AI Advancement Demands Democratic Governance Framework
The digital ecosystem of humanity has been thrown into chaos as Anthropic, a U.S. generative artificial intelligence (AI) developer, recently unveiled its cybersecurity AI "Mithos." Citing concerns over catastrophic consequences if immediately released, the company has made it available on a limited basis to Microsoft, Google, and Apple through "Project Glasswing," a pre-deployment collaboration initiative among Big Tech firms. An AI service evaluated as having the most powerful capabilities in cybersecurity has emerged as a threat to humanity, with the potential to hack the security networks of every financial and government institution worldwide.AI is penetrating deeply into our lives. With the advent of the generative AI era and the emergence of assistant-type agents, some jobs were predicted to disappear while new ones would be created. Subsequently, the development of autonomous agent AI capable of independent judgment is shaking the labor and industrial structure to its core. Not only is work speed being dramatically shortened, but technical barriers in coding and design work, as well as boundaries between industries, are all breaking down.AI is also delivering a major shock to the educational field. The social authority of professors, who produce knowledge, and of academic degrees has declined, while classrooms and campuses are losing their presence as spaces of learning. "Super individuals" armed with AI are enhancing their capabilities, evolving through personalized learning and real-time feedback on their own. Moreover, the advancement of blockchain technology is leading a network-based learning paradigm, mutually verifying and recording individuals' lifelong learning experiences.The advancement of AI particularly threatens the public sphere of democracy. Deepfakes, which are fabricated videos, and the "filter bubble" phenomenon that reinforces confirmation bias can harm citizens' rational thinking and healthy debate, while critical national policy decisions can be distorted by algorithmic bias. There is concern that the formation of public opinion in the public sphere, a core process of democracy, could be distorted by technology.However, there are also high expectations that AI advancement will lead to fair policymaking and legislation. Italy's "AI-Augmented Parliament" uses AI to analyze the similarities between bills and produces rational and fair alternatives through real-time revisions. The U.K. government's "Consult" uses AI to analyze and...
AI governance around the world | The Alan Turing Institute
Introduction The international AI governance landscape continues to evolve as jurisdictions around the world balance the need to navigate increased competition with earlier commitments to advancing international alignment and cooperation on AI governance and safety. Many jurisdictions have recognised the strategic implications of AI, both for economic prosperity and national security, and ...
A reflexive artificial intelligence governance for transformative ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrated in sustainability governance, yet most applications remain oriented towards optimisation and prediction, reducing complex social-ecological issues to technical problems. This narrow focus neglects plural values, lived experiences, and democratic judgement essential for transformative change. We advance a reflexive AI governance approach ...
