What execs and politicians are saying about slowing down AI development

高管与政客们如何看待放缓人工智能发展

Dario Amodei kicked off a flood of statements about AI safety after publishing a long essay, with Sam Altman, President Trump, and others speaking out. 在发表了一篇长文后,达里奥·阿莫代(Dario Amodei)引发了关于人工智能安全的大量讨论,萨姆·奥特曼(Sam Altman)、唐纳德·特朗普总统(President Trump)等人纷纷发表了看法。

Dario Amodei kicked off a flood of statements over the past few days about AI safety by publishing a long essay titled “We Must Pace the Frontier” detailing why AI development should be slowed down. Other AI leaders and politicians are speaking out in favor of or opposing his points, and we’ve compiled some of them here. 过去几天,达里奥·阿莫代通过发表一篇题为《我们必须放缓前沿技术发展》(We Must Pace the Frontier)的长文,详细阐述了为何应放缓人工智能的发展,从而引发了关于AI安全的大量讨论。其他AI领袖和政客们也纷纷对此表示支持或反对,我们在此整理了部分观点。

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei

Anthropic 首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代

Amodei’s Saturday morning essay outlined three steps for pacing AI development: embedded third-party evaluators that can verify if a company is adhering to safety practices and commitments and report incidents, coordination between frontier AI companies in democratic countries on standards and limits, and global coordination between democratic governments and authoritarian governments on pacing AI development “to the extent this is possible.” Amodei said Anthropic is “unilaterally committing to the first of these steps.” 阿莫代在周六上午的文章中概述了放缓AI发展的三个步骤:引入第三方评估机构,以核实公司是否遵守安全规范和承诺并报告事故;民主国家的前沿AI公司之间就标准和限制进行协调;以及民主政府与威权政府之间就放缓AI发展进行全球协调,“在可能的情况下”。阿莫代表示,Anthropic正“单方面承诺执行第一步”。

However, Amodei noted that pacing “does not mean halting model training or technical progress, ensuring companies take adequate time to align and safeguard their models, and for third party evaluators to confirm this.” 然而,阿莫代指出,放缓“并不意味着停止模型训练或技术进步,而是确保公司有足够的时间来对齐和保护其模型,并让第三方评估机构进行确认。”

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman

OpenAI 首席执行官萨姆·奥特曼

“I agree with Dario that we need to pace the frontier,” Altman said shortly after Amodei posted about his essay on X. “This has been a primary topic of discussions we’ve had at OpenAI in recent weeks.” Altman also committed to having independent evaluators at the company, calling it a “great idea.” “我同意达里奥的观点,我们需要放缓前沿技术的发展,”阿莫代在 X 上发布文章后不久,奥特曼表示,“这已成为我们 OpenAI 最近几周讨论的主要议题。”奥特曼还承诺公司将引入独立评估机构,并称这是一个“好主意”。

On Sunday, Altman said OpenAI welcomes “a federal framework that sets consistent safety requirements for frontier AI.” He added that OpenAI hopes other companies “learn from our approaches and propose their own; we think shared standards for misalignment, monitoring, and safety will lead to better outcomes.” Like Amodei, Altman also said that “When we talk about “pacing”, we do not mean “stopping”, noting that progress should be “slower than it otherwise could be.” 周日,奥特曼表示 OpenAI 欢迎“一个为前沿 AI 设定统一安全要求的联邦框架”。他补充说,OpenAI 希望其他公司“借鉴我们的方法并提出自己的方案;我们认为关于失准、监控和安全的共享标准将带来更好的结果。”与阿莫代一样,奥特曼也表示,“当我们谈论‘放缓’时,并不意味着‘停止’”,并指出进步的速度应该“比原本可能达到的速度慢一些”。

Altman also noted two ways that he thinks AI progress “could go very badly”: losing “control of the future to AI” and ending up “in a world with too much concentration of power,” which he said can be avoided by “walking a narrow middle path.” 奥特曼还指出了他认为 AI 进步“可能走向极端糟糕”的两种方式:失去“对未来的控制权,将其交给 AI”,以及最终陷入“权力过度集中的世界”。他表示,通过“走一条狭窄的中间道路”可以避免这些情况。

Google DeepMind co-founder and chair Demis Hassabis

Google DeepMind 联合创始人兼主席德米斯·哈萨比斯

“Dario’s essay points towards the right path forward,” Hassabis said in reply to Amodei’s essay. “The details need working through, but the direction is correct for meeting this critical moment.” Hassabis also pointed to a framework for an AI standards body he published in July. “达里奥的文章指出了正确的方向,”哈萨比斯在回复阿莫代的文章时说,“细节还需要进一步推敲,但这个方向对于应对这一关键时刻是正确的。”哈萨比斯还提到了他在七月份发布的一个关于 AI 标准机构的框架。

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk

SpaceX 首席执行官埃隆·马斯克

“Dario is right,” Musk said, reposting Amodei’s essay. “达里奥是对的,”马斯克在转发阿莫代的文章时说道。

US President Donald Trump

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普

In a rambling Monday morning Truth Social post, Trump pushed back on the idea of an AI slowdown: 在周一上午的一篇冗长的“真实社交”(Truth Social)帖子中,特朗普反驳了放缓 AI 发展的想法:

