资讯：AI可能对人类构成“灭绝级威胁”

Geoffrey Hinton, known as the AI godfather for his work pioneering neural networks, is a vocal member of the latter group. He told the BBC that he's "very worried about AI taking lots of mundane jobs." And he believes a universal basic income might be the solution.
杰弗里·辛顿 (Geoffrey Hinton) 因其在神经网络方面的开创性工作而被称为人工智能教父，他是后者的重要成员。 他告诉 BBC，他“非常担心人工智能会抢走很多平凡的工作”。 他认为全民基本收入可能是解决方案。

"I was consulted by people in Downing Street," he said. "I advised them that universal basic income was a good idea."
“唐宁街的人咨询了我，”他说。 “我建议他们全民基本收入是个好主意。”

Universal basic income is a recurring cash payment made to all adults in a certain population regardless of their wealth and employment status — with no restrictions on how they spend the money. It's become a hot topic among AI researchers, futurists, and industry leaders as a way to mitigate AI's economic impact.
全民基本收入是向特定人群中的所有成年人定期支付的现金，无论其财富和就业状况如何，并且对他们的花钱方式没有限制。 作为减轻人工智能经济影响的一种方式，它已成为人工智能研究人员、未来学家和行业领导者的热门话题。

The idea is also gaining attention in countries like South Africa, Kenya, and India as a way to tackle poverty. And in the United States, numerous cities and some states have experimented with guaranteed basic incomes, which also give no-strings-attached monthly payments but to a targeted group of people.
作为解决贫困问题的一种方式，这一想法也引起了南非、肯尼亚和印度等国家的关注。 在美国，许多城市和一些州已经尝试了有保障的基本收入，这也为目标人群提供无附加条件的每月付款。

In Hinton's view, AI will boost productivity and generate more wealth. But unless the government intervenes, it will only make the rich richer and hurt the people who might lose their jobs. "That's going to be very bad for society," he said.
在 Hinton 看来，人工智能将提高生产力并创造更多财富。 但除非政府干预，否则只会让富人更富，并伤害那些可能失业的人。 “这对社会来说非常糟糕，”他说。

Hinton advocates for a more cautious approach to AI development and says that in just 5 to 20 years, AI could be an "extinction-level threat" for humans.
Hinton 主张对人工智能的开发采取更加谨慎的态度，并表示在短短 5 到 20 年内，人工智能可能对人类构成“灭绝级威胁”。
