“作文老師”孫燕姿發文 大談ChatGPT 說的蠻深刻…

之前,我介紹過國內網友利用AI
技術幫孫燕姿老師出新專輯這件事,參見5月8日發布的文章:《午間聽歌:孫燕姿新專輯(未演唱未發布版)》。

關於這件事,昨天也就是5月22日,孫燕姿老師親自回帖了。在她的私人網站MakeMusic 上,孫燕姿老師新發布一篇博文,名為《我的AI》,專門做出回應。

我看後大為震動,沒想到別人專業唱歌,用業餘時間寫一點文章也寫得那麽好。迄今為止,有兩位藝人給我上過作文課。第一位是周慧敏,第二位則是孫燕姿。周慧敏的那篇識於微時就寫得很好,現在孫燕姿這篇《我的AI》還要更好一些。

來《槽邊往事》的許多讀者整天喜歡討論文筆,孫燕姿老師這篇文章是用英文寫成的,那現在怎麽討論文筆呢?我欣賞這篇文章的原因,根本就不在於文筆,而是透過這些文字,我驚奇地意識到孫燕姿作為歌手對於AI
也有相當程度的理解,而且擁有自己的深入思考。同時,在這篇文章裏也能窺見她的胸襟和氣度,一睹她的精神世界,當真是風華絕代。

雖然在孫燕姿老師的博客裏,也提供了一個中文翻譯版本。但因為我很喜歡這篇文字,所以自己也翻譯了一遍。以下是中英文對照版,大家也都可以感受一下:

As my AI voice takes on a life of its own while I despair over my
overhanging stomach and my children’s every damn thing, I can’t
help but want to write something about it.

當我在為自己日漸隆起的肚腩和孩子們的破事而煩惱時,我的人工智能歌聲卻不脛而走,四處流傳,於是我有些話想要一吐而快。

My fans have officially switched sides and accepted that I am
indeed 冷門歌手 while my AI persona is the current hot property. I mean
really, how do you fight with someone who is putting out new albums
in the time span of minutes.

在我的人工智能角色成為目前的熱門人物之時,我的粉絲們已經正式臨陣反正,改旗易幟,接受了我確實是個“冷門歌手”的現實。說真的,你怎麽可能打得過一個在幾分鍾之內就能出一張新專輯的家夥?

Whether it is ChatGPT or AI or whatever name you want to call it,
this “thing” is now capable of mimicking and/or conjuring, 
unique and complicated content by processing a gazillion chunks of
information while piecing and putting together in a most coherent
manner the task being asked at hand. Wait a minute, isn’t that what
humans do? The very task that we have always convinced ourselves;
that the formation of thought or opinion is not replicable by
robots, the very idea that this is beyond their league, is now the
looming thing that will threaten thousands of human conjured jobs.
Legal, medical, accountancy, and currently, singing a song.

不管是叫它ChatGPT 還是 AI
又或者任何其他名字,這個“東西”能夠處理無數段信息,並且以最為連貫的方式把你的案頭工作給組合起來,以此模仿和/或創造獨特而複雜的內容。等一等!這不是就是人類會做的事情麽?我們一直都在說服自己堅信:思考和觀點的形成,是機器人所無法替代的人類獨有任務,這遠遠超出了機器人的能力範圍。但現在步步緊逼的AI
即將威脅到成千上萬個人類工作崗位,諸如法律、醫學、會計等行業,以及現在這篇博客正在討論的—歌唱。

You will protest, well I can tell the difference, there is no
emotion or variance in tone/breath or whatever technical jargon you
can come up with. Sorry to say, I suspect that this would be a very
short term response.

當然你會反駁說:我還是能分辨出真人和AI 歌聲之間的區別,在聲音/氣息(或者任何你能想到的音專業術語)上,AI
沒有任何情緒或者變化。但是對不起,我懷疑這隻會是很短的一段時間而已。

Ironically, in no time at all, no human will be able to rise above
that. No human will be able to have access to this amount of
information AND make the right calls OR make the right mistakes (ok
mayyyybe I’m jumping ahead). This new technology will be able to
churn out what exactly EVERYTHING EVERYONE  needs. As indie or
as warped or as psychotic as you can get, there’s probably a unique
content that could be created just for you. You are not special you
are already predictable and also unfortunately malleable.

諷刺的是,很快就沒有任何人類能夠超越AI。沒有人類能夠在獲取如此之多信息的同時,還能做出正確的決策,又或者是做出正確的錯誤(好吧,也許我的想法有點太過跳躍了)。這項技術能夠為每個人精準地製造出每樣他們所需要的東西。無論你有多獨立、多變態、多瘋狂,AI
都能為你度身定做出獨特的內容。你並沒有那麽特別,因為你已經可以被AI 所預測。不幸的是,你同樣也可以被AI 所塑造。

At this point, I feel like a popcorn eater with the best seat in
the theatre. (Sidenote: Quite possibly in this case no tech is able
to predict what it’s like to be me, except when this is published
then ok it’s free for all). It’s like watching that movie that
changed alot of our lives Everything Everywhere All At Once, except
in this case, I don’t think it will be the idea of love that will
save the day.

在這個意義上來說,我感覺自己正坐在電影院裏最好的位子上吃爆米花的觀眾。(旁注:在這種情況下,很可能沒有任何科技能夠預測我此刻的感受,除非我把這篇博文發布出去,好吧,大家現在隨便看吧)。這感覺就像是在觀看那部改變了我們生活的電影《瞬息全宇宙》,但不同於電影劇情,這一次愛並不能拯救世界。

In this boundless sea of existence, where anything is possible,
where nothing matters, I think it will be purity of thought, that
being exactly who you are will be enough.

在這無邊無際的存在之海裏,一切皆有可能,一切全無所謂。我想,能夠擁有思慮純淨和保持自我,這就已經足夠。

With this I fare thee well.

謹此與君珍重道別。
