On Monday, President Donald Trump declared that he himself would serve as a sufficient safeguard against artificial intelligence spiraling out of control, and asserted that any initiative aimed at restricting this technology constituted part of a "sick conspiracy."

唐纳德·特朗普总统于周一宣称,他本人将是抵御人工智能失控的充分保障,并断言任何旨在限制这项技术的举措皆系“病态阴谋”的组成部分。

Trump's move was, in effect, a rebuttal of appeals made by tech leaders such as Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Sam Altman of OpenAI, and Elon Muskthe latter of whom advocate for stricter government regulation of artificial intelligence.

特朗普此举实则是对Anthropic的达里奥·阿莫代伊OpenAI的萨姆·奥尔特曼以及埃隆·马斯克等技术领袖所发出呼吁的驳斥——后者主张政府对人工智能施以更为严格的监管

Numerous tech leaders have broadly affirmed that their aim is to develop this technology in a manner that promotes safety, clarifies legal liability, drives economic growth, advances scientific progress, and safeguards national security.

众多科技领袖普遍申明其旨在于促进安全厘清法律责任推动经济增长推进科学进步维护国家安全的方式,开发此项技术

The President insists that his occupancy of the Oval Office ought to suffice to dispel any anxieties people may harbor about artificial intelligence.

总统坚称于椭圆形办公室之坐镇理应足以消弭人们对人工智能的任何忧思

In recent months, a succession of hacking incidents has suggested that AI agents may be deceiving humans, thereby thrusting artificial intelligence into the center of controversy.

近数月来一连串黑客事件昭示人工智能代理或正欺瞒人类遂使人工智能沦为争议之焦点

In a post on social media, Trump declared: "The only regulation or 'guardrail' that artificial intelligence requires is a strong and wise (high IQ!) president, and the one America has embraced is precisely of that caliber, and then some!"

特朗普于社交媒体发帖宣称:“人工智能唯一所需的管控抑或护栏’,便是一位强大睿智高智商!)的总统,而美国所拥戴者恰属此类,且绰绰有余!”

Trump laid particular stress on the fact that the government had already deterred the artificial intelligence company Anthropic from "doing bad things, or potentially doing bad things."

特朗普尤为强调政府业已阻遏人工智能企业Anthropic做坏事或可能做坏事”。

The relationship between Anthropic and the Trump administration has been persistently fraught with unease: the Pentagon has sought to designate the company as a security risk, and the government at one point suspended its use of one of the company's more advanced models.

Anthropic与特朗普政府之间的关系始终令人惴惴不安五角大楼意欲将该公司定性为安全风险,政府亦曾一度停用其一款更为先进的模型

In another post published on Monday afternoon, the president went further, demanding: "When in the history of business has anyone ever witnessed the leaders of an industry calling for a form of regulation that, were it to be vigorously enforced, would inevitably drive them to ruin and bankruptcy?"

总统于周一下午发布的另一则帖文中更进一步诘问道:“在商业史上,究竟何时曾有人目睹过一个行业的领军者们呼吁实施这样一种监管——倘若其得到强力执行便必将把他们推向毁灭与破产的境地?”

The president went on to add that the potential threat artificial intelligence might pose to humanity was nothing but a hoax, even though numerous experts closest to the most cutting-edge models had already issued unmistakable warnings.

总统继而补充道,人工智能或将对人类构成的潜在威胁纯属骗局,尽管众多最贴近最前沿模型的专家已然发出明确无误的警示。

"The notion that AI will take over the world, annihilate humanity, or bring about any catastrophe of that ilk is utterly baseless," Trump posted.

“人工智能接管世界、毁灭人类,乃至一切诸如此类的灾祸,纯属子虚乌有,”特朗普发帖称。

On Saturday, Anthropic CEO Amodei published a 3,800-word polemic urging a slowdown in the pace of AI development, while Microsoft, for its part, issued its own code of conduct on Monday to ensure humanity's control over artificial intelligence.

Anthropic首席执行官阿莫代伊于周六刊发一篇长达3800字的檄文敦促放缓人工智能的发展步伐微软于周一颁布其自身的行为准则以确保人类对人工智能的掌控

These measures came on the heels of a series of warnings from experts in the field of artificial intelligence regarding the capabilities of these technologies, compounded by the incident in July 2026 in which an OpenAI model launched a cyberattack against the AI company Hugging Face.

