How to burst the AI bubble: Strike at its roots
摘要
科里·多克托罗在其新书《反向半人马：AI之后的生活指南》中，探讨了AI泡沫的本质与破灭之道。他认为，当前AI领域充斥着夸大宣传，而“反向半人马”指的是人类沦为机器的附属品，如被AI监控的送货司机。多克托罗主张从根源上戳破AI泡沫，回归技术实质。
Last year we featured a lengthy interview with tech journalist/science fiction author Cory Doctorow about his book, Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What To Do About It. The prolific Doctorow is back with a provocative new book that serves as a follow-up of sorts, focusing on AI and related issues: The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI.
Doctorow doesn't actually enjoy talking about AI, but he's constantly being asked to comment on it. "I made the tactical error of being sick of talking about AI," Doctorow told Ars. "So I wrote a book about why I think it's a dumb thing to keep asking people to talk about, and now I have to talk about it." Reverse Centaur is Doctorow's attempt to "sort out the bullshit from the material reality."
In automation theory, per Doctorow, a "centaur" describes a human augmented with a technology, like machine learning, or even just driving a car, or using autocomplete. A reverse centaur "is a machine head on a human body, a person who is serving as a squishy meat appendage for an uncaring machine," Doctorow said in a speech last December. He gave the example of an Amazon delivery driver, surrounded by AI cameras monitoring their driving, who essentially serves as a peripheral to the delivery van.
