随着硅谷公司之间人工智能技术之战的升温，谷歌联合创始人谢尔盖・布林 (Sergey Brin) 也于近日下场触及软件代码。
外媒 Forbes 指出，自 2019 年以来，谢尔盖・布林基本上没有参与谷歌的日常运作，1 月 24 日提交的代码访问请求似乎是他时隔多年来的第一次。谢尔盖・布林此次提交的请求与谷歌的大型自然语言对话模型 LaMDA 有关；该项目最初于 2021 年宣布，但最近随着其竞争对手 ChatGPT 的大热逐渐获得了更多关注。
具体而言，谢尔盖・布林提交了一份 changelist，旨在对配置文件进行更改以获取权限，从而得到训练 LaMDA 的数据。有数十名工程师提出了 LGTM (looks good to me) 批准请求，其中一些来自该团队以外的工作人员。对此，谷歌没有回应多项置评请求。
Forbes 认为，此举虽是一个小的技术变化，但突显了谷歌对来自 OpenAI 和其他竞争对手的迫在眉睫的威胁的重视程度。谢尔盖・布林和联合创始人拉里 · 佩奇 (Lawrence Edward Page) 自 2019 年以来基本上不在公司，并将将大权交给了桑达尔 · 皮查伊 (Sundar Pichai)。
但纽约时报消息指出，桑达尔 · 皮查伊在月前就已召集了公司创始人审查人工智能战略，以帮助抵御 ChatGPT。还发布了 “code red” 警报，颠覆公司内部几个小组的工作以应对 ChatGPT 带来的威胁。此次谢尔盖・布林的下场，则从另一角度突显了谷歌联合创始人的参与程度。
报道称，谷歌将于今年晚些时候推出一系列新的人工智能产品。该公司正在测试一款名为 “Apprentice Bard” 的聊天机器人，基于 LaMDA 技术；员工可以在其中提出问题并获得类似于 ChatGPT 的详细答案。但其还具备了 ChatGPT 尚没有的功能，即可以提供有关最近发生的事件的回应。
CNBC 称其获得的一份谷歌内部文件表明，“由于 ChatGPT，LaMDA 团队被要求优先处理有关 ChatGPT 的应对。短期内，它优先于其他项目”。并警告一些员工停止参加某些不相关的会议。此外，该公司的另一个产品部门还在测试一种可使用问答形式的新型搜索页面设计。

Google co-founder Sergey Brin recently touched on software code as the battle for artificial intelligence technology among Silicon Valley companies heats up.
According to Forbes, Sergey Brin has been largely absent from day-to-day operations at Google since 2019. And the request for code access submitted on January 24 appears to be his first in years. Sergey Brin’s request relates to LaMDA, Google’s large natural language conversation model. The project was originally announced in 2021. But has been gaining more attention recently with the popularity of its competitor ChatGPT.
Specifically, Sergey Brin submitted a changelist designed to make changes to the profile to gain access to the data used to train LaMDA. There have been dozens of LGTM (looks good to me) approval requests from engineers. Some of whom have come from outside the team. Google did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
Forbes said the move, while a small technological change, underscores how seriously Google is taking the looming threat from OpenAI and other competitors. Sergey Brin and co-founder Lawrence Edward Page have been largely absent from the company since 2019, handing over the REINS to Sundar Pichai.
But according to the New York Times, Sundar Pichai convened the company’s founders a month ago to review an AI strategy to help defend against ChatGPT.
A “code red” alert was issued to disrupt the work of several groups within the company in response to the threat posed by ChatGPT. The fate of Sergey Brin highlights the extent of Google’s co-founders’ involvement in another way.
Google is set to launch a range of new artificial intelligence products later this year, reports say. The company is testing a chatbot called Apprentice Bard, based on LaMDA technology. Employees can ask questions and get ChatgPt-like detailed answers. But it also has a feature that ChatGPT does not yet have: it can provide responses to recent events.
An internal Google document obtained by CNBC stated that “because of ChatGPT, the LaMDA team was asked to prioritize the response to ChatGPT. In the short term, it takes precedence over other projects.” And warned some employees to stop attending certain unrelated meetings. In addition, another product division of the company is testing a new search page design that uses a question-and-answer format.
