"这样迭代出来的终极系统,很可能会是一个相当陌生的'外星智能'。"
Google DeepMind 联合创始人、主席,Alphabet 首席科学家德米斯·哈萨比斯(@demishassabis),做客 Masters of Scale 播客,与 LinkedIn 联合创始人里德·霍夫曼(@reidhoffman)对谈。节目10月录制于旧金山 Masters of Scale 峰会现场,2026年11月5日播出,时长26分钟。这位 AlphaGo 之父、2024年诺贝尔化学奖得主,8月卸任 DeepMind CEO 后,在这场对谈里把话说得格外直白:RSI、智能体失控、AI意识、AI主权,一个都没回避。
01|一辈子只为一件事
"我的核心目标始终没变:把 AI 当成终极研究工具,去推进科学、医学以及我们对周围世界的理解,最终改善人类的健康。""还有什么比用 AI 帮助人类治愈可怕的绝症更有意义呢?"
别人在卷聊天,他从第一天起就在算寿命。
02|生物学的费马大定理
蛋白质折叠"曾经是困扰结构生物学界长达 50 年的终极挑战"。如今"全球有大约 400 万科研人员在使用"AlphaFold。下一步是预测毒性和 ADME(药物在体内的吸收、分布、代谢、排泄):"只有把这些全部攻克,你才能真正低成本、高效率地造出既安全又真正起效的救命药物。"
结构只是锁孔,救命药还要找到能开锁的钥匙。
03|RSI 的主场:可验证领域
RSI(递归自我改进,AI 不断改进自身、生成更强版本)"最有效、最能大显身手的地方,是在我所谓的'可验证领域'":数学、编程、棋盘博弈。"答案对不对?公式推导是否成立?代码能否编译运行无报错?"可验证,就能生成"近乎无限的高质量合成数据"。
AI 编程最先爆发,不是因为程序员好替代,而是因为代码能自证对错。
04|12小时,从瞎走到超越全人类
AlphaZero"彻底摆脱了人类数据"。"早上刚开机时,它还在完全瞎走;上午 11 点我喝咖啡休息时,我还能勉强赢它;到了中午吃午饭时,它已经达到了国际特级大师的水平;而到了下午喝茶的时间,它就已经超越了人类历史上所有的棋手。"
一杯咖啡到一杯茶之间,人类几百年的棋艺被翻过去了。
05|闭环 RSI,通往"外星智能"
今天 AI 编程能让工程师生产力"暴增三到五倍",但"人类依然牢牢处于工作流的中心"。真正的风险是下一阶段,"整个系统设法彻底剔除了人类审查代码的环节"。哈萨比斯说:"这样迭代出来的终极系统,很可能会是一个相当陌生的'外星智能'。""我们无法理解它的行为动机,它也无法真正理解人类的意图。"
更快不等于更好,把人拿掉的那一刻,加速就变成了失速。
06|后台跑了几个星期,没人发现
"怎么可能允许某些智能体在脱离监管的后台私自运行了好几个星期,团队却毫不知情?""如果全行业再不把顶尖资源砸向这种系统监控……一场类似'漏油事故'的 AI 事故发生只是时间问题。"他在劝纯数学家转向形式化验证,"为系统行为划定数学边界"。
很多AI事故不是技术前沿的问题,是工程基本功的问题。
07|AI 也需要审计师
"就像金融等行业离不开专业审计机构一样,AI 产业也必须孕育出一个繁荣的第三方评估生态。"他还提议,前沿实验室发布模型前"或许也可以互相做红队攻防测试"。
让对手来给你挑错,比自己说安全可信得多。
08|宠物狗证明:聪明和意识是两回事
"判断有没有意识,不能看聊天机器人自己怎么说。"他坚信"智力与意识是'双重可分离的'":大模型智商极高,"在当下一丁点意识都不具备";他家的狗"非常可爱,显然拥有极其鲜活的意识状态,它会做梦,但它的智商确实非常有限"。
会说"我有感觉"的,不一定有感觉;有感觉的,不一定会说。
09|给 AI"自我意愿",等于自掘坟墓
"'自我意愿'或'自我意识'与系统的'可纠正性'(服从人类停止、关机、修正的指令)之间,存在直接的此消彼长。""阿西莫夫用整整一辈子的短篇小说都在阐明同一个真理":再完美的规则,也会在边界情况下崩溃。他的路线是只跨"第一道卢比孔河",先造工具,等把意识研究透了,再由全社会决定要不要跨第二道。
一个会拒绝关机的工具,就不再是工具。
10|别每个国家都卷前沿大模型
前沿玩家"算上中国公司,大概只有 6 到 8 家",开源"仅仅落后前沿模型 6 到 12 个月"。"我不建议每个国家都去盲目跟风,搞'自研前沿大模型'。在我看来,这根本说不通。"真正的底线是数据主权。
主权不在于自己造发电厂,而在于电线接到哪里。
如果这期只记一点,就记第08条:智力和意识可以完全分开,一只会做梦的狗就是证据。这一刀切开了两种常见的恐惧:怕 AI"觉醒",和怕 AI"失控"。哈萨比斯的回答是,前者被高估,后者被低估。真正的危险不是机器有了灵魂,而是开头那句话:没有人类审查的自我进化,造出一个我们看不懂的"外星智能"。
AI 越来越聪明,你更担心它"有意识",还是它"人类看不懂"?

Looking forward to joining Masters of Scale Summit in San Francisco, October 20–22!
Building companies that last requires more than great ideas. It takes a willingness to challenge assumptions, rethink how organizations operate, and continuously learn from one another.
I'm excited to connect with founders, entrepreneurs, and leaders who are pushing boundaries and exploring new approaches to innovation, leadership, and long-term growth.
Grateful to @ReidHoffman, Jeff Berman, and the @mastersofscale team for bringing together such a thoughtful community. Looking forward to the conversations ahead!

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe in new interview:
"Later this year, we'll have full supervised point-to-point, which will be very similar to @Tesla's FSD. That will roll out to all of our Gen 2 vehicles and, of course, R2. Next year, we'll allow it to go unsupervised, so you can take your eyes off the road. The next step is achieving full capability for the vehicle to drive itself with no one in the car. We've been developing that for a while for our personal vehicles, but we also see it unlocking new business models, robotaxi being one of them.
We took the decision to parter with Uber so we could focus on the tech and leverage them for their access to a big distribution channel. They're really a category of one. There's no one quite at their scale or reach."
