The best response to AI slop, infinite advice, and online noise is from Robin Williams对AI垃圾、无尽建议和网络噪音的最佳回应来自罗宾·威廉姆斯
There's a moment in the movie Good Will Hunting which perfectly summarizes all the problems with AI slop and online noise and infinite advice content.电影《心灵捕手》中有一个瞬间完美概括了AI垃圾、网络噪音和无限建议内容的所有问题。
Sean (played by Robin Williams) is sitting next to Will (Matt Damon) on a bench in Boston Public Garden. I live here, so I know it well. The area is impossibly green, surrounded by willow trees and a sparkling pond and parents chasing their kids who are chasing some mallards who are chasing their ducklings.肖恩（罗宾·威廉姆斯饰）坐在波士顿公共花园的长椅上，旁边是威尔（马特·达蒙饰）。我住在这里，所以很熟悉。那片区域绿得不可思议，周围环绕着柳树和波光粼粼的池塘，还有追着孩子跑的父母，孩子们追着一些野鸭，野鸭又追着它们的小鸭。
If you pause the movie scene at just the right moment, you can actually see the exact spot my wife and I took our wedding photos as we tortured 14 of our closest friends in 96-degree humidity one July afternoon.如果你在电影场景中恰到好处地暂停，实际上可以看到我和妻子拍婚纱照的确切地点，那是七月一个下午，我们在96%的湿度下折磨了14位最亲密的朋友。
In this particular moment of the film, Robin Williams delivers a legendary speech. 在电影的这一刻，罗宾·威廉姆斯发表了一段传奇性的演讲。
The entire thing is worth watching (allow for five minutes of sitting still afterwards), but in addition to the video, I’ve placed the transcript below with my own emphasis added.整段都值得观看（之后请静坐五分钟），但除了视频，我在下面附上了台词，并加上了我自己的重点。
If I asked you about art, you’d probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo? You know a lot about him. Life’s work, political aspirations, him and the pope, sexual orientation, the whole works, right? But I bet you can’t tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel. You’ve never actually stood there and looked up at that beautiful ceiling. Seen that.如果我问你关于艺术，你可能会给我所有艺术书籍的概要。米开朗基罗？你知道很多。生平、政治抱负、他和教皇、性取向，全部，对吧？但我打赌你无法告诉我西斯廷教堂里是什么味道。你从未真正站在那里仰望那美丽的天花板。看过它。
If I asked you about women, you’d probably give me a syllabus of your personal favorites. You may have even been laid a few times. But you can’t tell me what it feels like to wake up next to a woman and feel truly happy.如果我问你关于女人，你可能会给我一份你个人偏好的清单。你甚至可能有过几次性经历。但你无法告诉我醒来时身边躺着一个女人并感到真正快乐是什么感觉。
You’re a tough kid. I ask you about war, and you’d probably, uh, throw Shakespeare at me, right? “Once more into the breach, dear friends.” But you’ve never been near one. You’ve never held your best friend’s head in your lap and watched him gasp his last breath, looking to you for help.你是个坚强的孩子。我问你关于战争，你可能会用莎士比亚来回应我，对吧？“再次冲进缺口，亲爱的朋友们。”但你从未靠近过战争。你从未把最好朋友的头抱在膝上，看着他喘着最后一口气，向你求助。
And if I asked you about love you probably quote me a sonnet. But you’ve never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable. Known someone could level you with her eyes. Feeling like God put an angel on earth just for you, who could rescue you from the depths of hell.如果我问你关于爱，你可能会引用一首十四行诗。但你从未看着一个女人并完全脆弱。知道有人能用眼神击垮你。感觉上帝为你派来了一个天使，能将你从地狱深处拯救出来。
And you wouldn’t know what it’s like to be her angel and to have that love for her to be there forever. Through anything. Through cancer. You wouldn’t know about sleeping sitting up in a hospital room for two months holding her hand because the doctors could see in your eyes that the term "visiting hours" doesn't apply to you.而且你不会知道成为她的天使并永远拥有那份爱是什么感觉。经历一切。经历癌症。你不会知道在医院病房里坐起来睡两个月，握着她的手，因为医生能从你的眼神中看出“探视时间”这个词对你并不适用。
You don’t know about real loss, because that only occurs when you love something more than you love yourself. I doubt you’ve ever dared to love anybody that much.你不了解真正的失去，因为那只有在你爱某样东西胜过爱自己时才会发生。我怀疑你从未敢爱任何人到那种程度。
