The Western Ideal of “Technological Neutrality” and the “Guardian” Paradox in National Governance——An Exploration of ChatGPT's Practical Applications

  • The powerful AI language model ChatGPT received widespread acclaim upon its release. While we celebrate the technological breakthrough, we must remain vigilant about the risks associated with this Western-origin technology. Although the West repeatedly emphasizes 'the value neutrality of technology' when pushing for profit maximization in international markets, such claims should not be easily trusted. This paper examines the actual use of ChatGPT, one of the latest technologies from the West, and finds that technology's value is not neutral; it serves as a defense for the governance hardware and software of Western countries and protects their national interests, while being exclusive, negative, and critical of the governance hardware and software of non-Western friendly nations. Only when focusing on individual micro-users does technology exhibit non-exclusivity.
