Artificial Intelligence Responsible Development and Application Sub-Forum Since October this year, artificial intelligence has once again demonstrated its "double-edged sword" characteristics to the world.
The time-space talk "AI Talk" produced by People's Daily Online , on the one hand, artificial intelligence technology has been recognized by the Nobel Prize in Physics and Chemistry for its contribution to the field of science. These achievements not only highlight the role of AI in scientific research potential, which also indicates that it will play a greater role in the future. On the other hand, during the National Day holiday, AI technology was criticized due to inappropriate remarks made by the fake "Lei Jun" on social media, which once again triggered public discussions on the safety and ethics of AI. It is worth noting that during this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics awarding process, the judges particularly emphasized the importance of scientific and technological ethics and responsibility. Jeffrey Hinton, one of the winners, also pointed out that the technology community and society should jointly discuss how to promote the advancement of AI technology while ensuring its responsible use. This reflects the international community's understanding of the coexistence of positive and negative impacts of AI technology, and calls on all parties to work together to build a healthy technology ecosystem.

AI-generated content that once looked “fake at first sight” and “fake at first hearing” has now evolved to a level where it is “difficult to tell the real from the fake”. As AI technology further matures and becomes more popular, its potential security risks are also increasing. In response, active responses have emerged around the world. The EU has passed a series of regulations, such as the Artificial Intelligence Act, the General Data Protection Regulation and the Digital Services Act, aiming to regulate the application of AI technology through legal means. In China, regulations such as the Cybersecurity Law, Data Security Law, and Personal Information Protection Law have also been promulgated and implemented. Last year, seven departments including the Cyberspace Administration of China jointly issued the "Interim Measures for the Management of Generative Artificial Intelligence Services" to define the supervision, inspection and legal responsibilities of generative artificial intelligence; in September this year, the "Measures for Labeling of Synthetic Content Generated by Artificial Intelligence" (Draft for Comments)" is publicly soliciting opinions, aiming to safeguard national security and social public interests, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, legal persons and other organizations by standardizing the generation of synthetic content identifiers by artificial intelligence. The 2024 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit will be held in Wuzhen, Zhejiang from November 19th to 22nd. This Wuzhen Summit will focus on artificial intelligence, with the theme of "Embracing a digital future that is people-centered and intelligent for good - working together to build a community with a shared future in cyberspace". It will focus on the responsible development and application of artificial intelligence, the next generation Internet, cross-border e-commerce, More than 20 sub-forums were held on topics such as youth and digital future, financial technology, and intelligent transportation.
Among them,
the 2024 Wuzhen Summit press conference will include the Responsible Development and Application of Artificial Intelligence sub-forum held on the morning of November 21, which will be hosted by the World Intellectual Property Organization, People's Daily Online, China Cyberspace Security Association, and Anheng Information, and will be hosted by the British Standards Institution and Evernote. , co-organized by TMTpost Media. According to the organizer, the forum will focus on "people-oriented, intelligence for good, and benefiting mankind", bringing together top experts, scholars and industry leaders at home and abroad to conduct in-depth discussions, aiming to promote the construction of artificial intelligence research and transformation with multi-subject participation and multi-level governance. and development mechanisms to jointly promote the construction of a good ecosystem for the development of artificial intelligence technology and industry.
