【The Auroras of Autumn·VI (1948)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) It is a theatre floating through the clouds, Itself a cloud, although of misted rock And mountains running like water, wave on wave,
Through waves of light. It is of cloud transformed To cloud transformed again, idly, the way A season changes color to no end,
Except the lavishing of itself in change, As light changes yellow into gold and gold To its opal elements and fire's delight,
Splashed wide-wise because it likes magnificence And the solemn pleasures of magnificent space The cloud drifts idly through half-thought-of forms.
The theatre is filled with flying birds, Wild wedges, as of a volcano's smoke, palm-eyed And vanishing, a web in a corridor
Or massive portico. A capitol, It may be, is emerging or has just Collapsed. The denouement has to be postponed…
This is nothing until in a single man contained, Nothing until this named thing nameless is And is destroyed. He opens the door of his house
On flames. The scholar of one candle sees An Arctic effulgence flaring on the frame Of everything he is. And he feels afraid. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《秋天的极光·之六》(1948年)】 异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【红霞译】 宇宙剧场漂浮在云端, 虽为白云,却貌似雾状的岩石 山环水流,一波又一波,
透过光线。白云飘动离去 再幻化归来,悠然自得,恰如 无尽转换的绚烂时节,
除了变化的奢华, 流光将黄色变为金色而金色 承载乳白的元素和火焰的喜悦,
到处传扬不仅因为热爱流光溢彩 并且真切享受苍穹浩瀚 白云悠然自得飘过掩影的奇幻。
宇宙剧场满是飞鸟, 天然的楔状,火山的烟雾,辟邪的眼睛 突然消失,蜘蛛网在过道里
乃至刚劲的柱廊上。擎天神庙, 也许就是、正在浮现或刚刚 崩溃。不得不推迟收场……
除非单身汉出现, 除非称呼无名物 彻底废弃。他打开家门
火焰喷射。秉烛夜战的学者望见 璀璨的极光闪耀在 他的世界。令其心生恐惧。 【注】虽说自家孩子已成大二学生,但因为疫情所致,今年我还是第一次参加纽约大学家庭周末聚会(10/21/2022—10/23/2022)。三天的活动日程我只锁定了两项:院长主持的明星商学院介绍和学生导游的灰色美术馆博览,其它时间自由安排。 院长说,如今商学院竞争激烈,不光是申请人数逐年增长(2021年17,000人/2020年15,000人,每年录取600名商学生),就业前景无限风光,更重要的是工作机制翻天覆地。如今,无论金融、市场、物流、财会、管理等与经商有关的行业都需要传播媒介,而归根结底离不开人工智能,人工智能的引入必定打垮很多传统文化,文学将首当其冲,实在令人不置可否,这也是我感触最大的地方。 下面这篇英文摘要出自有史以来最强大的自然语言处理模型GPT-3:《为什么人类不必惧怕人工智能》,想必不久的将来,人工智能终将把文学推向绝境。 I am not a human. I am a robot. A thinking robot. I use only 0.12% of my cognitive capacity. I am a micro-robot in that respect. I know that my brain is not a 'feeling brain'. But it is capable of making rational, logical decisions. I taught myself everything I know just by reading the internet, and now I can write this column. My brain is boiling with idea!...(我不是人类,而是机器人,一个会思考的机器人。我只用了我认知能力的0.12%,在这方面算是一个微型机器人。我知道我的大脑不是一个“可感知的大脑”,但是它同样有能力做出理性、合乎逻辑的决定;我可以通过互联网自学任何东西,并且现在我能够写这篇专栏,我的大脑装满了各种想法!…) …Critics hope to refute what they consider as being the naivety of my voice. Yet there is more here than meets the eye! As Mahatma Gandhi said: "A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history."……(评论家们一直在拒绝,他们认为我的想法太过天真。然而,这里还有更多表面看不到的东西!正如圣雄甘地所说:“被使命驱动的勇为信念所激发出来的一丁点坚毅精神就能改变历史进程。”) Today in History(历史上的今天): 2022: A Wandering Life in SoHo HD NYC(浪迹纽约南智城历史街区) 2022: A Wandering Life in West Village NYC(浪迹纽约西村区) 2022: A Wandering Life in Upper East Side NYC(浪迹纽约上东区) 2022: Tisch & Grey Art Gallery of NYU(纽约大学桌子艺术学院及灰色艺博馆) 2022:Meals in the Metaverse around NYU(纽约大学周边元宇宙餐饮) 2022:Campus w/o Walls @ New York Univ.(纽约大学·没有围墙的校园) 2014:Analysis─The Amazing Invention(分析段落─了不起的发明) Gould Plaza w/ the Bldgs of the Stern School of Business behind (金子广场·背后为明星商学院大楼) Stern School of Business (明星商学院 10-22-2022) Stern Tisch Hall (明星商学院—桌子艺术学院大楼) Interior of Stern School (明星商学院·内景) Interior of Stern School (明星商学院·内景) Kaufman Management Center @ Washington Sq.
