New rules often come out of(由…产生,源于) disasters. America’s Federal Reserve was founded following the Panic of 1907(1907年恐慌), when stock prices fell by half. Pressure from muckrakers(揭黑记者) such as Upton Sinclair brought about the Food and Drug Administration. The Securities and Exchange Commission was founded during the Great Depression. Artificial intelligence has not yet caused a calamity(灾难,灾祸), but it might. Models like Anthropic’s Mythos and OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Sol are extraordinarily good hackers and could become capable advisers to bioterrorists(生物恐怖分子).
新规则往往源于灾难。美国联邦储备委员会是在1907年恐慌之后成立的,当时股价下跌了一半。厄普顿·辛克莱等揭黑记者的压力催生了食品药品监督管理局。证券交易委员会成立于大萧条时期。人工智能尚未造成灾难,但可能即将发生。像Anthropic的Mythos和OpenAI的GPT-5.6 Sol这样的模型是极其出色的黑客,并可能成为生物恐怖分子的得力顾问。
Understandably(可以理解地), the Trump administration is trying to regulate the technology before catastrophe(大灾难,浩劫) strikes. It is working with AI companies on voluntary standards(自愿性标准) that could soon be released. Unfortunately, its efforts so far have been a mess(一团糟,混乱局面).
可以理解,特朗普政府正试图在灾难发生前监管这项技术。它正与AI公司合作制定自愿性标准,这些标准可能很快发布。不幸的是,其努力迄今一团糟。
Anthropic was its first victim, slapped with(突然施加(惩罚等)) export controls in mid-June after the release of Fable, a guardrailed(加了护栏的) version of Mythos. That came not long after a row(争吵,争执(名词)) between the company and the Pentagon. Fears of a grudge were allayed(对(打击报复的)担忧得以缓解) when the administration appeared to compel(强迫,迫使) OpenAI to limit access to its Sol model. Then, on June 30th, the Commerce Department abruptly(突然地,唐突地) lifted the ban on Fable after Anthropic fiddled with(摆弄,调整(常含贬义)) its safety protections.
Anthropic成为其第一个受害者,在发布Fable(Mythos的加了护栏的版本)后,于6月中旬被施以出口管制。此前不久,该公司与五角大楼发生了争执。当政府似乎迫使OpenAI限制其Sol模型的访问时,人们对报复的担忧得以缓解。然后,在6月30日,商务部在Anthropic调整其安全保护措施后突然解除了对Fable的禁令。
