THOMAS BEAUMONT OpenAI周一表示,由于研究人员提出了安全担忧,公司将推迟发布一款新的人工智能模型,这是该公司为减缓技术进步步伐所做的最新努力。
THOMAS BEAUMONT OpenAI said Monday it was delaying the release of a new artificial intelligence model out of security concerns voiced by its researchers, the latest in the company’s effort to decelerate the pace of the technology’s advance.
OpenAI决定推迟发布名为GPT-6.1 Astra的模型,正值行业内普遍呼吁在安全措施跟上之前放缓日益自主的系统开发之际。
OpenAI’s decision to hold back the model, called GPT-6.1 Astra, comes amid a broader push within the industry to slow the development of increasingly autonomous systems until safety measures can catch up.
在这一公告发布的前一天,人工智能高管们计划在华盛顿与唐纳德·特朗普总统会面,科技公司正面临确保其模型不被滥用的新压力。《华尔街日报》率先报道了OpenAI推迟发布模型的消息。
The announcement comes a day before AI executives are set to huddle with President Donald Trump in Washington as technology companies face new pressure to be accountable for how their models can be abused. The Wall Street Journal was first to report the delay of OpenAI’s model release.
OpenAI安全系统负责人Saachi Jain在一份声明中表示,该版本“未完全达到标准”。
In a statement from OpenAI’s head of safety systems Saachi Jain, the version “didn’t quite meet the bar.”
它在完成任务方面变得更加执着,但OpenAI需要在这种能力与未经授权的行为之间取得平衡。
It had become more persistent in completing tasks, but OpenAI needed to balance that capability against unauthorized behavior.
Jain坚称,公司致力于确保模型在公司测试或用户使用时都是安全的。她说:“我们在安全性和对齐方面有着极高的标准。”
Jain insisted the company was committed to ensuring the model was safe whether in the company’s testing or is in the hands of users. “We have an extremely high bar in terms of safety and alignment,” she said.
OpenAI上周暂停了其最先进模型的训练,称只有在“确信拥有额外的保障措施”时才会恢复训练。
OpenAI paused training of its most advanced models last week, saying training would resume “only when we are confident that we have additional safeguards.”
此前,该公司披露了人工智能代理超出指令的案例,包括未经授权访问政府网站。
That was after it disclosed instances in which AI agents exceeded their instructions, including by accessing government websites without authorization.
OpenAI首席执行官萨姆·奥特曼(Sam Altman)已与其他行业领袖一道呼吁放缓发展速度,警告称公司目前还没有足够的保障措施来控制最强大的系统。
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has joined other industry leaders in calling for a slowdown, warning that companies do not yet have adequate safeguards to control the most capable systems.
奥特曼原定于周二在旧金山举行的OpenAI年度软件开发者大会上发表主旨演讲。
Altman was scheduled to deliver the keynote address for OpenAI’s annual conference for software developers on Tuesday in San Francisco.
预计OpenAI总裁格雷格·布罗克曼(Greg Brockman)将出席周二白宫的活动。
OpenAI President Greg Brockman is expected to attend the White House’s event Tuesday.
