“The acceleration keeps on happening,” said Ian C. Haydon, a member of Dr. Baker’s team. “It’s incredible.”

Others concur. “It’s amazing what will come out in the next few years,” Dr. Kohli said. He sees A.I. as unlocking life’s deepest secrets and establishing a powerful new basis for curing ills, improving health and lengthening lives.

“Once we decipher and truly understand the language of life,” he said, “it will be magical.”

「這種加速持續發生,」貝克博士團隊成員伊恩·C·海頓 (Ian C. Haydon) 說。 “這太不可思議了。”

其他人也同意。 「未來幾年將會出現令人驚奇的結果,」科利博士說。他看到了 A.I.解開生命最深層的秘密,為治癒疾病、改善健康和延長壽命奠定強大的新基礎。

“一旦我們破解並真正理解生命的語言,”他說,“這將是神奇的。”

How Hallucinatory A.I. Helps Science Dream Up Big Breakthroughs


In the universe of science, however, innovators are finding that A.I. hallucinations can be remarkably useful. The smart machines, it turns out, are dreaming up riots of unrealities that help scientists track cancer, design drugs, invent medical devices, uncover weather phenomena and even win the Nobel Prize.

“The public thinks it’s all bad,” 

“But it’s actually giving scientists new ideas. It’s giving them the chance to explore ideas they might not have thought about otherwise.”

Less visibly, the early stages of discovery can teem with hunches and wild guesswork. “Anything goes” is how Paul Feyerabend

現在,A.I.幻覺正在重振科學的創造性一面。它們加快了科學家和發明家提出新想法並對其進行測試以查看現實是否一致的過程。這是科學方法——只不過是強化而已。曾經需要花費數年時間的事情現在可以在幾天、幾小時和幾分鐘內完成。在某些情況下,加速的探究週期有助於科學家開啟新的領域。




“事情進展很快,”他說。 “即使是以研究蛋白質為生的科學家也不知道事情已經走了多遠。”他的實驗室設計了多少種蛋白質? 「一千萬——都是全新的,」他回答。 “它們不會出現在自然界中。”


他們說,最根本的是,創造力的爆發植根於自然和科學的鐵證事實,而不是人類語言的模糊性或以偏見和謊言而聞名的互聯網的模糊性。




「你需要測試它,」阿南德庫馬爾博士談到人工智慧時說道。結果。 「A.I. 新設計的東西。幻覺需要測試。


使用人工智慧幻覺有助於設計一種新型導管,大幅減少細菌污染-細菌污染是每年導致數百萬例泌尿道感染的全球性禍根。她說團隊的人工智慧。模型設想了數千種導管幾何形狀,然後選擇了最有效的一種。

Now, A.I. hallucinations are reinvigorating the creative side of science. They speed the process by which scientists and inventors dream up new ideas and test them to see if reality concurs. It’s the scientific method — only supercharged. What once took years can now be done in days, hours and minutes. In some cases, the accelerated cycles of inquiry help scientists open new frontiers.


“Things are moving fast,” he said. “Even scientists who do proteins for a living don’t know how far things have come.” How many proteins has his lab designed? “Ten million — all brand-new,” he replied. “They don’t occur in nature.”

Most fundamentally, they said, the creative bursts are rooted in the hard facts of nature and science rather than the ambiguities of human language or the blur of the internet, known for its biases and falsehoods.


“You need to test it,” Dr. Anandkumar said of A.I. results. “Something newly designed by A.I. hallucinations requires testing.”

used A.I. hallucinations to help design a new kind of catheter that greatly reduces bacterial contamination — a global bane that annually causes millions of urinary tract infections. She said the team’s A.I. model dreamed up many thousands of catheter geometries and it then picked one that was the most effective.

AI底層真相 : 如何避免數位滲透的陰影 / 穆吉亞著 ; 江坤山譯 = Code dependent : living in the shadow of AI / Madhumita Murgia
Madhumita Murgia is a writer specialising in artificial intelligence. In February 2023 she was appointed as the first AI Editor of the Financial Times. Wikipedia



A penetrating look at how we're allowing artificial intelligence to infiltrate all parts of society, from policing, welfare, justice and health.



Shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction
Named a best book of the year by The Spectator and Publishers Weekly

A riveting story of what it means to be human in a world changed by artificial intelligence, revealing the perils and inequities of our growing reliance on automated decision-making


On the surface, a British poet, an UberEats courier in Pittsburgh, an Indian doctor, and a Chinese activist in exile have nothing in common. But they are in fact linked by a profound common experience―unexpected encounters with artificial intelligence. In 
Code Dependent, Murgia shows how automated systems are reshaping our lives all over the world, from technology that marks children as future criminals, to an app that is helping to give diagnoses to a remote tribal community.

AI has already infiltrated our day-to-day, through language-generating chatbots like ChatGPT and social media. But it’s also affecting us in more insidious ways. It touches everything from our interpersonal relationships, to our kids’ education, work, finances, public services, and even our human rights.

By highlighting the voices of ordinary people in places far removed from the cozy enclave of Silicon Valley, 
Code Dependent explores the impact of a set of powerful, flawed, and often-exploitative technologies on individuals, communities, and our wider society. Murgia exposes how AI can strip away our collective and individual sense of agency, and shatter our illusion of free will.

The ways in which algorithms and their effects are governed over the coming years will profoundly impact us all. Yet we can’t agree on a common path forward. We cannot decide what preferences and morals we want to encode in these entities―or what controls we may want to impose on them. And thus, we are collectively relinquishing our moral authority to machines.

In 
Code Dependent, Murgia not only sheds light on this chilling phenomenon, but also charts a path of resistance. AI is already changing what it means to be human, in ways large and small, and Murgia reveals what could happen if we fail to reclaim our humanity.

  面對AI新科技,沒有人是局外人

  想成為AI的主人,先了解AI底層的真相

  自從ChatGPT等功能強大的AI工具上市,人人都成為通才,
  無論醫學診斷、刑事司法、社會福利、貸款申請或藝術創作,
  似乎人人都能用AI提升做事效率、甚至讓AI做決策。
  企業家與投資人還聲稱AI最後能解決人類的所有問題。

  只是AI工具真的完美無缺嗎?本書作者穆吉亞探索AI的實際影響,
  驚覺AI已悄然滲透進日常生活,而它最深層的面貌,並沒有那麼亮麗:

  ●AI演算法的背後,是用數百萬人類進行標記
  ●狹隘的資料集導致演算法有偏見
  ●設計不夠嚴謹造成社會不公
  ●權力集中在少數幾間大公司手裡
  ●法律尚未跟上AI發展的腳步

  穆吉亞強調,無腦依賴AI工具不是好事,
  我們應該了解AI的機制,積極參與相關法律的制定。
  只有讓AI的發展更加透明與包容,真正以人為本,
  我們才能成為AI的主人,用AI打造美好的未來。
