Research overview

This study analyzes the impact of AI applications on marine pollution prevention, marine ecology and environmental conservation, marine industry development, and other societal issues, and provides legal and policy recommendations. In addition, in the soft infrastructure, such as regulation adjustment and policy planning, the research team will evaluate how to reduce the impact of AI on society, including employment, prejudice, ethics, and regulation, and propose solutions and feedback for AI research and development in the ocean.

Specific expected results and outcomes for related governance include a comprehensive review and comparison of the policies related to marine affairs in Taiwan, forward-looking policy recommendations for the policy construction and legalization of AI in marine applications, the development of strategies for upgrading the marine industry and AI development in Taiwan and proposals for legislative amendments. The "Artificial Intelligence Marine Law Legislation Draft" is expected to be completed and proposed by the end of the fourth year, according to the research's implementation schedule. The research of sub-project D core focuses on human-related issues and AI's social impact and legal response.
