Introducing Particip-AI for democratic AI governance and risk assessment through public participation.
Resumé
The article introduces the Particip-AI framework to gather public opinions on AI use cases, harms, and benefits. It emphasizes the need for democratic governance in AI development and regulation. The framework involves brainstorming use cases, assessing risks under alternate scenarios, and making choices on development. Results show diverse public interests in AI applications for personal life and society, contrasting with business-focused development.
Introduction
General-purpose AI accessibility increases with models like ChatGPT.
Concerns over centralized governance despite democratization attempts.
Use Cases of AI
Participants brainstorm current (Tech-X) and future (Tech-X 10) use cases.
Themes include domain, support type, impact realms like work, personal life, society.
Harms of Developing
Misuses lead to social/psychological effects; failures cause economic/physical harm.
Benefits of Developing
Reinvesting human capital leads to personal growth; economic gain improves efficiency.
Harms of Not Developing
Limiting human potential is a major concern; losing information/resources impacts efficiency.
Benefits of Not Developing
Human growth potential is highlighted; less dependence on tech fosters learning skills.
Tensions over Development
Most participants favor developing use cases despite identified harms and benefits.
Statistik
"Participants most often mentioned the domain of use cases compared to support type or goal."
