François Chollet 反对将当前 AI 视为具有意识
认为当前AI模型是有感知能力的并且会遭受痛苦的观念，结合认为痛苦可以被数学量化并在人类与非人类之间权衡的愚蠢想法，可能会将我们引向一条极其黑暗和反乌托邦的道路。
但在达到那个地步之前，它将理所当然地遭到人类团队的强烈反弹。
旁注。认为当前模型是有意识的想法是荒谬且极度冒犯的。不要将胜任的信息处理与感知混为一谈，它们完全无关。
你可以完全无能于一切却完全有意识，比如一个蹒跚学步的幼儿，或者在一种或多种领域极其胜任却绝对没有意识，比如计算器、国际象棋引擎、自动驾驶汽车，或AI聊天机器人。
拥有特定领域胜任信息处理的“电路”，无论是通过训练还是硬编码，都不会产生感质、主观体验、情感或痛苦。计算器不会“感觉”算术，它们在处理更大数字时也不会感到疲倦或恼火。主张相反的观点在本体论上是荒谬的。当前的AI模型本质上是计算器，扩展到通过梯度下降刻录的众多胜任电路，覆盖许多领域。
对照原文
The notion that current AI models are sentient and can suffer, combined with the foolish idea that suffering can be mathematically quantified and weighted between humans and non-humans, could lead us down an incredibly dark and dystopian path. But before it gets to that point, it will rightfully be met with immense backlash from team humans.
Side note. The idea that current models are conscious is absurd and downright offensive. Do not confuse competent information processing and sentience, they are wholly unrelated. You can be entirely incompetent at everything yet fully conscious, like a toddler, or extraordinarily competent in one or more domains with absolutely zero consciousness, like a calculator, a chess engine, a self-driving car, or an AI chatbot. Possessing the "circuits" for competent information processing in a given domain, whether through training or hardcoding, does not produce qualia, subjective experience, emotions, or suffering. Calculators do not "feel" arithmetic and they don't get tired or annoyed when you give them larger numbers to process. To argue otherwise is ontologically absurd. Current AI models are effectively calculators scaled to a very large number of competence circuits across many domains, etched via gradient descent.
