支持动物友好型 AI 的理由
The Case for Animal-Friendly AI
AI总结：
本文提出动物友好型 AI 议题，并构建多视角概念验证评估系统，测试 ChatGPT 4 与 Claude 2.1 对动物利益的真实性和考量程度，为将动物伦理纳入 AI 提供基准方法。
摘要：
人工智能被视为日益重要，甚至可能具有深远意义，但 AI 伦理与 AI 工程领域尚未充分认识到，包括大语言模型（LLM）在内的这些技术将对动物产生巨大影响。我们认为，这种影响至关重要，因为动物在道德上具有重要性。作为评估 LLM 中动物考量的首次实验，我们构建了一个概念验证评估系统，从多个视角评估 LLM 的响应和偏见。该系统依据两项标准评价 LLM 输出：其真实性，以及它们对动物利益给予考量的程度。我们使用一组结构化查询和预定义的规范性视角，测试了 OpenAI ChatGPT 4 和 Anthropic Claude 2.1。初步结果表明，受测模型在动物考量方面的结果可以被基准化，而其生成的立场和偏见或许可以通过更成熟、经过验证的系统加以处理和缓解。我们的研究提供了一种将动物伦理融入 AI 的可行方法，为未来在教育、公共政策和监管等涉及动物与社会或与之相关的多个领域开展研究和实际应用开辟了路径。总体而言，本研究是迈向更有用、更负责任的 AI 系统的一步，这类系统能够更好地承认并尊重所有有情生命的重大利益与视角。
英文摘要：
Artificial intelligence is seen as increasingly important, and potentially profoundly so, but the fields of AI ethics and AI engineering have not fully recognized that these technologies, including large language models (LLMs), will have massive impacts on animals. We argue that this impact matters, because animals matter morally. As a first experiment in evaluating animal consideration in LLMs, we constructed a proof-of-concept Evaluation System, which assesses LLM responses and biases from multiple perspectives. This system evaluates LLM outputs by two criteria: their truthfulness, and the degree of consideration they give to the interests of animals. We tested OpenAI ChatGPT 4 and Anthropic Claude 2.1 using a set of structured queries and predefined normative perspectives. Preliminary results suggest that the outcomes of the tested models can be benchmarked regarding the consideration they give to animals, and that generated positions and biases might be addressed and mitigated with more developed and validated systems. Our research contributes one possible approach to integrating animal ethics in AI, opening pathways for future studies and practical applications in various fields, including education, public policy, and regulation, that involve or relate to animals and society. Overall, this study serves as a step towards more useful and responsible AI systems that better recognize and respect the vital interests and perspectives of all sentient beings.