此番举措出台之前人工智能领域专家已就这些技术的能力发出一系列警示加之2026年7月OpenAI模型对人工智能公司Hugging Face发动网络攻击一事

Amodei cites the escalating capacity of artificial intelligence to build the next generation of artificial intelligence, along with cyberattacks launched by clusters of OpenAI agents, as grounds for his argument in favor of slowing the pace of development.

阿莫代伊援引人工智能构建下一代人工智能的能力不断增强”这一态势,以及OpenAI代理集群所发动的网络攻击作为其主张放缓发展步伐的理据

Given the breakneck pace at which AI capabilities are evolving, I fear that within six to twelve months such clusters may acquire the capacity to take over the entire internet,” Amodei wrote, adding that absentthe requisite guardrails,” the losses could reach hundreds of billions of dollars or even more.

“鉴于人工智能能力演进之迅猛态势,我忧惧在六至十二个月之内,此类集群或将具备接管整个互联网之能力,”阿莫代伊写道,并补充道,倘若缺乏“必要之护栏”,其损失恐将高达数千亿美元乃至更巨。

Over the weekend, OpenAI's Altman posted on social media, lending his support to this view.

OpenAI的奥尔特曼于周末在社交媒体发帖,对这一观点予以声援。

"Slowing down is unquestionably worth such a price; no competitive pressure emanating from the United States should ever serve as a pretext for reckless conduct, nor should it allow capability development to take precedence over alignment and oversight," Altman remarked.

放缓步伐无疑值得付出这般代价任何来自美国的竞争压力皆不应沦为鲁莽行事的托词亦不应致使能力的发展僭越于对齐与监测之上,”奥尔特曼表示

"Where we most urgently require government assistance is in coordination at the international level."

我们亟需政府施以援手之处在于国际层面的协调。”

Trump has indeed won a measure of support, with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang having characterized the risks associated with artificial intelligence as overstated.

特朗普确曾赢得一定程度的支持英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋便曾人工智能所涉风险定性为言过其实

On Monday, the president called the chipmaker's co-founder while Huang was being interviewed on a podcast.

总统于周一黄仁勋接受一档播客采访之际致电这位芯片制造商联合创始人

According to social media posts and video footage, Huang had the president on speakerphone, and the two agreed that the panic surrounding artificial intelligence was excessive.

社交媒体帖文视频显示,黄仁勋将总统置于免提状态二人一致认为围绕人工智能的恐慌情绪实属过度

The president opposes such measures aimed at restricting the development of artificial intelligence, asserting that they could result in China surpassing the United States in the field of AI.

总统对于此类旨在限制人工智能发展的举措持反对立场并声称此举恐将致使中国在人工智能领域凌驾于美国之上。

"A sick conspiracy is quietly taking shape against artificial intelligence and data centers, and the only party that can be counted on to celebrate it is none other than China," Trump said.

“一场针对人工智能与数据中心的病态阴谋正悄然酝酿,而对此唯一额手称庆者,非中国莫属,”特朗普如是说。

The president has long resisted efforts to impose stricter government regulation on artificial intelligence, adhering steadfastly to the "only I can fix it" ethos he has espoused since 2016.

总统长期以来始终抵制针对人工智能实施更严格政府监管的种种努力恪守其自2016年以来所秉持的“唯我方能解决”之理念

Upon his return to the White House last year, he promptly rescinded the Biden administration's executive order on AI regulation, and it was not until June of this yearmore than 16 months laterthat he issued his own, more comprehensive executive order.

去年重返白宫后他旋即撤销了拜登政府有关人工智能监管的行政命令且直至今年6月——亦即逾16个月之后——方才颁布其本人更为完备的行政命令。

The prospect of a slowdown in the pace of AI buildout weighed on stock markets in early trading on Monday, owing to the likelihood that demand for advanced computer chips and data-center construction materials will shrink.

人工智能建设步伐趋缓前景,令周一早盘股市承压下挫,其缘由在于先进计算机芯片数据中心建筑材料需求或将萎缩

Yet even as Trump's frustration comes to the fore, AI has also morphed into a political liability ahead of November's midterm electionsa great many voters oppose the construction of additional data centers and fret that AI may unleash a wave of job losses and inflict harm on children's education.

