Challenges and Cracks: Ethical Issues in the Development of Artificial Intelligence

In June 2023, the Nishan Dialogue on Digital Civilisation of the World Internet Conference was held in China. At this conference, China proposed for the first time, in the era of artificial intelligence (AI), to build a digital world of exchange, mutual appreciation and tolerance, hoping to gather the wisdom of the internet community and seek the governance of digital civilisation. In recent years, with the rapid development and wide recognition of AI technology, how to solve the AI ethical issues generally faced by the international community has become the focus of attention. By analysing the current status of AI ethics and governance in the United States and the European Union, and comparing it with China's development in recent years, this article further advances the exploration of Chinese solutions to the global ethical governance of AI. On this basis, it responds positively to the call of the United Nations and international organisations to explore solutions to the four main realities of: (a) phenomenon of alienation of labour competition brought about by AI technology; (b) infringement of the subject's personal privacy and impact on the ethics of responsibility for awareness and undermining of social fairness; (c) justice to seek a path of avoidance for collaborative governance from government supervision, public constraints, technology; and (d) sound mechanisms, which can actively promote global AI ethics.
