【67】We don't have to vote for the apocalypse.
世界末日的到来由不得我们决定。
【68】Jack Good worked at Bletchley Park with Alan Turing during World War II, building the early computing machinery that would crack the Nazi Enigma code.
二战时,杰克·古德和艾伦·图灵 就职于布莱切利园, 搭建早期的计算机器, 破解纳粹的恩尼格玛密码。
【69】Now after the war, Turing, wrestling with the problems of a stored, programmed computer had a bigger dream on his mind.
战后,图灵试图做出一台 能存储、能编程的计算机, 他的脑海中浮现出了 一个更宏伟的目标。
【70】And in 1950, Alan Turing published a paper called “Computing Machinery and Intelligence.” And in there, there's a chapter that's titled "Lady Lovelace's Objection"
1950 年,艾伦·图灵 发表了一篇论文, 题为《计算机器与智能》。 文中有一个章节 题为《洛芙莱斯夫人的异议》,
【71】where Turing time-travels back 100 years to have a conversation with that long-dead genius, Ada Lovelace, the first person to write mathematical programs for the computer not yet built by her friend Charles Babbage.
于此,图灵穿越回了 100 年前, 和一位早已作古的天才进行了对话, 她就是阿达·洛芙莱斯 （Ada Lovelace）—— 首位为计算机编写数学程序的人, 甚至早于她的朋友 查尔斯·巴贝奇（Charles Babbage）。
【72】Now Ada wrote that as well as doing awesome stuff with numbers, the computer would, if correctly programmed, be able to write novels and compose music.
阿达编写着程序, 也在用数字做一些奇妙的事情, 如果编写正确,计算机将 可以写小说和作曲。
【73】That is a pretty big insight in 1843.
这在 1843 年可是远见卓识。
【74】'"But," said Ada, "The computer should never have any pretensions to originate anything."
“但是,”阿达说道, “计算机不应该有任何 创造发明的企图。”
【75】She meant, think creatively.
她的意思是创造性思维。
【76】Well, Ada's father was Lord Byron, England's most famous poet, and England is the land of Shakespeare.
阿达的父亲是拜伦勋爵, 英国最着名的诗人, 英国是莎士比亚的天下。
【77】More poets.
还有更多的诗人。
【78】And Ada had seen Charles Babbage's kit all over the floor, and she wasn’t having some steampunk, coal-fired nuts, bolts, bezels, levers, gears, cogs and chains, crank-handled machine writing poetry.
阿达看到查尔斯·巴贝奇的装备 散落一地, 但她也没有让蒸汽朋克、 烧煤的螺母、螺栓、凹槽、杠杆、 齿轮、链条、曲柄机器写诗。
【79】'"Well," said Alan Turing, "Was Lady Lovelace, correct?
“那么,”艾伦·图灵说道, “洛芙莱斯夫人说的对吗？”
【80】Could a computer ever be said to originate anything?
计算机可以创造出什么东西吗？
【81】And what would be the difference between computing intelligence and human intelligence?"
计算智能和人类智能有什么区别呢？
【82】Well, I'll tell you one difference, and it's optimistic.
我可以告诉你一个区别, 而且答案很乐观。
【83】Computing power uses binary, but computing intelligence is nonbinary.
计算机能力使用二进制, 而计算智能是非二进制的。
【84】It's humans who are obsessed with false binaries.
只有人类才沉迷于 这虚假的二元设定。
【85】Male, female. Masculine, feminine.
男性、女性。阳性、阴性。
【86】Black, white. Human, non-human.
黑、白。人类、非人类。
【87】Us, them.
我们、它们。
【88】AI has no skin color.
AI 没有肤色。
【89】AI has no race, no gender, no faith in a sky God.
AI 没有种族,没有性别, 不崇拜什么天神。
【90】AI is not interested in men being superior to women, in white folks being smarter than people of color.
AI 对男性优等、女性劣等, 白人聪明、有色人种愚蠢 没有兴趣。
【91】Straight, gay, gay, trans are not separating categories for AI.
异性恋、同性恋、跨性别, 这些对 AI 来说没有什么区别。
【92】AI does not distinguish between success and failure by gold bars, yachts and Ferraris.
AI 不会根据金条、 游艇、法拉利 定义成功和失败。
【93】AI is not motivated by fame and fortune.
