AI and Self-Determination
Description
Book Introduction
AI is evolving to the point where it can replace human decisions.
We redefine the meaning of self-determination as a constitutional right and develop legal and philosophical discussions to ensure that humans are respected as subjects in the age of artificial intelligence.
It contains reflections on self-determination that maintains dignity.

Into the book
Throughout the history of technological advancement, machines that assist human convenience have frequently appeared through industrialization.
However, in an artificial intelligence environment, machines independently perform decisions delegated to humans, which is a technological innovation of a qualitatively different level from the past information age when computers assisted human information activities through digital processing.
In a technological context, if computing technology in the information age was an auxiliary tool for information processing by connecting to the Internet, artificial intelligence is an agent that performs tasks by simulating human intellectual abilities.
Amidst these technological changes, human self-determination is becoming increasingly important in terms of human dignity.
The key question will be how much human intervention will be exercised as artificial intelligence ultimately pursues complete autonomy.
Human autonomy can be explained as the process by which humans, as rational beings, reach decisions.
--- From “01_“Self-Determined Life””
All humans have an inherent desire to live their lives by their own decisions, without being controlled by others.
No one wants to be someone else's puppet or puppet.
In contrast, aren't we incredibly insensitive to the manipulation of artificial intelligence and machines? We react immediately to the influence exerted by others, yet we show little resistance to the presence of machines we don't recognize.
Today, the tuning of artificial intelligence algorithms is planned and calculated.
Advertisements, political propaganda, and covert criticism directed at certain groups cleverly exploit our emotions without us even realizing it.
Moreover, by constantly injecting provocative and brief content, they block the originally intended information and brainwash the person to even try to think for himself. These are the secret 'thought controllers'.
--- From “03_“Self-awareness and Artificial Intelligence Coordination””
A representative example of AI ethics is the 'Asilomar AI Principles', announced in January 2017 by the Future of Life Institute, a private organization comprised of experts in the field of AI.
This principle was announced after intense debate among experts from various fields as ethical issues in the research phase, which can control the risks of artificial intelligence in advance, became a public issue.
This principle consists of a total of 23 items, and the topics are set for issues in research (1-5), ethics and values (6-18), and long-term issues (19-23).
Above all, the Asilomar AI Principles set the goal of AI research as 'developing intelligence useful to humans.'
It also mentions the ethics and values of transparency, personal information protection, freedom, and privacy, which can be said to be core values of AI ethics discourse.
It was also emphasized that future superintelligence should be developed for the benefit of all humanity in a way that broadly shares ethical ideals.
Since then, companies have also begun announcing AI ethics principles.
--- From “06_“The Illusion of Scientific Neutrality and the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence””
Gerald Dworkin's concept of autonomy has an ideal of self-mastery and rational human nature.
Isaiah Berlin also found the rational self of man in reason, in a higher nature, in a self that is discovered through 'rational calculation' that will bring greater satisfaction in the long run.
So, the fully self-determined self is the 'true', 'ideal', 'autonomous' self, when I am at my 'best'.
Meanwhile, Gerald Dworkin's two perspectives on 'self-determination' confront the following two questions regarding the 'scope and limits of protection of the right to self-determination.'
First, does the autonomy presupposed by the right to self-determination presuppose substantive or procedural independence? If so, does it fall within the scope of the right to self-determination's protection?
Second, is it justifiable to leave the exercise of self-determination solely to individuals based on autonomy?

Publisher's Review
In the AI Age, Rethinking Human Self-Determination
Artificial intelligence is learning human language and thinking and entering a stage of autonomy.
This poses a fundamental threat to human self-determination beyond mere convenience.
When machines digitize humans and replace them in decision-making, how can human dignity and agency be preserved? This book systematizes the constitutional meaning of the right to self-determination in the age of artificial intelligence and illuminates self-determination as a fundamental right that transcends the protection of personal information.
It highlights the limitations of the first artificial intelligence law enacted in Korea and emphasizes the need for new controls and institutional responses across law, ethics, and society.
Furthermore, we explore specific topics such as self-awareness, the concept of freedom, social identity, types of AI decision-making systems, the myth of scientific neutrality, and the evolution of constitutional self-determination, and explore ways to prevent AI from objectifying humans.
Self-determination is not a complete value, but rather a foundation for a humane life that must be preserved within technology and community. This paper presents philosophical and legal reflections on how humans can remain masters of their own lives even amidst the AI revolution.
