Reid Hoffman: 商业领袖应认识到企业并非孤立存在,而是嵌入客户、员工、投资者和社会网络中。领导者对这些网络负有责任,应关注社会稳定、团结和真相。在维护社会稳定和真相时,不应被误认为是党派偏见。商业领袖是社会的重要领导者,他们有责任阐明对企业健康有利的事物,这不仅仅局限于税收等单一因素。预测未来需要思考事物变化的方式以及这些变化带来的后果,并咨询网络中的其他人。AI并非会摧毁工作,而是一种有用的工具。预测未来需要关注技术、资本、竞争、劳动力、法规和社会因素等多种趋势。AI提高生产力不会导致裁员,而是会改变工作性质,需要员工进行技能提升和公司进行人员调整。未来,人机交互界面将更加自然,更依赖于语言,AI将能够理解更自然的语言输入,并执行更复杂的指令。未来,设备的接口将完全基于语言,人们将能够用自然语言与AI进行交互,并执行各种任务。AI数字分身技术既有积极也有消极方面,积极方面在于它可以扩展沟通能力,消极方面在于它可能被用于恶意目的。AI将改变创业环境,在微观层面,创业者将使用AI工具提高效率;宏观层面,AI将创造新的市场和产品服务。AI已经展现出超越人类能力的潜力,但它也会复制人类的偏见。成功的技术人文主义社会应该利用技术来增强人类的智慧、同情心等优秀品质。可以通过改进提示词的方式来提高AI生成内容的创造性和独特性。 Adi Ignatius: 提出了关于如何更好地预测未来趋势、AI对就业的影响、人机融合的未来以及AI对创业环境影响等问题,引导Reid Hoffman进行深入探讨。