AI 不会受到名利的驱使。
【94】If we develop alternative intelligence, it will be Buddhist in its non-needs.
如果我们有了替代智能, 它会是一个无欲无求的佛教徒。
【95】(Applause) Now I am aware that the algorithms ubiquitous in everyday life are racist, sexist, gendered, trivializing, stoke division, amplify bias.
（掌声） 我发现我们日常生活中 随处可见的算法 都是种族歧视者、性别歧视者, 搞性别对立、蔑视他人、 鼓动分裂、扩大偏见。
【96】But what is this teaching us about ourselves?
这反映了我们自身的什么特质呢？
【97】AI is a tool.
AI 只是一个工具。
【98】We are the ones who are using the tool.
我们才是这个工具的使用者。
【99】Hatred and contempt, money and power are human agendas, not AI agendas.
仇恨和鄙视,金钱和权力, 都是人类所追求的, 不是 AI 所追求的。
【100】We've been forced to recognize the paucity, the inadequacy of our data sets.
我们被迫看清了 数据集的贫乏和不足。
【101】And humans are trained on data sets too.
人类也是由数据集训练而来的。
【102】We've had to recognized the unacknowledged ideologies that we live by every day.
我们必须遵从那些习以为常、 约定俗成的箴言。
【103】Rationality, neutrality, logic, objective decision-making.
做出理性的、中立的、 有逻辑的、客观的决定。
【104】What can we say about any of that when we see what we are reflected back to us in the small screen?
当我们看到小小的屏幕 倒映出我们自己的模样时, 我们还有什么颜面 对此振振有词呢？
【105】And it's not a pretty sight.
这场面可不太好看。
【106】AI is not yet self-aware.
AI 还没有自己的意识。
【107】But we are becoming more self-aware as we work with AI and we realize that Homo sapiens is no longer fit for purpose.
但是与 AI 共事越来越久, 我们也越来越明白, 我们发现人类不再是 成就大业的正确选择。
【108】We need a reboot.
我们得重启。
【109】So what are we going to choose?
我们该选择什么呢？
【110】Apocalypse or an alternative?
世界末日还是别的选择？
【111】I believe that humans have a strong future as a hybrid species as we start to merge with the biotechnology we're creating, whether that's nanobots in the bloodstream, monitoring our vital systems, whether it's genetic editing, whether it's 3D printing of bespoke body parts,
我觉得人类以杂交物种的形式 会有一个光明的未来, 我们正在与自主研发的 生物科技相融合, 无论是在我们的血管里 监测生命系统的纳米机器人、 基因编辑、 3D 打印定制的身体部位,
【112】whether it’s neural implants that will connect us directly to the web and to one another, insourcing information, enhancing our cognitive capacities.
还是能将我们直接接入网络 或相互连接的神经植入, 收集信息,提高我们的认知能力。
【113】And if we manage to upload consciousness, I think that the shift from the transhuman to the posthuman world will seem natural, an evolutionary necessity.
如果我们可以上传意识, 我觉得从超人类到后人类世界的 过渡会更加自然, 是进化的必然结果。
【114】Why do I say that?
为什么我会这么说？
【115】I say that because for millennia, all human beings have been obsessed with the big question, the absurdity of death.
我这么说是因为自古以来, 所有人都在纠结一个大问题—— 死亡的荒谬。
【116】We asked, "Do we have souls?"
我们会问:“我们有灵魂吗？”
【117】We watched the spirit wait to leave the body.
我们见证了 精神即将离开身体。
【118】We created the world's first disruptive startup, the afterlife.
我们创立了世界第一家 颠覆性初创企业——来世。
【119】(Laughter) Now a multinational company, with a vast VR real estate portfolio.
（笑声） 现在它已经是一家跨国公司, 有着大量的 VR （虚拟现实） 地产。
【120】A mansion in the sky, sir?
天上的一栋楼, 先生？
【121】Our earliest extant written narrative, The Epic of Gilgamesh, is a journey to discover if there is life after death.
现存最古老的文字记述 《吉尔伽美什史诗》 记录了探索 死后是否有来生的征程。
【122】And what is life after death?
来世是什么？
【123】It is the extension of the self beyond biological limits.
是超越生物极限, 自我的延续。
【124】Now I’m a writer, and I wonder, have we been telling the story backwards?
