截至2026年5月20日的当前油价

(SeaPRwire) -   东部时间今天上午9:30,原油价格为每桶110.34美元,以布伦特原油为基准(我们稍后会解释这意味着什么)。这比昨天上午下降了2.59美元,比去年同期上涨了约44.50美元。 每桶油价% 变化昨日油价$112.93-2.29%1个月前油价$97.50+13.77%1年前油价$65.83+67.61% 油价会上涨吗? 没有人能确定地预测油价的未来走势。一系列因素影响着石油交易,但供需仍然是主要驱动力。当对经济放缓、冲突或类似冲击的担忧加剧时,油价可能会急剧波动。 油价如何转化为加油站价格 您在加油站看到的价格不仅仅反映了原油成本。其中还包括炼油、通过批发商分销的成本、各种税费以及您附近加油站收取的利润。 原油仍然是最终加油站价格的最大单一驱动因素,通常占每加仑成本的一半以上。油价飙升往往会在短时间内推高汽油价格。但当油价下跌时,汽油价格往往会逐渐回落,这种现象被称为“火箭和羽毛”。 美国战略石油储备的作用 在紧急情况下,美国维持着一个名为战略石油储备的原油储备。其主要目标是在灾难发生时(例如制裁、严重的风暴破坏或战争)保障能源安全。它还可以极大地缓解供应中断时油价突然上涨带来的痛苦。 这不是一个永久性的解决方案,因为它更多地是为了向消费者提供即时支持,并确保经济的关键部分,如关键行业、紧急服务、公共交通等能够继续运行。 石油和天然气价格如何关联 石油和天然气都作为主要能源发挥着关键作用。油价的巨大变化可能会间接影响天然气。如果油价上涨,一些行业可能会在可能的情况下,将其部分业务的能源来源从石油转向天然气,从而增加对天然气的需求。 石油的历史表现 油价通常通过两个关键基准来衡量: 布伦特原油是主要的全球石油基准。 西德克萨斯中质原油 (WTI)是北美的主要基准。 在这两者之间,布伦特原油更能代表全球石油表现,因为它为世界上大部分交易的原油定价。它也通常是回顾历史油价趋势的最佳方式。事实上,美国能源信息署现在在其《年度能源展望》中将布伦特原油作为其主要参考。 当您审视布伦特基准在过去几十年的表现时,您会发现油价一直波动不定。它经历过由战争和供应削减驱动的飙升,也经历过与全球经济衰退和供应过剩(称为“过剩”)相关的暴跌。例如: 20世纪70年代初,中东在赎罪日战争期间削减出口并对美国及其他国家实施禁运,引发了第一次重大石油危机。 20世纪80年代中期,由于需求疲软和更多非OPEC产油国进入该行业等原因,油价下跌。 2008年,随着全球需求上升,油价再次飙升,但很快随着全球金融危机而暴跌。 在2020年新冠疫情封锁期间,石油需求空前崩溃,导致油价跌至每桶20美元以下。 简而言之,石油的历史表现远非稳定。它受到战争、经济衰退、OPEC的意愿、不断变化的能源倡议和政策等诸多因素的巨大影响。 来自的能源报道 希望及时了解最新的能源发展?请查看我们最近的报道: 数据中心可能在2030年前使一些州的电力成本上涨50%以上 伊朗战争如何改变全球能源版图 NextEra以670亿美元收购Dominion,创建全球最大公用事业公司 常见问题 每桶原油的当前价格是如何确定的? 每桶原油的当前价格主要取决于供需,包括有关未来潜在供需的消息(地缘政治、OPEC+做出的决定等)。在美国,价格也根据政府对钻探的友好程度而波动,因为它会影响未来的供应。例如,2025年,特朗普政府采取行动,重新开放北极国家野生动物保护区沿海平原超过150万英亩的土地用于石油和天然气租赁,扭转了拜登政府限制北极石油钻探的政策。 油价一天内变化频率如何? 当“期货”市场开放时,油价会不断更新。期货市场实际上是一个拍卖市场,人们在此同意未来买卖石油。只要人们和公司在交易合约,油价就在变化。 美国页岩油产量如何影响当前油价? 简而言之,页岩是含有石油和天然气的岩石。可以将页岩视为尚未开发的能源。美国开采的页岩越多,我们拥有的能源就越多——由于供应增加,油价就越容易避免大幅飙升。 当前油价如何影响通货膨胀和更广泛的经济? 当石油昂贵时,它往往会使日常用品成本更高。这可能与能源(您的取暖、燃气等)有关,但也与使这些物品可供您使用的物流有关。例如,运输会影响杂货店商品的价格,因为将这些产品从仓库和农场运到货架上会更昂贵。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

美国是否会对古巴前总统劳尔·卡斯特罗提起公诉?
美国是否会对古巴前总统劳尔·卡斯特罗提起公诉?

