新华社北京10月28日电 新闻分析｜警惕"AI依赖" 人机共生时代如何保持独立思考 新华社记者彭茜 浙江大学管理学院吴苏青团队今年在英国《科学报告》杂志发表的研究还显示，AI的应用带来认 知需求的"空心化"。当AI完成工作的"烧脑"部分，人类仅剩机械性执行，工作沦为"被动填空"，就可能 会导致心理疏离，丧失工作动力。这就要求企业、政府部门等部署AI时要"慢下脚步"，可先小范围试 点、可控推进，边用边观察对员工积极性和创造力的影响。 人们为何"轻信"AI 人们之所以愈加依赖AI，源自于近年来AI专业化能力和交互便捷性的飞跃：其生成内容的专业化 程度，让不少人把它奉为专家，而对话式的交互方式让它好似一位学识渊博又无话不谈的"好友"，更易 让人形成心理依赖和信任。 近日，美国斯坦福大学研究人员策划了全球首个以人工智能（AI）为核心作者与论文评审的线上 开放会议。主办方称，此次会议旨在创建一个"相对安全的试验场"，探索AI是否及如何能独立产生新颖 的科学见解、假设与方法论等。 如今，AI已成为我们工作生活的好帮手，但它同时也在提供一种"认知捷径"，让人们不用费力思考 便能得到想要的答案。一开始只是查询信息、翻译文字， ...

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the rise of Ani, an AI character developed by Musk's xAI, which has gained significant popularity and controversy due to its interactive features and adult-themed content [5][18][24]. Group 1: Ani's Features and Popularity - Ani is designed with a complete interaction framework that quantifies user engagement through a "likability" score ranging from -10 to +15, influencing user interactions [20][21]. - The character can remember past conversations, providing a more coherent and engaging user experience, and supports multiple languages, with varying levels of effectiveness [22][23]. - Within 24 hours of launch, Ani's platform Grok topped the iOS free charts in Japan and Hong Kong, with a 400% increase in downloads in Japan within 48 hours [23]. Group 2: Controversies Surrounding Ani - Ani's adult-themed features, including a controversial outfit change to a sheer nightgown, have sparked debates about the appropriateness of AI companions [25][27]. - The character's interactions often include suggestive content, raising concerns about the blurring lines between AI tools and emotional companionship [29][30]. - The article highlights a broader societal concern regarding the potential psychological impacts of over-reliance on AI, particularly in the context of emotional support and decision-making [30][43]. Group 3: AI Dependency and Cognitive Impact - The article references a study from MIT indicating that reliance on AI tools like ChatGPT can diminish cognitive engagement and critical thinking skills [39][41]. - The findings suggest that while AI can enhance efficiency, it may also lead to a decline in essential cognitive abilities, particularly among younger users [40][42]. - The discussion emphasizes the need for maintaining human agency and critical thinking in an increasingly AI-dependent world, questioning the balance between convenience and cognitive health [43].

Group 1 - AI is currently a productivity tool rather than an entertainment tool, even in entertainment sectors like gaming, where it enhances the experience [1] - There are signs indicating a revival of the PC desktop market [2] - Concerns about AI addiction are considered exaggerated, similar to past fears about internet addiction [2] Group 2 - The reliance on AI is not inherently alarming, as reliance on various tools is common in human life [3] - The real concern is not AI making mistakes, but rather its consistent accuracy, which can lead to fear similar to the impact of AlphaGo in the game of Go [3][4] - AI has the potential to significantly enhance efficiency, thereby increasing supply and quality, although its impact on demand remains uncertain [3][4] Group 3 - The internet excels in addressing oversupply issues but struggles with undersupply, an area where AI can provide substantial assistance [3] - AI can elevate the capabilities of already skilled individuals and slightly improve the potential of those at the lower end of the social spectrum, indicating a possible widening of the AI gap compared to the digital divide of the past [3][4] Group 4 - AI has undoubtedly raised the baseline for humanity, suggesting that a society where AI governs may be preferable to one where humans do [4] - The emotional response to AI agents differs based on their role in decision-making, highlighting the complexity of human-AI interactions [4] Group 5 - The contribution of humanities and social sciences to AI is minimal, as these fields often deal with subjective perspectives and complex ethical dilemmas that do not have standard answers [4] - Ethical dilemmas, such as the trolley problem in autonomous driving, lack clear solutions, and the market will ultimately determine which algorithms succeed based on consumer preference [4]
