The functional value, technical foundation and normative system of algorithmic transparency are worthy of discussion. At the value level, in addition to the two instrumental values, namely the value of improvement and the value of proof, algorithmic transparency also has such endogenous values as enhancing communication, rationality and trust in the algorithmic society and supervising the power of algorithms, which promote personal freedom and safeguard human dignity. At the technical level, explainable artificial intelligence has developed rapidly in recent years, forming technical levels such as model-centric transparency and subject-centered transparency, intrinsic transparency and post-event transparency, and observable, decomposable and simulated transparency, which provide a technical basis for opening the algorithmic black box. At the normative level, the current algorithmic transparency system swings left and right in the nature of norms, and the aforementioned value objectives, technical foundation and normative system should be coupled with each other to build a multi-level system composed of flexible norms, neutral norms and rigid norms. |
