Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not new, but recent years have seen a growing concern about the technology’s political, economic and social impact, including debates about its governance. This paper describes how an analysis of the technology’s governance should build on the understanding of AI as the creation of artificial agents, and that the challenge that governance seeks to address is best understood as one of material agency. It describes how relevant rules can be systematically analyzed across different applications by considering the fundamental properties of artificial agents. The paper concludes by describing how the framework can be applied for further governance studies, and as a means to bridge insights across social science and technical perspectives on AI.

有什么规矩？构建人工代理的治理

人工智能 (AI) 并不新鲜，但近年来人们越来越关注该技术的政治、经济和社会影响，包括对其治理的争论。本文描述了对技术治理的分析应如何建立在将人工智能理解为人工代理的基础之上，以及治理寻求解决的挑战最好理解为物质代理之一。它描述了如何通过考虑人工代理的基本属性，在不同的应用程序中系统地分析相关规则。本文最后描述了如何将该框架应用于进一步的治理研究，并作为一种跨越社会科学和人工智能技术观点的桥梁。