I look at you; I don’t see an intelligent, confident man; I see a cocky, scared shitless kid. But you’re a genius, Will. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you presume to know everything about me because you saw a painting of mine and you ripped my fuckin’ life apart.我看着你；我没有看到一个聪明、自信的男人；我看到一个傲慢、吓得要死的小子。但你是天才，威尔。没人否认这一点。没人能完全理解你的深度。但你自以为了解我的一切，因为你看了我的一幅画，然后你把我该死的生活撕碎了。
You’re an orphan right? Do you think I’d know the first thing about how hard your life has been, how you feel, who you are because I read Oliver Twist? Does that encapsulate you?你是孤儿，对吧？你以为我读了《雾都孤儿》就能知道你的生活有多艰难、你的感受、你是谁吗？那能概括你吗？
Personally, I don’t give a shit about all that, because you know what? I can’t learn anything from you I can’t read in some fuckin’ book. Unless you wanna talk about you. Who you are. And I’m fascinated. I’m in. But you don’t wanna do that, do you, sport? You’re terrified of what you might say.就我个人而言，我根本不在乎这些，因为你知道吗？我无法从你身上学到任何我在某本该死的书里读不到的东西。除非你想谈谈你自己。你是谁。我很着迷。我加入。但你不想那样做，对吧，伙计？你害怕自己可能会说的话。
Your move, chief.该你了，老大。

Okay, I'm ready to talk about it.好了，我准备好谈这个了。
Without saying it, he's saying it. There's a difference.他没有说出来，但他表达了。这有区别。
There's a difference between expertise and wisdom, between theory and experience, between knowing and living. Will has the first in spades. He's the human equivalent of ChatGPT, that's for sure. That gives him a smug attitude that because he's read the books and knows the theories, he's smart and capable and good. But Sean has something Will lacks. Experience. He's actually lived all those things firsthand. War, love, sickness, loss, hopes, dreams, failures, successes. Meanwhile, Will has never been outside Boston, and he's scared to let himself get close to anyone enough to get hurt.专业知识和智慧之间、理论和经验之间、知道和生活之间是有区别的。威尔拥有前者。他是人类版的ChatGPT，这一点毫无疑问。这让他有一种自鸣得意的态度，因为他读过书、知道理论，所以他聪明、能干、优秀。但肖恩拥有威尔所缺乏的东西：经验。他亲身经历了所有那些事情：战争、爱情、疾病、失去、希望、梦想、失败、成功。与此同时，威尔从未离开过波士顿，他害怕让自己接近任何人到可能受伤的程度。
That's this moment, summed up. That's what WE do as humans and why YOU matter right now, arguably more than ever.这就是这个时刻的总结。这就是我们作为人类所做的，也是为什么你现在很重要，可能比以往任何时候都重要。
AI has read the internet. It can't read the room. It hasn't lived a life.AI读遍了互联网。它无法读懂气氛。它没有活过。
It knows. It does not feel nor experience. Because it does not live.它知道。它不感受也不体验。因为它不生活。
But you do, and right now, there are endless voices convincing you to stop living, mostly so they can sell you their "secrets" to success or their "magic" tools which profess to know the answers you couldn't possibly know yourself.但你生活着，而现在，有无数声音在说服你停止生活，主要是为了向你推销他们成功的“秘诀”或“神奇”工具，这些工具声称知道你自己不可能知道的答案。
We've reached a dangerous moment. This moment threatens to convince too many of us that our lived experiences do not matter. I see it often. An artist will claim something like, "AI has never fallen in love. It has never failed then persisted, with scar tissue emerging and dreams still in tact." Then people roll their eyes. I get it. I hear it. I know it feels squishy and easy to dismiss.我们已经到了一个危险的时刻。这个时刻有可能让太多人相信我们的亲身经历并不重要。我经常看到这种情况。一位艺术家会说：“AI从未坠入爱河。它从未失败后坚持，带着伤疤和依然完整的梦想。”然后人们翻白眼。我明白。我听到了。我知道这感觉模糊且容易被忽视。
Like a gnat buzzing your ear on a park bench.就像公园长椅上嗡嗡作响的蚊子。
So let's make it more concrete, shall we?所以让我们更具体一点，好吗？
There is a very real difference between reading about war and being in war. Can we agree? 阅读战争和身处战争之间有着非常真实的区别。我们能同意吗？
