AI领域的狂热情绪正引发一场关于"泡沫"的激烈辩论，而OpenAI董事会主席Bret Taylor对此给出了一个 明确但复杂的答案：我们确实身处泡沫之中，但这并不妨碍AI最终创造巨大的经济价值。 近日，在接受媒体The Verge采访时，Bret Taylor赞同了OpenAI首席执行官Sam Altman先前的观点，承 认"我们正处于AI泡沫中，有人将损失一大笔钱"。 Taylor警告称，与任何颠覆性技术浪潮一样，这一过程将不可避免地产生巨大的赢家，同时也会让许多 人损失惨重。他同时认为，AI将改变经济格局并创造巨大价值，这与市场存在泡沫，是两个可以同时 成立的事实。 Taylor将当前的AI热潮与上世纪90年代末的互联网泡沫进行了直接比较。他指出，尽管当时无数公司在 泡沫破裂中倒下，但从长远来看，"1999年的那些人（对互联网未来的判断）在某种程度上是正确的"。 如今，亚马逊和谷歌等诞生于那个时代的公司已成为全球市值最高的企业之一，证明了泡沫下的远见最 终能够兑现： "实际上，如果你看看世界的GDP，互联网的存在实际上创造了多少或影响了互联网？有人 可能会说，1999年的所有人都是对的。它对几乎所有指标都 ...
