1、ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND LIFE IN 2030 ONE HUNDRED YEAR STUDY ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE | REPORT OF THE 2015 STUDY PANEL | SEPTEMBER 2016 PREFACE The One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence, launched in the fall of 2014, is a long- term investigation of the field of Artificial Intellige
2、nce (AI) and its influences on people, their communities, and society . It considers the science, engineering, and deployment of AI-enabled computing systems. As its core activity , the Standing Committee that oversees the One Hundred Year Study forms a Study Panel every five years to assess the cur
3、rent state of AI. The Study Panel reviews AIs progress in the years following the immediately prior report, envisions the potential advances that lie ahead, and describes the technical and societal challenges and opportunities these advances raise, including in such arenas as ethics, economics, and
4、the design of systems compatible with human cognition. The overarching purpose of the One Hundred Year Studys periodic expert review is to provide a collected and connected set of reflections about AI and its influences as the field advances. The studies are expected to develop syntheses and assessm
5、ents that provide expert-informed guidance for directions in AI research, development, and systems design, as well as programs and policies to help ensure that these systems broadly benefit individuals and society . 1The One Hundred Year Study is modeled on an earlier effort informally known as the
6、“ AAAI Asilomar Study .” During 2008-2009, the then president of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), Eric Horvitz, assembled a group of AI experts from multiple institutions and areas of the field, along with scholars of cognitive science, philosophy , and law. Wor

A short written report on the intensive meeting discussions, am
8、plified by the participants subsequent discussions with other colleagues, generated widespread interest and debate in the field and beyond. The impact of the Asilomar meeting, and important advances in AI that included AI algorithms and technologies starting to enter daily life around the globe, spu

The One Hundred Year Study was subsequently endowed at a university to enable 1“One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence (AI100),” Stanford University, accessed August 1, 2016,https:/ai100.stanford.

The Standing Committee defined a Study Panel charge for the inaugural Study Panel in the summer of 2015 and recruited Professor Pe

The seventeen-member Study Panel, comprised of experts in AI from academia, corporate laboratories and industry , and AI-savvy scholars in law, political science, policy , and economics, was launched in mid-fall 2015. The participa

The Standing Committee extensively discussed ways to frame the Study Panel charge to consider both recent advances in AI and potential societal impacts on jobs, the environment, transportation, public safety , healthcare, community engagement, and government.
