Topics
旁白: 本节目探讨了人工智能领域的炒作与现实,以及人们对人工智能未来发展的不同观点,乐观者认为人工智能将解决重大全球问题,带来繁荣;悲观者则担忧超级人工智能可能威胁人类文明。 Bilal Velsadu: 采访了Gary Marcus,探讨了当前AI技术,特别是大型语言模型的局限性,以及公众对AI能力的误解。节目中,通过一个简单的例子(ChatGPT解决渡河问题)说明当前AI技术的能力局限性,质疑其被夸大的宣传。 Gary Marcus: 认为当前的AI技术,特别是大型语言模型,距离真正的智能还有很大差距,大型语言模型擅长模仿,但这种模仿会造成理解的错觉,容易产生“幻觉”,缺乏事实核查能力。他认为增加数据和计算能力并不能解决AI模型的泛化能力问题,神经符号AI是未来AI发展的一个重要方向,需要对AI模型的数据使用进行规范,保障创作者的权益,并呼吁公众对AI技术保持谨慎态度,避免过度乐观或悲观。 Bilal Velsadu: 对AI持谨慎乐观态度,认为AI是强大的工具,但需警惕AI能力与公众认知之间的差距,区分AI的“思考”与人类的“思考”,避免过度依赖AI。
