达里奥·阿莫代,Anthropic 公司的 CEO,经常谈论强大 AI 的风险,但这并不意味着他是悲观主义者。他认为大多数人低估了 AI 的积极潜力,正如他们低估了风险一样。
1https://allpoetry.com/All-Watched-Over-By-Machines-Of-Loving-Grace How AI Could Transform the World for the Better I think and talk a lot about the risks of powerful AI. The company I’m the CEO of, Anthropic, does a lot of research on how to reduce these risks. Because of this, people sometimes draw the conclusion that I’m a pessimist or “doomer” who thinks AI will be mostly bad or dangerous. I don’t think that at all. In fact, one of my main reasons for focusing on risks is that they’re the only thing standing between us and what I see as a fundamentally positive future. I think that most people are underestimating just how radical the upside of AI could be, just as I think most people are underestimating how bad the risks could be.
