副總統J.D. Vance在周三拉斯維加斯的比特幣會議上對新興科技行業的文化戰爭發起了攻擊——將人工智能品牌為“共產主義技術”，並將加密貨幣視為促進自由的對抗力量。
這些評論對於一個逐漸厭惡喬·拜登總統及其對數字資產監管態度的加密社區來說無疑是引人關注，並強調了來自矽穀的科技變革可能對華盛頓的黨派權力平衡產生持久而決定性的影響。
Vance said that though it's a slight "overstatement" to say that crypto is a "conservative technology" while AI is "a left-leaning or communist technology," he added that there's a "fundamental element of truth" to this divide. Vance表示，盡管說加密貨幣是“保守技術”，而人工智能是“左傾或共產主義技術”有些“誇大其詞”，但他補充說，這種劃分有“基本的事實成分”。
"What I've noticed is that very smart right-wing people in tech tend to be attracted to bitcoin (BTCUSD) and crypto, and very smart left-wing people in tech tend to be attracted to AI," Vance added. Vance補充道：“我注意到，非常聰明的右派科技人士往往對比特幣(BTCUSD)和加密貨幣感興趣，而非常聰明的左派科技人士則傾向於人工智能。”
加密和人工智能行業的領導者們試圖否認加密是共和黨人的看法，認為大型語言模型對民主黨表現出黨派偏見。
Whether or not these effects are the result of AI engineers' politics is unknown, but Vance said he wants crypto technologists to stay informed about their colleagues' work at AI labs. 這些影響是否源於人工智能工程師的政治尚不清楚，但範斯表示，他希望加密技術人員能夠保持對同事在人工智能實驗室工作的關注。
"I'd ask you all to remember that what happens in AI is very much going to affect in good and bad ways what happens in bitcoin," Vance said. "Make sure you're keeping tabs on and staying involved in what's happening in artificial intelligence." 範斯說：“我希望大家記住，人工智能的發展在很大程度上會影響比特幣的好壞局麵。請確保你們關注並參與人工智能領域的動態。”
