Progress, Challenges, and Future Path of AI Ethics Governance in China

Abstract

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) presents both opportunities and challenges, particularly in navigating its ethical implications. While AI offers transformative potential across industries, concerns regarding bias, transparency, accountability, and societal impact necessitate robust ethical frameworks. This study investigates China’s approach to AI ethics governance, aiming to analyze its effectiveness and identify areas for improvement. The research question guiding this study is: What are the key challenges and opportunities facing China in establishing a comprehensive and effective framework for AI ethics governance? Building on existing literature examining global AI ethic frameworks and China’s policy landscape, this research adopts a mixed-methods approach. This includes analyzing relevant policies and regulations, conducting case studies of AI applications in various sectors. The expected outcome is a comprehensive understanding of China’s AI ethic governance landscape, highlighting its strengths, weaknesses, and potential future directions. This research contributes to the ongoing global discourse on AI ethics by providing valuable insights into the experiences and approaches of a major player in the field.
