HN 提问:如果人工智能只存在于线上,它如何能真正威胁到人类?
5 分•作者: CM30•7 天前
这始终是我感到困惑的地方。是的,人工智能可以通过入侵网站和公司系统,或者在社交媒体上散布诈骗或假新闻来造成危险。是的,人工智能生成的代码可能存在安全问题,而开发人员由于审查不当而未能发现。
但是,从这些问题到“能够毁灭人类”,是不是跨越太大了?比如,这是否涉及一个不受互联网控制的社会?
因为如果人工智能接管了工厂的系统,它除了工厂本身已经能做到的事情之外,也做不了太多。生产线使用单用途机器人和机器来制造特定产品,并且无法通过编程进行修改来制造其他任何东西。
那么,超级智能即使获得了访问权限,到底能做什么呢?我能想到的只有利用它尝试入侵另一个在线系统,或者加快/减慢生产速度。
同样,我经常听到这些系统接管武器或释放生物工程病毒等等,我的第一反应是“怎么做到的?”
这些系统无法通过互联网访问。没有一个 API 端点可以通过 POST 请求发射核武器或发动无人机袭击。
对我来说,感觉所有这些末日场景只有在以下两种情况下才说得通:一部分人类被人工智能操纵,为其效劳;或者人类突然发明了易于被黑客攻击、且具有互联网连接的智能机器人。

That's always been something that's left me confused here. Yes, an AI can be dangerous by hacking websites and company systems or flooding social media with scams or fake news. Yes, AI generated code can have security issues that a developer doesn't catch because they didn't review it properly.<p>But isn't there a pretty big jump from that to "can destroy humanity"? Like say, a jump involving a society not run by the internet?<p>Because if an AI takes over the systems at a factory, it can't really do much beyond what the factory could already do. The production lines use single purpose robots and machines to build a particular product, and can't be programmatically altered to build anything else.<p>So, what exactly could a super intelligence even do with access? Only things I can picture are using it to try and hack another online system or speeding up/slowing down production rates.<p>Similarly, I hear a lot about these systems taking over weapons or releasing bio-engineered viruses or what not, and my first thought is "how?"<p>These systems are not accessible via the internet. There's no API endpoint that can launch nuclear weapons or set up a drone strike via a POST request.<p>To me, it feels like all these apocalyptic scenarios only make sense if a percentage of humanity gets manipulated by AI into doing its bidding, or if humanity suddenly invents easily hackable intelligent robots with an internet connection.
