算法认知战背后的战争规则之变与AI军备竞赛的警示

The Change of War Rules behind Algorithm Cognitive Warfare and the Warning of AI Arms Race

俄乌冲突已然成为全球AI前沿技术的“超级实验室”,极大地突破了法律和伦理的制约与边界。美国及其联合成立的北约组织借助算力、算法、数据和平台的强大智能优势,发动了强大的算法认知战,极大地改变了俄乌冲突双方的态势,新型的战争形态浮出水面。算法认知战基于全球一体化的网络空间,突破地域边界,形成全球性作战和动员能力,凸显了数字时代战争形态和规则的颠覆性变革。算法认知战具备能够超越国界,只需装备、技术、数据和情报等投入,深度策动并参与战争,威力大、效果好、成本低和几乎免除了战争的各种直接风险等特征,必将成为未来人工智能军备竞赛的重中之重。俄乌冲突昭示着AI技术的“科林格里奇困境”已经全面到来,算法认知战则成为首先挑战AI规范和伦理的行为,是对人工智能最危险的滥用之一。

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has become a“super laboratory”of global AI frontier technology,which has greatly broken through the constraints and boundaries of law and ethics.The United States and NATO have launched a powerful algorithm cognitive war with the help of their powerful intelligent advantages in computing power,algorithms,data and platforms,which has greatly changed the situation of both sides in the Russian Ukrainian conflict,and a new form of war has emerged.Based on the globally integrated cyberspace,algorithmic cognitive warfare breaks through regional boundaries to form a global combat and mobilization capability,highlighting the disruptive changes in the form and rules of war in the digital age.Algorithmic cognitive warfare,which can transcend national boundaries,requires only equipment,technology,data,intelligence and other inputs,deeply instigates and participates in the war,is powerful,effective,low in cost,and almost eliminates all kinds of direct risks of war.It will certainly become the top priority of the future AI arms race.The conflict between Russia and Ukraine indicates that the Collingridge’s dilemma of AI technology has arrived in an all-round way.Algorithmic cognitive warfare has become the first behavior to challenge AI norms and ethics,and is one of the most dangerous abuses of AI.
