國家安全視角下社交機器人的法律規制

網路與人工智慧技術的發展，以及流量經濟的運行機制，催生了社交媒體中的社交機器人。社交機器人的興起，既可能傳播假新聞，也可能在不涉及“真／假”問題的意見表達方面體現出其顯著影響。通過社交機器人發表的言論，網路與現實中對意見的認識都會受到干擾，並且可能產生作用於物理空間的社會後果，從而形成對言論自由的挑戰。這種挑戰在試圖影響政治的輿論中更為明顯，並可能與國際政治領域的“資訊戰”相疊加成為國家安全問題。因此，對人工智慧語境下社交媒體中的社交機器人言論，應當在總體國家安全觀指引下予以重視和規制，並在此基礎上重思言論自由的分析框架和思維模式。

The development of Internet and artificial intelligence technology and the flow economy have led to the rise of social hots in social media. The rise of social hots may not only spread fake news, but also have a significant impact on the expression of opinions that do not involve 'true/false' issues. The speech of social bots will interfere with the understanding of opinions on the Internet and in reality, and may have social consequences acting on the physical space, thus incurring the challenge to the freedom of speech. This challenge is more prominently reflected in the speech of political bots trying to influence politics, which has become a national security issue due to the 'information war' in international politics. Therefore, in the era of artificial intelligence, speech of social bots in the social media should be a matter of concern and regulated under the guidance of the holistic approach to national security, based on which the theoretical understanding of freedom of speech should be updated.
