The New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Technology ChatGPT Causes: Potential Legal Risks and Regulatory Countermeasures

Abstract

In the context of rapid development of economy, society and science and technology, artificial intelligence technology has been widely used in many fields such as labor and employment, ideological and political education, scientific ethics and technological research, and legal application in recent years, especially in the field of legal application, where there are also many development opportunities and risk challenges. ChatGPT, which was introduced in November 2022 as a general artificial intelligence technology, was once favored by all circles and attracted global buzz. However, while ChatGPT has brought great convenience to economic and social development, its high-tech feature of “talking more like human beings” has also triggered heated debates at various industry levels, mainly in the form of ethical considerations and many legal risks. Therefore, this paper examines ChatGPT's linguistic style, linguistic ability, and argumentative validity, taking the field of legal application as an example, with the aim of making a deep ethical consideration of this strong artificial intelligence language model. We also summarize the potential legal risks associated with the introduction of ChatGPT, such as authorship disputes, data source legitimacy disputes, and big data information leakage, in the context of existing practice. In response to the above issues, this article intends to propose a series of solutions.
