摘要:

大数据是推动生成式AI之诞生和发展的一个重要前提,对大数据的发展演变进行谱系学考察也有助于我们更深刻地理解以ChatGPT为代表的新型AI的本质与前景。从强度性数据到大数据,从第四范式到数据洪水,这或许并非只是一个从量变到质变的过程,而更是数据的本原性强度日渐衰退,人的主体性在数据面前日渐消亡的过程。由此,有必要回归强度这个哲学概念,结合德勒兹和加西亚等哲学家的代表性论述,进而揭示它何以从一种创生之力量逐渐蜕变为经典物理学中的被计量之力,进而又在控制社会之中被彻底驯化为电力。既然肯定性的生命强度举步维艰,那么或许理应转向否定性的死亡强度来探寻出路。加西亚的思辨实在论,德勒兹的无器官身体,以及福柯的致命机器,似乎敞开了三条相关又有别的道路。

Abstract:

Big data is an important prerequisite for promoting the birth and development of generative AI. A genealogical examination of the evolution of big data will also help us gain a deeper understanding of the nature and prospects of new AI represented by ChatGPT. From intensive data to big data, from the Fourth Paradigm to the data deluge, this may not be just a process from quantitative change to qualitative change, but also a process in which the original intensity of data is gradually declining, and human subjectivity is gradually disappearing in front of data. Therefore, it is necessary to return to the philosophical concept of intensity. Inspired by the representative discussion of Deleuze, Garcia and other philosophers, we will reveal why intensity gradually transforms from a creative force into a measured force in classical physics, and then the completely domesticated electricity in the society of control. Since the affirmative life intensity is struggling, perhaps we should turn to the negative death intensity to find a way out. Garcia’s speculative realism, Deleuze’s body without organs, and Foucault’s lethal machines seem to open up three related but different paths.
