科技行业领袖于周一警告称,全球可能对人工智能的潜力过于兴奋,却忽视了其不成熟性,他们认为网络安全是比人工智能发展过快更紧迫的近期问题。
The world may be overexcited by the potential of artificial intelligence and overlooking its immaturity, tech leaders warned on Monday, arguing that cybersecurity is a bigger near-term issue than AI developing too quickly.
TikTok首席执行官周受资在新加坡的一次活动上强调了人类在许多创意工作领域仍优于人工智能的优势。他表示,人类在视觉识别的细微差别和长期记忆检索方面仍然做得更好。在同城举行的另一场活动中,微软公司高管尤德森·阿尔托夫表达了类似的观点,敦促采取清醒的态度。
TikTok Chief Executive Officer Shou Chew stressed the advantage that humans continue to have over AI in many areas of creative work at an event in Singapore. The nuances of visual recognition and long-term memory retrieval are still better done by people, he said. At a separate event in the city, Microsoft Corp. executive Judson Althoff expressed a similar sentiment urging a sober approach.
两人都呼应了领先科技公司语气上的转变,这些公司最近一直在试图压低对人工智能近期益处和威胁的过高预期。此前,它们已经在人工智能开发和基础设施上投资了数千亿美元。
Both added to a shift in tone from leading tech companies, which have recently sought to tamp down expectations for the imminent benefits and threats of AI. That’s after they’ve invested hundreds of billions of dollars into AI development and infrastructure.
周受资在星展银行组织的一个会议上表示:“一方面,我认为这项技术还没有完全到位。我们的大脑能够做的事情,模型仍然做不到。”各大公司现在正试图在积极推广采用和销售人工智能产品之间取得平衡,同时又不会因这种变革性技术的潜在隐患而吓退客户和公众。
“On the one hand, I think the technology is not there yet,” Chew said at a conference organized by DBS Bank. “Our brain can do things that the model still cannot.”Companies are now seeking to strike a balance between evangelizing adoption and selling AI products without scaring off customers and the public with the potential pitfalls of such transformative technology.
微软商业业务负责人阿尔托夫在该公司位于城另一端的活动上表示:“我想把炒作与它的现实区分开来。没有任何途径能让这种无限认知计算能力的观念取代人类的目的。”
“I want to separate the hype from the reality of it,” Althoff, the head of Microsoft’s commercial business, said at the company’s event across town. “There’s no path where somehow this notion of infinite cognitive compute capability replaces human purpose.”
阿尔托夫敦促行业达到人们对上门服务的管道工或零工所给予的同等信任水平。他呼应了Anthropic PBC和OpenAI领导人最近几周的言论——两人都曾与其他高管一起出席了由美国总统唐纳德·特朗普组织的人工智能安全会议——并补充说:“在组织的每一个层面以及技术栈的每一个层面实现可视性,是极其关键的。”管理着全球最具影响力社交网络之一的TikTok的周受资则强调,需要更好地理解人工智能的网络安全风险,他表示,随着各公司竞相采用这项技术,这些风险在短期内是“相当真实的”。
Althoff urged the industry to aim for the same level of trust that people extend to a plumber or a handyman visiting their home. Echoing remarks from the leaders of Anthropic PBC and OpenAI in recent weeks — who both attended a meeting on AI safety with other top executives organized by US President Donald Trump — he added that “observability at every layer of the organization, and every layer of the stack, is super critical.”TikTok’s Chew, who oversees one of the world’s most influential social networks, put the emphasis on better understanding the cybersecurity risks of AI, which he said are “quite real” in the short run as companies race to adopt the technology.
