On the Transparency of Artificial Intelligence System

Abstract

In order to improve the effectiveness of the management of artificial intelligence system, there is a growing demand for improving the transparency of artificial intelligence system from all parts of society. Improving the transparency of artificial intelligence system is conducive to relevant personnel better assuming their responsibilities and protecting the public’s right to know. Therefore, the principle of transparency appears most frequently in all kinds of ethical principles and ethical guidelines of artificial intelligence, but there are some differences in the definition of its connotation by different subjects. The transparency of artificial intelligence system is reflected in many aspects like algorithm interpretation, data transparency and function transparency. We need to fully understand the limit of artificial intelligence transparency from the perspective of the characteristics of intelligence, the current situation of artificial intelligence technology and the feasibility of technical governance. For the construction path of artificial intelligence system transparency, there are many ways, such as technical approach, ethical and legal regulation and cultural approach.
