems. As the AI landscape evolves, continuous research and updates to these principles will be made to align with the dynamic nature of technological advancements.
