英伟达股价周一早盘下跌5%，这一迹象表明，在这家AI芯片巨头周日披露将调查近期有关CEO黄仁勋“曾是一起外国情报行动目标”的报道后，巨大的不确定性正笼罩着该公司。令事态更加戏剧性的是，黄仁勋承认曾有一段婚外情，并表示自己“深感抱歉”。《纽约时报》上个月报道称，黄仁勋与一名中国女商人有“密切关系”，该女商人据称与北京当局共享情报。我们不知道这将走向何方。但鉴于黄仁勋作为AI最坚定倡导者之一的地位，其影响可能波及整个行业。
Shares of Nvidia were trading down 5% early Monday morning, a sign of the huge uncertainty now hanging over the AI chip giant in the wake of the company’s disclosure Sunday that it would investigate recent reporting that CEO Jensen Huang “had been the target of a foreign intelligence effort.”Adding to the drama, Huang acknowledged having had an affair, saying he was “deeply sorry.”The New York Times reported last month that Huang had a “close relationship” with a Chinese businesswoman who allegedly shared intelligence with Beijing authorities. We don’t know where this will lead. But given Huang’s position as one of AI’s biggest advocates, the ripples could be felt everywhere in the sector.
与此同时，一家澳大利亚初创公司想出了打击AI驱动网络犯罪的新办法：派出一支AI代理大军，假扮成容易上当的奶奶和毫无戒心的求职者，以此引诱不法分子上钩。
Meanwhile, an Australian startup has come up with a new way to fight AI-enabled cybercrimes: sending an army of AI agents to pose as gullible grandmas and unsuspecting job seekers so as to lure the bad guys.
Apate.ai正面对抗一个价值数十亿美元的诈骗产业，该产业由诈骗园区内的数千名工作人员支撑，这些园区大多位于东南亚。在技术帮助下，这些诈骗分子变得更加老练。调查人员一直难以跟上不断演变的诈骗手法，往往只有在受害者报告损失后才开始追查。
Apate.ai is going up against a multibillion-dollar scam industry powered by thousands of workers in scam compounds, mostly in Southeast Asia. These scammers have gotten more sophisticated with the help of technology. Investigators have struggled to keep pace with ever-evolving tactics, and often only begin the chase after victims report their losses.
成立于2024年的Apate.ai认为，它找到了帮助扭转局面的办法。通过假扮潜在受害者，其AI代理大军能够与诈骗分子进行长时间对话，部分目的是浪费对方时间，并把注意力从真正的受害者身上引开。
Apate.ai, founded in 2024, thinks it’s found a way to help tip the scales. By posing as potential victims, its army of AI agents are able to engage scammers in lengthy conversations designed partly to waste time and divert attention from real victims.
