DeepMind 共同創辦人警告 AI 能力不得超前安全管控，FT 報導

路透 9 月 16 日電——英國《金融時報》週三報導，Google DeepMind 共同創辦人夏恩・萊格（Shane Legg）警告，快速進展的 AI 不得超前安全管控；他同時成立一間研究院，探索通用人工智慧（AGI）的部署。Sept 16 (Reuters) - Google DeepMind co-founder Shane Legg warned that rapidly advancing AI must not outpace safety controls, as he launched an institute to explore the deployment of artificial general intelligence (AGI), the Financial Times reported on Wednesday.

AI 公司對遞迴式自我改進提出警告之際，研究人員指出，能力日益增強的 AI 代理人已能撰寫軟體、執行自主任務，並協助開發 AI 系統。這引發外界憂慮，擔心這項技術的進展速度可能超過監測與控制它的防護措施。AI companies' warnings about recursive self-improvement come as researchers report that increasingly capable AI agents can write software, perform autonomous tasks and assist in developing AI systems. This raises concerns that the technology could advance faster than safeguards to monitor and control it.

• 報導指出，萊格表示，Anthropic 執行長達里歐・阿莫迪（Dario Amodei）呼籲放慢但不要暫停發布前沿模型，這在方向上「很有意思」，也「值得考慮」。• Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's call to slow but not pause the release of frontier models was "interesting directionally" and "worth considering," Legg said, according to the report.

• 《金融時報》報導，儘管輝達（Nvidia）和 OpenAI 高層近來聲稱 AGI 已經實現，但萊格表示，現在宣布 AGI 已達成仍為時過早。• He said it was premature to declare that AGI had been achieved, despite recent claims by executives at Nvidia and OpenAI, the FT reported.

• 報導稱，萊格仍然「認同」自己的預測，也就是到 2028 年實現「最低限度」AGI 的機率為 50%。• Legg remains "comfortable" with his forecast of a 50% chance of achieving "minimal" AGI by 2028, the report said.

• 報導補充說，DeepMind 研究院（DeepMind Institute）旨在擴大公眾對 AGI 的討論；Google DeepMind 將 AGI 定義為具有人腦認知能力的系統。• The DeepMind Institute aims to broaden public discussion of AGI, which Google DeepMind defines as a system with the cognitive capabilities of the human brain, the report added.

• 《金融時報》指出，該研究院將涵蓋科學、教育、社會、政策、哲學和人類繁榮等議題。• The institute will cover topics including science, education, society, policy, philosophy and human flourishing, according to the FT.

• 報導稱，該研究院首批三篇文章探討 AI 安全、經濟政策，以及「新烏托邦主義」的原則。• Its first three essays address AI safety, economic policy and principles for a "new utopianism," the report said.
