This year marks exactly two centuries since the publication of Frankenstein, or, The Modem Prometheus, by Mary Shelley. Even before the invention of the electric light bulb, the author produced a remarkable work of speculative fiction that would foreshadow many ethical questions to be raised by technologies yet to come.
Today the rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) raises fundamental questions: "What is intelligence, identity, or consciousness? What makes humans humans?"
What is being called artificial general intelligence, machines that would imitate the way humans think, continues to evade scientists. Yet humans remain fascinated by the idea of robots that would look, move, and respond like humans, similar to those recently depicted on popular sci-fi TV series such as "West world" and "Humans".
"Just how people think is still far too complex to be understood, let alone reproduced, " says David Eagleman, a Stanford University neuroscientist. "We are just in a situation where there are no good theories explaining what consciousness actually is and how you could ever build a machine to get there. "
But that doesn’t mean crucial ethical issues involving AI aren’t at hand. The coming use of autonomous vehicles, for example, poses thorny ethical questions. Human drivers sometimes must make split-second decisions. Their reactions may he a complex combination of instant reflexes, input from past driving experiences, and what their eyes and ears tell them in that moment. AI "vision" today is not nearly as sophisticated as that of humans. And to anticipate every imaginable driving situation is a difficult programming problem.
Whenever decisions are based on masses of data. "you quickly get into a lot of ethical questions," notes Tan Kiat How, chief executive of a Singapore-based agency that is helping the government develop a voluntary code for the ethical use of AI. Along with Singapore, other governments and mega-corporations are beginning to establish their own guidelines. Britain is setting up a data ethics center. India released its AI ethics strategy this spring.
On June 7th Google pledged not to "design or deploy AI" that would cause "overall harm, " or to develop Al-directed weapons or use AI for surveillance that would violate international norms. It also pledged not to deploy AI whose use would violate international laws or human rights.
While the statement is vague, it represents one starting point, So does the idea that decisions made by AI systems should be explainable, transparent, and fair. To put it another way. How can we make sure that the thinking of intelligent machines reflects humanity’s highest values? Only then will they be useful servants and not Frankenstein’s out-of-control monster.
Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein is mentioned because it______.
选项
A、fascinates AI scientists all over the world
B、has remained popular for as long as 200 years.
C、involves some concerns raised by AI today
D、has sparked serious ethical controversies
答案
C
解析
根据题干关键词定位到文章第一段最后一句话“Even before the invention of the electric light bulb,the author produced a remarkable work of speculative fiction that would fore-shadow many ethical questions to be raised by technologies yet to come.”,即甚至在电灯发明之前,作者创作了这部举世瞩目的推测性小说,这部小说预示了很多即将到来的技术所带来的很多道德伦理方面的问题。由此可知C项“涉及了一些今天AI人工智能带来的担忧”为正确答案,其中,involves对应foreshadow,some concerns对应many ethical questions。其余选项在原文均无依据,故排除。
