美国战争部的一位高级官员谈到了人工智能在提升战争准备能力方面所发挥的作用，并指出外国对手正在实施心理战，试图在美国国内煽动反数据中心、反人工智能的情绪。
A top official at the Department of War discussed how artificial intelligence is playing a role in war readiness strategy, and said foreign adversaries are carrying out "psyop" operations to fuel the anti-data center and anti-artificial intelligence movement across the U.S.
在白宫接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时，负责研究与工程的战争部副部长埃米尔·迈克尔警告称，那些试图减少人工智能基础设施生产的呼声背后，实则有美国对手势力的推动。
During an interview with Fox News Digital in the White House, Under Secretary of War for Research and Engineering Emil Michael warned that the movement to decrease production for artificial intelligence infrastructure is being pushed by America’s adversaries.
“从宣传角度来看，那些不希望美国率先开发出超级智能的对手，自然会试图通过心理战手段让民众产生这种认知。在某种程度上，这一策略确实奏效了。我认为正因如此，总统才会出面反驳并强调‘发展人工智能是一件好事’。”他这样说道。
"It is natural from a propaganda standpoint that your adversary, who doesn't want you to be developing super intelligence ahead of them, is going to try to psyop your population into believing that. And to some degree, it's worked. And I think that's why you see the president push back and say, ‘no, this is a good thing,’" he said.
得克萨斯州共和党参议员泰德·克鲁兹称，在人工智能领域战胜中国是美国“最为重要的经济议题”。在中期选举前夕，数据中心建设问题引发了广泛讨论，议员们对此也基本持一致立场，支持相关建设工作的继续推进。迈克尔将数据中心称作“推动超级智能革命的动力源泉”，强调持续建设此类设施对于确保美国在人工智能领域保持领先地位至关重要。
CRUZ SAYS WINNING AI RACE AGAINST CHINA IS 'SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT ECONOMIC QUESTION' FOR AMERICA Data center production has been at the center of debate ahead of the midterm elections, with lawmakers taking near-partisan stances as to whether developments should continue. Michael referred to data centers as the "electricity that fuels the superintelligence revolution," and explained that continued production of facilities are a crucial part of ensuring the U.S. maintains the lead in the artificial intelligence race.
目前，全美各地都出现了反对数据中心建设及人工智能发展的抗议活动，一些议员也开始质疑这些抗议活动背后是否存在外国势力的干预。
Protests have popped up across the country against data centers and artificial intelligence advancements in general, with some lawmakers raising questions about the role that foreign influence plays in the demonstrations.
“这与中东国家出资支持反水力压裂运动的原因如出一辙，”克鲁兹上个月在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时说道，“如果这些国家能说服美国民众‘不要自行开发石油天然气，直接从我们这里购买’，那对他们而言固然有利，但对美国而言却是灾难。”
DATA CENTERS COULD BE THE SLEEPER ISSUE OF THE 2026 MIDTERM ELECTIONS "It's the same reason we saw Middle Eastern countries paying for anti-fracking movements," Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, told Fox News Digital in an interview last month. "Because if they can convince America, 'Don't develop your oil and gas, just buy it from us,' well, that's great for them and terrible for us.
在数据中心领域也是如此。如果中国能够说服美国人“你们并不希望在本国建设数据中心，还是把人工智能相关事务交给中国来处理为好”，这对中国而言固然有利，但对美国而言则是灾难。美国议员称：中国在人工智能与数据中心领域的竞争中“火上浇油”。迈克尔也表达了与克鲁兹类似的担忧，即外国势力可能施加影响，不过他并未直接点名中国为幕后推手。
"The same is true on data centers. If they can convince Americans, 'You don't want data centers here, you want to just rely on the Chinese for AI,' that's great for China, and it's terrible for America." CHINA ‘THROWING GASOLINE ON THE FIRE’ IN AI DATA CENTERS RACE, SAY LAWMAKERS Michael echoed some of Cruz’s concerns about foreign influence, though he did not specifically name China as the culprit.
