Episode Description
This episode explores the vision of Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind and recipient of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Hassabis argues that 2026 marks a pivotal turning point in human history, as we enter what he describes as an “AI Renaissance”—an era whose impact could be ten times greater than the Industrial Revolution, unfolding at ten times the speed.
He predicts that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) could be achieved before 2030, while cautioning that today’s AI systems remain in a state of “jagged intelligence,” still lacking robust reasoning and long-term planning capabilities. As the industry enters a phase of consolidation, Hassabis is focused on transforming AI into a scientific engine. Through breakthroughs such as AlphaFold and initiatives like Isomorphic Labs, he aims to reshape drug discovery, while collaborations with the U.S. Department of Energy—such as the “Genesis Project”—seek to accelerate progress in energy innovation.
At the core of his vision is the concept of “Radical Abundance.” As AI drives the marginal cost of healthcare and energy toward near zero, society may begin to transition into a post-scarcity era. To navigate this shift, Hassabis proposes new social mechanisms, including a “Global Abundance Dividend,” and emphasizes that AI governance must extend beyond technologists, requiring international cooperation to ensure these technologies benefit all of humanity.
本集的內容將帶您深入探索 Google DeepMind 執行長、2024 年諾貝爾化學獎得主 戴米斯·哈薩比斯 (Demis Hassabis) 的遠見。哈薩比斯指出 2026 年是人類歷史的轉折點,我們正進入一個「AI 文藝復興」時代,其影響力將是工業革命的十倍,且發展速度快上十倍。
哈薩比斯預測通用人工智能 (AGI) 可能在 2030 年前實現,但警告現今 AI 仍處於「參差不齊的智能」狀態,必須克服基礎推理與長期規劃的缺陷。隨著行業進入「洗牌期」,他致力於將 AI 轉化為科學引擎,透過 AlphaFold 與 Isomorphic Labs 變革藥物研發,並與美國能源部合作「創世紀任務」以加速能源突破。
他最核心的觀點是 「激進豐饒」(Radical Abundance):當 AI 讓醫療與能源成本趨近於零,人類將邁向「後稀缺」社會。為應對此轉變,他提出「全球豐饒紅利」等社會機制,並強調 AI 治理不能僅留給技術專家,需透過國際合作確保這項技術能造福全人類。