我是一名作家,我想, 我们是不是把故事反着讲了？
【125】Did we know we would always get here, capable of creating the kind of superintelligence that we said created us?
我们真的能到达彼岸, 创造出我们认为创造了我们自己的 那种超智能吗？
【126】We're told were made in God's image.
有人说我们是按照上帝的模子 被创造出来的。
【127】God is immortal. God is not a biological entity.
上帝是永生的。 上帝不是生物体。
【128】Since the 17th century, the Enlightenment, science and religion have parted company.
自从 17 世纪启蒙运动以来, 科学和宗教就分道扬镳了。
【129】And science said, all that God thinking, the afterlife stuff, it's folly, It's ignorance, it's superstition.
赛先生说,这些仿照上帝、 说什么来世的东西, 都是愚昧无知的,是迷信。
【130】Suppose it was intuition.
假设这就是直觉。
【131】Suppose it was the only way we could talk about what we knew, a fundamental, deep truth that this is not the last word.
假设这就是我们谈论 已知事物的唯一方式, 我们相信的是 一个基本的、深刻的事实—— 我们的身体不是终点。
【132】This is not the end of the story.
我们的身体不是故事的结局。
【133】That we are not time-bound creatures caught in our bodies.
我们不是受困于肉身、 受限于时间的生物。
【134】That there is further to go.
所以我们还有很长的路要走。
【135】I'm fascinated that computing, science and religion, like parallel lines that do meet in space, are now asking the same question:
我对计算、科学 和宗教很感兴趣, 比如空间中会相交的平行线, 我还是想问这个问题:
【136】Is consciousness obliged to materiality?
意识会受制于物质吗？
【137】Now ...
【138】I accept that machine intelligence will challenge human intelligence.
我接受机器智能 会挑战人类智能。
【139】But the mythos of the world is built around a group of stories that showcase an encounter between a human and a nonhuman entity.
但是世界上的传说 都围绕着一些故事, 它们讲述着人与非人之间的交集。
【140】Think of Jacob wrestling the angel.
比如与天使摔跤的雅各布。
【141】Think of Prometheus bringing fire down from the gods.
比如盗取神火的普罗米修斯。
【142】In these encounters, both parties are changed, not always for the better.
在这些故事中, 双方都发生了变化, 但未必是向好的变化。
【143】But it generally works out.
但是一般都解决了。
【144】We've been thinking about this stuff forever.
我们永远在思考这个问题。
【145】It's time that we created it.
是时候轮到我们来创造它了。
【146】And we could have some fun stuff too.
我们也可以做点好玩的东西。
【147】Who wants their own AI angel?

【148】Me.
我想要。
【149】There's a message in a bottle about this 200 years ago.
早在 200 年前就已经有人 送出了这个“漂流瓶”。
【150】When Ada Lovelace was busy getting born, her father, Lord Byron, was on holiday on Lake Geneva with his friend, the poet Percy Shelley, and Shelley's wife, Mary Shelley.
阿达·洛芙莱斯 还在忙着出世的时候, 她的父亲拜伦勋爵 在日内瓦湖上度假, 同行的是他的朋友,诗人 珀西·雪莱（Percy Shelly） 和雪莱的太太玛丽·雪莱 （Mary Shelley）。
【151】On a wet weekend with no internet Byron said --
在这个潮湿、没有网络的周末, 拜伦说:
【152】(Laughter) "Let's write horror stories."
（笑声） “我们来写恐怖故事吧。”
【153】You know what happened.
你已经知道了后面的故事。
【154】Out of that came the world's most famous monster, Frankenstein.
由此诞生了世界上 最着名的怪物——弗兰肯斯坦。
【155】This is 1816, the start of the Industrial Revolution.
这还是在 1816 年, 工业革命刚开始的时候,
【156】Mary Shelley is just 19 years old.
玛丽·雪莱才 19 岁。
【157】In that novel, there is an alternative intelligence made out of the body parts from the graveyard and electricity.
在这本小说里, 有一个替代智能, 由墓地里的肢体和电力构成。
【158】An astonishing vision because electricity was not in any practical use at all and was hardly understood as a force.
这想象力太惊人了, 因为当时电力还没有投入实际使用, 人们也很难将其联想成一股力量。
【159】You know what happens. The monster is not named. Not educated.
