zhōng guó中国gěi给AIrén quán人权wèn tí问题de的yī kè一课
China is often mentioned because it uses AI for surveillance and also restricts some people's freedom.
Recently, an engineer discovered that the smart robot vacuum at home might be remotely controlled. Not only could someone see images from inside the house, but they could also hear sounds and find the address.
Although the company quickly fixed the problem, this incident showed everyone that AI surveillance is very close to our daily lives and can also bring danger.
Today, AI surveillance is not only found in China. Many countries use it too, for example to identify and track people with facial recognition, and even to use AI in war and online propaganda.
China has also introduced many AI laws that require companies to protect personal information and improve transparency, but these laws place more emphasis on national security and do not place many limits on government power.
Many people enjoy the convenience brought by AI, but they do not fully understand their rights, nor do they know the risks of data leaks and being monitored.
This situation reminds the world that when developing AI, we should not only look at how fast or how powerful the technology is. We must also put people at the center, protect privacy, freedom, and safety, and let everyone decide together how AI should be used.
