記者鄧天心／綜合報導 Meta全球有近7.9萬名員工，底下有兩家超大的社群平台Facebook與Instagram，但不是每個員工遇到問題都可以聯繫上老闆馬克祖克柏（Mark Zuckerberg），不過據報導，這家的母公司正著手開發一個「AI版」的祖克柏，能隨時為員工解惑。 Meta研發「AI祖克伯」讓全球8萬名員工隨時與「虛擬老闆」對話。（圖／AI生成） 這款祖克柏AI訓練素材包含他的說話語氣、肢體神態，以及他過去針對公司策略的公開演說與思維，根據《金融時報》報導，之前2022年，祖克柏曾公開他在元宇宙（Metaverse）中的虛擬角色，但成果不如預期，還被外界嘲笑一番，雖然現在Meta已沒有了原本的元宇宙夢想，但該公司並未放棄，轉而開發能能日常對話的AI 3D角色，而目前的研發重點正是祖克柏本人。 現年41歲、身價估計超過2,200億美元的祖克柏，親自參與了這款AI角色的訓練，期望藉此降低成本並加速工作節奏。他強調，整合AI是簡化組織架構、提高效率的關鍵，目標是「完成更多工作」並實現團隊扁平化。 更多科技工作請上科技專區：https://techplus.1111.com.tw/科技社群討論區：https://pei.com.tw/feed/c/tech-plus 這項計畫是Meta投入數十億美元打造「超級智慧」（Superintelligence），上週，Meta推出了先進AI模型「Muse Spark」，號稱能從照片估算餐點熱量，並同時規劃家庭旅遊行程，儘管該模型在語言與視覺理解表現優異，但在撰寫程式碼與抽象推理方面仍落後。 然而，衝刺AI的同時，Meta也面臨法律與社會審查，上個月，新墨西哥州陪審團因Meta在平台安全上誤導消費者，裁定其需支付3.75億美元罰金；加州法院也裁定Instagram存在刻意誘導成癮的機制，英國首相施凱默（Keir Starmer）週一更公開批評Instagram等平台的無限閱覽機制對青少年有害，希望能針對16歲以下青少年下達社交媒體使用禁令。 延伸閱讀： 臨場反應決定職涯高度！職場心理專家揭祕：回答突發提問4大心法 資料來源：the guardian

Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph shares a vivid memory of Jeff Bezos’ early energy and enthusiasm during the formative years of online video.

圖／本報AI製圖（示意圖） 商傳媒｜責任編輯／綜合外電報導 社群媒體巨擘 Meta 正著手開發執行長馬克·祖克柏（Mark Zuckerberg）的人工智慧（AI）版本，預計讓公司全球近 79,000 名員工能與這個虛擬分身互動。此舉的目的是透過人工智慧技術，模糊人類領導與機器智慧之間的界線，並強化企業內部溝通。 這個 AI 驅動的「數位分身」正接受密集訓練，以模仿祖克柏的語調、舉止及策略思維。未來員工將能向其提問，並獲得反映執行長觀點的回應。據報導，祖克柏本人也積極參與此系統的訓練，提供其語音與肖像資料，確保 AI 分身的真實性與準確性。 此計畫是 Meta 更廣泛將 AI 深度整合至營運的策略一環。該公司已從早期推動元宇宙時的數位替身，轉向開發更實用、能進行自然即時對話的 AI 驅動虛擬角色。Meta 相信，類似技術最終可能被網紅及內容創作者採用，拓展其應用範圍。 這項創新背後，Meta 期望藉由 AI 提高生產力、簡化營運，並促進員工與高層之間的連結。Synthesia 的一位發言人指出，逼真的 AI 影像與語音能顯著提升員工的參與度與資訊記憶點，而資訊若由熟悉的臉孔或聲音傳達，更能提高工作效率與溝通成效。 除了員工互動分身，Meta 也為祖克柏本人開發專屬的「執行長代理人」（CEO agent），協助他快速存取公司數據並準備會議。祖克柏曾於今年一月表示，Meta 將提升個人貢獻者地位並扁平化團隊，這也反映了公司正朝精簡組織結構邁進，讓 AI 工具直接賦予員工能力。 在矽谷日益激烈的 AI 競賽中，Meta 正投入數十億美元於先進 AI 系統，以維持競爭力。祖克柏甚至公開追求「超級智慧」，期望 AI 系統能在幾乎所有認知任務上超越人類。然而，Meta 同時也面臨各界對平台安全與用戶福祉的日益嚴格審查與監管壓力。此 AI 祖克柏分身的發展，凸顯主要科技公司正加速將 AI 整合至企業領導與溝通模式中。
