Ethical and Social Issues
With the rapid progress of science and technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has penetrated into all areas of our lives. However, just as the development of any technology is accompanied by the characteristics of a double-edged sword, AI translation, while bringing us great convenience, has also triggered a series of ethical and social issues that cannot be ignored. The advancement of AI translation technology has gradually broken down the barriers between languages, facilitating the flow of global information and cultural exchanges. However, what comes along with it are concerns about personal privacy protection, challenges to intellectual property rights, and the impact on the traditional translation industry. These issues not only test the ethical boundaries of technological development, but also profoundly affect social fairness and justice. In the field of AI translation, we should pay attention not only to the innovation and application of technology, but also to the ethical and social impact behind it. We need to think about how to balance the convenience of technology with the bottom line of ethics, and how to promote the healthy development of technology while safeguarding personal privacy and intellectual property rights.
