Since the concept was first proposed in 1956, the development of artificial intelligence technology has experienced many ups and downs. In recent years, with the integration and development of emerging technologies such as big data, cloud computing, the Internet, and the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence has ushered in a period of vigorous development and has become one of the world-recognized representatives of cutting-edge technologies. In the new wave of accelerating technological and industrial revolutions, artificial intelligence technologies such as image classification, speech recognition, question and answer systems, human-computer interaction, and driverless driving are becoming the decisive force in promoting the upgrading of traditional industries and the development of the global economy. As a new engine, countries around the world have taken the development of artificial intelligence as an important means to enhance national competitiveness and maintain national security. However, a coin has two sides, and the rapid advancement of technology is also accompanied by a sudden rise in risks. The famous physicist Hawking once said that the rise of powerful artificial intelligence may be the best thing or the worst thing for mankind. While people exclaim that "the future is here", they are also worried about "the security of the future." Artificial intelligence security issues are receiving more and more attention.
Artificial intelligence security refers to taking necessary measures to prevent attacks, intrusions, interference, destruction, illegal use and accidents on the artificial intelligence system, keeping the artificial intelligence system in a stable and reliable operating state, and following the people-oriented nature of artificial intelligence and the consistency of rights and responsibilities. and other security principles to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, availability, robustness, transparency, fairness and privacy of artificial intelligence algorithm models, data, systems and product applications. Artificial intelligence security involves endogenous security, derived security and development security, and is a key area of national security.
Promoting good “wisdom” through good governance
General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out: "Artificial intelligence is a strategic technology that leads this round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, and has a strong 'goose' effect with strong spillover effects."
Artificial intelligence is a new field of human development and the most cutting-edge emerging field of national security. As an enabling technology, artificial intelligence has strong innovative capabilities and wide application scenarios in intelligent interaction, decision-making assistance, intelligent modeling, etc. It can drive the overall improvement and leap-forward development of national security capabilities and is an important factor in maintaining and supporting the economy, science and technology. , network and other fields of security. As a revolutionary technology, artificial intelligence has dual characteristics of technical and social attributes. The development and application of artificial intelligence will have a series of impacts on ethics and social stability. How to achieve a balance between the development and governance of artificial intelligence is a matter of national security. important issues of governance.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has been far-sighted, seizing the opportunity of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, elevating the development of artificial intelligence to a strategic level, deepening the research and development and application of artificial intelligence, and carrying out "artificial intelligence +" Action, promote artificial intelligence to empower thousands of industries, vigorously promote the transformation of development methods, optimize economic structure, and transform growth drivers, and strongly support the improvement of modern industrial systems and the development of new productive forces, smart farms, smart factories, smart ports, smart homes, smart Application scenarios such as education have been greatly expanded, and the people's growing needs for a better life have been continuously met. China's artificial intelligence innovation level has entered the forefront of the world, providing new surging momentum for the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation.
Promoting reliability through controllability
The development of artificial intelligence technology, like other technological advances, is also a "double-edged sword." Due to the uncertainty of technology and the widespread application, it may bring many risks to national security and people's interests. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare for a rainy day. We must strengthen strategic research and judgment on the development of artificial intelligence, strengthen forward-looking prevention and restraint guidance, and minimize risks. .
Generally speaking, as the application of artificial intelligence technology deepens in different fields, the security risks it causes also cover multiple levels such as the country, society, enterprises and individuals. Criminals may use artificial intelligence technology to carry out illegal and criminal activities such as data theft, cyber attacks, economic crimes, and the production and dissemination of false information. Hostile forces may even carry out attacks and smears, public opinion building, cultural infiltration and other interference and sabotage activities, which will affect national security and social order. Brings risks and challenges.
China has always regarded encouraging the innovative development of artificial intelligence as its top priority, and taking effective prevention and resolution of artificial intelligence security risks as its starting point and goal. In accordance with the concept of risk management, it closely combines the characteristics of artificial intelligence technology, analyzes the sources and manifestations of artificial intelligence risks, and targets Carry out comprehensive prevention and systematic governance of endogenous security risks such as model algorithm security, data security, and system security, as well as application security risks in the network domain, real domain, cognitive domain, and ethical domain, and promote the active participation and collaborative governance of all parties in society. Continuously cultivate a safe, reliable, fair and transparent artificial intelligence technology research and development and application ecosystem, and promote the healthy and orderly development of artificial intelligence.
Promote sharing through co-construction
Artificial intelligence governance is related to the destiny of all mankind and is a common issue faced by all countries in the world. As a major country in artificial intelligence technology, China has always been committed to building a community with a shared future for mankind in the field of artificial intelligence, actively promoting the deepening of international cooperation in artificial intelligence development and governance, and has successively proposed the "China's Position Paper on Strengthening the Ethical Governance of Artificial Intelligence" and "Global Artificial Intelligence Governance". Initiative" and a series of document initiatives. The proposed resolution on strengthening international cooperation in artificial intelligence capacity building was unanimously adopted by the 78th United Nations General Assembly. It continues to provide Chinese solutions and contribute Chinese wisdom to promote the global governance of artificial intelligence, and has received high praise from the international community. evaluate. China has recently established the China-BRICS Artificial Intelligence Development and Cooperation Center and is willing to deepen innovation cooperation with all parties to unleash the power of artificial intelligence.
Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee, national security agencies will implement the overall national security concept, work with relevant departments to take effective actions to safeguard the safety of artificial intelligence, and ensure that artificial intelligence always moves in a direction that is conducive to safeguarding national security, promoting social progress, and enhancing people's well-being. direction development.
