这些大公司首席执行官的共识:与孤独为伍
财富FORTUNE· 2025-11-02 13:07
担任首席执行官固然好处多多:商业领袖可以执掌全球最具实力的公司,以行业先驱之名塑造个人传 奇,并享受动辄上亿美元的丰厚薪酬。然而,在攀登企业晋升阶梯的陡峭路途中,许多人直到登顶俯瞰 时,才意识到同行者已寥寥无几。这很可能是一份孤独、形单影只的工作。 从爱彼迎、UPS到百事公司和苹果等一些全球最大公司的领导者们,终于开始公开谈论这份工作带来的 心理代价。事实证明,许多行业开拓者都在与强烈的孤独感作斗争;据一位哈佛医学院教授指出,至少 40%的高管正考虑离职,主要是因为他们精力不济,且在应对日常挑战时感到孤立无援。而这个数字可 能更高:根据2022年的一项德勤(Deloitte)研究,约70%的最高管理层领导者"正在认真考虑辞职,以 寻找更能支持其身心健康的工作"。 布赖恩·切斯基,爱彼迎联合创始人兼首席执行官 图片来源:Left: NurPhoto / Contributor / Getty Images.

10家知名企业大规模裁员,涉及零售、科技行业
财富FORTUNE· 2025-11-01 13:10
图片来源:Getty Images 当前就业市场正经历一段艰难时期。 在广泛的经济不确定性中,一些分析师称企业陷入了"不招人、也不开除人"的停滞状态。这导致许多企 业将新岗位招聘限制在少数特定职位,甚至完全暂停招聘。与此同时,一些大规模的裁员事件持续累积 ——加剧了各行各业员工的焦虑。 一些公司将原因归咎于运营成本上升,这包括唐纳德·特朗普实施的一系列新关税政策以及消费者支出 的转变。其他公司则提到更广泛的企业重组——或者,如亚马逊等知名企业,将资金转向人工智能等领 域的投资。 在这种情况下,"与其说是人工智能直接取代工作岗位,不如说是人工智能对资金的渴求可能导致岗位 流失,"乔治城大学麦克多诺商学院(Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business)的商业管 理教授杰森·施洛策(Jason Schloetzer)说道。他指出,当今各公司普遍存在从雇佣员工向基础设施投 资进行"权衡取舍"的现象。 联邦雇员面临着更多的不确定性,这影响了整个就业市场的工作者情绪。今年初特朗普重返白宫后不 久,联邦工作岗位就被削减了数千个。随着美国政府停摆进入第四周,许多工作 ...

22万亿美元私人资本世界:堪比全球第二大经济体
财富FORTUNE· 2025-10-31 13:10
私人资本宇宙规模已高达22万亿美元,近日美国银行(Bank of America)研究部的顶级分析师揭开了这类资产的面纱:如果将其视为一个国家,其规模堪 称"全球第二大经济体"。随着全球金融格局经历巨变,美国银行研究部最新的主题投资报告显示,私人资本正在重塑公司、投资者和经济体对增长、风险 与控制的思考方式,不仅挑战了公开市场的主导地位,也为创新与风险防范开辟了新前沿。 美国银行将私人资本定义为不在公开市场流通的资产,包括私募股权、私人信贷和实物资产等。其增长速度惊人,自2012年以来规模增长超过一倍,到 2024年已达22万亿美元。这一爆炸性增长主要源于企业从公开市场撤退的趋势。自2000年以来,美国上市公司数量减半,仅剩4000多家,而获得风险资本 支持的私人公司数量却飙升了25倍。如今,初创公司平均保持私有状态长达16年,比十年前延长了三分之一,这反映出企业正广泛转向私人资本,以规避 公开市场的审查和监管。 图片来源:TIMOTHY A.

AI竞争新阶段:“小而专”的企业机遇爆发
财富FORTUNE· 2025-10-30 13:09
Core Insights - The article discusses the shift in the AI industry from a focus on model parameters to a broader competition involving localization, AI sovereignty, and the rights of content creators [1][3]. Group 1: Localization and Niche Models - Smaller, specialized models are finding opportunities to challenge tech giants like OpenAI and Google by focusing on regional languages and cultural nuances [3]. - Arabic language, despite being the fourth most used language on the internet, only accounts for 4% of the training data in existing large models, highlighting a significant gap [3]. - Local companies can leverage high-quality data that is often proprietary and not publicly available, allowing them to address complex issues in Arabic language processing that larger models struggle with [3][4]. Group 2: AI Sovereignty - The concept of "AI sovereignty" is becoming a key agenda for many countries, necessitating a return to the technology itself for solutions [5]. - AI technology can be categorized into layers: chip layer, infrastructure layer, model layer, and intelligent agent layer, with varying degrees of feasibility for achieving sovereignty [6]. - The model layer has become more accessible due to the rise of open-source ecosystems, allowing countries to customize existing models to fit local values and cultural norms [6]. Group 3: Challenges in Chip Sovereignty - The real challenge lies in the chip layer, where high-performance chips are controlled by a few countries, making it difficult for others to achieve full sovereignty [7]. - Countries are encouraged to focus on collaboration in chip technology while concentrating on more achievable goals in the model and application layers [7]. Group 4: Regulation and Investment - Balancing innovation with regulation is crucial for the AI industry's growth, as evidenced by the recent establishment of a unified AI regulatory framework in the U.S. following the Paris AI summit [8]. - Investment opportunities are emerging in deep learning technologies, which are expected to create new industry giants by enabling startups to develop tailored solutions for specific sectors [8]. - The article concludes that the future of AI competition will likely revolve around localization, sovereignty, and fairness, with those who can navigate technological and regulatory challenges emerging as winners [8].

对于像特雷 · 艾德克这样的科学家来说,这一前景既令人振奋,又显得不够全面。艾德克在美国卫生与 公众服务部( U.S. Department of Health and Human Services )下属的健康高级研究计划署( Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health , ARPA-H )负责一个精准肿瘤学项目。 他对《财富》杂志表示:"我们完全有可能在未来八年内,借助 AI 和大数据在抗击癌症方面取得巨大进 展。但单靠 AI 本身解决不了癌症问题。" 真正的瓶颈:数据,而非算力 尽管 Lux 和 Discovery 性能强大,但没有"燃料"也无法学习。艾德克认为,该领域最大的挑战在于整合 多模态数据 —— 从基因序列到组织切片,再到身体影像 —— 这些数据对于预测患者对治疗的反应至关 重要。 他将癌症研究的数据短缺与其他 AI 领域进行了对比。像 ChatGPT 这样的大语言模型( LLM )拥有互 联网数据;像 Waymo 这样的自动驾驶汽车拥有数百万小时的道路行驶记录。相比之下,癌症研究只能 获取医院能够且愿意共享的数据 美国政府正投入 10 亿美元,押 ...
