Artificial intelligence has become a driving force for national development and competition in the new era.Given this premise,greater emphasis must be placed on the popularization of artificial intelligence(AI).Currently,societal perceptions of AI are constrained by traditional views,such as seeing AI merely as a tool or a daily object,which leads to a lack of comprehensive understanding of it.This Research explores the relationship between AI,the environment,and humanity,using concepts such as transparency,relevance,and augmentation.It proposes that AI popularization should be stratified and that traditional notions of popularization need to be altered.Stratified popularization means understanding AI from three levels:transparency pertains to the dissemination of AI mechanisms and principles,which is particularly meaningful for scientists;relevance concerns the relationship between AI and society,which holds significant social value and is closely related to the general public;and augmentation emphasizes the co-existence of humans and AI,which is crucial for humanity's future in dealing with super intelligence.Changing traditional popularization notions involves a cognitive shift regarding AI from a tool to an intelligent entity and from an object to environment.Only in this way can AI be better directed towards public welfare and promote the healthy development of a new generation of AI in China.
