One of the puzzles about generative artificial intelligence is why the text it conjures is so long-winded. Why does ChatGPT produce 10 paragraphs when one would do? Another puzzle is how we will all behave when it proliferates. There is a chance that we are about to get a lot more terse. AI is stretching the reality gap between Silicon Valley and the rest of the world. Most of us are not yet firing up chatbots to write emails or carry out research. But tech companies think it is a foregone conclusion that we soon will. If they are right, the way we communicate is about to be transformed.
生成式人工智能(generative AI)令人费解的地方之一是,为什么它生成的文本如此冗长?一段文字就能解释清楚的事情,为什么ChatGPT给出的答案有十个段落?还有一个问题是,当生成式AI逐渐普及,我们所有人将会有什么表现?有一种可能是我们将变得非常言简意赅。
