A recent documentary on Elon Musk, employing CGI avatars and synchronized artificial intelligence voice technology, simulates an exclusive interview with the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, the content of which is derived entirely from his own spoken remarks during interviews.

一部关于埃隆·马斯克的最新纪录片借助CGI化身人工智能语音同步技术,模拟了对这位SpaceX及特斯拉首席执行官的专访其内容皆源自他在访谈中亲口所述之言

Filmmaker Alex Gibney remarked on Tuesday, ahead of the global premiere in Venice, that this choice was a deliberate irony.

电影制片人亚历克斯·吉布尼周二在威尼斯全球首映前表示这一选择是刻意为之的讽刺

It simultaneously alludes to Musk's proposition that we all inhabit a simulation, while also satirizing his somewhat contradictory and ever-evolving stance on technology.

既引用了马斯克关于我们都生活在模拟中的命题也讽刺了他对技术那种有些矛盾且不断变化的观点

Gibney stated that this was intended to convey "the reality of what he does and the unreality of his narrative."

吉布尼说这是为了传达他所做之事的现实性他叙述的非现实性”。

Prior to embarking on the in-depth production, the producers had already consulted legal counsel and secured formal authorization for the use of Musk's likeness.

在着手进行深度制作之前,制片人已先行咨询法律顾问使用马斯克肖像一事取得了正式授权。

The Oscar-laureled producer graced the Venice Film Festival gala in the company of Ashley St. Clair.

这位荣膺奥斯卡殊荣的制片人偕同阿什莉·圣克莱尔亮相于威尼斯电影节之盛典

St. Clair, erstwhile luminary of the conservative commentary sphere, shares a son with Musk and features in the film.

圣克莱尔昔日保守派舆论场之翘楚与马斯克育有一子参演该片

She expounds at length upon the arc of their romance, the subtleties of his temperament, and the non-disclosure agreement she was entreated to sign yet resolutely declinedan instrument proffering child support as a lure to procure her silence.

娓娓道来二人情缘之始末其性情之幽微以及那份她曾被要求签署却毅然拒绝的保密协议——该协议以保障抚养费为饵诱其缄默

"I was proffered a hush money sum amounting to forty million dollars," she thus recounted.

我曾被馈赠高达四千万美元的封口费,”如是言道

Earlier this year, St. Clair initiated legal proceedings against Musk's artificial intelligence enterprise, alleging that its Grok chatbot facilitated the generation of deepfake imagery depicting her sexual exploitationa transgression that not only subjected her to public ignominy but also plunged her into an ineffable abyss of psychological anguish.

今年年初圣克莱尔对马斯克的人工智能企业提起了法律诉讼指控其Grok聊天机器人纵容用户生成涉及她性剥削的深度伪造图像此举不仅令她蒙受羞辱更使其深陷难以名状的精神苦痛

The film offers a trenchant dissection of Musk's takeover of X, delving into the algorithmic manipulation that Gibney alleges.

该影片马斯克接管X一事进行了鞭辟入里的剖析,并深入探究了吉布尼所指控的算法操纵行径

At the outset of embarking upon this cinematic endeavor, a facet I had yet to fully apprehend was that Musk's recalibration of Twitter's algorithm effectively elevated acrimony and hostility above the purported 'town square,' as Gibney so articulately posits.

在着手制作这部影片之初我尚未充分领悟的一点在于马斯克对Twitter算法的调整实质上是将刻薄与敌意凌驾于所谓的“城市广场”之上吉布尼如是说

Zoë Schiffer, a journalist for Wired magazine, also appears in the film, elaborating further: “He tweaked his algorithm in a manner that not only stifled the dissemination of mainstream news but also markedly amplified several of the more inflammatory commentaries and voices on the platform.”

《连线》杂志记者佐伊·希弗在影片中亮相,她进一步阐述道:“对其算法进行了调整此举不仅压制了主流新闻的传播显著放大了该平台上若干更具煽动性的评论声音。”

St. Clair remarked that she perceives him as deliberately fanning the flames, “engineering a premeditated schism, the likes of which, if left unchecked or ungoverned, could precipitate catastrophic ramifications.”

圣克莱尔表示她认为他正在蓄意煽风点火,“制造有预谋的分裂此种行径若不加约束管控恐将酿成灾难性后果。”

The film "Musk," spanning nearly four hours, offers a profound dissection of his trauma-laden childhood, interweaving interview footage with his father, Errol Musk, and tracing his early years in Silicon Valley up to his involvement with DOGE affairs in Donald Trump's second administration, as well as his interventions in right-wing politics on the international stage.

《马斯克》这部影片时长近四小时深刻剖析他饱经创伤的童年岁月其中穿插对乃父埃罗尔·马斯克的访谈实录并追溯他在硅谷的早年生涯直至其涉足唐纳德·特朗普第二届政府中的DOGE事务以及在国际舞台上对右翼政治的干预

Gibney candidly concedes that the film could have been more concise, yet Musk's subsequent entanglement with Trump's campaign necessitated an expansion of its scope.

吉布尼坦言此片本可更为精简然而马斯克后来与特朗普的竞选活动紧密交织致使篇幅不得不有所延展

The roster of interviewees encompasses Martin Eberhard, co-founder of Tesla; Justine Musk, his first wife; the neuroscientist Sam Harris; Kara Swisher, a seasoned technology journalist; and Samantha Power, former administrator of the United States Agency for International Development.

受访者阵容囊括特斯拉联合创始人马丁·艾伯哈德其首任妻子贾斯汀·马斯克神经科学家山姆·哈里斯科技领域资深记者卡拉·斯威舍以及美国国际开发署前任署长萨曼莎·鲍尔

Gibney asserts that, in his estimation, Musk poses an 'extremely' grave threat to democratic institutions.

吉布尼断言他认为马斯克对民主制度构成了“极其”严重的威胁

Scheduled for theatrical release in October, this film sounds a strident alarm over the 'DOGE boys'' brazen appropriation of American citizens' personal data as they are afforded unfettered latitude to infiltrate a multitude of government agencies.

这部定于十月登陆院线的影片“DOGE男孩”在得以无拘无束地渗透众多政府机构之际、大肆攫取美国公民个人信息的行为拉响了刺耳的警报
