Ethical Issues Arising from the Academic Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence and Their Countermeasures

Abstract

摘要： 生成式人工智能虽然问世不久,但已在学术领域得到广泛使用,由此引发的学术伦理问题受到了社会尤其是学界的高度关注。基于学术机构已出台的生成式人工智能学术伦理规范,可以提炼出生成式人工智能诱发的四类主要学术伦理问题,即难认定的内容剽窃、隐蔽性的数据泄露、系统性的知识偏见和自增强的虚假信息。与传统的学术伦理问题相比较,道德内疚感降低、系统性倾向固化、理解幻觉、算法机制不公开等原因是此种学术伦理问题的根源。针对上述问题,在借鉴相关学术伦理规范的基础上,应创新引注规范、审慎使用服务、人机双向理解和数据全程监管,以应对生成式人工智能带来的学术伦理冲击。
