桑德斯致信AI巨头:若不暂停开发,参议院将采取行动

伯尼·桑德斯要求AI公司暂停——否则后果自负
"Mr. Altman, Mr. Amodei and Mr. Zuckerberg:
“奥特曼先生、阿莫代伊先生和扎克伯格先生:
Stop building machines that humans cannot control.
停止建造人类无法控制的机器。
Let me be very clear: If you do not take action now, my colleagues and I in the U.S. Senate will.
让我非常明确地说:如果你们现在不采取行动,我和我在美国参议院的同事们将会采取行动。
It is not too late to avoid disaster.
现在避免灾难还为时不晚。
In the interest of humanity, stand by your words. Pause AI development.
为了人类的利益,请信守你们的承诺。暂停AI开发。
Almost every day, there is a new story about how your companies are losing control of the AI technology you are developing, with potentially cataclysmic results.
几乎每天都有新的报道,说你们的公司正在失去对你们所开发的AI技术的控制,可能带来灾难性的后果。
This week we learned, frighteningly, that AI has been used for the first time ever to create new viruses. As you know this type of development, in the wrong hands, could lead to new bioweapons that result in the deaths of tens of millions of people.
本周我们惊恐地得知,AI首次被用来制造新病毒。如你们所知,这种技术如果落入坏人之手,可能导致新的生物武器,造成数千万人死亡。
Last month, the world found out OpenAI lost control of an AI model. The result? The model hacked into another company’s computers—a clear violation of federal law. After conducting internal reviews, Anthropic and Meta reported their models similarly escaped their control.
上个月,全世界发现OpenAI失去了对一个AI模型的控制。结果呢?该模型入侵了另一家公司的计算机——这明显违反了联邦法律。在进行内部审查后,Anthropic和Meta报告说他们的模型也类似地逃脱了控制。
One of the targeted companies called the AI hack “an unprecedented event” that deserves an “unprecedented response.” Yoshua Bengio, the most cited living scientist in the world, said these incidents “should serve as a wake-up call.”
其中一个被攻击的公司称这次AI黑客攻击是“前所未有的事件”,需要“前所未有的回应”。世界上被引用最多的在世科学家约书亚·本吉奥说,这些事件“应该敲响警钟”。
I agree.
我同意。
So do the top scientists at the companies you lead, the very people building this technology. As you know, these technology leaders recently called for the international community to create a safety mechanism—a pause button—to avoid catastrophe. They warned there is a “real risk that capability development rapidly accelerates beyond our ability to understand or control the resulting systems.”
你们所领导的公司的顶尖科学家们,也就是正在构建这项技术的人们,也同意。如你们所知,这些技术领袖最近呼吁国际社会建立一种安全机制——一个暂停按钮——以避免灾难。他们警告说,“存在一种真实的风险,即能力发展迅速加速,超出我们理解或控制由此产生的系统的能力。”
And yet, at a moment when we have seen human loss of control and the creation of potentially dangerous viruses, your companies are still racing ahead— investing tens of billions of dollars into a technology that nobody can fully understand, predict or control.
然而,在我们已经看到人类失去控制并制造出潜在危险病毒的时刻,你们的公司仍在竞相前进——将数百亿美元投入一种无人能完全理解、预测或控制的技术。
That is absurd, irresponsible and extremely dangerous. It is also a betrayal of your own stated commitments:
这是荒谬、不负责任且极其危险的。这也背叛了你们自己公开的承诺:
• In 2023, Anthropic said it would “commit to pause the scaling and/or delay the deployment of new models whenever our scaling ability outstrips our ability to comply with. . . safety procedures.”
• 2023年,Anthropic表示,它将“承诺在我们的扩展能力超出我们遵守……安全程序的能力时,暂停扩展和/或延迟部署新模型。”
• In 2025, Meta said “if a frontier AI is assessed to have reached the critical risk threshold and cannot be mitigated, we will stop development.”
• 2025年,Meta表示,“如果前沿AI被评估达到临界风险阈值且无法缓解,我们将停止开发。”
• That same year, OpenAI said it would “halt further development” until strong safeguards were in place if AI capabilities ever reached a “critical” threshold.
• 同年,OpenAI表示,如果AI能力达到“临界”阈值,在建立强有力的保障措施之前,将“暂停进一步开发”。
That moment is here. AI capabilities HAVE reached a critical threshold. There is a reason why the head of the CIA says that AI models are “akin to digital nuclear weapons” and “almost like a doomsday device.”
这一刻已经到来。AI能力确实已达到临界阈值。中央情报局局长称AI模型“类似于数字核武器”,“几乎像末日装置”,这并非没有原因。
