近日，Meta 首席 AI 科学家杨立昆（Yann LeCun）在接受《连线》杂志采访时，对萨姆・阿尔特曼掌舵的 OpenAI 进行了猛烈抨击。杨立昆直言，OpenAI 已偏离了最初设定的非盈利道路，且沦为了微软的“合同研究机构”。“现在，他们基本上是微软的合同研究机构，尽管他们有一定的独立性。”
OpenAI 由一群科技领袖和投资者于 2015 年创立，旨在通过研究人工智能来改善人类生活。然而，近年来，OpenAI 的方向和目标引发了争议。有批评者称，OpenAI 过于注重商业和盈利，而忽略了其非盈利的初衷。
对此，杨立昆表示：“OpenAI 的创始人之一伊隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）曾表示，OpenAI 不会成为任何人的“合同研究机构”，但 OpenAI 现在的情况似乎与此相反。”
虽然 OpenAI 仍具有一定的独立性，但杨立昆认为，OpenAI 已经成为微软的“合同研究机构”，这将威胁到其非盈利性质和独立性。
不过，OpenAI 否认了杨立昆的指控。微软方面表示：“我们与 OpenAI 的合作是为了推进人工智能的研究和应用，我们欢迎不同的声音和观点，但我们对 OpenAI 的未来发展充满信心。”
总结起来，OpenAI 是否会成为微软的“合同研究机构”仍是一个未知数。但无论如何，OpenAI 都需要保持其非盈利的初衷，以确保其继续为人类生活带来真正的改变。

OpenAI becomes Microsoft’s “contract research institute”? Yann LeCun strongly criticized OpenAI

新闻内容：
Recently, Yann LeCun, the Chief AI Scientist of Meta, has strongly criticized OpenAI, saying that it has strayed from its original mission of improving human life through artificial intelligence research. LeCun stated that OpenAI has become a “contract research institute” for Microsoft, which risks compromising its non-profit status and independence.
OpenAI, founded in 2015 by a group of tech leaders and investors, aims to study artificial intelligence to improve people’s lives. However, in recent years, there have been controversies over the direction and goals of OpenAI. Some critics argue that OpenAI is too focused on commercialization and profitability, which risks losing its original mission.
In response to these concerns, LeCun said, “Elon Musk, one of the founders of OpenAI, once said that OpenAI would not become anyone’s “contract research institute,” but the current situation of OpenAI seems to be the opposite.”
While OpenAI still has some level of independence, LeCun believes that OpenAI has become Microsoft’s “contract research institute,” which could compromise its non-profit status and independence.
However, OpenAI denies these charges. A Microsoft spokesperson said, “Our cooperation with OpenAI is to advance the research and application of artificial intelligence, and we welcome different voices and perspectives, but we remain confident in OpenAI’s future.”
In conclusion, whether OpenAI will become Microsoft’s “contract research institute” remains to be seen. At any rate, OpenAI must remain true to its non-profit mission to ensure that it continues to bring real changes to people’s lives through artificial intelligence research.
