Emergency Response Ethics Governance:It is Imperative to Call off R&D of AGI and Other Profiteering Innovations
Taking AI explosion as an example,this paper explores how to prevent high-risk innovation that brings huge profits,and analyzes the reasons why AI is intensively invested despite its unprepossessing outlook,and why AGI,which surpasses human beings,has become a development goal.It also discusses the ethical and risk issues arising from AGI as a profiteering innovation,and elucidates the necessity and urgency of emergency response ethics governance and emergency risk governance,expanding the scope of governance on emergency response ethics to overcome the dysfunction of scientific eth-ics.AGI is not a new tool but a new species,and it is wrong to consider AGI as the trigger of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.The causes for the profitee-ring innovation include Windfall Effect,Coercion Effect,and Herd Effect,as well as experiential thinking,positive thinking,professional thinking,lucky thinking,emotional thinking,conformity thinking,and Adam Smith Trap,etc.As an effective tool for emergency response ethics governance and emer-gency risk governance,rescue governance applies bottom-line thinking,follows out the ethical principle of putting life first and respecting human rights,and implements a series of measures such as vetoes on safety issues.It proposes AI goodness testing to ensure human's sustainable security and develop-ment.
