人工智慧時代之資料治理與法制初探

Data Governance and Legal System in Artificial Intelligence Age

第四波產業革命是以資料科學為主導的科技典範，因此資料具有前所未見的價值，如何開發資料的價值同時又保障個人的人格權益，是當前在資料治理上的主要課題。本文分別從科技法律發展史的縱向分析，以及國際政治經濟競爭的橫向觀察，說明資料治理的主要議題，包括如何建立全新的制度規範，如何協調不同國家的文化與政治因素。透過此分析，本文進而探討臺灣應如何善用晶片製造優勢，在當代資料驅動型經濟體系中發揮關鍵影響力。臺灣對內應透過數位發展部之成立，積極規劃國家資料治理策略，進行對大眾的公共溝通以利達成社會共識，對外則應追隨美國與歐盟正形成的自由民主同盟體系，對抗數位極權主義的擴張。

The so-called fourth industrial revolution is based on new paradigm as data science. Therefore, data have been claimed by many as the most valuable asset in 21st century. Many countries are facing the challenge of how to make the best use of data and also protect the personal privacy or dignity. This article analyzes the data governance issues through twofold approach. On the one hand, we should understand the new meanings and value of data from a perspective of technology and law. On the other hand, data governance is embedded into an emerging new world order, which has the background of China’s rise. Based upon this twofold analysis, this article concludes with suggestions for Taiwan’s future data governance policy. Firstly, Taiwan should launch its national data governance strategy, following with the establishment of Digital Development Department. Secondly, Taiwan should leverage its strength on semiconductor manufacturing to engage the international negotiations. Afterall, Taiwan is on the front of the threat of digital totalitarianism.
