Open the Future for Long-term AI and Human-AI Symbiotic Society!
Open the Future for Long-term AI and Human-AI Symbiotic Society!
The development of Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Intelligence will make life take a variety of forms, and the development vision of Human-centered Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Intelligence needs to be refined as soon as possible and better prepared as possible to cope with future changes and evolution. In the future society, the development of Artificial Intelligence, Augmented Intelligence, Digital Technology, Brain and Neuroscience will very likely enable the creation of intelligent lives that reach or even exceed the intelligence level of humans that are created by natural evolution, and the traditional human beings will probably no longer be at the top of the intelligence pyramid. How human beings can form a sustainable symbiotic society with natural life including themselves, non-human animals, plants and other types of living artificial intelligence is an important issue related to human existence, which will bring fundamental challenges to human survival and transformative opportunities for human development.
Ethics in a sustainable symbiotic society will not be limited to how humans should and should not interact with other humans, but will extend at least to how members of the "human-based" core of a sustainable symbiotic society that is with different forms of living intelligence relate to each other, and to give designs for how to relate to other life besides them. This study presents basic principles for the types of intelligent life in the "human-based" core and their interactions with other life in the sustainable symbiotic society.

The AI4SDGs Cooperation Network is aimed at advancing UN Sustainable Development Goals and Digital Cooperation through AI Innovation and Partner Networks with AI related institutions, universities, AI industries etc. all over the world. It will collectively promote the realization of SDGs through AI, advancing the development of the 17 areas of SDGs with beneficial use of AI, and avoid the negative impacts. The AI4SDGs Cooperation Network will especially support the underdeveloped countries and regions, and promote the realization of leaving no one behind. The AI4SDGs Think Tank and Cooperation Network is led by Center for Long-term Artificial Intelligence (CLAI) with supports from various academic institutions, and industries as partners all over the world. For more details, please visit the AI4SDGs Cooperation Network website .
Realizing global sustainable AI development requires international cooperation on AI infrastructures, ethical and governance frameworks and mechanisms of interactions and coordination, especially taking into account different cultural perspectives. Currently, there are many obstacles to achieving this goal, such as relatively lower interests to appreciate differences in cultures and values, distrust between cultures and coordination challenges across regions. This forum will discuss these challenges and explore how to increase cross-cultural trust, cooperation for AI ethics and governance between different countries and regions, share experiences, learning in a complementary view, promote common values for human good, and lead us to a symbiotic future.

For the long term quest on the scientific nature of Artificial Intelligence, we need to explore the mechanisms of the biological brain and mind and use them as sources of inspirations to create computational models for cognitive intelligent machines and future computational conscious living AI. We need to realize that human and future brain-inspired conscious living AI form a Human-AI symbiotic society. Click the full version here Brain-inspired Conscious Living AI: A Mirror to Humankind
This research focus on Philosophy, technologies, and policies for AI-enabled Sustainable Symbiotic Society. The first result focus on Human-AI Symbiosis, especially for how the future of human can co-exist with Artificial General Intelligence and Superintelligence. We need to have proper ways to develop future living AIs as partners for human. We not only need principles for AI to interact with human, we but also need principles for human to interact with AI.

The United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA) and the European Commission co-hosted a workshop on "Ethics and Emerging Technologies in Weapons Systems" in April 2022. The director of Center for Long-term AI, Prof. Yi Zeng was invited as a speaker. The following is a recording of his speech.

Military Artificial Intelligence (AI) has already brought great risks and challenges to the world, and we should be vigilant against the lowering of the threshold of war due to the development of military AI, and reduce avoidable disasters. "Defense Artificial Intelligence and Arms Control Network" advocates that the design, research, development, use and deployment of military AI throughout the whole life cycle should comply with the following principles Principles on Military Artificial Intelligence | Defense AI and Arms Control Network (defense-ai-and-arms-control.network)
Defense AI and Arms Control Network is a network for enabling expert discussions and idea exchanges in the field of Defense AI and Arms Control, Military AI Ethics, Governance and Global Cooperation, and AI for Peace. It also provides online services to synthesize global discussions on these topics from complementary perspectives, and provide a global view to promote AI for peace.