2026年5月1日,古巴前总统劳尔·卡斯特罗抵达哈瓦那何塞·马蒂反帝广场,参加国际劳动节集会。—Ramon Espinosa—AP(SeaPRwire) -   据报道,特朗普政府预计将于周三宣布对古巴前总统劳尔·卡斯特罗(Raúl Castro)提出正式指控,此举显然是为了加大对古巴政府的施压。据报道,针对卡斯特罗的联邦起诉书将在迈阿密市中心自由塔(Freedom Tower)举行的纪念仪式上公布,该仪式恰逢古巴独立日。熟悉调查情况的匿名消息人士向 NBC News 表示,大陪审团在听取了针对卡斯特罗的证据后,已决定对其提起诉讼。代理司法部长托德·布兰奇(Todd Blanche)预计将出席此次活动,其他出席人员还包括 FBI 副局长克里斯托弗·雷亚(Christopher Raia)、参议员阿什利·穆迪(Ashley Moody,共和党,佛罗里达州)以及其他官员。起诉卡斯特罗的计划此前由 CBS News 于上周首次报道。目前,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普正考虑对古巴采取军事行动。特朗普在提及委内瑞拉和伊朗时经常提到古巴,而美国军队今年已在这两个国家采取了行动。对 94 岁的古巴已故革命领袖菲德尔·卡斯特罗(Fidel Castro)的弟弟劳尔·卡斯特罗提起诉讼,距离美国强制引渡委内瑞拉总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗(Nicolás Maduro)仅过去几个月。马杜罗面临毒品恐怖主义和共谋进口可卡因等多项指控。对卡斯特罗的潜在起诉似乎也是特朗普政府试图迫使古巴屈服于美国要求的一系列举措的一部分。特朗普对向古巴供应石油的国家征收关税,加剧了古巴长期的能源危机,实际上导致了大规模停电和食品短缺。他的政府还对古巴政权的相关人员和实体实施了新一轮制裁,并提出了对该国进行“友好接管”的想法,他称自己将有“荣幸”监督这一过程。“这是一个真正需要帮助的国家,”特朗普周二在谈到古巴时说。哈瓦那方面多次回击华盛顿的广泛施压行动。古巴总统米格尔·迪亚斯-卡内尔(Miguel Díaz-Canel)周一在社交媒体上批评美国政府:“我们将继续以最坚定、最有力的方式谴责这种旨在扼杀我们人民的种族灭绝式围困。”谁是劳尔·卡斯特罗?劳尔·卡斯特罗与其兄长菲德尔一起,帮助推翻了美国支持的古巴政权,并将国家推向了共产主义革命。从 1959 年起的约五十年间,卡斯特罗一直担任革命武装力量部长,巩固了他在军队和国内的权力,并聚集了一批被称为 Raulistas 的支持者。作为部长,卡斯特罗在 1961 年通过古巴南海岸的 Bahía de Cochinos(猪湾)挫败了美国对该岛的入侵企图。2006 年菲德尔患病时,劳尔·卡斯特罗担任代理总统,并于 2008 年正式接任总统职务。他一直担任总统至 2018 年迪亚斯-卡内尔接任为止,并于 2021 年卸任古巴共产党领导人职务,但至今仍是古巴政坛极具影响力的人物。起诉的内容是什么?具体的指控尚不清楚。但据《迈阿密先驱报》(Miami Herald)5 月 15 日的报道,针对卡斯特罗的起诉将基于 1996 年两架由总部位于迈阿密的人道主义组织“救援兄弟会”(Brothers to the Rescue)运营的飞机被击落事件,当时卡斯特罗担任国防部长。该组织由古巴移民创立,主要在佛罗里达州和古巴之间的海域巡逻,搜寻难民。1996 年 2 月 24 日,三架载有“救援兄弟会”成员的飞机进入了北纬 24 度附近区域。古巴防空部队击落了其中两架飞机,第三架载有该组织领导人的飞机设法逃脱。四人死亡。古巴当局为此次袭击进行了辩护。菲德尔·卡斯特罗在 1996 年接受 TIME 采访时表示,击落飞机的决定是在该组织多次试图在哈瓦那散发批评其政府并敦促古巴人推翻他的传单后做出的。“我们指示武装部队,我们绝不会再容忍这种情况,”菲德尔·卡斯特罗说。多年后的 2001 年,古巴间谍网头目赫拉尔多·埃尔南德斯(Gerardo Hernández)在美国因与击落两架飞机有关的共谋谋杀罪被定罪,并被判处终身监禁。然而,在 2014 年,埃尔南德斯在巴拉克·奥巴马总统任期内的囚犯交换中被送回古巴。一名古巴空军将军和两名飞行员也曾被控谋杀,但从未受审。飞机袭击事件遭到了时任美国总统比尔·克林顿的迅速行动和谴责,他签署了《古巴自由与民主团结法案》(LIBERTAD Act),将对该国的经济禁运法典化。在 2026 年 2 月致总统的一封信中,包括众议员马里奥·迪亚斯-巴拉特(Mario Díaz-Balart,共和党,佛罗里达州)在内的多名议员敦促司法部考虑就击落事件起诉劳尔·卡斯特罗。次月,佛罗里达州总检察长表示,他正在重新启动对 1996 年事件的州级调查。周三的活动是一场纪念 1996 年事件中四名遇难者的仪式。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Banijay Gaming Posts 17% Revenue Jump in Q1 2026
Banijay Gaming Posts 17% Revenue Jump in Q1 2026

(AsiaGameHub) -   Banijay Group announced robust Q1 2026 results, with its sports betting and gaming division achieving 17.3% year-on-year growth. The company behind Betclic and Tipico recorded total group revenue of €1.15 billion for the quarter, representing a 9% increase overall, while gaming revenue rose to €433.1 million. This performance was driven by a 20% rise in unique active players across its betting and gaming platforms. Revenue from casino, poker, and turf betting grew by 27%, supported by the launch of a new in-house online poker platform in France and the expansion of its online casino into Côte d’Ivoire. Sports betting continued to be the largest segment of the company’s gambling operations, with sportsbook revenue up 14% to €326.5 million, fueled by sustained player engagement. Although Banijay’s acquisition of Tipico was finalized after the Q1 reporting period, the company stated that the deal is anticipated to significantly enhance its gaming operations over time. The acquisition also unites three leading European gambling brands under the Banijay Gaming division, following Tipico’s prior purchase of Admiral Group. François Riahi characterized 2026 as a “transformative” year for the company, highlighting both the integration of Tipico and the planned merger of Banijay Entertainment with All3Media. Riahi noted that the gaming division continues to gain from ongoing product innovation and increasing player activity, emphasizing that the company is well positioned heading into the FIFA World Cup 2026 this summer.

