"人工智能教父"杰弗里·辛顿警告称，科技巨头"正押注人工智能将取代大量劳动力"，但他补充道，任何对长期科技预 测抱有信心的人都是在自欺欺人。图片来源：GEOFF ROBINS/AFP via Getty Images 人工智能的长期影响是硅谷争论最激烈的话题之一。英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋（Jensen Huang）预测， 所有工作都会发生改变，并催生每周四天工作制。其他科技巨头的预判更为激进：比尔·盖茨（Bill Gates）表示，人类或许很快就无需处理"绝大多数事务"，埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）认为，在"不到20 年内"，绝大多数人甚至将彻底告别工作。 被誉为"人工智能教父"的英国计算机科学家杰弗里·辛顿（Geoffrey Hinton）表示，虽然这些预测听起来 颇为偏激，却绝非空穴来风，甚至极有可能成为现实。他警告称，这场变革可能引发全面经济重组，导 致数百万劳动者被时代淘汰。 "在很多人看来，人工智能极有可能引发大规模失业。"辛顿近期在乔治敦大学与佛蒙特州独立参议员伯 尼·桑德斯（Bernie Sanders）的对话中表示。 "若问及这些机构投入数据中心和芯片的约万亿美元从何而来……其中一个主要资 ...

英伟达（ Nvidia ）首席执行官黄仁勋近日表示，中国在人工智能基础设施方面比美国更有优势，主要 体现在基建速度和能源供给能力两个领域。 尽管美国在 AI 芯片领域依然保有优势，但黄仁勋警告称，中国在大型基础设施项目上的建设速度令人 震惊。 11 月下旬，黄仁勋在与美国战略与国际问题研究中心（ Center for Strategic and International Studie ）主 席约翰 · 汉姆雷的对话中表示： " 如果你想在美国建设一座 AI 超级计算机数据中心，从破土动工到投 入运营大概需要三年时间。而中国只用一个周末就能建好一座医院。 " 黄仁勋强调，中国的基建速度只是他担忧的因素之一，另一个问题在于两国支撑 AI 浪潮的能源供给能 力存在差距。 黄仁勋指出： " 中国的能源总量是美国的两倍，而美国的经济规模却更大。这让我无法理解。 " 他补充说，中国的能源产能仍在持续飞速增长，而美国则相对停滞。 尽管如此，黄仁勋强调，英伟达在芯片技术上"领先中国数代"，能够支撑对相关技术和半导体制造工艺 的需求。 图片来源：Graeme Sloan/Bloomberg via Getty Images ...

然而，据克里希纳测算，仅建设一座1吉瓦的数据中心，按最新美元价值计算，就需要投资约800亿美 元。如果一家企业承诺建设20到30吉瓦的数据中心，其资本支出将高达1.5万亿美元——几乎相当于特 斯拉（Tesla）当前的市值。 他估计，若所有超大规模云厂商合计扩建至约100吉瓦的容量，也需要约8万亿美元的投资，而要覆盖这 笔投入所需的利润规模更是惊人。 克里希纳表示："在我看来，这类投资绝无可能获得回报。因为8万亿美元的资本支出意味着仅支付利息 就需要约8,000亿美元利润支撑。" 此外，由于技术快速迭代，数据中心所依赖的芯片会很快过时。 他强调称："你必须在五年内充分利用所有设备，因为五年之后，你就得把整套设备淘汰，并重新采 购。" 克里希纳补充说，这股投资热潮的部分动机，源于科技巨头竞相成为首个实现通用人工智能（即能够匹 敌或超越人类智能的AI）的企业。 但在他看来，尽管大语言模型的性能持续提升，以现有技术实现通用人工智能的概率"最多只有1%"。 尽管谷歌（Google）、亚马逊（Amazon）等科技巨头高调宣扬其在AI基础设施领域投资数百亿美元， 但IBM首席执行官阿文德·克里希纳却质疑这些投资难以获得预期 ...

对于这位身家高达1540亿美元、始终秉持长线投资和理性消费理财信条的富豪而言，家人的这种行为很 可能让他颇为不悦。玛丽补充道："后来，有一年圣诞节，我们收到一个信封，里面有一封他写的信。 他没有送现金，而是送了价值1万美元的股票——是他新收购的公司的股份，具体来说是可口可乐旗下 的信托基金。他表示，我们可以选择变现，也可以继续持有。" "奥马哈先知"沃伦·巴菲特以卓越的投资才能闻名。因此，当他发现家人每年都将他所赠的数千美元挥 霍一空时，便改变策略，开始赠送股票，或许不足为奇。 过去，每逢佳节，巴菲特家族成员都期待收到1万美元现金。巴菲特前儿媳玛丽·巴菲特（Mary Buffett， 曾与巴菲特的儿子彼得结婚）透露，圣诞节过后，他们一回家，便会挥霍一空。 玛丽在2019年接受ThinkAdvisor采访时表示："我们一回家，就会把钱全部花光！" 或许终于受到公公的启发，玛丽决定持有这些股票："我当时心想'好吧，这只股票的价值肯定不止1万 美元'。于是我一直留着，股价也一直在上涨。" 此后每年，巴菲特持续向家人赠股，有一年送的是富国银行（Wells Fargo）的股票。这无疑是明智之 选：即便在2025年，富国 ...
