Abstract

Algorithm is the core category and basic methods of the digital age, and advanced technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, and blockchain all need to rely on various algorithm designs or take the algorithm as the underlying principle. However, due to the characteristics of algorithm design, application, and technology itself, there are also hidden worries such as algorithm black-box, algorithm discrimination, and difficulty in accountability in the operation process to varying degrees. This paper summarizes these problems into three aspects: unexplainable, self-reinforcing and autonomous. Facing the opportunities and risks generated by the application of the algorithm in national governance, while actively promoting the development of algorithm technology to continuously promote the modernization process of national governance, it is also necessary to increase the governance of the algorithm. The practice has proved that enhancing the interpretability of algorithm, optimizing algorithm design, and adopting legal regulatory algorithm are the basic approaches to effective regulatory algorithm in the era of intelligent governance.
