用怪兽理论解析AI的矛盾形象,揭示其社会文化根源。

Between Fear and Desire, the Monster Artificial Intelligence (AI): Analysis through the Lenses of Monster Theory

  • 以怪兽理论七条核心观点分析AI认知
  • 发现AI如怪兽般复杂,需在社会文化中理解
  • 适合关注AI伦理与公众认知的研究者阅读

随着人工智能在各领域及日常活动中的广泛应用,关于AI的优劣与挑战的讨论日益激烈,亟需应对相关担忧以最大化其价值。为推动这一研究并参与相关讨论,本研究借鉴怪兽理论,阐释人工智能在大众文化中矛盾形象的成因。研究提出,通过分析流行文化中的怪兽,可深入理解人工智能及其‘怪异’影响。具体而言,本文运用怪兽理论的七项核心命题,探讨人们对AI的认知与演变。结果表明,人工智能的本质如同怪兽一般复杂,不应将其视为孤立实体,而应置于特定社会或文化语境中考察。此外,读者对人工智能的解读也如对怪兽的理解一样存在多样性。研究揭示,人工智能与怪兽之间的关联,并不像初看那般突兀。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

With the increasing adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in all fields and daily activities, a heated debate is found about the advantages and challenges of AI and the need for navigating the concerns associated with AI to make the best of it. To contribute to this literature and the ongoing debate related to it, this study draws on the Monster theory to explain the conflicting representation of AI. It suggests that studying monsters in popular culture can provide an in-depth understanding of AI and its monstrous effects. Specifically, this study aims to discuss AI perception and development through the seven theses of Monster theory. The obtained results revealed that, just like monsters, AI is complex in nature, and it should not be studied as a separate entity but rather within a given society or culture. Similarly, readers may perceive and interpret AI differently, just as readers may interpret monsters differently. The relationship between AI and monsters, as depicted in this study, does not seem to be as odd as it might be at first.