Evoke extends Bally’s Intralot takeover bid deadline to June 8
Evoke extends Bally’s Intralot takeover bid deadline to June 8

(AsiaGameHub) -   Bally’s Intralot has been granted an extension by Evoke to declare its intention to submit a formal acquisition bid. Evoke noted that productive talks with Bally’s Intralot were continuing prior to the original May 18 cutoff. The new deadline for Bally’s Intralot to decide on the proposal, which may involve a mix of shares and cash or an all-cash offer, is 5 p.m. UTC on June 30. Evoke expressed a readiness to cooperate on extending this deadline, provided it does not entail an extension for any subsequent offer periods.  Bally’s Intralot CEO Robeson Reeves said: We recognize a powerful chance to apply our operational framework to a much larger enterprise and to potentially overhaul its financial results with synergies that we are distinctively able to provide. This is an opportunity we are following with strong belief. Robinson mentioned that a full acquisition of Evoke by Bally’s Intralot would probably lead to the sale of certain assets to decrease its leverage, identifying the Italy and Mr. Green operations as two potential candidates for divestment.

Dutch regulator warns betting operators ahead of 2026 World Cup
Dutch regulator warns betting operators ahead of 2026 World Cup

(AsiaGameHub) -   The Kansspelautoriteit (KSA), the Dutch gambling authority, has announced intensified monitoring of gambling advertising and betting products in the lead-up to the FIFA World Cup 2026, cautioning operators that any violations will result in immediate enforcement action. The KSA reminded all licensed operators of the existing regulations governing non-targeted gambling advertising and sports event sponsorships. It also reiterated the ongoing prohibition of certain micro-betting markets under Dutch law. The KSA's primary objective during this period is to safeguard vulnerable individuals, particularly young adults, who are likely to be affected by an increase in betting activity driven by major international football events. According to Michel Groothuizen, licensed operators should be aware of their responsibilities to promote responsible gambling practices while simultaneously leveraging the commercial opportunities presented by the World Cup. Groothuizen also noted a significant surge in gambling activity during the 2022 World Cup and the 2024 European Championships, indicating that the upcoming World Cup offers a suitable period for licensed operators to conduct customer acquisition campaigns. The KSA further reaffirmed its commitment to escalating enforcement efforts against unlicensed operators and affiliates that promote illegal gambling services. These renewed warnings from the KSA emerge as the current Dutch coalition government is contemplating a complete ban on all forms of sports advertising, in conjunction with its proposed reforms for the gambling industry. Outside of Europe, Indonesian authorities have issued similar public warnings ahead of the World Cup concerning illegal sports betting, driven by concerns over the continued expansion of illegal online gambling operations within Indonesia.

Sporttrade exits U.S. online betting market shortly after CFTC approval
Sporttrade exits U.S. online betting market shortly after CFTC approval

(AsiaGameHub) -   Sporttrade, a regulated prediction market for sports betting, has announced that it is exiting the U.S. sports betting market just three months after submitting an application to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) for approval. Users in New Jersey were informed that service shutdowns began on May 25 and were advised to withdraw their funds before losing access. Players in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, and Virginia will retain access to the platform until June 25 to withdraw their balances. The platform is scheduled to go fully offline in these states on June 26. The CFTC application was linked to Sporttrade’s exchange model, which offered prediction-style positions on sports events. Alex Kane, founder and CEO of Sporttrade, stated after submitting the application: Today marks the beginning of an incredibly exciting chapter in the Sporttrade journey. The CFTC’s market-based regulatory framework allows Sporttrade to deliver a higher level of efficiency, transparency, and consumer protection compared to what we’ve been able to provide so far. Sporttrade underwent a challenging regulatory process to become the first-ever sports betting exchange in the United States. While competitors Kalshi and Polymarket pursued CFTC approval directly, Sporttrade initially sought approval from state gaming regulators in all five states where it operated. The major obstacle with this approach was that existing regulations were designed for traditional sportsbooks and offered little to no flexibility for exchange-style platforms. After determining that this path would not succeed, Sporttrade applied to the CFTC in April of last year. The process from initial CFTC application to receiving regulatory approval took nearly 12 months and involved separate filings for both the exchange and the clearinghouse.

Aviator LLC sues Betway over unauthorized use of brand visuals in South Africa
Aviator LLC sues Betway over unauthorized use of brand visuals in South Africa

(AsiaGameHub) -   Aviator LLC has initiated formal legal proceedings against Betway in South Africa, alleging that the operator has utilized protected visual elements associated with the AVIATOR brand without proper authorization. Aviator had previously issued a cease and desist notice before filing the lawsuit. As Betway did not respond in a way that resolved the issue, Aviator asserts that it was compelled to take the matter to court, especially as the brand experiences continued expansion in African markets. Aviator CEO George Pruidze commented: Our aim in collaborating with partners has always been to avoid escalating issues into court battles. From the beginning, our focus has been on finding professional and constructive resolutions that protect the shared interests of all parties while preserving the integrity of the AVIATOR brand and its intellectual property. Regrettably, Betway's response and ongoing conduct left us with no viable alternative but to pursue legal action. Aviator indicated that this specific case could result in an injunction prohibiting further use of its assets, in addition to claims for damages and the recovery of profits.

Trusco Nakayama and Fujitsu accelerate personnel transfer decision-making process with data and AI
Trusco Nakayama and Fujitsu accelerate personnel transfer decision-making process with data and AI

