摘要:

随着模型的兴起,人工智能正在经历一场范式转变(例如,BERT、DALL-E、GPT-3),它们在大规模的广泛数据上进行训练,并可适应广泛的下游任务。我们称这些模型为基础模型,以强调其关键的核心,但不完整的字符。本报告全面介绍了基础模型的机会和风险,范围从它们的能力(例如,语言,视觉,机器人,推理,人类互动)和技术原理(例如,模型体系结构、训练过程、数据、系统、安全性、评估、理论)到它们的应用(例如,法律,医疗保健,教育)和社会影响(例如,不公平、滥用、经济和环境影响、法律和道德考虑)。虽然基础模型基于标准的深度学习和迁移学习,但它们的规模会产生新的新兴能力,而且它们在如此多的任务中的有效性会激励同质化。同质化提供了强大的杠杆作用,但需要谨慎,因为基础模型的缺陷会被下游的所有适应模型继承。尽管基础模型即将被广泛部署,但我们目前缺乏对它们如何工作、何时失败以及它们的涌现特性所能带来的能力的清晰理解。为了解决这些问题,我们相信,对基础模型的许多关键研究将需要与其基本的社会技术性质相称的深入的跨学科合作。

英文摘要:

AI is undergoing a paradigm shift with the rise of models (e.g., BERT, DALL-E, GPT-3) that are trained on broad data at scale and are adaptable to a wide range of downstream tasks. We call these models foundation models to underscore their critically central yet incomplete character. This report provides a thorough account of the opportunities and risks of foundation models, ranging from their capabilities (e.g., language, vision, robotics, reasoning, human interaction) and technical principles(e.g., model architectures, training procedures, data, systems, security, evaluation, theory) to their applications (e.g., law, healthcare, education) and societal impact (e.g., inequity, misuse, economic and environmental impact, legal and ethical considerations). Though foundation models are based on standard deep learning and transfer learning, their scale results in new emergent capabilities,and their effectiveness across so many tasks incentivizes homogenization. Homogenization provides powerful leverage but demands caution, as the defects of the foundation model are inherited by all the adapted models downstream. Despite the impending widespread deployment of foundation models, we currently lack a clear understanding of how they work, when they fail, and what they are even capable of due to their emergent properties. To tackle these questions, we believe much of the critical research on foundation models will require deep interdisciplinary collaboration commensurate with their fundamentally sociotechnical nature.
