摘要
作为一种自主算法决策,人工智能技术已经渗透到公共决策过程的各个环节,使公共决策模式产生重大变革。本文基于公共政策循环理论的视角,提出了一个人工智能算法对公共政策的问题界定与议程设置、政策制定、政策执行和政策评估四个阶段的影响与应用的分析框架,指出人工智能算法通过其大数据处理能力和预测分析能力,对提高公共决策的科学性、精准性和有效性发挥了巨大的作用。与此同时,人工智能算法存在的算法偏见、预测偏差和算法"黑箱"等问题可能引发公共决策失灵和合法性危机。最后,本文还提出,为了合理利用人工智能技术提高公共决策的有效性,规避算法决策的风险,决策者应关注人工智能算法决策与人类常规性决策的应用范围、适用性以及两者之间的互补协调关系,同时在算法驱动的公共决策各个环节中加强公共参与,建立参与式算法决策框架。
Artificial intelligence as an autonomous algorithm for decision-making has been gaining momentum in all aspects of public decision-making,and has produced a major change in public decision-making models.However,the inherent defects and misuse of algorithmic decision-making in specific environments may also bring about many potential risks.Based on the theory of public policy cycles,this paper proposes an analytical framework for the application of AI algorithmic decision-making and its impact on the four stages of public policymaking,i.e.,problem definition and agenda setting,policy making,policy implementation,and policy evaluation.This paper points out that AI algorithmic decision-making has played a huge role in improving the scientificity,precision and effectiveness of public decision-making by virtue of AI’s big data and predictive capabilities.At the same time,problems such as algorithmic bias,prediction bias and algorithmic black box in AI algorithmic decision-making may lead to failures in public decision-making and policy legitimacy crisis,posing a potential threat to principal public values such as reliability,fairness and transparency.Therefore,it is of great significance to clarify the impact and risk of AI algorithmic decision-making,highlight the suitability of algorithmic decision and propose implications for governance strategies.