美国议员们对美国籍共产主义科技大亨内维尔·罗伊·辛格姆向多家非营利组织及团体投入数亿美元资金一事提出质疑。这些组织如今正是全美范围内极力反对建设数据中心的主力军。接受辛格姆资助的团体包括“社会主义解放党”与“ANSWER联盟”，这两个组织均自称是亲中国的共产主义团体。
Lawmakers have raised questions about hundreds of millions of dollars that American-born communist tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham pumped into nonprofits and organizations that are now among the leading organizations fighting data center development throughout the country. Recipients of Singham's largesse include the Party for Socialism and Liberation and the ANSWER Coalition, both self-described pro-China communist groups.
上个月，这两个组织的活动人士在北卡罗来纳州教堂山举行的抗议活动中举着标语牌，将反特朗普情绪与对古巴共产党的支持、对数据中心及人工智能发展的反对态度结合在一起，还喊出了“叫停一切！”的口号。现年72岁的辛格姆于2017年以7.85亿美元的价格出售了自己的科技公司，如今定居上海。据福克斯新闻数字频道的调查，他自2017年起已向遍布全美的亲中国共产党团体网络投入了2.78亿美元资金。
HOUSE PANEL TO PROBE FOREIGN ‘TROJAN HORSES’ AS SINGHAM SCRUTINY WIDENS Last month, activists from both groups carried signs in a Chapel Hill, N.C., protest, merging anti-Trump sentiments with support for communist Cuba and opposition to data centers and AI development, including the message, "SHUT IT DOWN!" Singham, a 72-year-old American who sold his tech company for $785 million in 2017 and now lives in Shanghai, is known to fund pro-Chinese Communist Party groups that operate in the U.S. He has funneled $278 million into the broad network of nonprofits since 2017, according to a Fox News Digital investigation.
随着外界对外国势力干预的担忧日益加剧，一个马克思主义组织正牵头发起反对在弗吉尼亚州建设人工智能数据中心的运动。“社会主义解放党波士顿分部”是一家注册为501(c)(3)性质的非营利组织，其全国分支机构经常与辛格姆资助的网络展开合作并提供支持。该组织今年7月在社交媒体上公开发表反对建设数据中心的观点，称人工智能与数据中心的控制权如今掌握在亿万富翁手中。
MARXIST ORGANIZER LEADS CAMPAIGN AGAINST VIRGINIA AI DATA CENTER AS FOREIGN INFLUENCE CONCERNS MOUNT The Party for Socialism and Liberation Boston, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose national chapter regularly partners with and supports the Singham network, posted to social media in July openly opposing data centers, saying the control of AI and data centers is in the hands of billionaires.
“如今，一场反对科技界亿万富翁的运动正在全国范围内兴起：从数百个城市中反对建设数据中心的抗议活动，到全球各大科技企业内部的劳工组织工作，”帖文中写道。
"Workers are rising up across the country in a growing movement against the tech billionaires – from fights against data centers in hundreds of cities, to labor organizing at the world’s biggest tech corporations," the post read.
至于国防部如何运用人工智能，迈克尔向福克斯新闻数字频道透露，自皮特·赫格塞特部长上任以来，该技术的使用率呈爆发式增长——原本在350万名员工中仅有约7万名用户，如今这一数字已升至约170万。
As for how the Department of War utilizes artificial intelligence, Michael told Fox News Digital that usage has skyrocketed since Secretary Pete Hegseth assumed the cabinet role, growing from roughly 70,000 users out of a 3.5 million-person workforce to approximately 1.7 million today.
他解释称，国防部正将人工智能应用于三大核心领域：日常行政运作、作战指挥以及情报工作。
He explained that the Department of War is deploying artificial intelligence across three main areas: enterprise operations, warfighting and intelligence.
“我们有大量实例可以证明人工智能的成效：原本需要200小时才能完成的工作，现在仅需两小时就能搞定，”他补充道。“借助人工智能，工作人员能够清晰掌握我方及敌方的各类资源情况，从而更精准地安排行动时机、提升文书撰写效率，还能迅速整合各项指令。”
"We have incredible vignettes and stories about how people took 200 hours of work and combined it down to two hours," he added. "They can see what we have as assets. They can see what the adversary has as assets – they can time things better, they write quicker, they can consolidate orders quicker."
