迪斯尼公司日前透露，未來，機器人版的卡通形象將在迪斯尼樂園穿梭，并與游客互動。這些機器人還將配備人工智能(AI)技術(shù)，從而與人類互動。

Disney has provided an insight into the future of its theme parks, where robotic versions of its iconic characters could soon walk among guests.
迪斯尼公布了他們對主題公園的設(shè)想——機器人版的經(jīng)典卡通形象可能不久后將在游客中穿梭。

The entertainment firm discussed plans to embrace brand new technologies at SXSW 2017, where it also showed off footage of a robot Pascal, the lizard from Tangled.
該娛樂公司在2017年西南偏南大會上，表示將計劃引進全新的技術(shù)。他們還在現(xiàn)場展示了一臺機器人帕斯卡（《長發(fā)公主》中的寵物蜥蜴）的視頻影像。

As if the thought of an enormous, roaming robot Mickey Mouse wasn’t disconcerting enough, Disney also confirmed that artificial intelligence will allow its robots to interact with people.
似乎覺得想像一個巨大的米老鼠機器人穿行在游客中間還不夠令人驚喜，迪斯尼還確認，人工智能技術(shù)將使機器人能與游客交流互動。

“I think AI and machine learning is going to be very important for what we do,” Jon Snoddy, Disney’s senior vice president for research and development, told the BBC.
“我認為人工智能和機器學習將對我們的工作有重要作用，”迪斯尼研發(fā)部高級副總裁喬恩?斯諾迪這樣告訴英國廣播公司。

“Things like characters that can move around among our guests. They’re going to need to understand where they’re going, have goals, and they’re going to have to know how to navigate in a world with humans.”
“比如，如果讓卡通形象在游客周圍活動，那么它們就需要知道自己要去哪里，要有目標，并且它們還需要知道如何在行人中穿行。”

However, the company is also aware of some of the fear surrounding AI, and Mr Snoddy added that Disney will carry out tests to ensure its creations make a positive impression on fans.
然而，迪斯尼公司也意識到了有些人對于人工智能的恐懼。斯諾迪還表示，迪斯尼會進行檢測，以確保機器人給游客們留下好印象。

“Obviously we’re not the business of scaring kids!” he continued. “That won’t be part of what we deploy. We go and do tests in our parks to gauge the reaction and try and understand what kids find entertaining about these things.”
他還說，“很顯然，我們不想嚇唬孩子。這不是我們要做的。我們會在園區(qū)內(nèi)進行一系列評估游客反響的測試，并嘗試理解孩子們對這些機器人的興趣點。”

“We’re not going to put up a sign that says 'Look! Artificial intelligence', because no-one would come to see that. They really come to be moved emotionally, that will not change.”
“我們到時候不會張貼一個標志，寫著“看！這是人工智能”，因為不會有人來看這個。游客們來這里只是為了尋找感動，這一點永遠也不會變。”

A recent report found a number of security vulnerabilities in existing robots, and warned that criminals could exploit the flaws to gain control of them in homes and workplaces.
最近報道發(fā)現(xiàn)，現(xiàn)有的機器人存在很多安全隱患，并且警告稱，犯罪分子可能會利用技術(shù)漏洞控制家用或工作用機器人。

“Hacked robots could start fires in a kitchen by tampering with electricity, or potentially poison family members and pets by mixing toxic substances in with food or drinks,” it read.
報道稱，“受到黑客攻擊的機器人可能會篡改電路，從而使廚房起火，或者可能會在食物和飲用品中混入有毒物質(zhì)，從而毒害家庭成員和寵物。”

“Family members and pets could be in further peril if a hacked robot was able to grab and manipulate sharp objects.”
“如果受黑客攻擊的機器人能夠接觸到并操縱利器，家庭成員和寵物還有可能面臨更多危險。”
