We are back 7:39 with the Today exclusive and annual tradition for us.

我們回來了，這是《Today》節目的獨家內容，也是我們每年的年度傳統。

The reveal of 2025's Time Person of the Year.

揭曉 2025 年《TIME》年度風雲人物。

Every year since 1927, they've selected the man, woman, group or concept with the most influence on the world.

自 1927 年以來，《TIME》每年都會選出對世界影響力最大的人、團體或概念。

The first, when it was Times man of the Year, aviator, Charles Lindbergh.

第一位得主是當年的《TIME》年度人物——飛行員查爾斯．林德伯格。

More recent recipients highlight a wide range of selections from Vladimir Zelinsky and the Spirit of Ukraine.

近年的得主範圍非常廣，從澤倫斯基與「烏克蘭精神」。

There was music superstar Taylor Swift that sold some issues.

也有帶動銷量的音樂巨星泰勒絲。

And last year, it was then President elect Donald Trump.

而去年則是當時的總統當選人唐納．川普。

So here to share this year's election, Times editor in chief Sam Jacobs.

現在邀請《TIME》總編輯山姆．雅各布斯來分享今年的選擇。

我們真的很喜歡這個與你一起進行的傳統。

Well, today we are proud to announce the 99th person of the year from Time and the person of the year for 2025, the architects of AI.

今天我們很榮幸宣布，《TIME》第 99 屆年度風雲人物——2025 年的得主是「AI 的建築師們」。

This is the year where we feel like the people who were designing, imagining and building artificial intelligence

我們認為這一年，是那些設計、想像並打造人工智慧的人，

stopped debating about how to create this technology and started racing to deploy it.

停止討論「該如何創造這項技術」，而是開始競相部署它的一年。

And there are enormous consequences for society.

而這對社會將帶來巨大的影響。

I mean, let's talk about some of the contents of the article I just said.

我們來談談你文章中的一些內容。

I thought it was pretty fascinating because you didn't just talk to the architects.

我覺得非常引人入勝，因為你不只訪問了 AI 的創造者。

You talked to the people who are going to be directly impacted by artificial intelligence as well.

你也訪問了那些將直接受到人工智慧影響的人。

What did they tell you about AI and what do the architects that you talked to, what did they have to say?

他們對 AI 有什麼看法？你訪談的建構者又說了什麼？

The people building this technology are incredibly enthusiastic for the potential.

打造這項技術的人對它的潛力感到極度興奮。

Someone like Jensen Huang at Nvidia saying that the global GDP, which currently caps out at about $100 trillion, could be $500 trillion.

像是輝達的黃仁勳就表示，目前約 100 兆美元的全球 GDP，未來可能成長到 500 兆。

The CEO of Anthropic says maybe one out of five people will be unemployed because of artificial intelligence in the next one to five years.

Anthropic 的執行長表示，未來一到五年內，可能每五個人就有一人因 AI 而失業。

I mean, it's so interesting because you hear everything from AI could help us find answers.

這真的很有意思，因為你會聽到有人說 AI 能幫助我們找到答案。

It could eradicate diseases, change life for the better.

能根除疾病，讓生活變得更好。

And then there are people, smart people who know, who say it has the potential to literally destroy humankind.

但同時，也有聰明又了解內情的人警告，它可能真的會毀滅人類。

AI seems to be the answer for everything in 2025,

在 2025 年，AI 似乎成了萬能解答。

You think about a product like ChatGPT. 800 million people are using it.

以 ChatGPT 這樣的產品為例，已有 8 億人正在使用。

Think about something like what President Trump said earlier this year.

再想想川普總統今年稍早說過的話。

It's interesting because I think a lot of folks think that this is sort of something that just came about over the last few years.

有趣的是，很多人以為這一切只是最近幾年才突然出現。

In your article, you talk about how this is sort of in 75 years in the making.

但你的文章提到，這其實已經醞釀了 75 年。

75 years ago, we put a computer named Mark3 on the cover of Time.

75 年前，《TIME》曾將一台名為 Mark III 的電腦放上封面。

And the name of that article was the Thinking Machine.

那篇文章的標題叫做《會思考的機器》。

And it's amazing to go back and read what the editors of Time said then about the potential for computers.

回頭看當年《TIME》編輯對電腦潛力的描述，真的令人驚訝。

It feels like now we're living in the age of the Thinking Machine.

現在感覺我們正活在「思考機器」的時代。

Well, we talk a lot about the tech leaders who have enormous influence.

我們也經常談到那些擁有巨大影響力的科技領袖。

And, you know, we see the cover. It's hard for me to see who's on the cover there.

而你們的封面上，我有點看不清楚都有誰。

Some of them are very familiar people to you.

You know, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, of course, OpenAI, Sam Altman.

像是 Meta 的馬克．祖克柏、伊隆．馬斯克，還有 OpenAI 的山姆．奧特曼。

Others may be less familiar. People are really helping to shape the direction of this technology.

也有一些較不為人熟知，但正在塑造這項技術方向的人。

These are unelected people who are having an enormous impact on our lives.

這些並非民選的人，卻對我們的生活產生了巨大影響。

This reminds me of the Gilded Age, I think.

Never before at least and since then has so much power been concentrated in so few individuals.

至少自那之後，從未有過如此龐大的權力集中在這麼少數人手中。

而我們也知道當時發生了什麼。

Amazing progress, but also incredible inequality.

驚人的進步，同時也伴隨著極大的不平等。

And when we think that a lot of folks think that the same thing could be happening with this revolution.

而很多人認為，這場革命可能正在重演同樣的情況。

All right, let's talk about quickly also what's happening on Wall Street.

我們也快速談談華爾街目前的狀況。

I mean, a lot of people saying there's so much investment in AI and that there's a bubble that, you know, at some point is going to burst.

許多人說，AI 投資過熱，這個泡沫遲早會破裂。

Since August, there's been increasing concern about this phenomenon.

自八月以來，對這種現象的擔憂持續升高。

It's really interesting that the entire market and the entire economy right now is dependent upon a handful of companies.

現在整個市場、甚至整個經濟，都依賴少數幾家公司。

And it's possible that the growth and massive capital expenditure that we're seeing there is masking a potential recession.

而目前看到的成長與巨額資本支出，可能掩蓋了一場潛在的衰退。

You could do a double, triple issue on this one, but

這個主題甚至可以出雙刊、三刊，
