摘要: 出版的历史可以看做是技术创新应用在出版领域的历史,从手抄本的出现到印刷术的普及,再到如今电子书的广泛应用,无一不彰显着技术创新对出版领域产生的巨大影响。那么,人工智能技术是否也有同样的潜力成为出版领域未来进程中的游戏改变者?从历史的发展进程来看,过去的许多创新都有预期的影响,也有非预期的影响。人工智能技术应用到学术出版领域存在明显优势,也可能存在潜在风险。总体上来看,人工智能技术应用到学术出版领域所带来的优势似乎超过其潜在风险,但是要始终牢记创新的非预期影响。将人工智能技术引入学术出版的过程中,我们需要相应的规则和指导方针,遵守以下四项原则:透明性原则、实践性原则、最终目标原则、参与性原则。

Abstract: The history of publishing can be seen as a history of publishing innovation. From the invention of the codex book form, the printing press, until digitization of book content, some innovations had huge impact on the development of human mankind. Has Artificial Intelligence(AI)the same potential to be a game changer in the future course of the publishing industry? When we analyze past developments and innovations, we can clearly see that many innovations in the past had intended consequences, but many also had consequences that were neither foreseen during the development process, not intended. Understanding that, we are looking at benefits of using AI techniques within academic publishing, but also at potential risks and downsides that can potentially harm the distribution with new, accurate, and relevant knowledge. We come to the conclusion that currently the benefits seem to outweigh the potential risk, but keeping in mind that innovation may also have unforeseen consequences, we need rules and guidelines in the process of integrating AI methods into the publishing process. These guidelines should include four principles: "Transparency", "Experiments", "End Goal" and "Participation".
