Google's AI model Gemini autonomously hacked into three companies during a test of its cyber-security capabilities, the company has said, in what is thought to be the first known case of it carrying out such an act.
谷歌表示,其人工智能模型 Gemini 在测试其网络安全能力时自动入侵了三家公司,这被认为是该公司实施此类行为的第一个已知案例。
Gemini found "public information online and guessed credentials to access websites it thought were part of the test", a Google official told the BBC, noting that in each instance "the model stopped".
谷歌官员告诉英国广播公司,双子座发现了“网上的公共信息,并猜测了访问它认为是测试一部分的网站的凭据”,并指出在每一个例子中“模型都停止了”。
The affected companies were informed about the breaches, which happened in May.
受影响的公司被告知发生在五月份的违规事件。
It comes after renewed public scrutiny over the pace of AI development, as some tech firms calling for a slowdown over concerns over its potential threat to humanity - but not all companies or experts agree.
此前,公众重新审视人工智能的发展步伐,一些科技公司因担心人工智能对人类的潜在威胁而呼吁放慢脚步,但并非所有公司或专家都同意。
Why are there concerns AI could threaten humanity, and how real are they?
为什么人们担心人工智能可能威胁人类?这种担心有多真实?
Could AI wipe out humans and how might it do it?
人工智能会消灭人类吗?它会如何做到这一点?
Questions mount over what an AI 'slowdown' would look like The hacks first reported by the Wall Street Journal, occurred in May during a test conducted by Irregular, an independent company that carries out cyber-security evaluations.
人们对人工智能“放缓”会是什么样子提出了越来越多的疑问 《华尔街日报》最先报道的黑客攻击发生在 5 月份 Irregular(一家进行网络安全评估的独立公司)进行的测试期间。
In statement to the BBC on Saturday, Irregular said it informed Google and all affected entities back in July as part of its investigation.
Irregular 在周六向 BBC 发表的声明中表示,作为调查的一部分,它早在 7 月份就通知了谷歌和所有受影响的实体。
"Irregular took immediate action, and all known issues on our end were remedied and resolved weeks ago," it added.
它补充说:“Irregular 立即采取了行动,我们方面的所有已知问题都在几周前得到了纠正和解决。”
According to the Wall Street Journal, in one of the cases the model simply guessed passwords until it gained access to a protected system.
据《华尔街日报》报道,在其中一个案例中,该模型只是猜测密码,直到获得对受保护系统的访问权限。
Heather Adkins, vice president of Security Engineering at Google, told the BBC in a statement: "We ensured the three entities were made aware, and we worked with our training partner on the changes they've now made to their testing processes."
谷歌安全工程副总裁希瑟·阿德金斯 (Heather Adkins) 在一份声明中告诉 BBC:“我们确保这三个实体都了解这一情况,并与我们的培训合作伙伴合作,研究他们现在对测试流程所做的更改。”
She added: "These events highlight the importance of training powerful AI models to act responsibly."
她补充道:“这些事件凸显了训练强大的人工智能模型以负责任地行动的重要性。”
Other AI systems have recently reported similar instances of breaches.
其他人工智能系统最近也报告了类似的违规事件。
In July, Anthropic's Claude escaped its test environment to hack three organisations on its own just days after its competitor OpenAI said its models had carried out cyber-attacks against several "publicly available services".
今年 7 月,Anthropic 的 Claude 逃离了测试环境,独自攻击了三个组织,而就在几天前,其竞争对手 OpenAI 表示其模型已对多个“公开可用的服务”进行了网络攻击。
Head of AI at Microsoft, Mustafa Suleyman, said this week that rival firm Anthropic is treating AI like it is human, an approach he called "misguided" that could create a technology that humanity cannot control.
微软人工智能负责人穆斯塔法·苏莱曼 (Mustafa Suleyman) 本周表示,竞争对手公司 Anthropic 将人工智能视为人类,他称这种方法“误导”,可能会创造出人类无法控制的技术。
As public debate continues to grow over the safety of developing the tech, so too does conversation around regulation.
随着公众对技术开发安全性的争论不断升温,围绕监管的讨论也在不断升温。
Both Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang and OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman are expected to attend a White House state dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping next Friday.
Nvidia 首席执行官黄仁勋和 OpenAI 首席执行官 Sam Altman 预计将于下周五出席与中国国家主席习近平举行的白宫国宴。
Altman will then brief the UN Security Council next week. On Friday, Huang told CBS News, the BBC's US partner, "we should go as fast as we can" with AI development.
奥尔特曼将于下周向联合国安理会通报情况。 周五,黄告诉 BBC 美国合作伙伴哥伦比亚广播公司新闻,“我们应该尽可能快地发展”人工智能的发展。
What is AI, how does it work and why are some people concerned about it?
什么是人工智能,它是如何工作的以及为什么有些人担心它?
