Nancai Review: In the last two days of May, Beishangshen successively issued policy documents on supporting the artificial intelligence industry. The enlightenment is that to develop the artificial intelligence industry, each city can have its own focus and focus, thus forming its own unique differentiated development path. "Inclusive and prudent" supervision can enable the AI industry to achieve a dynamic balance between efficiency and safety, which is crucial to the current development of the mainland AI industry. "Tolerance" does not mean "laissez-faire", "prudence" is to better "control", and issues that touch the bottom line of the rule of law and the red line of supervision must be strictly supervised according to law.
Digital economy and intellectual property

Overseas compliance
1. The "AI Risk Statement" open letter was released
On May 30, an "AI Risk Statement" with only one sentence content was jointly signed by more than 370 authoritative experts in the field of AI, including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Turing Award winner Yoshua Bengio, the "father of deep learning" and Geoffrey Hinton. "Mitigating the risk of extinction posed by AI should be a global priority, as should other society-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war," the statement said. ”
Nancai Review: The purpose of the open letter is not to hinder the development of artificial intelligence, but to explore the way for the steady development of artificial intelligence. Exploring "artificial intelligence for sustainable development" may be a beneficial choice, and gradually improving the level of intelligence in the true sense of artificial intelligence can make artificial intelligence technology truly sustainable.
The challenges of long-term artificial intelligence are still possible if we start to study how to avoid its risks from now on, and this risk of artificial intelligence in the near future is even more urgent. In the long term, when general artificial intelligence and superintelligence arrive, because the level of intelligence may far exceed that of humans, superintelligence regards humans as if humans see ants, and many people think that superintelligence will compete with humans for resources and even endanger the survival of human beings. In the near future, because contemporary artificial intelligence is only a seemingly intelligent information processing tool, it has no real ability to understand and is not really intelligent, so it will make mistakes that humans will not make in ways that humans cannot predict. Artificial intelligence neither understands what is human, what is life and death, nor what is existential risk, but only mechanically performs a certain operation, and if maliciously used, misused and abused, the risk will be almost impossible to predict and control.
2. The OECD considers revising AI guidelines
On May 29, OECD Secretary-General Matthias Coleman revealed in an interview that the organization is considering revising the AI principles developed in 2019, and plans to discuss the new guidelines as early as June and produce results by the end of the year.
