O ne of the joys of writing about business is that rare moment when you realise conventions are shifting in front of you. It brings a shiver down the spine. Vaingloriously, you start scribbling down every detail of your surroundings, as if you are drafting the opening lines of a bestseller. It happened to your columnist recently in San Francisco, sitting in the pristine offices of Anthropic, a darling of the artificial-intelligence ( AI ) scene. When Jack Clark, one of Anthropic’s co-founders, drew an analogy between the Baruch Plan, a (failed) effort in 1946 to put the world’s atomic weapons under UN control, and the need for global co-ordination to prevent the proliferation of harmful AI , there was that old familiar tingle. When entrepreneurs compare their creations, even tangentially, to nuclear bombs, it feels like a turning point.
关于商业写作的乐趣是，当您意识到会议在您面前转移时，这是一个难得的时刻。它使脊椎发抖。毫不留情地，您开始散布周围环境的每个细节，就好像您在起草了畅销书的开场白一样。最近，您的专栏作家最近在旧金山，坐在人类智力（AI）场景的众人众人众人的原始办公室中。当人类的共同创始人之一杰克·克拉克（Jack Clark）在Baruch计划之间进行了类比，1946年，（失败的）努力使世界的原子武器受到联合国的控制，并需要进行全球协调以防止有害AI的扩散，这是一个老熟悉的tingle。当企业家将自己的创作（甚至是切向核弹）比较时，感觉就像是一个转折点。