Reading about love and being in love are fundamentally different things. Yes? 阅读爱情和坠入爱河是根本不同的事情。对吗？
Reading Oliver Twist [giant "Not Equal To" symbol] being an orphan.阅读《雾都孤儿》[巨大的“不等于”符号] 成为孤儿。
Knowing and living are different. And right now, the mere idea of "knowing" is winning out, when it's hilariously insufficient to do anything effective or meaningful or good. The internet and many voices using it would have us convinced that because there's so much to know and because someone else knows more and because a software tool can tell you things it "knows," then all of that should cause you to sit down, shut up, stop feeling confident in what you've done or seen or felt. Because what's your life in the face of infinite knowledge?知道和生活是不同的。而现在，“知道”这个概念正在胜出，尽管它可笑地不足以做任何有效、有意义或好的事情。互联网和许多使用它的声音会让我们相信，因为有太多东西要知道，因为别人知道得更多，因为一个软件工具可以告诉你它“知道”的事情，那么所有这些都应该让你坐下、闭嘴、停止对自己所做、所见或所感的事情感到自信。因为你的生活在无限知识面前算什么？
Turns out, everything.结果发现，是一切。
Okay fine, we're still too theoretical and artsy fartsy for some. I hate it, but I get it. Set aside Sean's lines and look at Robin Williams's performance. Step out of the story and examine the acting. Robin Williams was given a script. Any other actor could have been handed that script, but ZERO other actors would have performed it like that.好吧，对某些人来说，我们还是太理论化和艺术化了。我讨厌这样，但我理解。把肖恩的台词放在一边，看看罗宾·威廉姆斯的表演。跳出故事，审视演技。罗宾·威廉姆斯拿到了剧本。任何其他演员都可以拿到那个剧本，但零个其他演员会像那样表演。
The script has all the words, but he brought the words to life. What's more, he did so by drawing on his own life. That's how artists function. That's why they can produce things that shock and astound and terrify and bewitch people (h/t to Bourdain for that line). Actors and other artists make choices for how to embody and convey the emotions of the thing, not just "correctly" arrange information for dissemination.剧本有所有台词，但他赋予了台词生命。更重要的是，他通过借鉴自己的生活做到了这一点。这就是艺术家的运作方式。这就是为什么他们能创作出令人震惊、惊叹、恐惧和着迷的作品（感谢波登的那句话）。演员和其他艺术家选择如何体现和传达事物的情感，而不仅仅是“正确”地安排信息以供传播。
I've heard it said that scientific discovery would happen regardless of who does it. Science is the search for truth about how the world works. Given enough time and resources, Scientist #2 would have discovered the same truth that Scientist #1 discovered. 我听说过，科学发现无论由谁来做都会发生。科学是寻找关于世界如何运作的真理。只要有足够的时间和资源，科学家2号会发现与科学家1号相同的真理。
Art is different.艺术是不同的。
No two artists would produce the same exact thing. Given enough time and resources, no two actors would have independently landed on the same exact creation, nor even the same subtle element or moment in that scene or piece or project. Because it's not about the search for external truth. It's about the synthesis of that truth into meaning. It's all internal. And zero humans have lived the same lives beat-for-beat.没有两个艺术家会创作出完全相同的东西。只要有足够的时间和资源，没有两个演员会独立地得出完全相同的创作，甚至在同一场景、作品或项目中的微妙元素或时刻也不会相同。因为这不是寻找外部真理。而是将真理综合成意义。一切都是内在的。没有两个人类的生活是一模一样的。
That shit matters in our work. I don't care if you write blog posts for a Fortune 500, host a podcast about HR, write books about storytelling, or paint in your garage. It's all art. Because art is about making sense of human feelings and existence by confronting the internal, turning it into meaning others can access. Teach a tactic in a social feed or sculpt the next great statue for a museum in Rome, it doesn't matter. It flows through YOU in ways big and small.那东西在我们的工作中很重要。我不在乎你是为财富500强写博客文章、主持关于人力资源的播客、写关于讲故事的书，还是在车库里画画。这都是艺术。因为艺术是关于通过面对内在、将其转化为他人可以获取的意义来理解人类情感和存在。在社交媒体上教授一个策略，或者在罗马博物馆雕刻下一个伟大的雕像，都不重要。它通过你流动，无论大小。
