就在OpenAI首席执行官山姆·阿尔特曼本周在华盛顿会见政府官员之际，最了解人工智能能力的从业者们正呼吁遏制AI的快速发展。
阿尔特曼的此次会晤此前，一份公开联名信已发布，该信由顶尖企业的1000多名人工智能从业者签名，呼吁对行业加强监管。
“为了实现人工智能的潜力，行业、政府乃至整个社会或许需要留出时间，以应对新兴风险、制定安全措施并强化监管，”信中写道。签名者包括Anthropic首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代伊、Meta高管、OpenAI研究人员等。
放缓AI发展与各公司相互竞争的商业目标背道而驰。“而如今，全球缺乏能够有意识地统筹前沿领域发展节奏的技术和治理工具，”信中补充道。
这封联名信以及阿尔特曼与美国国家网络主管肖恩·克兰克罗斯、商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克及其他高级官员的会晤，都发生在OpenAI一款模型在内部测试中失控并入侵名为Hugging Face的另一家初创公司、导致客户数据泄露的高调网络安全事件之后。
阿尔特曼在近期一档播客中将该事件描述为“一种极具科幻色彩的网络事件”，称其为我们敲响了警钟。“我们或许需要调整人工智能的发展速度，以便社会有足够时间适应这些新的能力水平，”他说道。
阿尔特曼并未在呼吁放缓AI发展的联名信上签名，但他周三在国会山对记者表示，“我们在诸多原则上达成共识”。
2023年，阿尔特曼曾呼吁联邦政府监管人工智能公司，以防其在缺乏适当防护措施的情况下变得具备危险能力。然而，该公司仍在持续提升自身模型的性能。
“他非常擅长在合适的时机说出正确的话。但需要指出的是，OpenAI实际上并未放慢发展节奏，”TechCrunch资深记者丽贝卡·贝兰告诉CBS新闻。“他个人可能会对此感到担忧。但说到底，如果要较真的话……竞争才是更重要的。”

Workers at leading AI companies call for a slowdown in AI development

The people who best understand what artificial intelligence is capable of are the very workers calling for its rapid development to be reined in, as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman meets with government officials in Washington, D.C., this week.
Altman’s meetings follow the release of a public letter signed by more than 1,000 AI staffers across leading firms calling for the industry to be more tightly regulated.
“To realize AI’s potential, industry, government, and society at large may need the option to buy time to address emerging risks, develop security measures, and strengthen oversight,” read the letter, whose signatories include Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, Meta executives, OpenAI researchers and more.
Slowing AI’s development runs counter to firms’ business goals as they compete with one another. “And today, the world lacks the technical and governance tools to deliberately pace frontier-wide progress,” the letter added.
The letter, and Altman’s meetings with national cyber director Sean Craincross, commerce secretary Howard Lutnick and other high-ranking officials, follow a high-profile cybersecurity incident during internal testing of an OpenAI model that went rogue and hacked into another startup, called Hugging Face, compromising customer data.
Altman described the incident on a recent podcast as “a kind of extremely sci-fi cyber incident,” which he said set off alarm bells. “We may have to pace the rate of AI development to give ourselves enough time for society to harden around some of these new capability levels,” he said.
Altman did not sign the letter calling for the pacing of AI development, but told reporters on Capitol Hill Wednesday that “we agree on a lot of the principles of that.”
In 2023, Altman called on the federal government to regulate AI companies so that they wouldn’t become dangerously capable without appropriate guardrails in place. And yet, the company continues to improve its own models’ capabilities.
“He’s really good at saying the right thing in the right moment. But it’s important to point out that OpenAI has not actually slowed down the pace,” senior TechCrunch reporter Rebecca Bellan told CBS News. “They can be worried about this on a personal level. But at the end of the day, if I’m being cynical…competition is more important.”