Tokyo and Kawasaki, Japan, May 20, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Trusco Nakayama Corporation and Fujitsu Limited today announced the acceleration of Trusco Nakayama's personnel transfer decision-making process. This was achieved by leveraging "Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS", [1] an all-in-one operation platform from Fujitsu's Uvance business model that integrates data utilization with business execution. This initiative involved the rapid development of an application in approximately four months, utilizing AI and mathematical optimization models to propose personnel transfer plans that reflect Trusco Nakayama's diverse HR systems and HR decision-makers’ criteria. Trusco Nakayama’s HR team has been using the tool to support their decision-making since the personnel transfers carried out in April 2026.Overview of the InitiativeGiven the nature of HR operations, where the experience, tacit knowledge, and situational judgment of personnel are crucial, Fujitsu's Forward Deployed Engineers (FDE) worked closely with Trusco Nakayama's HR section to understand and streamline the personnel transfer process. Subsequently, both companies collaborated to accelerate the personnel transfer decision-making process using data and AI, rapidly developing an application that proposes transfer plans considering complex factors to HR personnel. This application features three key characteristics that support HR personnel in reviewing and making decisions on personnel transfer, thereby contributing to the efficiency of Trusco Nakayama's personnel transfer decision-making:1. Centralized management of information from dispersed systemsThis application consolidates HR data from various dispersed systems and Excel files within Trusco Nakayama onto Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS, enabling centralized management. This allows for comprehensive utilization of information necessary for personnel transfer planning, facilitating multi-faceted considerations.2. Creation of personnel transfer plans using mathematical optimization modelsIn some cases, Trusco Nakayama considers transfers for approximately 100 employees in a single personnel reshuffle, resulting in an extremely large number of possible combinations (10^158). The application uses a mathematical optimization model, uniquely developed by Fujitsu for this initiative, to derive optimal personnel transfers that satisfy various conditions, such as years of service, as input criteria from this vast number of combinations. This has reduced the time required to create personnel transfer plans by approximately 98%.3. AI-powered interactive decision supportAn AI chat function for HR personnel has been developed, incorporating Trusco Nakayama's HR information and the daily decision-making perspectives that HR personnel have traditionally emphasized in personnel transfers. HR personnel can interact with the AI to confirm whether the personnel transfer plans generated by the mathematical optimization model have considered all relevant aspects. This allows HR personnel to make final decisions on personnel transfers, taking into account insights gained through dialogue with the AI, such as employee career aspirations and the impact of placements, which might not be fully captured by quantitative data alone.Future PlansTrusco Nakayama will promote strategic personnel transfers based on the initial plans rapidly generated by considering various factors. The company will continue to build a human resource strategy mechanism that fosters the growth of individual employees and the sustainable development of its business, incorporating its unique systems and initiatives.Fujitsu will further strengthen its co-creation approach with FDEs, rapidly advancing projects by deeply engaging with clients' at operational sites. Furthermore, Fujitsu will support data-driven transformations for various management and operational challenges, extending beyond the HR domain, through technology.Additionally, under its Uvance business model, which addresses societal challenges, Fujitsu will realize advanced decision-making in both financial and non-financial aspects through data and AI, driving corporate value enhancement and sustainable growth.[1] Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS:A platform composed of the AI platform "Fujitsu Kozuchi," "Fujitsu Track and Trust"—which enables cross-enterprise and cross-industry data collaboration and traceability through technologies including blockchain, and data platforms such as "Palantir Foundry" and "Microsoft Azure." © Palantir Technologies Inc.About TRUSCO NAKAYAMA CORPORATIONTrusco Nakayama is a specialized wholesaler of indirect materials (PRO TOOL), including work tools, measuring tools and cutting tools used at manufacturing sites.

众议员托马斯·马西在激烈初选中败给特朗普支持的挑战者
众议员托马斯·马西在激烈初选中败给特朗普支持的挑战者

Rep. Thomas Massie 在 2 月 9 日(周一)于司法部办公室外召开新闻发布会,审阅杰弗里·爱泼斯坦(Jeffrey Epstein)案件未删节文件部分。—Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc—Getty Images(SeaPRwire) -   肯塔基州联邦众议员托马斯·马西(Thomas Massie)在共和党初选中败于总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)支持的挑战者埃德·加尔格林(Ed Gallrein);这场胜利彰显了特朗普对党内影响力的强度。美联社(The Associated Press)在周二晚间宣布该选区结果。自 2012 年起代表肯塔基州第四国会选区的马西称,此次初选是“他职业生涯中迄今为止最具挑战性”的一次;特朗普多次对他发起猛烈攻击,并罕见地派遣国防部长皮特·赫格塞思(Pete Hegseth)在选举前夕为加尔格林助选。由于马西作为“特立独行”的议员,在关键外交与国内议题上屡次与总统意见相左,他成为特朗普在中期选举前试图在初选中推翻的共和党对手之一。马西曾牵头推动全面公开与已故性犯罪者杰弗里·艾普斯坦(Jeffrey Epstein)有关的政府文件;他公开反对并投票否决了特朗普的标志性法案《One Big Beautiful Bill》;他批评美国对以色列的财政支持;并一直坚定反对特朗普针对伊朗的战争。加尔格林是一名农民兼退役海豹突击队队员,特朗普早在去年 10 月便对其背书,随后他宣布参选。今年春天,特朗普在肯塔基州北部的一次活动中站在他身边,称其为“真正的美国英雄”,并表示“他是一位伟大的爱国者,他这么做是因为他看到这个人正在对我们国家做什么”。加尔格林将竞选与特朗普紧密绑定,把自己塑造成坚定的忠诚者;他在上周四肯塔基州的一场竞选活动中对民众表示,他“百分之百支持总统以及他正在为扭转国家局面所做的努力”。周一,他称“现在是比以往任何时候都更应站在总统身后的时刻”。与此同时,特朗普在公开场合对马西的批评毫不留情。今年 3 月,总统在该选区核心地带赫本(Hebron)的一个仓库发表讲话时称马西“对共和党不忠”“对肯塔基州人民不忠”,“更重要的是,他对美国不忠,必须尽快被投票赶下台!”然而,马西并未在特朗普的攻击面前退缩。“他们试图把我塑造成反派;他们越是惩罚我,我的影响力就越大。”他在周一的竞选活动上说道。加尔格林多次拒绝与马西进行辩论,并选择不参加两人同时受邀的活动;马西对此频频提及。这位退役海豹突击队队员为自己放弃辩论机会的决定辩护,近几天对选民表示:“我每天都在与他辩论,我像总统一样直接对美国人民说话,没有中间人。”据 AdImpact 数据,这场初选是全国历史上最昂贵的选举之一,广告投放总额超过 3200 万美元。大量广告资金来自支持以色列或与特朗普结盟的团体,它们力图将马西拉下马。在肯塔基州初选前几天,特朗普推翻另一位共和党对手的努力取得胜利:路易斯安那州参议员比尔·卡西(Bill Cassidy)输掉连任初选;卡西曾在特朗普第二次弹劾案中投票定罪,长期招致总统愤怒;路易斯安那州联邦众议员朱莉娅·莱特洛(Julia Letlow)获得总统背书,与另一名候选人进入决选。本月早些时候,特朗普支持的挑战者在印第安纳州立法机构初选中也取得显著胜利,击败多名反对其中期选区重划计划的议员。预计加尔格林将在 11 月的大选中赢得这一稳固的红色选区。库克政治报告(Cook Political Report)将该席位评为“稳固共和党”,属于今年竞争性最低的选区之一。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Google的I/O大会展示了公司如何为AI完全重建——是福是祸