Ignore the "YOU" part at your own peril.忽视“你”的部分，后果自负。
Robin Williams certainly didn't.罗宾·威廉姆斯当然没有。
Where did his performance come from? How did those moments take shape? Only the actor could tell you, and actually, he probably couldn't. It was sensed more than it was consciously considered, but the alchemy required his lived experiences. Maybe the pause came from a childhood memory of scuffing his knees as he wrestled on the driveway with a friend. "Get tougher, Robin!" The glances away from Will might come from a lost love which the Hollywood Reporter never told us the man experienced. His face muscles weren't trembling so much as echoing all the trauma he'd endured. He's not remembering his life. He's re-living it.他的表演从何而来？那些时刻是如何形成的？只有演员能告诉你，实际上，他可能也说不清。它是被感知的，而不是被有意识地考虑的，但炼金术需要他的生活经历。也许停顿来自童年记忆，他在车道上和朋友摔跤时擦伤了膝盖。“变得更坚强，罗宾！”目光从威尔身上移开可能来自一段失去的爱情，《好莱坞报道》从未告诉我们这个男人经历过。他的面部肌肉颤抖不仅仅是在回响他所承受的所有创伤。他不是在回忆他的生活。他是在重新经历它。
So much work we encounter online today feels like a script the creator forgot to act. The words are there, but they're lifeless. Then the market said, "Here's a tool to produce more of that stuff, and remember: you can't do anything better than this. Because it's hard, and something that is hard is bad, and also you are bad—until you use our tools!" 如今我们在网上遇到的很多作品感觉就像创作者忘记表演的剧本。文字在那里，但没有生命。然后市场说：“这里有一个工具可以生产更多那种东西，记住：你无法做得比这更好。因为它很难，而难的东西是坏的，而且你也是坏的——直到你使用我们的工具！”
They want to distill everything down to a science. It's our job to elevate it to an art.他们想把一切都归结为科学。我们的工作是把它提升为艺术。
It turns out AI and people both rely on LLMs as their foundations. AI has large language models. People have little life moments.事实证明，AI和人类都依赖LLM作为基础。AI有大型语言模型。人类有小小的生活瞬间。
But we simply don't draw on ours consistently or confidently enough. Doing so would be their nightmare. They don't know how to sell the dream to people too busy daydreaming. They can't dominate our lives if we're actually living.但我们并没有持续或足够自信地利用我们的。这样做将是他们的噩梦。他们不知道如何向那些忙于白日梦的人推销梦想。如果我们真正在生活，他们就不能主宰我们的生活。
It's that stuff which makes our work matter and makes us each matter too, and this moment demands more of it from you and from me. The newcomer to a field or topic, the expert with 40 years' experience, the unknown voice, the broadly known storyteller—it doesn't matter. Drawing on our lives and using our own "LLMs" are what this world needs in an era defined by AI slop and strip-mining every corner of life for eyeballs and dollars.正是那些东西让我们的工作有意义，也让我们每个人有意义，而此刻要求你和我在这一点上做得更多。领域或主题的新手、有40年经验的专家、未知的声音、广为人知的故事讲述者——这都不重要。利用我们的生活并使用我们自己的“LLM”是这个时代所需要的，这个时代被AI垃圾和为了眼球和金钱而掠夺生活的每个角落所定义。
Plenty of others have similar expertise and skills. Plenty of others talk about similar topics. But how you SEE the world separates you. Said better: how YOU see the world. 许多其他人拥有类似的专业知识和技能。许多其他人谈论类似的话题。但你如何看待世界将你区分开来。说得更好：你如何看待世界。
Everyone's got a script, but very few understand how to bring the words to life.每个人都有剧本，但很少有人知道如何赋予文字生命。
Your audience can't learn anything from you that they can't read in a fuckin' book ... or post or video or AI snippet.你的观众无法从你身上学到任何他们在某本该死的书……或帖子或视频或AI片段中读不到的东西。
Unless you wanna talk about you. Who you are. Then I'm fascinated. I'm in.除非你想谈谈你自己。你是谁。那么我很着迷。我加入。
But you don't wanna do that, do you? You're terrified of what you might say. 但你不想那样做，对吧？你害怕自己可能会说的话。
Your move, chief.
