众议院农业委员会主席表示，他不愿意“接受糟糕的结果”作为人工智能进步利益的权衡--这是对OpenAI首席执行官萨姆·奥尔特曼的直接反驳。“作为一个从事医疗保健工作28年的人，我永远不愿意接受糟糕的结果。我认为我们只需要尽力而为，”众议员GT宾夕法尼亚州共和党人汤普森周一告诉记者。他是在回应奥尔特曼对《政治解密》的评论时说，人们“应该为了这项技术和拥有该机构的人们的利益而接受一些不好的事情发生。”
The chair of the House Agriculture Committee said he’s not willing to “accept bad results” as a tradeoff for the benefits of advancements in artificial intelligence — a direct rebuttal to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. “As someone who practiced health care for 28 years, I'm never willing to accept bad results. I think we just need to do our best,” Rep. G.T. Thompson, a Pennsylvania Republican, told reporters Monday. He was responding to Altman’s comments to Decoded by POLITICO that people “should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology and people having the agency.”Pressed further on whether he agreed with Altman’s premise, Thompson replied, “No, I think we have to work harder to prevent any bad things from happening."
当被进一步追问他是否同意奥特曼的前提时，汤普森回答说：“不，我认为我们必须更加努力地防止任何不好的事情发生。“奥特曼发表上述言论之际，人们对人工智能灾难性破坏的风险感到日益恐慌，许多行业领导者和专家认为，该技术需要设置护栏，以防止其脱离人类控制。国会面临着监管这项快速发展的技术的压力，但立法者对于人工智能行业是否需要联邦监管或者是否有能力自我管理存在分歧。主要人工智能实验室和科技公司的高管上周聚集在白宫，与唐纳德特朗普总统讨论解决方案，他认为过度监管人工智能将对国家安全产生影响。该组织最终达成了一项“具有道德约束力”的人工智能协议，批评人士称该协议不足以防止最坏情况的发生。汤普森周一指出，他相信人工智能将带来“巨大的解决方案”，特别是在寻找癌症和阿尔茨海默病等健康问题的治疗方法方面。但他也表示，人工智能必须以“原则”为导向--将其与他在一项监管加密货币行业的法案中如何处理数字资产进行比较，该法案是他担任农业委员会主席时制定的。
Altman’s comments come in the wake of increased panic over the risks of catastrophic destruction from AI, with many industry leaders and experts arguing that guardrails are needed on the technology to prevent it from spinning out of human control. Pressure is building on Congress to regulate the rapidly-advancing technology, but lawmakers are divided over whether the AI industry needs federal regulation or if it’s capable of governing itself. The executives of major AI labs and tech companies gathered at the White House last week to discuss solutions with President Donald Trump, who believes overregulating AI will have national security repercussions.
“第一个原则是‘不造成伤害’。因此，我们需要保护消费者，我认为，这意味着建立一些护栏--一些指导方针--来做到这一点，”汤普森说。他补充说，第二个原则是“促进创新”。“我认为人工智能与此有很大关系，”他补充道。“我认为如果没有RI：真正的智能，人工智能就无法发挥作用。”
The group ended upg a “morally binding” AI accord that critics say won’t do enough to prevent a worst-case scenario. Thompson noted Monday he believes that AI will bring “tremendous solutions,” specifically in regards to finding cures for health issues like cancer and Alzheimer's disease. But he also said AI has to be led with “principle” — comparing it to how he addressed digital assets in a bill to regulate the cryptocurrency industry, which he worked on as chair of the Agriculture Committee. “The first principle is ‘do no harm.’ So we need to protect consumers, and that means, I think, building some guardrails — some guidelines — to do that,” Thompson said. He added that the second principle is to “foster innovation.”“I think AI has a lot to do with that,” he added. “I don't think AI works without RI: Real Intelligence.”
