2020年考研英語(一)真題及答案解析:

Text 3

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 chical questions

to be raised by technologies yet to come.

Today the rapid growth of artificial intelligence (An) 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"Westworld 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 Al aren't at hand. The coming use of

autonomous vehicles. for example poses thorny ethical questions. Human drivers sometime

make split-second decisions. Their reactions may be 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 Al. 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 Al ethics strategy this spring.

On June 7 Google pledged not to"design or deploy Ar" that would cause"overall harm, "or

to develop Al-directed weapons or use Al 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 Al 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.
