Google's AI chief has spoken out about what he feels are misconceptions and overstated dangers surrounding intelligent machines.

John Giannandrea took particular aim at 'unreasonable concerns' over the arrival of general artificial intelligence or robots that can think like humans.

John Giannandrea直指因为一般人工智能或机器人可以像人类一样思考而引发的“不合理担忧”。

Although he failed to name tech entrepreneur Elon Musk who has been particular vocal over his fears about the technology many have inferred this connection.

While at Google Mr Giannandrea has helped introduce and develop image recognition for Google Photos and smart reply for Google Inbox. 

当在谷歌任职的时候 Giannandrea先生就已经帮助谷歌相册介绍和开发图像识别功能，为谷歌邮箱开发智能回复功能

He was also a leading figure in Alphabet's self-driving cars scheme using machine learning to navigate streets and obstacles. 

他也是（用机器学习来通过街道与障碍的）谷歌无人驾驶汽车计划的领军人物，

He is now senior vice president for search machine intelligence and the web.

Mr Giannandrea made the comments during an in-depth talk at Tech Crunch's Disrupt SF conference currently being held in San Francisco.

 Giannandrea先生在目前正举办的旧金山技术与危机会议上的深度对话中发表了评论

He told moderator Frederic Lardinois: 'I think there's a huge amount of hype around AI right now.

它告诉主持人Frederic Lardinois：我认为现如今有很多关于AI的虚假宣传“

'There's a lot of people that are unreasonably concerned around the rise of general AI. 

”有许多人不理性的担忧普通AI的发展“

'Machine learning and artificial intelligence are extremely important and will revolutionise our industry. 

”机器学习以及人工智能极其重要并将会引起我们的工业上的变革“

'What we're doing is building tools like the Google search engine and making you more productive.

”我们正在做的是制作工具，就像谷歌搜索引擎一样，使你更高效“

'I'm definitely not worried about the AI apocalypse.

”我一点儿也不担忧AI灾难“

'I just obxt to the hype and soundbites that some people are making.'

Mr Giannandrea has previously compared AI's development to the level of a four-year-old child.

Giannandrea先生先前已经将AI的发展比作一个四岁小孩

During the Disrupt SF event he stated that it has not yet even reached that level.

在旧金山Disrupt活动期间，他说AI还没有达到那个程度

Despite his apparent lack of concern and using only the euphemistic 'some people' Mr Giannandrea's comments are likely to go down badly with Musk.

尽管他毫不担心并且只用委婉的词—“某个人”但Giannandrea先生的评论恐怕很难被马斯克接受

During a question-and-answer session at the summer conference of the National Governors Association in Rhode Island. Tesla CEO Elon Musk warned that regulation of artificial intelligence is needed because it's a 'fundamental risk to the existence of human civilisation.'

在今夏罗德岛全国州长会议的一个问答会议上。特斯拉的CEO埃隆·马斯克警告说关于AI的规章制度是必须的，因为这是“人类文明存在的根本风险”

The billionaire said regulations will stop humanity from being outsmarted by computers or 'deep intelligence in the network' that can start wars by manipulating information.

这个亿万富翁说这些规章制度将防止人类被电脑打败或这“高智商网络”通过操纵信息来发动战争

Governments must have a better understanding of artificial intelligence technology's rapid evolution in order to fully comprehend the risks he said.

为充分理解他说的危险，政府们必须对AI技术的高速变革有更好的了解。

'Once there is awareness people will be extremely afraid as they should be...By the time we are reactive in AI regulation it'll be too late' he added. 

他说，一旦意识到，人们将非常害怕，在我们想到要监管AI时，可能已经太迟了。

Don't believe this guy! Google IS SkyNet! 

不要相信这个家伙！ 谷歌 就是 天网！（天网，电影《终结者》里的人工智能防御系统，最终差点毁灭人类 -- 译者注）

Its not Artificial Intelligence I fear. Its Authentic Stupidity

我害怕不是人工智能，而是真正的蠢。

And what happens when everyone develops their own AI and AI compete against each other? or maybe few Countries have AI and then stop others from developing theirs.

当大家都发展自己的AI然后AI互相竞争时会发生什么？ 或者也许少部分国家拥有AI，然后阻止他人发展。

Silly comment AI will be smarter than us so therefore there is an obvious treat.. and this guy is the head of Google??!

愚蠢的评论，AI会比我们更聪明，所以是一个明显的威胁..这个家伙是Google的负责人！

i watched terminator it must be true!!!!!

我看过终结者，这一定会变成真的!!!!!

You can program a machine to kill only rats for example. All you're talking about is programming the function of profiling. While you can't program malicious intent like possessed by humans you could program extermination by profiling.

例如，你可以编程一台机器来杀死老鼠。 所有你正在谈论的是编程分析功能。 虽然您不能编程出人类拥有的恶意，但您可以通过剖析编程出毁灭程序。

If he is wrong there are no second chances with it. 

如果他错了，（人类）就没有第二次机会（东山再起）了。

It's not. Our world is depending more and more on technology and AI. That scenario is looming around the corner.

不是。 我们的世界越来越依赖于技术和AI。 这种情况即将到来。

When people with a significant vested interest say that there is nothing to worry about it is mostly safe to start worrying.

当有重大既得利益的人说没有什么可担心的时候，开始担心才是最安全的（做法）。

They need to invent AI for voting machines. Only then can we achieve the workers paradise? /sarc

他们需要发明人工智能投票机。只有这样我们才能实现工人的天堂？/讽刺

Musk is a genius but he's crazy. There is not such thing as artificial intelligence any computer/ program is as "smart" as its programmer.

马斯克是个天才，但他疯了。根本不存在所谓的人工智能，任何电脑和程序都和程序员一样“聪明”。

dbt3481 -> Nam2017
Not quite the premise of AI is that they learn in a similar fashion as humans but at a far faster pace.

不完全是，AI的前提是，它们以与人类相似的方式学习，但速度要快得多。

billE -> Nam2017
wrong the computer aquires criteria to write programs on it's own and is delegated authority to make decisions beyond what the delegator fully understands

你错了，计算机要按照既定的标准来给自己编程，并且被授权做出授权人能力之外的事情。

Well craX. I was kinda looking forward to the whole "killer robot" apocalypse. Now what am I going to do with all of these Super Soakers filled with hot tar?

好吧，混蛋们。 我很期待整个“机器人杀手”启示录降临。现在我应该用这些装满热焦油的高压玩具水枪做什么？（Super Soakers 通常是泛指可加压的玩具水枪 -- 译者注）

google is almost the only reason mug shot extortion exists. If Google is a bellwether for the future of tech morality the future looks pretty bleak

谷歌几乎是照片敲诈存在的唯一原因。 如果谷歌是技术道德未来的领军者，未来看起来会相当黯淡。

don't worry about killer robots worry about fast learning algorithms that can learn trillion worth of data in days and have access to unlimited database and start teaching themselves with the acquired knowledge using all sorts of inputs be it web cameras laptop microphones or the most likely search patterns and internet searches.

别再担心机器人杀手了，担心一下快速学习算法，可以在几天内学习数万亿的数据，并可以访问无限数据库，并开始使用从各种输入渠道所获得的知识教导自己认知自己，这些输入可能来自网络摄像头、笔记本电脑、麦克风，或最有可能的是，搜索模式和互联网搜索。
