TED演讲:如何赋予AI力量而不是被它压倒(9)

（单词翻译）

So, how about having our cake and eating it...

所以，为什么不干脆坐享其成...

with AGI that's not enslaved but treats us well because its values are aligned¹ with ours?

使用非奴役的AGI，因为价值观和我们一致，愿意和我们并肩作战的AGI？

This is the gist² of what Eliezer Yudkowsky has called "friendly AI," and if we can do this, it could be awesome³.

尤多科斯基所谓的“友善的人工智能”就是如此，若我们能做到这点，那简直太棒了。

It could not only eliminate negative experiences like disease, poverty, crime and other suffering,

它或许不会解决负面的影响，如疾病，贫穷，犯罪或是其它，

but it could also give us the freedom to choose from a fantastic new diversity of positive experiences

但是它会给予我们自由，让我们从那些正面的境遇中去选择，

basically making us the masters of our own destiny.

让我们成为自己命运的主人。

So in summary, our situation with technology is complicated, but the big picture is rather simple.

总的来说，在科技上，我们的现状很复杂，但是若从大局来看，又很简单。

Most AI researchers expect AGI within decades, and if we just bumble into this unprepared,

多数人工智能的研究者认为AGI能在未来十年内实现，如果我们没有事先准备好去面对它们，

it will probably be the biggest mistake in human history -- let's face it.

就可能成为人类历史上最大的一个错误--我们要面对现实。

It could enable brutal⁴, global dictatorship with unprecedented⁵ inequality,

它可能导致残酷的全球独裁主义变成现实，

surveillance and suffering, and maybe even human extinction⁶.

造成前所未有的不平等监控和苦难，或许甚至导致人类灭绝。

But if we steer⁷ carefully, we could end up in a fantastic future where everybody's better off:

但是如果我们能小心操控，我们可能会有个美好的未来，人人都会受益的未来，

the poor are richer, the rich are richer, everybody is healthy and free to live out their dreams.

穷人变得富有，富人变得更富有，每个人都是健康的，能自由地去实现他们的梦想。
