Jaron Lanier, 9月19日

“没有人工智能”

而他是人工智能发展的核心, Jaron Lanier对AI也有完全不同的看法. He doesn’t think AI is a thing in itself, but is instead a new kind of 社会 collaboration. AI as we know it today combines the expressions of real humans in new 和 useful ways. A chatbot borrows from things real people have said before 和 recombines them, for instance. This perspective opens up more useful ways to think than the usual science fiction framing, 谁认为这些节目是神秘的, 潜在的恐怖生物. Instead of using hard-to-define terms like “safety” or “fairness” to improve AI, 我们可以问谁的输入对于给定的输出是重要的. That concreteness suggests ways to spread both lines of responsibility 和 opportunity. 而不是问谁会被人工智能取代工作, we can ask who should be incentivized 和 rewarded for offering better data to go into AI programs. Lanier is also one of the few scientists working in the field who is good at explaining how the programs work to non-technical audiences.

鲁哈·本杰明，10月19日

“从人工智能到集体智慧”

从医疗保健的自动决策系统, 治安, 教育及其他, technologies have the potential to deepen discrimination while appearing neutral 和 even benevolent when compared to harmful practices of a previous era. 鲁哈·本杰明带我们走进了有偏见的机器人的世界, altruistic algorithms 和 their many entanglements 和 provides conceptual tools to decode tech predictions with historical 和 sociological insight. 说到人工智能, Benjamin shifts our focus from the dystopian 和 utopian narratives we are sold, to a sober reckoning with the way these tools are already a part of our lives. Whereas dystopias are the stuff of nightmares 和 utopias the stuff of dreams… ustopias are what we create together when we are wide awake.

斯蒂芬妮·丁金斯，11月6日

“在爱 & 数据”

“在爱 & 数据” develops a dialogue with hierarchies embedded within machine learning 和 AI architecture 和 one’s individual agency in transforming the algorithms within it. Many algorithmic technologies are rooted in methods that limit 和 cajole information from humans 和 computational assumptions. We assess ourselves using false dichotomies that force inadequate choices building a world bereft of complexity 和 nuance. 我们的系统不愿意处理看不见的东西, 未知的, 差异和变化限制了每个人的可能性. 通过智能技术——那些看起来像我们的技术, the ones that serve us 和 the ones that do neither—we have the ability to underst和 和 organize human activity with complexity 和 broadly principled care. So, 为什么这些不是我们的算法分身的目标, 助手和技术生态系统?

Often envisioned outside the realm of what is technologically possible within 人工智能, care is an essential aspect of human information 和 resource-sharing networks that aid our survival. Recognition of this idea raises questions such as how can we infuse—cooperatively, adversarially or fugitively—ecosystems we depend on as well as the people 和 institutions currently holding power with ways of being, 值, 他们对道德和知识视而不见或不理解?