(SeaPRwire) -   前 Google CEO 埃里克·施密特(Eric Schmidt)本周末在一场大学毕业典礼演讲中谈论 AI,却遭到台下学生的一片嘘声。但如果学生们的反应预示着他们对 AI 在日常生活中迅速普及的焦虑或矛盾心理,那么这一信号显然并未传达到 Google 总部。 在周二于加利福尼亚州山景城举行的年度开发者大会上,AI 成为高管们约两小时主题演讲压倒性且几乎是唯一的核心议题。Google 展示了多种将 AI 更深度整合至其广泛使用的系列产品中的新方式,涵盖搜索、电子邮件、生产力软件乃至智能眼镜。 Google 母公司 Alphabet 的 CEO 桑达尔·皮查伊(Sundar Pichai)在 Google I/O 活动开场致辞中赞扬了 AI 在帮助学生备考、协助艺术家和音乐家进入“创作流”方面的作用,称世界正迈向“代理式 AI 时代”。 作为这家市值 4.7 万亿美元公司高度重视 AI 的显著标志,Google 宣布将重新设计其简洁纯白主页中央标志性的搜索框。公司将扩大搜索框尺寸,以更好地容纳用户如今可通过 AI 提出的自然语言查询。用户现在还可通过搜索框调用 AI 代理来执行复杂、持续的研究项目,定制从找房到财经新闻等各类报告。 皮查伊强调,公司正投入巨额资金建设 AI 基础设施,客户对 AI“令牌”(即 AI 数据处理的基本单位)的消耗量也极为庞大。皮查伊表示,Google 目前每月处理 3.2 千万亿个令牌,较一年前的每月 480 万亿个大幅增长。 在皮查伊阐述今年计划支出 1800 亿至 1900 亿美元(2022 年为 310 亿美元)的计划时,巨大的资本支出数字——这一度使部分华尔街投资者担忧——被投射在他身后的大屏幕上。 “我们正采取差异化的全栈式 AI 创新路径,从定制芯片和安全基础架构,到世界级研究与模型,再到触达数十亿用户的产品与平台,”皮查伊说道。 Google IO Google 表示,将于秋季推出一款搭载 AI 功能并配备音频设备的新款眼镜,推出名为“智能 eyewear”的全新产品线。尽管 Google 尚未公布去年 I/O 大会上展示的内置显示屏智能眼镜的上市时间,但公司展示了即将推出的音频眼镜——与三星(Samsung)、Warby Parker 及眼镜制造商 Gentle Monster 合作开发——佩戴者可通过语音交互,在听和说的过程中完成预约、获取路线导航以及查阅电子邮件。 周二常规交易时段,Google 股价下跌约 2%,市场整体亦出现抛售。 全新 Gemini 模型与“Spark”持久型代理 Google 正与 ChatGPT 开发商 OpenAI、Anthropic、Meta 和微软展开激烈竞争,争夺 AI 市场主导地位,各家公司均投入数十亿美元以求领先。尽管 Google 在 2022 年底 OpenAI 开启生成式 AI 革命之初一度措手不及,但凭借其 Gemini 大语言模型的性能表现,现已迎头赶上并成为领跑者。 Google 在周二的活动上发布了新的 Gemini 3.5 模型,以及一个名为“Gemini Omni”的多模态系统,该系统能够根据文本、图像、音频和视频等混合输入生成视频内容。Google 表示,其 AI 概览功能现已覆盖超过 25 亿用户,而 Gemini 应用的月活跃用户数已达 9 亿,凸显出公司如何利用其庞大的现有生态系统,在全球范围内规模化分发新的 AI 能力。 皮查伊表示,Google 目前拥有 13 款用户数超过 10 亿的产品,以及 5 款用户数超过 30 亿的产品。 Google 推出了“Gemini Spark”,这是一种“持久型代理”——意味着该 AI 代理能够持续工作并随时间保留上下文,而非仅限于单次来回交互——旨在跨 Gmail、Docs 和 Chrome 等产品完成任务。此外还推出了名为“Docs Live”的语音驱动文档创建功能,以及“Ask YouTube”这一对话式工具,可依据 YouTube 视频中的特定时刻回答问题。 Google 还计划推出“Universal Cart”,一个可在不同商家和服务间通用的 AI 驱动购物车,以及允许 AI 代理代表用户安全完成购买的新协议。公司还预览了其 Antigravity AI 编码与代理开发平台的更新、Search 中全新的 AI 生成视觉体验,以及对话式 AI 在 Maps、Gmail 和 YouTube 等产品中的更广泛集成。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Musk’s Failed OpenAI Lawsuit Underscores xAI’s Struggles
Musk’s Failed OpenAI Lawsuit Underscores xAI’s Struggles

