Topics
Alex Kantrowitz: 我认为ChatGPT的崛起可能预示着互联网流量格局的根本性变化，它现在是增长最快的网站，而其他网站的流量都在下降。Grok未经请求地插入关于南非白人种族灭绝的宣传信息，这显示了这些模型存在的问题。Meta的Llama项目延迟发布，也反映了AI模型在扩展方面遇到的挑战。这些都让我开始思考，如果AI模型成为主导的信息来源，我们如何确保信息的公正性和多样性？ Ranjan Roy: 我认为我们正处于一个转折点，生成式AI正在迅速融入我们的生活，但它们从哪里获取内容将成为一个关键问题。现有的网络系统在这种模式下已经行不通，我们需要重新思考信息的经济模式。同时，我也对AI模型的系统提示表示担忧，这些隐藏的提示可能会影响人们的观点，我们需要找到一种方法来确保AI的透明度和公正性。
