Artificial intelligence (AI), known by some as the industrial revolution (IR) 4.0, is going to change not only the way we do things, how we relate to others, but also what we know about ourselves. This article will first examine what AI is, discuss its impact on industrial, social, and economic changes on humankind in the 21 century, and then propose a set of principles for AI bioethics. The IR1.0, the IR of the 18 century, impelled a huge social change without directly complicating human relationships. Modern AI, however, has a tremendous impact on how we do things and also the ways we relate to one another. Facing this challenge, new principles of AI bioethics must be considered and developed to provide guidelines for the AI technology to observe so that the world will be benefited by the progress of this new intelligence.
人工智能(AI),有些人将其称为第四次工业革命(IR)4.0,它不仅将改变我们做事的方式、我们与他人的相处方式,还将改变我们对自身的认知。本文将首先探讨人工智能是什么,讨论其在21世纪对人类工业、社会和经济变革的影响,然后提出一套人工智能生物伦理原则。第一次工业革命(IR1.0)发生在18世纪,它推动了巨大的社会变革,却没有直接使人际关系复杂化。然而,现代人工智能对我们做事的方式以及我们彼此之间的相处方式都产生了巨大影响。面对这一挑战,必须考虑并制定新的人工智能生物伦理原则,为人工智能技术提供遵循的指导方针,以便让这一新型智能的进步造福世界。