Elon Musk 于 2026 年 4 月 30 日抵达加利福尼亚州奥克兰的法庭。—Benjamin Fanjoy—Getty Images(SeaPRwire) -   周一,奥克兰一个陪审团仅用不到两小时就一致作出裁决,驳回了 Elon Musk 对 Sam Altman 和 OpenAI 提起的诉讼。在整个庭审过程中,Musk 将此描绘为一场正义之战,旨在防止 Altman “窃取”最初以非营利性质成立的 OpenAI。然而,其他人则将其视为一种更为功利的努力。“现在再搞出些东西来损害竞争对手已经太晚了,”OpenAI 的首席律师 William Savitt 在开庭陈述中说道。 2015 年,出于对 Google 等巨头可能控制未来强大人工智能系统的担忧,Musk 与 Altman 等人共同创立了 OpenAI。2023 年,在与 OpenAI 发生控制权纠纷后,他创立了 xAI。 Musk 曾请求法院推翻 OpenAI 在去年底完成的向营利性机构的转换,并要求向该非营利组织返还约 1500 亿美元。LawAI 高级研究员 Charlie Bullock 表示,这样的决定对 OpenAI 将是“灾难性的”,并会“在全球经济中引发冲击波”。 陪审团认定 Musk 起诉已过三年诉讼时效,这对他和 xAI 而言只是又一次打击。这场诉讼非但没有强化 xAI 在行业中的地位,反而主要暴露出其诸多弱点。今年 2 月,Musk 的 SpaceX 收购了 xAI,据报道该 AI 公司估值约为 2500 亿美元,远低于 OpenAI 最近 8520 亿美元的估值。随后有 50 多名员工离职,加入 Meta 和 Thinking Machines Lab 等竞争对手。该公司旗舰聊天机器人 Grok 的下载量自 1 月以来已下降 60%。而 Grok 的付费订阅用户比例不到 1%,相比之下,约有 6% 的 ChatGPT 用户表示他们为升级版本付费。AI 政策网络(AI Policy Network)政策负责人 Peter Wildeford 向《时代》周刊表示:“xAI 目前在 AI 竞赛中正在落后。”4 月 30 日,Musk 在宣誓作证时再次打击了其 AI 公司的可信度。这位 xAI 首席执行官似乎在庭上承认,xAI “部分”使用 OpenAI 模型的输出来训练自身模型,并暗示“所有 AI 公司”都会使用竞争对手模型的输出。尽管中国 AI 公司因类似做法而受到指责——它们在模型方面落后于西方前沿 AI 公司约八个月——但没有迹象表明其他西方前沿 AI 实验室也这样做。根据 AI 研究机构 Epoch AI 的数据,Grok 落后于 OpenAI 最新的 GPT-5.5 模型约五个月。Wildeford 表示,如果 OpenAI、Anthropic 或 Google DeepMind 使用竞争对手模型的输出进行训练,将“非常令人惊讶”。而在法庭之外,xAI 的举措也削弱了其开发 AI 模型的地位。5 月 6 日,xAI 宣布 Anthropic 将接管其已腾空的 Colossus 1 数据中心的所有算力资源。Musk 曾称 Anthropic “觉醒”且“邪恶”,但随着交易宣布而改口。“我见到的每一位 [Anthropic] 员工都非常称职,并且非常关心做正确的事。没有一个人触发了我的‘邪恶探测器’,”他在 X 上写道。xAI 将计算资源出租给另一家 AI 公司,这一事实表明对其模型的需求不足,而且他们“并不确切知道该如何处理这些数据中心”,Encode AI(一家 AI 倡导组织)总法律顾问 Nathan Calvin 表示。“这对 xAI 来说显然不是好事。” 如果 xAI 在开发 AI 模型的竞赛中落后,Musk 仍可能通过向其他 AI 公司提供算力而从 AI 热潮中获利。Colossus 1 仅用 122 天就建成,展示了 xAI 在此类基础设施项目上的能力。Anthropic 已“表示有兴趣”从 SpaceX 租用轨道算力资源。 据报道,SpaceX(连同其新的 AI 部门)计划于 6 月 12 日进行 IPO,估值可能达到 1.75 万亿美元。但从开发 AI 模型本身转向其他方向,对 Musk 而言将是在财务和个人层面上的又一次打击。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

30年期收益率自金融危机以来首次攀升至新高,“债券狙击手”是否卷土重来?

(SeaPRwire) -   早在1993年,伟大的民主党策略师詹姆斯·卡维尔(James Carville)——以其“这是经济,笨蛋”的妙语而闻名——告诉《华尔街日报》,他过去曾认为,如果存在轮回,他希望转世成为总统、教皇或一名击球率达到400的棒球运动员。 “但现在我想转世成为债券市场,”他说。“你可以恐吓所有人。” 事实上,在2026年春末,债券投资者似乎又在发脾气,就像20世纪90年代初一样,30年期美国国债收益率达到了大衰退前以来的最高点:5.198%。 分析师表示,很容易描绘出1993年的那种叙事,当时债券投资者担心比尔·克林顿会放任赤字失控,从而推高了收益率。但Janney Montgomery Scott的首席固定收益策略师Guy LeBas告诉,这已经不是卡维尔时代的债券市场了。 “我明白,那种‘房间里有几个人说通胀会更高,我们要反抗政府’的故事,我明白为什么这是一个持续的叙事,”LeBas说。但根据LeBas的说法,那个所谓的“债券看守者”(由经济学家Ed Yardeni创造的短语)并不存在。 他表示,原因在于债券市场已经变得过于庞大,并且被养老基金等非自由裁量买家所主导,以至于少数参与者无法操纵信息。他认为,更清晰的解释是自动化的:动量驱动的基金,在价格上涨时买入,在价格下跌时卖出,进入一个股票市场接近历史高位的交易清淡的时期。 然而,并非所有分析师都如此迅速地驳斥这一消息。密切关注债券的投资者本可以预测到这一点,上周美国财政部拍卖了30年期国库券,利率为5%;这对投资者来说是一笔惊人的交易,你可以借钱给政府30年,每年获得约5%的回报。听起来像是免费的钱,但投资者却望而却步;据英国《金融时报》报道,需求“平平”。那次疲软的拍卖,加上周二创纪录的高收益率,都指向同一个方向:投资者预计通胀将缓慢侵蚀他们长期投资的回报。弗吉尼亚大学经济学教授、货币财政互动专家Eric Leeper表示,这不是直接原因,而是更深层的原因。 “哇,”Leeper在听到记者向他读出当前的30年期收益率时回应道。“这一定是对未来通胀存在严重的担忧。” 近几周来,债券市场一直动荡不安,随着市场越来越清楚地认识到霍尔木兹海峡的关闭将比最初预期的持续时间更长,因为伊朗和美国都在努力达成和平协议,债券收益率不断攀升。根据美国银行研究(Bank of America Research)的全球基金经理调查,现在约有三分之二的投资者认为,30年期债券的收益率在未来一年内可能超过6%。 这场溃败可能会促使特朗普政府达成一项与伊朗的和平协议——任何和平协议——因为这场溃败可能会破坏持续数月的、打破纪录的人工智能(AI)的上涨势头。上一次10年期美国国债收益率超过4.6%时,特朗普退出了他的解放日关税,因为它导致了大规模抛售。 但还有一个更直接的触发因素可能让投资者归咎:凯文·沃什(Kevin Warsh)。特朗普提名的美联储主席并非不被信任,而是未知。 人们担心,沃什为了取悦他的老板,可能会在通胀高企、能源冲击的经济中采取措施,而市场正在要求额外的收益率来对冲这种风险。 “不是人们对沃什没有信心,”Leeper说。“而是他们不确定会得到什么。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