你知道之后发生了什么。 这个怪物没有名字,没读过书,
【160】Is outcast by his panicky creator, Victor Frankenstein.
被他那惊慌失措的创造者
【161】And the whole thing ends in a chase across the Arctic ice towards a G?tterd?mmerung of death and destruction.
整个故事的结局是 一场北极冰川上的追逐, 迈向死亡和毁灭的同归于尽。
【162】The death wish that human beings are so drawn to, perhaps because it's easier to give up than to carry on.
人类心心念念地追求死亡, 可能是因为放弃比坚持更容易。
【163】Well, we're the first generation who can read Mary Shelley's novel in the right way, as a flare flung across time, because we too could create an alternative intelligence,
我们是第一代能够 正确解读玛丽·雪莱小说的人, 如同跨越时空的隔阂 闪烁的一束光, 因为我们也能创造出替代智能,
【164】not out of the body parts from the graveyard using electricity, but out of zeros and ones of code.
但不是通过电力和坟地里的肢体, 而是通过代码中的 0 和 1。
【165】And how is this going to end? Utopia or dystopia?
怎么收尾呢？ 会是乌托邦还是反乌托邦？
【166】It's up to us.
由我们自己决定。
【167】Endings are not set in stone.
结局不是定死的。
【168】We change the story because we are the story.
我们能改变故事的走向, 因为我们就是故事本身。
【169】Now, Marvin Minsky called alternative intelligence our "mind children."
马文·明斯基（Marvin Minsky） 将替代智能 称为我们“思想的孩子”。
【170】Could we as proud parents accept that the new generation that we will create will be smarter than we are?
我们能成为一群自豪的父母, 接受我们创造的下一代 比我们自己更聪明吗？
【171】And could we accept that the new generation we create need not be on a substrate made of meat?
我们能接受我们创造的下一代 不用由肉身承载吗？
【172】Thank you.

【182】JW: Look --
沃尔特斯:你看……
【183】(Laughter) I'm an optimist.
（笑声） 我是个乐观主义者。
【184】I’m a glass-half-full girl.
我看待事物比较乐观。
【185】So I know that we’re running out of time, time is the most precious resource we have, and there isn't much of it.
所以我知道我们要没时间了, 而时间是我们拥有的 最宝贵的资源, 但是没剩多少了。
【186】If we get this right soon, it can really work.
如果我们做成了,那还有救。
【187】If we get it wrong, will be fighting each other with sticks and stones for scraps of food and water on an overheated planet in the ruins of dictator-world.
如果没做成, 我们就得拿着棍棒、石头, 在这过热的星球上, 在这独裁世界的残骸中, 为一点点残羹冷炙大打出手。
【188】But --
但是……
【189】(Laughter) OK. But we could get it right.
（笑声） 好。但是我们能做到。
【190】That’s why I feel we’ve arrived at this moment before, and it might disappear back into space-time.
这就是为什么我感觉 这一幕似曾相识, 它也有可能会随风而去。
【191】Then we'll have to wait billions of years to get here again, which is so dull.
然后我们得再花上几亿年 回到这里,太无趣了。
【192】So let's not fuck it up.
所以还是不要搞砸了。
【193】(Laughter)
（笑声）
【194】(Applause) HW: I've got another question.
（掌声） 沃尔特斯:我还有一个问题。

【196】Don't fuck it up. Don't fuck it up. OK.
别搞砸了。别搞砸了。好的。
【197】JW: That’s the message. The whole TED Talk is: “Don’t fuck it up.” HW: But wait, I have another question.
温特森:我要传达的就是这一点。 沃尔特斯:等等,我还有个问题。
【198】JW: I could have saved 12 minutes, 55 seconds.
温特森:我本来可以 省下 12 分钟 55 秒。
【199】HW: Yeah, well, I'll just be the title that we put online.
沃尔特斯:嗯,那我们 网上的标题就这么写。
【200】Jeanette Winterson: “Don’t fuck it up.” OK. I want to talk about love.
《珍妮特·温特森:别搞砸了》。 好。我想谈一谈关于爱的话题。
【201】So in your memoir, which everybody should read, it is called “Why Be Happy When You Can Be Normal?”
在你的回忆录里, 推荐大家都去读一读, 回忆录题为 《我要快乐,不必正常》。
