Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming many aspects of modern life, one of which is the field of art. AI image generators have recently blown many people away. ❶Just enter keywords or pictures into the generator, and it will turn inputs into images within a few minutes. Though the tool is a technological breakthrough, some artists are not happy about it. They protested online when they discovered their copyrighted work was used to construct AI-generated art. Many said they felt cheated because they were not informed about it, nor did they receive any payment in return.
Despite the negative response from those whose works were used to assist the development of the AI technology, there is no specific law against AI-generated pieces of art. While copyright laws protect particular works of art made by individuals, artistic styles that AI copies cannot be legally protected in the same way. ❷This issue may pose a problem—if a company finds an image it wants to use, all it has to do is enter the picture into an AI art system to get an imitated one; in doing so, it will not be considered to be violating any laws.
Though AI-generated art has sparked a heated debate, it obviously has numerous benefits. ❸One example of this is the ability to quickly create supernatural scenes that may be impossible for humans to produce. On the other hand, there are
potential disadvantages to this technology. As seen from the artists’ reactions to discovering their work being used without their knowledge, there are ethical problems. Also, there is the danger of deepfakes, which are AI-created images or videos of people that look incredibly realistic. For example, people could be depicted as doing something scandalous. ❹Clearly, AI-generated art is a rapidly developing field with many bright sides as well as potential problems. As it becomes more prevalent, numerous issues related to AI-generated art need to be figured out.
1. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
(A) Why many people admire art created by AI.
(B) How artists are using technology to produce art.
(C) Why AI-generated art has not become accepted yet.
(D) How artists reacted to their artwork being used to train AI.
2. What does “in the same way” in paragraph 2 mean?
(A) In the way laws offer protection to historically important creations.
(B) In the way laws offer protection to specific works of art.
(C) In the way laws allow fair use of copyrighted works.
(D) In the way laws allow certain artwork to be adapted.
3. Which disadvantage of AI-generated art is mentioned in the passage?
(A) This kind of new art breaks the law.
(B) It will be easier for artists to create their work.
(C) Human artists will not be motivated to make art.
(D) Fake images created by AI are becoming harder to detect.
4.The four sentences numbered ❶ to ❹ in the passage have to do with different aspects of AI image generators. Which one is most related to the issue the following statement discusses?
The AI image generator is like a washing machine of intellectual property. Put an image protected by copyright into it, and it will give you “clean” stuff you can use freely.
(A)❶ (B)❷ (C)❸ (D)❹
答案: 1.D 2.B 3.D 4.B

中文翻译(& 答案)
人工智慧(AI)正在改变现代生活的许多方面,其中之一就是艺术领域。AI 图片产生 器最近让很多人惊叹不已。只需在产生器中输入关键字或上传图片,它就会在几分钟内将 输入的东西变成图像。尽管该工具是一项技术突破,但一些艺术家对此不是很开心。当他 们发现自己受到版权保护的作品被用于建构 AI 生成的艺术时,他们在网路上抗议。许多人 表示他们觉得自己被骗了,因为他们没有被告知,也没有收到任何作为回报的报酬。
尽管那些自己作品被用于协助 AI 技术发展的人有负面反应,但并没有具体法律禁止 AI 生成的艺术。虽然着作权法(编按:着作权即为俗称的版权)保护个人创作的特定艺术 品,但 AI 所复制的艺术风格不能以同样的方式受到法律保护。这项议题可能会带来一个问 题 ── 如果一间公司找到了一张它想使用的图片,它所要做的就是将图片输入 AI 艺术系 统以得到一张仿图;这样一来,该公司就不会被认为有违法。
虽然 AI 生成的艺术引发了热议,但它显然有许多好处。这方面的一个例子是能够快速创造出人类可能无法制作的超自然场 景。另一方面,这项技术也有潜在的缺点。从艺术家发现自己的作品在他们不知情的情况下被使用的反应,可以看出有伦理上的 问题。此外,还有深度伪造的危险,深度伪造是指看起来非常逼真的 AI 生成人像或影片。例如,人们可以被描绘成做不雅观的 事情。AI 生成艺术显然是一个快速发展的领域,有许多好的面向和潜在的问题。随着 AI 生成艺术益发普遍,许多与其相关的议 题需要着手解决。
1. 第一段的主旨为何?
(A) 为何许多人喜欢 AI 生成的艺术。
(B) 艺术家如何使用科技来创作艺术。
(C) 为什么 AI 生成的艺术还没有被接受。
(D) 艺术家对他们的作品被用来训练 AI 的反应如何。
2. 第二段的 “in the same way” 是什么意思?
(A) 以法律为具有重要历史意义的创作提供保护的方式。
(B) 以法律为特定艺术作品提供保护的方式。
(C) 以法律允许合理使用受版权保护之作品的方式。
(D) 以法律允许修改某些艺术作品的方式。
3. 本文提及 AI 生成艺术的哪一项缺点?
(A) 这种新艺术是违法的。
(B) 艺术家更容易创造他们的作品。
(C) 人类艺术家不会有动力去创作艺术。
(D) AI 生成的假图正变得愈来愈难以察觉。
4. 本文中编号 到 的四个句子与 AI 图片产生器的不同 方面有关。哪一项与以下叙述所探讨的议题最为相关?
AI 图片产生器就像一台智慧财产权的洗衣机。将受版 权保护的图像放入其中,它就会提供给你可自由使用 的「干净」内容。
题解: 题目叙述旨在说明将有版权的图像上传至 AI 图片产生 器,就能得到无版权的图像,而这跟 后半所举的例 子一致 ── 一间公司将想使用的图片输入 AI 艺术系统 便可得到一张仿图,也不会有违法之虞,故选 (B)。
