Berber Jin: 我报道了马斯克和奥特曼之间关系破裂的始末,从最初的合作到如今的激烈对抗。马斯克对奥特曼与特朗普合作感到愤怒,并质疑Stargate计划的可行性。他随后对OpenAI发起了974亿美元的收购要约,试图阻止OpenAI的营利性转型,并影响其估值。这反映了两人之间持续的权力斗争和对人工智能领域主导地位的竞争。 我深入研究了两人关系的演变,从最初的友谊和商业伙伴关系,到OpenAI内部的权力斗争,最终导致马斯克的离开。奥特曼在权力斗争中胜出,成为OpenAI的CEO。 马斯克随后创立了XAI公司,试图与OpenAI竞争,但目前XAI的影响力仍然有限。奥特曼则通过与孙正义和拉里·埃里森合作,成功地与特朗普政府建立了联系,并推进了Stargate计划。 这场争斗不仅关乎商业利益,更关乎人工智能行业的未来发展和政治影响力。两人都在争夺人工智能领域的领导地位和对人工智能技术的控制权,这将对人工智能行业的未来发展产生深远的影响。 Charlotte Gartenberg: 本期节目探讨了马斯克和奥特曼之间复杂的关系,以及这场争斗对人工智能行业和政治格局的影响。从最初的合作到如今的激烈对抗,他们的关系演变揭示了科技行业中权力斗争的残酷现实。 Elon Musk: 奥特曼与特朗普的合作让我感到愤怒,Stargate计划缺乏可行性,OpenAI的估值过高。我试图通过收购要约来维护OpenAI的非营利性质,并保护其免受不当商业利益的影响。 Sam Altman: 我与特朗普政府的合作是基于Stargate计划的长期战略规划,旨在推动人工智能技术的发展。我与马斯克的争斗是关于人工智能未来发展方向的理念之争,我致力于将OpenAI发展成为一家领先的人工智能公司,造福人类。
