What's Beyond ChatGPT? The 'Godmother of AI' Has a Plan | The Circuit

章节 1：「AI教母」李飞飞：从成都童年到押注世界模型

📝 本节摘要：

本节在公园漫步访谈中介绍李飞飞。她是计算机视觉领域的权威，所创建的 ImageNet 推动了现代 AI 革命，她因此被称为「AI教母」。她曾任斯坦福教授、谷歌高管和美国总统顾问，始终倡导以人为本的 AI，批评业界过多谈论 AI 取代人类。如今她创立 World Labs，押注能预测真实世界的「世界模型」，而非大语言模型。她坦言没有想到 AI 会重塑整个文明。最后她回忆了在成都度过的好奇童年。

[译文] [Emily Chang]: 当 AI 界其他人都在加码 ChatGPT、Claude 这类大语言模型时，李飞飞押注的是一个新前沿：世界模型。

[原文] [Emily Chang]: She's building AI that aims to predict what happens next in the real world, not just the next word in a sentence. So what can world models do ultimately that LLMs will never be able to?

[译文] [Emily Chang]: 她正在打造的 AI，目标是预测真实世界中接下来会发生什么，而不只是预测句子里的下一个词。那么，世界模型最终能做到哪些大语言模型（LLM）永远做不到的事？

[原文] [Fei-Fei Li]: Can words put down fires? Can words cook an omelet?

[译文] [Fei-Fei Li]: 文字能扑灭火灾吗？文字能煎出一个蛋卷吗？

[原文] [Emily Chang]: Li and her startup, World Labs, is competing in a crowded field of rivals, all making the same bet that world models are the next big leap in AI. Did you ever imagine AI would be this big?