The only control or “guardrails” that AI needs is a STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT, and the U.S.A. has that, in spades! The Trump Administration has stopped AI “people” from doing bad, or potentially bad, “things,“ like Dario (Anthropic!), who is now pretending to be a “perfect little angel” - and we will continue to do so! We already have tremendous CRIMINAL and REGULATORY power over these companies! There is a SICK conspiracy going on against AI and Data Centers, and the only one that is happy about it is China. WHOEVER WINS AI, WINS! We are leading China, and all others, and will continue to do so. Conspiracy Theorists, Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE! Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP AI 唯一需要的控制或“护栏”就是一位强大且聪明(高智商!)的总统,而美国恰恰拥有这样的人!特朗普政府已经阻止了 AI “从业者”做坏事或潜在的坏事,比如达里奥(Anthropic!),他现在假装成一个“完美的小天使”——我们将继续这样做!我们已经对这些公司拥有巨大的刑事和监管权力!针对 AI 和数据中心存在着一场病态的阴谋,唯一为此感到高兴的是中国。谁赢得了 AI,谁就赢了!我们正在领先中国及其他所有国家,并将继续保持领先。阴谋论者、叛国者、卖国贼和泄密者,小心了!感谢你们对此事的关注!总统唐纳德·J·特朗普

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang

英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋

While taking a call from Trump onstage at an event and putting the president on speakerphone, where he said that “the robots will not be taking over,” Huang said that “We’re going to make sure that everybody wins in the AI race in America. Every industry, every company, every state, every people.” 在一次活动中,黄仁勋在台上接听了特朗普的电话并开启了免提,特朗普在电话中表示“机器人不会接管世界”。黄仁勋随后表示:“我们将确保美国的每个人都能在 AI 竞赛中获胜。每一个行业、每一家公司、每一个州、每一个人。”

US Vice President JD Vance

美国副总统 JD·万斯

Vance said that he feels it’s a “little bit weird” that frontier AI tech companies are “kind of coming to the government and begging the government to regulate them” and added that it “feels a little bit to me like a bit of a trojan horse.” He also pointed to the President saying that “we know the Chinese are engaged in this long term AI race against the United States.” 万斯表示,他觉得前沿 AI 科技公司“主动来到政府面前,恳求政府监管他们”有点“奇怪”,并补充说这“让我感觉有点像特洛伊木马”。他还引用总统的话说,“我们知道中国正在与美国进行这场长期的 AI 竞赛。”

House Speaker Mike Johnson

众议院议长迈克·约翰逊

As part of a Sunday interview with Jake Tapper on CNN, Johnson said that “I think the leaders and the providers of all these platforms… They need to come together in a meeting with us and sit down and figure out what the right balance is. We cannot put a moratorium on this because China will overlap us. And that’s the challenge. It’s national security balanced with the immediate security of making sure the models are safe.” It’s unclear if or when this meeting might actually happen, but Johnson said he would do it “tomorrow.” 在周日接受 CNN 杰克·塔珀(Jake Tapper)采访时,约翰逊表示:“我认为所有这些平台的领导者和提供商……他们需要与我们举行会议,坐下来找出正确的平衡点。我们不能对此实施暂停,因为中国会超越我们。这就是挑战所在。这是国家安全与确保模型安全的即时安全之间的平衡。”目前尚不清楚这次会议是否或何时会真正举行,但约翰逊表示他“明天”就会去做。

Senator Bernie Sanders

参议员伯尼·桑德斯

Sanders said he agrees with Wall Street Journal columnist and former Ronald Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan, who published an article titled “Pause AI for Humanity’s Sake.” 桑德斯表示,他同意《华尔街日报》专栏作家、前罗纳德·里根演讲撰稿人佩吉·努南(Peggy Noonan)的观点,后者发表了一篇题为《为了人类,暂停 AI》(Pause AI for Humanity’s Sake)的文章。

Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg

前交通部长皮特·布蒂吉格

“For Congress to just sit on its hands, for the White House to do nothing real, is something that is deeply dangerous to the American people and to the world,” Buttigieg said in an NBC News interview. “There need to be safeguards, there need to be rules, there need to be limits, there needs to be a kill switch on rogue AI.” “如果国会袖手旁观,如果白宫不采取任何实质性行动,这对美国人民和全世界来说都是极其危险的,”布蒂吉格在接受 NBC 新闻采访时说,“必须有保障措施,必须有规则,必须有限制,必须为失控的 AI 设置一个终止开关。”

Former White House AI and crypto czar David Sacks

前白宫 AI 与加密货币主管大卫·萨克斯

”Dario has written that we need to ‘pace the frontier,’ and Sam has agreed,” Sacks said in a long post on X. “People may be surprised by “达里奥写道我们需要‘放缓前沿技术发展’,萨姆也表示同意,”萨克斯在 X 上的一篇长文中写道,“人们可能会对……”
