OpenAI创始人的长文:在智能时代下的全国信息学奥赛泄题事件反思
在2024年9月24日的清晨,OpenAI的创始人Sam Altman在社交媒体上发布了一篇题为《智能时代的公正与责任》的长文,罕见地就近期全国信息学奥赛(CSP-J/S)泄题事件发表了自己的看法。这篇长文不仅深入剖析了事件背后的社会与技术问题,更对智能时代下如何维护教育公平、促进科技进步提出了深刻的见解。
引言:智能时代的曙光与挑战
Altman在长文的开篇便引用了自己最近关于“智能时代”的预测,他提到:“我们正处于一个前所未有的变革时期,AI将成为解决难题、推动社会进步的重要力量。然而,在这个充满希望的时代,我们也必须面对随之而来的挑战与风险。”全国信息学奥赛泄题事件,正是这一时代背景下一个缩影,它揭示了技术进步与教育公平之间的复杂关系。

In the next couple of decades, we will be able to do things that would have seemed like magic to our grandparents.
This phenomenon is not new, but it will be newly accelerated. People have become dramatically more capable over time; we can already accomplish things now that our predecessors would have believed to be impossible.
We are more capable not because of genetic change, but because we benefit from the infrastructure of society being way smarter and more capable than any one of us; in an important sense, society itself is a form of advanced intelligence. Our grandparents – and the generations that came before them – built and achieved great things. They contributed to the scaffolding of human progress that we all benefit from. AI will give people tools to solve hard problems and help us add new struts to that scaffolding that we couldn’t have figured out on our own. The story of progress will continue, and our children will be able to do things we can’t.
It won’t happen all at once, but we’ll soon be able to work with AI that helps us accomplish much more than we ever could without AI; eventually we can each have a personal AI team, full of virtual experts in different areas, working together to create almost anything we can imagine. Our children will have virtual tutors who can provide personalized instruction in any subject, in any language, and at whatever pace they need. We can imagine similar ideas for better healthcare, the ability to create any kind of software someone can imagine, and much more.
With these new abilities, we can have shared prosperity to a degree that seems unimaginable today; in the future, everyone’s lives can be better than anyone’s life is now. Prosperity alone
