AI文化对齐应双向互动，而非单向灌输标准价值观。
Rethinking AI Cultural Alignment
- 提出文化对齐是人与AI双向互动过程，非单向灌输。
- GPT-4o案例显示用户交互方式决定文化对齐效果。
- 适合关注AI伦理、跨文化应用的研究者与开发者。
随着通用人工智能系统日益融入多元人类社群，文化对齐成为部署中的关键要素。现有方法多将文化对齐视为单向过程，即把标准化调查和知识库中的预设文化价值观嵌入AI系统。为挑战这一观点，我们指出人类文化价值观必须置于具体AI系统的上下文中理解。通过GPT-4o案例研究，我们证明AI的文化对齐程度取决于人类如何组织与系统的交互。基于此，我们认为文化对齐应重新定义为双向过程：不应仅向AI灌输标准化价值观，而应探究每类AI系统相关的最相关人类文化价值观，并通过由用户塑造的交互框架实现对齐。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
As general-purpose artificial intelligence (AI) systems become increasingly integrated with diverse human communities, cultural alignment has emerged as a crucial element in their deployment. Most existing approaches treat cultural alignment as one-directional, embedding predefined cultural values from standardized surveys and repositories into AI systems. To challenge this perspective, we highlight research showing that humans' cultural values must be understood within the context of specific AI systems. We then use a GPT-4o case study to demonstrate that AI systems' cultural alignment depends on how humans structure their interactions with the system. Drawing on these findings, we argue that cultural alignment should be reframed as a bidirectional process: rather than merely imposing standardized values on AIs, we should query the human cultural values most relevant to each AI-based system and align it to these values through interaction frameworks shaped by human users.