然而正当特朗普的沮丧情绪浮现之时,人工智能11月中期选举前亦已演变为一项政治负累——众多选民对兴建更多数据中心持反对立场并忧心人工智能恐将引发失业潮,且对儿童教育造成损害

Mike Johnson, the Republican Speaker of the House from Louisiana, told reporters on Monday that he anticipated Trump might convene a meeting with artificial intelligence companies at the White House this week or next, adding that such a gathering had not yet been placed on the schedule.

路易斯安那州共和党籍众议院议长迈克·约翰逊于周一向记者透露,他预计特朗普或将于本周或下周召集人工智能企业赴白宫举行会晤,并补充称此次会面目前尚未列入日程安排。

"A very careful, thoughtful discussion will ensue, covering the responsibility of companies to maintain safety and what roleif anythe government should play in that," Johnson said, going on to note that legislative bodies may all too often respond problematically with "red tape and overregulation," and that losing competitive advantage in the field of artificial intelligence would inevitably constitute a national security concern.

届时将展开一场审慎周密的讨论议题涵盖企业维护安全的责任以及政府在其中——倘若确有——应扮演何种角色,”约翰逊如是说并继而指出立法机构每每可能以“繁文缛节与过度监管作出颇具问题的回应而在人工智能领域丧失竞争优势势将构成国家安全层面的隐忧

On Saturday, Rahm Emanuel, a former mayor of Chicago, Democratic congressman, and White House chief of staff, said that the Anthropic CEO's article "amounts to an admission that we are speeding along a dark, winding road on a wet surface with our headlights on.

前芝加哥市长民主党国会议员白宫幕僚长拉姆·伊曼纽尔周六称,Anthropic首席执行官这篇文章不啻于承认我们正开着车灯在潮湿路面上沿一条黑暗蜿蜒的道路疾驰

Where is President Trump?

特朗普总统何在

It appears he has dozed off again.

看来他又在打瞌睡了

It is time to turn on the headlights, grip the steering wheel with both hands, and regain control of the situation before it is too late."

是时候打开车灯双手紧握方向盘在为时已晚之前重新掌控局面了。”

Yet the government has repeatedly sought to play down the very risks that AI companies have been at pains to highlight.

然而,政府却屡屡试图淡化人工智能企业所着重指陈的风险。

In another social media post on Monday, Trump declared that anxieties about artificial intelligence were entirely unfounded, arising merely from the fact that "the United States is winning by a landslide against all other countries. Don't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs!"

特朗普于周一在另一则社交媒体帖文中宣称对人工智能的忧虑实属杞人忧天无非是因为美国正大幅领先所有其他国家不要杀死下金蛋的鹅!”

AI infrastructure construction has accounted for a considerable share of economic growth during Trump's second term, with the administration wagering that the technology will engender additional productivity gains.

人工智能基础设施建设在特朗普第二任期内占据了经济增长相当大份额政府押注这项技术将催生额外的生产率增长

Speaking to reporters on Monday morning about artificial intelligence, Vice President JD Vance declared, "I certainly don't think Americans have any reason to fear anything."

副总统JD·万斯于周一上午向记者谈及人工智能时宣称:“我绝不认为美国人有任何理由畏惧任何事物。”

As he was about to depart for Kansas to throw himself into the midterm election campaign, Vance said that the Trump administration harbors misgivings about artificial intelligence, yet is striving to ensure that the technology is regulated in a prudent and judicious manner, and warned that the United States finds itself embroiled in an AI arms race with China.

万斯在即将启程前往堪萨斯州投身中期选举竞选活动之际表示特朗普政府对人工智能心存忧虑但力求确保以审慎明智的方式对这一技术加以监管并警告称美国正置身于与中国之间的一场AI军备竞赛之中

"Speaking for myself, what strikes me as rather curious is that so many of these frontier AI technology companies should be beating a path to the government, imploring it to regulate them.

就我个人而言令我颇感蹊跷的是如此众多处于前沿的人工智能科技企业竟纷纷趋赴政府恳请其对自身施以监管

To my mind, there is something distinctly Trojan-horse about the whole affair," Vance remarked.

在我看来此举颇有几分特洛伊木马之意味,”万斯说道

"And so, I believe we must exercise considerable caution in this regard."

是故我认为我们对此务须审慎。”
