人工智能辅助量刑的风险及其防范

The Risk of Artificial Intelligence Assisted Sentencing and Its Prevention

人工智能辅助量刑是当前我国司法改革的趋势之一。人工智能辅助量刑系统的建设和应用能够约束法官的行为,克服估堆量刑的弊端,防止法官滥用自由裁量权。需要警惕的是人工智能辅助量刑可能存在机械性风险、不透明性风险以及不可接受性风险。这些风险可能会对量刑公开以及量刑公正造成威胁,也容易导致过度限缩法官自由裁量权的后果。应当坚守法官的主体性和人工智能辅助量刑系统的工具性,防止出现法官过度依赖量刑辅助系统的现象;谨慎筛选数据,构建合理的算法模型,减少算法歧视;优化量刑程序,建立算法审查与算法问责机制,着力实现量刑公正。

Artificial intelligence assisted sentencing system is one of the current trends in China's judicial reform.The construction and application of artificial intelligence assisted sentencing system.can restrain the judges behavior,overcome the disadvantages of assessing the sentencing,and prevent the judges from abusing his discretion.It is important to be aware that AI-assisted sentencing may cause mechanical risks,opacity risks,and unacceptable risks.These risks can pose a threat to sentencing openness and sentencing justice.To prevent those risks,it is necessary to emphasize the judge's principal position and the tool position of artificial intelligence assisted sentencing system.It is also important to build a reasonable algorithm model,establish algorithm review and algorithm accountability mechanisms.
