ChatGPT的惊艳与诡异
ChatGPT is, quite simply, the best artificial intelligence chatbot ever released to the general public. It was built by OpenAI, the San Francisco A.I. company that is also responsible for tools like GPT-3 and DALL-E 2, the breakthrough image generator that came out this year.
简单来说，在所有面向公众发布的人工智能聊天机器人中，ChatGPT是最棒的。它是由旧金山人工智能公司OpenAI设计开发，这家公司还开发过像GPT-3这样的AI工具，今年还推出了突破性图像生成器DALL-E 2。
For most of the past decade, A.I. chatbots have been terrible — impressive only if you cherry-pick the bot's best responses and throw out the rest.
在过去十年的大部分时间里，AI聊天机器人表现都很糟糕；只有把机器人的最佳对答挑选出来，剔除其余部分，可能才会有些让人刮目相看之处。
But ChatGPT feels different. Smarter. Weirder. More flexible. It can write jokes, working computer code and college-level essays. It can also guess at medical diagnoses, create text-based Harry Potter games and explain scientific concepts at multiple levels of difficulty.
但ChatGPT给人的感觉就不太一样。它更聪明、更怪异，也更灵活。它会写笑话、写代码，还能写出大学水平的论文。而且，它还能猜测可能的医疗诊断结果，创建基于文本的哈利·波特游戏，并对科学概念给出多种不同难度水平的解释。
ChatGPT isn't perfect, by any means. The way it generates responses — in extremely oversimplified terms, by making probabilistic guesses about which bits of text belong together in a sequence, based on a statistical model trained on billions of examples of text pulled from all over the internet — makes it prone to giving wrong answers, even on seemingly simple math problems.
不过无论如何，ChatGPT都还不是完美的。用最简单的话来说，它的响应生成机制是这样的：从全网提取数十亿文本样本，加以训练，形成一个统计模型，再基于此模型，对哪些文本片段属于一个序列进行概率猜测。而这个机制让它很容易给出错误的答案，即使是在看起来很简单的数学问题上也会出错。
There are also plenty of things ChatGPT won't do, as a matter of principle. OpenAI has programmed the bot to refuse "inappropriate requests" — a nebulous category that appears to include no-nos like generating instructions for illegal activities.
此外，还有一些事是ChatGPT基于原则而不会去做的。OpenAI已将拒绝“不恰当的请求”写进了它的程序，“不恰当的请求”是一个有些模糊的类别，似乎涵盖了像生成非法活动指令这样的禁忌。
Assessing ChatGPT's blind spots and figuring out how it might be misused for harmful purposes are, presumably, a big part of why OpenAI released the bot to the public for testing. Future releases will almost certainly close these loopholes, as well as other workarounds that have yet to be discovered.
据推测，OpenAI向公众发布机器人进行测试的原因，很大程度上就是评估ChatGPT的盲点，并找出它被滥用以达成有害目的的风险漏洞。几乎可以肯定的是，未来的版本会填补上这些漏洞，并找到尚未被发现的替代方案。
