Infrastructuring Contestability: A Framework for Community-Defined AI Value Pluralism

  • 构建社区自主定义价值的动态系统框架
  • 用户可激活不同价值配置,掌握最终控制权
  • 适合关注算法透明与民主参与的研究者

AI系统的普及对人机交互与协同工作提出挑战,常削弱用户自主性且忽视价值多样性。现有价值对齐方法依赖中心化、自上而下的定义,缺乏有意义的可争议机制,使用户与社区无法挑战或塑造主导其数字生活的系统价值观,引发合法性与信任危机。本文提出社区定义的AI价值多元主义(CDAVP)框架,将设计问题从追求单一对齐转向构建价值协商与应用的动态生态系统。核心在于支持多样、自组织社区定义并维护明确的价值档案——包含偏好及社区特有权利与义务的机器可读表示。这些档案由终端用户在具体情境中激活,用户保有最终决策权。AI应用则需透明解读档案并调和冲突,遵循一套不可谈判、民主合法化的元规则。设计师角色从静态界面设计转为参与式生态架构。我们认为,为多元主义构建基础设施是实现稳健算法问责与真正可争议、以人为本的AI的必经之路。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The proliferation of AI-driven systems presents a fundamental challenge to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), often diminishing user agency and failing to account for value pluralism. Current approaches to value alignment, which rely on centralized, top-down definitions, lack the mechanisms for meaningful contestability. This leaves users and communities unable to challenge or shape the values embedded in the systems that govern their digital lives, creating a crisis of legitimacy and trust. This paper introduces Community-Defined AI Value Pluralism (CDAVP), a socio-technical framework that addresses this gap. It reframes the design problem from achieving a single aligned state to infrastructuring a dynamic ecosystem for value deliberation and application. At its core, CDAVP enables diverse, self-organizing communities to define and maintain explicit value profiles - rich, machine-readable representations that can encompass not only preferences but also community-specific rights and duties. These profiles are then contextually activated by the end-user, who retains ultimate control (agency) over which values guide the AI's behavior. AI applications, in turn, are designed to transparently interpret these profiles and moderate conflicts, adhering to a set of non-negotiable, democratically-legitimated meta-rules. The designer's role shifts from crafting static interfaces to becoming an architect of participatory ecosystems. We argue that infrastructuring for pluralism is a necessary pathway toward achieving robust algorithmic accountability and genuinely contestable, human-centric AI.
