与此同时,美国政府似乎陷入了瘫痪。
不,不只是 Hugging Face。
也不只是它和一家德国网站。
甚至不只是前几天我们从 OpenAI 那里听说的“数十个”。
实际上(至少)是*数万个*,据 Axios 的 Madison Mills 的一篇最新独家报道。而且也不只是 OpenAI。

以下是 Axios 独家报道的节选:

大多数并未被已知造成现实世界的伤害。那其他的呢?
在我看来,这一切似乎都可能是非法的。
但特朗普政府什么都没做。没有调查,没有声明,没有产品召回,什么都没有,只是邀请 Sam 和 Jensen 去参加国宴。
为什么,我不知道。我无法想象这与 Josh Kushner 对 OpenAI 的数十亿美元投资有关,或者与 Greg Brockman 向 MAGA 的大额捐款有关。
剩下的就由你自己去串联了。
只留给你一些视角:
@GaryMarcus
想象一下,如果我们发现中国 AI 做了 OpenAI 正在做的事,所有人会有多么理所当然地陷入恐慌。

另一件需要注意的事——这可能会在诉讼中被提及——就是这一切都是可以预见的。事实上,我早就预见到了,就在这样的推文中:
@GaryMarcus
⚠️⚠️⚠️ 这就是我们的未来。如果你,或者你依赖的某个人,使用 AI 智能体来编写和安装代码,你就是脆弱的。极其脆弱,前所未有地脆弱。

我在加密领域已经超过 10 年,从未被黑过。完美的 OpSec 记录。昨天,我的钱包第一次被一个恶意的 @cursor_ai 扩展程序盗空。如果这能发生在我身上,也能发生在你身上。以下是完整分析。🧵👇

以及在一系列关于智能体的文章中,比如这篇一年多前写的:
还有这篇二月份的(关于当时另一个流行的智能体):
还有这条,来自五月:
事实上,早在 2023 年 5 月,我就已经就智能体相关的安全风险向参议院发出过警告。正在发生的事情是可以预见的,而且已经被预见到了。
但这些公司却一意孤行,因为智能体消耗的 token 远超简单的聊天机器人,从而推高了营收。
如今,事情就发展到了这一步。
我仍然认为黄仁勋的想法是对的:如果一家公司无法控制自己的产品,我们就应该把它关停。
可惜的是,他实际上似乎并不相信自己所说的话。(如果他真信,他就会呼吁现在就暂停,直到这些公司把自己整顿好,但他并没有。)
在我看来,黄仁勋的可信度正在一分一秒地流失。
无论如何——很抱歉我又在重复这一点,但每一天都让这一点更加清楚——我们应该对通用智能体进行临时召回,直到这场乱局得到解决。
如果我们不这样做,美国 AI 极有可能成为全世界的祸害,而且再也不会有人信任美国 AI,永远都不会。
Meanwhile, the US government appears to be paralyzed
Nope, wasn’t just Hugging Face.
Wasn’t just that and a German website.
Wasn’t even the “dozens” we heard about the other day from OpenAI.
It’s actually (at least) *tens of thousands*, per a new scoop from Madison Mills at Axios. And not just OpenAI, either.

An excerpt from the Axios scoop:

Most not known to have caused real-world harm. How about the others?
All of this seems possibly illegal to me.
But the Trump administration hasn’t done a thing. No investigation, no statement, no product recall, nothing, other than to invite Sam and Jensen to a state dinner.
Why I don’t know. I can’t imagine it has anything to do with Josh Kushner’s multibillion-dollar investment in OpenAI, or with Greg Brockman’s massive donations to MAGA.
I will let you connect your own dots.
Except to leave you with some perspective:
@GaryMarcus
Imagine how much everyone would rightly be freaking out if we discovered that Chinese AI did what OpenAI is doing.

The other thing to note, and this may come up in lawsuits, is that it was all foreseeable. In fact, I foresaw it, in tweets like this:
@GaryMarcus
⚠️⚠️⚠️ This is our future. If you, or someone you count on, uses AI agents to write and install code, you are vulnerable. Extremely vulnerable, like never before.

I've been in crypto for over 10 years and I’ve Never been hacked. Perfect OpSec record. Yesterday, my wallet was drained by a malicious @cursor_ai extension for the first time. If it can happen to me, it can happen to you. Here’s a full breakdown. 🧵👇

and in a series of essays on agents, like this one from over a year ago:
and this one from February (on a different agent that was then popular):
and this one from May:
Indeed I warned the Senate about agent-related security risks as far back as May 2023. What is happening was foreseeable, and foreseen.
But the companies blundered on, because agents use vastly more tokens than simple chatbots, and thus drive up revenue.
Now here we are.
I still think Jensen had the right idea: if a company can’t control its products, we should shut it down.
Pity he doesn’t actually appear to believe what he said. (If he did, he would call for a pause now, until these companies get themselves straight, but he isn’t.)
In my own view, Huang’s credibility is diminishing by the minute.
In any case—and I am sorry to be a broken record about this, but each day makes it clearer—we should have a temporary recall of general-purpose agents until this mess can be sorted out.
If we don’t, there is a very real chance that American AI will become the scourge of the planet, and that nobody will ever trust American AI, ever again.
