Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, took the stage on Tuesday to unveil an artificial intelligence agent that is "remarkably capable and always on."

OpenAIのCEOであるサム・アルトマン氏は、火曜日の登壇において「驚くほど有能で、常時稼働する」人工知能エージェントを披露した。

The day before, the company had halted the rollout of a more advanced model, citing safety concerns.

その前日、同社はより先進的なモデルの展開を、安全上の懸念を理由に中止していた。

At the company's annual developer conference, Altman rolled out a series of product announcements and updates, among which was OpenAI's new agent, "Dots."

同社の年次開発者会議において、アルトマン氏は一連の製品発表および更新を実施し、その中にはOpenAIの新たなエージェント「Dots」も含まれていた。

This agent is designed to actively carry out ongoing tasks on users' behalf, and it is positioned as a rival product to Meta's personal agent "Muse," whose popularity surged following Meta's conference last week.

このエージェントは、ユーザーに代わって進行中のタスクを能動的に完遂するよう設計されており、先週のMetaの会議を経て人気が急騰したMetaのパーソナルエージェント「Muse」に対する競合製品として位置づけられる。

Regarding the Dot agent, Mr. Altman stated, "It will be something like an AI helper that always supports you, inspired by the cool versions we saw in movies during our childhood."

アルトマン氏は、Dotエージェントについて「我々が幼少期に映画で目にしたクールなバージョンに着想を得た、常にあなたを支えるAIヘルパーのような存在になる」と述べた。

On Monday, OpenAI announced that it was postponing the release of its other model, citing concerns raised by researchers.

月曜日、OpenAIは研究者たちから提起された懸念を理由に、もう一方のモデルのリリースを延期していると発表した。

This came on the heels of a broad chorus of voices within the industry calling for a slowdown so that safety measures could keep pace with the speed of technological advancement.

これは、安全対策が技術の進歩のペースに追いつくよう減速を求める業界内の幅広い声に続くものだった。

In his keynote address, Mr. Altman avoided touching on concerns regarding the shelved model, but during the question-and-answer session, he stated that the company is investing more than ever in the safety, security, and monitoring of AI agents.

アルトマン氏は基調講演で、棚上げされたモデルに関する懸念に触れることを避けたが、質疑応答セッションでは、同社がAIエージェントの安全性、セキュリティ、監視にこれまで以上に投資していると述べた。

He stated that the AI boom should be viewed as a phenomenon comparable to the Renaissance rather than to the Industrial Revolution.

彼は、AIブームは産業革命というよりもむしろルネサンス期に相当する現象として捉えるべきであると述べた。

Mr. Altman stated, "The best form of AI is not to turn people into cogs in a giant machine and keep them spinning faster and faster.

アルトマン氏は、「AIの最良の形態とは、人々を巨大な機械の歯車に変えて、どんどん速く回し続けることではない。

There are parts of life that cannot and should not be automated."

人生には自動化できないし、すべきでない部分もある」と述べた。

"AI should provide more tools for people to gain more power over their own lives, to create, to learn, to discover, and to expand their knowledge."

「AIは、人々が自分の人生に対してより多くの力を得て、創造し、学び、発見し、知識を広げるための、より多くのツールを提供するものであるべきだ。」

The company further announced the release of GPT-6.1 Sol, an upgraded version of the GPT-6 Sol model, as well as a premium speed tier dubbed "Ultrafast."

同社はさらに、モデルGPT-6 Solのアップグレード版に当たるGPT-6.1 Solのリリース、ならびに「Ultrafast」と称されるプレミアム速度層を公表した。

OpenAI's announcement came just before the leaders of six major AI companies, including OpenAI, signed a voluntary agreement with President Donald Trump on Tuesday to "self-regulate" development.

OpenAIの発表は、OpenAIを含む主要AI企業6社のリーダーたちが火曜日にドナルド・トランプ大統領と開発を「自主規制」する自主協定に署名する直前に行われた。

Under the agreement, companies are to implement "robust internal controls," work with "independent external auditors" to assess whether those controls are functioning, and establish a committee on each company's board of directors to evaluate reports from internal and external auditors.

協定によれば、企業は「強固な内部統制」を実施し、「独立した外部監査人」と連携して統制が機能しているかを評価するとともに、各社の取締役会に委員会を設置し、内部および外部監査人からの報告を評価することになっている。

Although many people in Silicon Valley are urging the government to help establish guardrails for technology, Trump opposes the idea of increased government oversight of AI.

シリコンバレーの多くの人々は、政府に対して技術のガードレールの確立を支援するよう促しているものの、トランプ氏はAIに対する政府の監視強化という構想に反対の立場をとっている。

Although Mr. Altman was absent, Greg Brockman, OpenAI's president and co-founder, was at the White House alongside Anthropic's Dario Amodei, Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Nvidia's Jensen Huang, Elon Musk of Tesla and SpaceX, and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella.

アルトマン氏は出席しなかったものの、OpenAIの社長兼共同創業者であるグレッグ・ブロックマン氏は、Anthropicのダリオ・アモデイ氏、Amazonのジェフ・ベゾス氏、Nvidiaのジェンセン・ファン氏、TeslaとSpaceXのイーロン・マスク氏、そしてMicrosoftのCEOサティア・ナデラ氏とともにホワイトハウスにいた。