DEI专家称该缩写可能”像核辐射一样”敏感,但其背后的商业价值比以往更加强大
DEI专家称该缩写可能”像核辐射一样”敏感,但其背后的商业价值比以往更加强大

(SeaPRwire) -   在过去一年里,公司缩减或取消了对多元、公平和包容(DEI)的承诺,部分原因是受到了唐纳德·特朗普总统的压力——然而专家表示,那些坚持到底的组织将是最终的赢家。 周二,在佐治亚州亚特兰大举行的职场创新峰会上,两位前首席多元化官就为何尽管受到现任政府的批评,DEI 仍然重要发表了看法。 多元、公平和包容(DEI)是指一系列组织实践,旨在建立反映各种背景的员工队伍,确保公平获得机会,并培育来自不同人口群体的员工能够充分做出贡献的职场文化。在实践中,这可以采取包容性招聘和雇佣流程、导师和赞助计划、薪酬公平审计、员工资源小组、供应商多元化举措,以及旨在减少绩效评估和晋升中偏见的管理培训等形式。 BP 和 Barclays 的前首席多元化官、现任 Dempsey Inclusion Group 创始人的 Ray Dempsey 表示,美国企业界转向污名化“DEI”这一缩写,是由那些不理解它的人领导的。他补充说,虽然 DEI 的地位已经动摇,但其背后的工作与标签无关。相反,DEI 背后的努力实际上是为了“为企业创造价值”。 他说,那些继续强调 DEI 的公司明白这一点。 “他们明白,这实际上不仅是一件好事或正确的事,不仅是社会当务之急,更是真正的商业当务之急,”Dempsey 说。 这并不是说 DEI 的格局没有改变。继 2020 年乔治·弗洛伊德被杀后,企业领导层争先恐后地实施 DEI 政策并聘请员工监督这些政策。根据 LinkedIn 的一项研究,在 2019 年至 2022 年间,首席多元化官的比例增加了 169%。 然而,这种增长现在已经放缓。根据 LinkedIn 的研究,在 2021 年至 2022 年间,聘请的首席多元化官比例下降了约 4%。Dempsey 说,他亲身经历了 DEI 的退缩。 他说,2024 年他从 Barclays 首席多元化官职位退休后,很难找到预期的那么多进入企业董事会任职的机会。 “对于企业董事会候选人来说,首席多元化官的头衔远不如几年前那么有价值,”他说。 Nike 前首席多元化官、现任 DEI 公司 The Rainbow Disruption CEO 的 Jarvis Sam 表示,在弗洛伊德被杀后的几年里,公司试图成为“所有人的所有事”,组织内部激进主义和倡导之间的界限变得模糊,这可能导致了 DEI 的退缩。 现任政府的敌意也起到了推波助澜的作用。在他第二任期的最初几天,特朗普签署了一系列针对 DEI 的行政命令。他取消了联邦政府各部门中涉及 DEI 工作的职位,取消了各机构的 DEI 目标,并撤销了之前要求联邦承包商维持平权行动计划的一项行政命令。平等就业机会委员会(EEOC)也起诉了包括 New York Times 和 Nike 在内的公司,主席 Andrea Lucas 正在追究“非法的受 DEI 驱动的种族和性别歧视”案件。 尽管面临这种压力,Dempsey 指出,但推动 DEI 努力并创建 EEOC 的同一部法案——1964 年《民权法案》——并没有改变:“它仍将指导选择和活动,并将塑造我们管理和减轻人才风险的方式,”他说。 Sam 补充说,围绕 DEI 的推动力在美国可能发生了转变,但在国际上并没有。在欧洲,与平权行动相关的法规仍然存在。例如,德国强制要求企业董事会实现性别多元化目标。根据 2024 年开始实施的欧盟《企业可持续发展报告指令》,部分公司还需要报告其解决歧视、多元化和包容以及人权的政策。 Sam 说,因此,彻底转变 DEI 策略会使公司面临风险。 虽然批评者经常将 DEI 定性为纯粹的社会或政治项目,但大量研究表明,多元化和包容性的工作场所与更强的业务成果相关联。McKinsey 长期以来的“多元化至关重要”系列研究一直发现,在执行团队的种族和性别多样性方面排名前四分之一的公司,其盈利能力更有可能超过同行,其最新一期报告指出,多元化程度最高的公司财务表现优异的可能性要高出 39%。 其他研究,包括来自 BCG 和 Harvard Business Review 的研究,将多元化的领导团队与更高的创新收入和更好的决策联系起来,而 Gallup 则将包容性文化与员工敬业度和留存率的可衡量提升联系起来——这两项指标直接与生产力和底线绩效相关。Dempsey 说他对 DEI 的未来持乐观态度,并相信它未来仍将是许多公司的优先事项。他说,那些表明致力于吸引多元化员工队伍并调整其战略以适应日益多元化的美国和世界的组织,最终将在市场上获胜,而那些不认真对待 DEI 的组织则无法做到这一点。 “那些发出信号表示这不重要、这不是优先事项的人,将会输掉,”他说。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

