Abstract:
This paper investigates the ethical implications of applying open science (OS) practices on disruptive technologies, such as generative AIs. Disruptive technologies, characterized by their scalability and paradigm-shifting nature, have the potential to generate significant global impact, and carry a risk of dual use. The tension arises between the moral duty of OS to promote societal benefit by democratizing knowledge and the risks associated with open dissemination of disruptive technologies. Van Rennselaer Potter\'s \'third bioethics\' serves as the founding horizon for an ethical framework to govern these tensions. Through theoretical analysis and concrete examples, this paper explores how OS can contribute to a better future or pose threats. Finally, we provide an ethical framework for the intersection between OS and disruptive technologies that tries to go beyond the simple \'as open as possible\' tenet, considering openness as an instrumental value for the pursuit of other ethical values rather than as a principle with prima facie moral significance.
摘要:
本文研究了在破坏性技术上应用开放科学(OS)实践的伦理意义,如生成AI。颠覆性技术,以它们的可扩展性和范式转换性质为特征,有可能产生重大的全球影响,并有双重使用的风险。操作系统通过使知识民主化来促进社会利益的道德义务与与破坏性技术的公开传播相关的风险之间存在紧张关系。VanRennselaerPotter的“第三生物伦理学”是治理这些紧张局势的伦理框架的基础。通过理论分析和具体实例,本文探讨了操作系统如何为更好的未来做出贡献或构成威胁。最后,我们为操作系统和颠覆性技术之间的交叉提供了一个道德框架,试图超越简单的“尽可能开放”的原则,将开放视为追求其他伦理价值的工具性价值,而不是具有表面道德意义的原则。
