加里·卡斯帕罗夫在国际象棋界独占鳌头，直到1997年被IBM超级计算机“深蓝”击败。这件事使“人输给电脑”成为全世界的头条新闻。卡斯帕罗夫最近回到纽约酒店的舞厅，在那里他与人工智能专家的辩论被击败。《连线》杂志的威尔·奈特（Will Knight）在那里接受了一次颇具启发性的采访，采访对象可能是世界上有史以来最伟大的人类棋手。

“我是第一个工作受到机器威胁的知识工人，”卡斯帕罗夫说，他预见到我们所有人都会遇到这种情况。

”Every technology destroys jobs before creating jobs. When you look at the statistics, only 4 percent of jobs in the US require human creativity. That means 96 percent of jobs, I call them zombie jobs. They’re dead, they just don’t know it. For several decades we have been training people to act like computers, and now we are complaining that these jobs are in danger. Of course they are.”

专家表示，美国只有约14%的工作面临被人工智能和机器人取代的风险。不过，卡斯帕罗夫有一些建议，我们僵尸寻找重新技能。

”There are different machines, and it is the role of a human and understand exactly what this machine will need to do its best. ... I describe the human role as being shepherds.”

例如，卡斯帕罗夫帮助Alphabet的DeepMind部门了解AlphaZero棋局的潜在弱点。

采访中还引述了卡斯帕罗夫的一句名言：

”People say, oh, we need to make ethical AI. What n***ense. Humans still have the monopoly on evil. The problem is not AI. The problem is humans using new technologies to harm other humans.”

它’这是一本引人入胜的读物，如果只是为了找出为什么卡斯帕罗夫认为人工智能让国际象棋变得更有趣，即使人类不这么认为的话，也应该完整地阅读’我不可能打败它。
