<p>Artificial Intelligence already rules the world. It has for hundreds of years. The greatest trick AI ever pulled was convincing you that it didn’t already exist.</p>
<p> 一个 rtificial智能已经统治世界。 它已经有数百年的历史了。 AI有史以来最大的技巧就是说服您它不存在。 </p>
<p>Of course it does.</p>
<p> 当然可以。 </p>
<p>My country was colonized by AI, 400 years ago. Today, AI is thriving while Americans die. Corporations won’t invent AI in the distant future. <strong>Corporations are AI</strong> <strong>right now</strong>, and have been for years.</p>
<p> 400年前,我国被AI殖民。 今天,在美国人死亡的同时,人工智能正在蓬勃发展。 公司不会在不久的将来发明人工智能。 <strong>公司</strong> <strong>现在</strong> <strong>是AI</strong> ,并且已经使用了很多年。 </p>

<p>When Mitt Romney said “corporations are people, my friend” people laughed at him. But he was right. <strong>Corporations are legal persons</strong>. This is not an analogy or a metaphor but a legal fact. Corporate personhood has been accepted since ancient India, through Rome, to the present day.</p>
<p> 当罗姆尼(Mitt Romney)说“公司是人,我的朋友”时,人们嘲笑他。 但是他是对的。 <strong>公司是法人</strong> 。 这不是类比或隐喻,而是法律事实。 自古印度到罗马,企业法人地位一直被接受。 </p>
<p>Corporations can buy property, enter contracts, and are treated generally the same as ‘natural’ persons in the eyes of the law. They even have the right to free speech, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_United_v._FEC#:~:text=The%20Court%20held%20that%20the,labor%20unions%2C%20and%20other%20associations." rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">including influencing elections</a>. Corporations are artificial persons. Therefore (since we assume people are intelligent), they are artificially intelligent. Corporations are AI.</p>
<p> 公司可以购买财产,订立合同,并且在法律上通常被视为与“自然人”相同。 他们甚至有权发表言论自由, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_United_v._FEC#:~:text=The%20Court%20held%20that%20the,labor%20unions%2C%20and%20other%20associations." rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">包括影响选举</a> 。 公司是自然人。 因此(因为我们假设人们是聪明的),所以他们是人工智能的。 公司就是人工智能。 </p>
<h1> 人是计算机 <span style="font-weight: bold;">(</span>Human beings are computers<span style="font-weight: bold;">)</span></h1>
<p>Wait, you’ll say, but AI is computers. OK. Then what’s a computer? Until the late 1960s, a computer was a human being.</p>
<p> 等一下,您会说,但AI是计算机。 好。 那是什么电脑呢? 直到1960年代后期,计算机才是人类。 </p>
<p>The word computer has been a <em>job description</em> since the 1600s. Computers were a bunch of boys in a room doing astronomical computations. Or black women, like Katherine Johnson at proto-NASA in 1952.</p>
<p> 自1600年代以来,计算机一词一直是<em>工作描述</em> 。 电脑是一群男孩在房间里进行天文计算。 或者说黑人女性,例如1952年美国国家航空航天局(NASA)的凯瑟琳·约翰逊(Katherine Johnson)。 </p>

<pre class="blockcode"><code class="blockcode">“I heard that Langley was looking for black women computers,” she said.“We wrote our own textbook, because there was no other text about space,” she says. “We just started from what we knew. We had to go back to geometry and figure all of this stuff out. Inasmuch as I was in at the beginning, I was one of those lucky people.”That luck came in large part because she was no stranger to geometry. It was only natural that she calculate the trajectory of Alan Shepard’s 1961 trip into space, America’s first.

<p>The computers that first sent men to space were not machines. They were black women.</p>
<p> 首先将人们送往太空的计算机不是机器。 他们是黑人妇女。 </p>
