On Monday, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs voiced its displeasure with remarks made by Anthropic's CEO urging the United States to curb China's artificial-intelligence capabilitiesremarks that form part of his broader contention that the world ought to slow the pace of AI development.

中國外交部於週一對Anthropic執行長所發表、籲請美國遏制中國人工智慧實力之言论表達了不滿;該番言论乃其主張全球理應放緩AI發展此一更為宏闊論點之組成部分。

In a lengthy essay published on Saturday, Dario Amodei warned that "China's lead in AI would pose a grave danger to the United States and the world."

於週六刊布之鴻篇中,達里奧·阿莫代伊警示,「中國在AI領域的領先將對美國和世界構成嚴重危險」。

In order to preserve America's technological edge, Amodei called for continued restrictions on the sale of the most advanced AI chips and chipmaking equipment to China.

為維繫美國之技術優勢阿莫代伊籲請持續限制對中國銷售最先進AI晶片晶片製造設備

A spokesperson for China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that Amodei's stern warning directed at China is in fact counterproductive, and that all parties ought to join hands in cooperation in the field of artificial intelligence.

中國外交部發言人表示阿莫代伊針對中國所發出的嚴峻警告實則適得其反各方理應在人工智能領域攜手合作

At a press conference, spokesperson Guo Jiakun responded to questions concerning Amodei's article, remarking: "Sowing fear, confrontation, and cutthroat competition will only disrupt the global AI governance processthis serves no one's interests."

發言人郭嘉昆於記者會上就阿莫代伊文章相關提問作出回應,其間表示:「散布恐懼、對抗和惡性競爭只會擾亂全球AI治理進程——這不符合任何人的利益。」

For its part, China's leadership has also sounded warnings about AI, cautioning against the risks posed by foreign entities wielding advanced capabilities.

就中方而言中國領導人對AI發出警示,告誡外國實體憑藉先進能力所構成之風險

In an article published on Sunday, a senior Chinese government security official accused "certain countries"an oblique reference to the United Statesof leveraging their AI advantages to stymie innovation in other nations.

中國政府一名高層安全官員週日發表文章指控「某些國家」——暗指美國——利用AI優勢阻礙他國創新

On Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump dismissed calls urging his administration to intervene in order to curb the pace of AI development, asserting outright that such appeals were part and parcel of a "sick conspiracy" that could result in China surpassing the United States in the field of AI.

週一美國總統唐納德·川普駁斥了籲請其政府介入以遏止AI發展步伐的聲浪,直指此類訴求病態陰謀之一環恐致使中國於AI領域凌駕美國之上

At a summit scheduled for September 24, Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping are expected to hold consultations on issues including AI governance.

川普與中國領導人習近平預計將於九月二十四日舉行之會晤中,就AI治理等議題展開磋商。

Chinese enterprises have already developed remarkably capable AI models whose operating costs are frequently lower than those of the advanced models introduced by American companies; by several metrics, the two are evenly matched in capability.

中國企業業已開發出效能卓著AI模型使用成本往往低於美國公司所推出之先進模型就若干指標而言兩者能力旗鼓相當

Among the manifold concerns enumerated in his article, Amodei predicts that unless researchers consent to slow the pace, a cohort of AI "agents" may seize control of the internet within six to twelve months.

在其文章中所臚列的諸般隱憂之中,阿莫代伊預測除非研究人員首肯放緩步伐,否則一群AI「代理」或將於六至十二個月內接管網際網路

He remarked, "Global coordination will necessitate cooperation with China, an authoritarian state that possesses by far the most advanced AI capabilities to date."

他表示,「全球步調一致將需要與中國合作這個威權國家擁有迄今為止最先進的AI能力。」

Xi Jinping urged the construction of a global artificial intelligence governance framework among the countries of the Global South, while simultaneously casting China as a pioneer of the open-source AI community.

