"발생 가능한 윤리적 문제는?"...AI 윤리 국가표준 첫 제정 / YTN

[Anchor] The craze for generative AI, like ChatGPT, is raising expectations for technological advancements, but also concerns about ethical issues. For the first time, a national standard for "AI ethics" has been established to serve as a guide for companies developing AI products and services. Reporter Yang Il-hyeok reports. [Reporter] When the CEO of the company that sparked the global AI craze visited Korea, ethics and regulation were among the biggest topics of discussion. [Choi Yong-ho / CEO of AI Avatar Company: I'm deeply concerned about regulations regarding the resurrection of the deceased and their ability to communicate with people. I'd like to seek advice on the direction AI should take in this regard.] However, even the developers of ChatGPT had no clear answer. [Sam Altman / CEO of OpenAI: We need to have a societal conversation about how we view human rights and what we want. What kind of system restrictions and regulations should there be… I don't have all the answers yet.] The advancement of AI has brought surprises and excitement, but ethical issues have emerged in many places. Italy once blocked access to ChatGPT due to concerns about personal information exposure, and many schools around the world have banned its use to prevent cheating. Large companies are developing their own ethical guidelines when developing AI, but it's not easy for small businesses to follow suit. [Jeon Hye-jeong / Research Fellow at LG Electronics' AI Research Institute: The most common scenario involves crawling images from the internet for training. This can lead to the inclusion of copyrighted images. In our case, we purchased copyrighted content…] Amidst this, a national standard was created for companies to self-assess their AI ethics. We created a checklist of ethical considerations when developing products or services. We also presented examples of how AI can be used in diverse fields, such as chatbots, autonomous driving, and CCTV. [Jin Jong-wook / Director of the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards: Most Korean companies have struggled with how to apply these standards. We decided to create a national standard to ensure that ethical standards can be utilized across all industries.] However, since this national standard is intended to assist private companies in entering the market rather than being a mandate or regulation, it remains to be seen how effective it will be in laying the foundation for AI ethics.
