You can learn AI later 你可以慢点学习AI

这篇文章的作者是Jason Fried，37Signals的联合创始人兼CEO，这家公司开发了Basecamp和HEY。曾被连线杂志评为《十大最值得关注的新创公司》

他在文中大致探讨「保持好奇心，AI延迟学习」👇🏻👇🏻：

“AI是当下的热门，但并不需要现在就成为专家。掌握AI的工具并不是当务之急，现在需要的是保持好奇心，尝试使用AI进行探索。

当真正需要这项技术时，再去学习。需要是学习的动力，因此等到AI稳定下来之后再去学习，会更加容易。不要被「AI恐惧焦虑制造者」所迷惑，现在还没有AI专家，只有在网上装成专家的人。

保持好奇心，了解AI的能力，当需要的时候再去学习。在那之前，忽略那些要求，专注于做好你已经擅长的事情。”

ps：也不用等待，边学边用，边用边学。

Throw a dart on LinkedIn, or toss one into the ether on Twitter, and you'll likely hit a post proclaiming that you better "learn AI" or you're falling behind.
在领英上掷一枝飞镖，或在推特上抛出一枝，你很可能会击中一篇宣称“你最好‘学习人工智能’”否则就会落后的帖子。

Master the tools and become a prompt engineer or someone else will tell the AI to summarize the long documents, kick off initial first drafts, and rewrite the headlines for you!
掌握工具，成为提示工程师，否则别人将告诉 AI 来总结长文档、启动初稿，并为你重写标题！

Nonsense. 胡说八道。

This isn't saying AI, ChatGPT, or whatever comes next is nonsense. It's very real, very powerful, and very here. 这并不是说 AI、ChatGPT 或未来任何事物都是胡说八道。它非常真实、非常强大，而且就在我们身边。

But there's nothing you need to learn, or do, right now, other than be curious. Play around, kick the tires, poke and prod. Get a feel for what this new sauce tastes like. Have fun, it's not a test.
但你现在不需要学习任何东西，也不需要做任何事，除了保持好奇心。随意尝试，体验一番，探索一下。感受一下这种新技术的味道。尽情享受，这不是考试。

But become a master at once or you're going to lose your job to some AI expert? Nah. That's pure FUD. The stuff that everyone's talking about is barely 6 months old — there are no experts, there are just people playing experts on the internet.
你要么立刻成为专家，要么就会失去工作给某个 AI 专家？不。这纯粹是恐慌言论。大家都在谈论的东西还不到 6 个月——根本没有什么专家，只是网上装专家的人。

Besides, the best way to learn something is to need that something. Learning when you don't really need to is a good way to give up early. Learning when there's something you truly need to do, but can't, but could, is the right time to figure something out.
此外，学习某件事最好的方式是你确实需要它。不需要的时候学习很容易半途而废。当你真正需要做某件事，但又做不了，但可以做到的时候，才是学习的时候。

They say necessity is the mother of invention, but it's really the impetus for learning. The time will come, and you can figure it out then. If anything, it'll be easier to learn how to use AI once it settles in a bit. Currently it's a moving target.
人们说需要是发明之母，但真正推动学习的是动力。时机会到来的，到时候你就能想通。如果有什么，一旦 AI 稍微稳定下来，学习如何使用它就会更容易。目前它还是一个移动的目标。

So wait on it. Pop the pressure. Don't feel like you're falling behind. And don't drop everything to dig in. Start curious, stay curious, know what it's capable of, and, when the necessity strikes, figure it out.
所以耐心等待。不要给自己太大压力。不要觉得落后了。也不要为了钻研而放弃一切。保持好奇心，知道它的能力，当需要来临时，再想通它。

Until then, ignore the demands and focus on doing what you're already good at.
直到那时，忽略那些要求，专注于你原本擅长的事情。