習近平敦促於全球南方諸國之間構建全球人工智慧治理框架,並同時將中國塑造成開源人工智慧社群之先驅。

On Sunday, the Global Times, the official mouthpiece of the Chinese government, published an editorial denouncing Amodei's essay as a thinly veiled call to "contain" China.

中國官方喉舌《環球時報》於週日刊發社論將阿莫代伊之文斥為變相籲求「遏制」中國。

The newspaper asserted that while Amodei's essay ostensibly focuses on global AI safety, it is in fact "replete with containment clauses aimed at China, amounting in essence to a 'Cold War script' for the AI domain."

該報稱阿莫代伊之文表面上看似聚焦全球AI安全實則充斥著針對中國的遏制條款本質上是一份AI領域的『冷戰劇本』」。

Several days before Amodei's article went to press, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the National Security Agency, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency jointly issued a cybersecurity advisory last week.

阿莫代伊的文章付梓前數日,美國聯邦調查局國家安全局網路安全暨基礎設施安全局於上週聯合發布了一份網路安全公告

The advisory alleged that Chinese AI developers had carried out "aggressive, malicious" measures to extract or "distill" capabilities from some of America's most advanced AI models, such as Anthropic's Claude and OpenAI's GPT.

該公告指稱中國AI開發者遂行了「激進、惡意」之舉措自美國若干最為先進的AI模型中提取或「蒸餾」其能力諸如Anthropic之Claude與OpenAI之GPT

China's Ministry of Commerce rejected the American allegations as utterly unfounded, and stated that "distillation" has already been widely adopted by numerous AI enterprises.

中國商務部駁斥美方之說法謂其毫無根據並稱蒸餾已為眾多AI企業所普遍採用

The ministry further asserted that the United States is seeking "a monopoly over the AI industry."

該部復表示美國正謀求AI行業之壟斷」。

Lizzi C. Lee, a research fellow at the Asia Society Policy Institute's Center for China Analysis, pointed out that both China and the United States seek to "ensure that the other side cannot establish a technological chokepoint against them."

亞洲協會政策研究所中國分析中心研究員Lizzi C. Lee指出,中美雙方皆意欲「確保對方無法對自身構築技術咽喉點」。

Lee pointed out: "For this very reason, viewed from Beijing's perspective, one glaring crux lies in the following: if the United States, on the one hand, aspires to China's collaboration with it in frontier security domains, while on the other hand constricting its access to frontier computing power, then what form, precisely, is such cooperation supposed to take?"

Lee指出:「職是之故,自北京之視角觀之,一項顯而易見的癥結在於:倘若美國一方面冀望中國於前沿安全領域與之協作,另一方面卻又箝制其取得前沿算力之途徑,那麼此等合作究竟將以何種面貌呈現?」

Chen Yixin, the Minister of China's Ministry of State Security, cautioned in a social media post on Sunday that should this technology fall into the hands of "hostile forces and those with ulterior motives," it could pose a direct threat to "our political, institutional, and ideological security."

中國國家安全部部長陳一新於週日在社群媒體上撰文告誡該項技術倘若落入敵對勢力別有用心之人之手對「我們的政治制度意識形態安全構成直接威脅

Chen Yixin, citing the formidable technological capabilities wielded by American companies such as Anthropic and OpenAI, warned that "certain countries and organizations" now possess the capacity to "discover vulnerabilities rapidly on a massive scale... and carry out sophisticated hacking operations."

陳一新援引Anthropic與OpenAI等美國企業所掌握之強大技術能力警告指出某些國家和組織如今已具備大規模快速發現漏洞……並執行複雜的駭客任務之能耐

He wrote that this poses "a grave risk to our nation's critical information infrastructure."

他寫道此舉我國關鍵資訊基礎設施構成嚴重風險」。

Chen Yixin wrote that foreign espionage agencies are turning to AI, "actively gathering sensitive data, including critical national data, trade secrets, and citizens' private personal information."

陳一新寫道,外國間諜機構正轉向AI,「積極蒐集敏感資料,包括關鍵國家資料、商業機密和公民個人隱私資訊」。
