英格兰银行行长表示，对人工智能进行监管“并不是正确的起点”，而应首先开展“严格”测试，以发现漏洞并制定防护措施来控制风险。
The Governor of the Bank of England has said regulating artificial intelligence (AI) "is not the right place to start" but instead called first for "rigorous" testing to find vulnerabilities and safeguards to contain risk.
贝利表示，不应停止或禁止人工智能的发展——“恰恰相反，其益处巨大”——但他补充说，必须建立干预机制，并划定人工智能运行的边界。
Bailey said the development of AI should not be halted or prohibited - "on the contrary, the benefits are immense" - but added there must be a system for intervention and to establish boundaries in which AI operates.
近几周，围绕人工智能快速发展的潜在风险，以及这对人类意味着什么 的讨论日益激烈。
In recent weeks, the debate about the potential risks surrounding the rapid development of AI and what it means for humanity has intensified.
Anthropic和OpenAI等领先人工智能企业的高管呼吁放缓这项技术的开发，并采取国际协调一致的方式评估风险、建立防护措施。
The bosses of leading AI firms such as Anthropic and OpenAI have called for development of the technology to slow down and for an internationally co-ordinated approach assessing risks and putting safeguards in place.
OpenAI最近宣布，出于安全方面的担忧，将不会发布其最新的人工智能模型。
OpenAI recently announced that it would not release its latest AI model due to safety concerns.
然而，放缓人工智能发展的想法遭到了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普等人的反对。特朗普表示，美国在人工智能竞赛中领先于中国，并补充说：“说实话，我希望保持这种领先，因为谁赢得人工智能，谁就会赢。”但周二，在主持了与OpenAI和Anthropic等人工智能领先企业举行的峰会后，特朗普表示，企业高管已签署了一份具有“道德约束力”的文件，将作为防范人工智能潜在风险的一种保障。根据该协议，各家公司负责确保自身技术的安全性。
The idea of a slowdown, however, has been rejected by the likes of President Donald Trump who has said the US is leading the AI race ahead of China, adding: "And, frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins AI, wins." But on Tuesday, after hosting a summit with the leading firms in AI such as OpenAI and Anthropic, Trump said executives had signed a "morally binding" document that would serve as a "form of protection" from AI's potential risks. Under the agreement, the companies are responsible for ensuring the safety of their own technology.
在英国，贝利表示，人工智能测试方面正在开展“重要工作”——英国已设立人工智能安全研究所——他说，该研究应有助于形成一套标准。
In the UK, Bailey said "important work" was underway in testing AI - the UK has set up the AI Security Institute - which, he said, should help form part of a set of standards.
“但进展速度必须加快，”这位银行行长说，不过他补充道：“我们应当抱着一定的谦逊态度推进。”他说，测试过程中会出现失败，“模型会以意想不到的方式运行”。
"But the pace of progress must accelerate," the bank governor said, though he added: "We should proceed with a degree of humility." He said, with testing, there will be failures and "models will behave unexpectedly".
但他表示：“这并非检测失败的证据，恰恰相反，它证明了检测的必要性。”
But, he said: "That is not evidence that testing has failed, rather it is evidence of why testing is necessary."
贝利指出，检测不应被视为未来监管的替代方案——随着时间推移，可能会形成更为正式的监管框架。“但在我看来，监管并非正确的起点。”
Bailey said that testing should not be seen as an alternative to future regulation - over time a more formal regulatory framework might emerge. "But regulation is not, in my view, the right place to start."
