Abstract

 (AI)using pre-eminent and ubiquitous artificial intelligence (AI) to transform the public sector into an entirely new form of service provides opportunities for transforming society from fundamentally different principles of public-service provision, yielding entirely new modes of government. In so doing, the following paper details the present status of AI development concerning the public interest. Together with AI risks, such as loss of data ownership and privacy rights, risks arising from the opacity of the algorithms, social and ethical issues caused by algorithmic decisions and risks of displacements posed by the development of AI to employment structure, we propose addressing the scope and the strategy to reduce different kinds of risks from multiple dimensions. It aims to form better and sound data governance to be reinforced and strengthened, embed ethical considerations in responsible AI, promote skill transformation of workforce, and achieve synergistic benefits around the globe; all in order to meet the challenge of constructing a China-pattern for bridging the rigor of theories with the practices of concerns.