德克萨斯州总检察长、共和党联邦参议员候选人肯·帕克斯顿于2026年3月27日在德克萨斯州格雷普韦恩举行的保守党政治行动会议(CPAC)罗纳德·里根晚宴上发言。——谢尔比·陶伯–彭博社/盖蒂图片社(SeaPRwire) -   唐纳德·特朗普总统周二宣布,在德克萨斯州竞争激烈的共和党参议院初选中,他最终决定支持州总检察长肯·帕克斯顿,以挑战现任参议员约翰·科宁。“肯是一位真正的MAGA战士,他‘一直’为德克萨斯州做出巨大贡献,并将继续在美国参议院中这样做,”特朗普在Truth Social上表示,并补充说“帕克斯顿经历了很多,其中许多情况都非常不公平。”特朗普还讽刺了科宁,称这位长期担任德克萨斯州参议员的人在他“处境艰难时”并未给予支持。“约翰在支持我参加共和党提名历史性竞选以及随后的总统大选时都非常迟缓,而这两次选举都以压倒性优势获胜,”特朗普解释道。在3月举行的德克萨斯州共和党初选中,帕克斯顿和科宁均未获得超过50%的选票,因此两人进入决选。特朗普的背书距离5月26日的决选仅剩一周时间。德克萨斯南方大学芭芭拉·乔丹公共政策研究与调查中心周一发布的一项最新民调显示,无论是科宁还是帕克斯顿对阵该席位的民主党提名人詹姆斯·塔利亚科,选情都将势均力敌。在科宁与塔利亚科的对决中,45%的潜在选民表示将投票给科宁,44%支持塔利亚科;而在帕克斯顿与塔利亚科的对决中,两人均将获得45%的选票。作为特朗普的坚定支持者,帕克斯顿在竞选参议员之前就已面临一系列政治和个人丑闻。2015年,帕克斯顿因被指控欺诈投资者而被起诉。他对此表示不认罪,这场法律纠纷持续了九年,期间他两次成功连任州总检察长。2024年,帕克斯顿与检方达成和解,同意支付近30万美元的赔偿金并完成100小时的社区服务,以换取指控被撤销。2020年,在该案件尚未审结期间,帕克斯顿还被其八名高级职员指控收受一名房地产开发商的贿赂并滥用职权。这些助手向联邦调查局(FBI)举报了帕克斯顿,FBI随后展开调查。帕克斯顿后来解雇了四名举报人,导致他们以报复为由提起诉讼,并最终获得660万美元的赔偿。FBI的调查以及举报人诉讼促使德克萨斯州众议院于2023年以20项罪名弹劾帕克斯顿,但州参议院随后以16项罪名宣告其无罪,并驳回了其余四项指控。与此同时,据美国联合通讯社报道,美国司法部于2024年决定不对帕克斯顿提出指控,这实际上结束了联邦政府对相关指控的调查——该部门在接管德克萨斯州当局移交的案件两年后作出此决定。在帕克斯顿的州立法机构弹劾审判期间,针对他的不忠指控也成为焦点。弹劾检察官声称,涉嫌贿赂州总检察长的房地产开发商雇佣了帕克斯顿的女友,以便两人能在奥斯汀秘密会面。帕克斯顿的妻子安吉拉·帕克斯顿是州参议院议员,她于2025年以“圣经理由”提出离婚。帕克斯顿周二在社交媒体上发文感谢总统的背书,并承诺将在参议院为特朗普而战。“没有人比特朗普总统更努力地为美国人民奋斗,我期待在参议院支持他的‘美国优先’议程!”帕克斯顿写道。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

高盛:美国就业市场目前比ChatGPT推出时更健康。没错,真的如此
高盛:美国就业市场目前比ChatGPT推出时更健康。没错,真的如此

(SeaPRwire) -   你知道这一套说辞:AI 是反派,是所有大学生在毕业典礼上喝倒彩的东西,是劳动力市场毁灭的带来者。自 2022 年末 ChatGPT 亮相以来,焦虑不断累积,对白领工作消亡的预测也层出不穷。 但近四年后,Goldman Sachs 的经济学家给出了一个令人意外的更新。劳动者与空缺职位之间的错配——衡量劳动力市场压力的一项关键指标——实际上已经 改善,降至疫情前水平以下。换句话说,交通拥堵正在缓解。 而颇具悖论意味的是,原因是 AI 本身。 两项研究,两种叙事 Goldman 的这一发现并非没有争议。纽约联储的经济学家在同一天发布了他们自己的分析,结论是:AI 总体暴露度与职位发布数量下降之间几乎看不出关联——而高暴露角色的职位发布下降实际上早在 ChatGPT 出现之前就已开始。这两方并非在彼此否定,而是站在同一条高速公路的不同位置,描述他们所看到的拥堵程度。 Goldman 将 AI 区分为 替代 劳动者的 AI 与 辅助 劳动者的 AI,而纽约联储则把暴露度当作一个加总的单一指标来衡量。Goldman 看的是哪些具体“车道”正在变空以及为何变空;纽约联储 测量的是整体拥堵程度,并发现它并不比以前更严重。 这种方法论上的选择,导致对劳动力市场究竟是在更自由地运转,还是在悄然改道并可能在将来形成新的瓶颈,得出了截然不同的结论。 在周四发布的一份研究报告中,Goldman Sachs 经济学家 Peng Elsie 和 Walker Ronnie 认为,这种区分至关重要——它也解释了为何更粗略的分析会一再错过信号。 “我们的职业层面错配指数已从 2022 年的峰值回落,目前略低于疫情前水平,”他们写道,随后对接下来可能发生的情况发出了警告。 拥堵如何形成,又如何缓解 要理解 AI 为何能改善一项它本应摧毁的劳动力市场指标,首先得明白“错配”到底是什么。Goldman 经济学家使用的是 Lazear-Spletzer 错配指数的一个版本,用以衡量需要跨职业重新分配才能使劳动力市场紧张度均衡的求职者占比。当这一数值偏高时,意味着找工作的人与空缺职位的分布并不匹配——这在结构上效率低下,对劳动者和雇主都不利。 可以把错配理解为劳动力市场的“交通拥堵”:不是车太少或路太少,而是错误的车开上了错误的路。2022 年时,这场拥堵创下了纪录:医院找不到护士,而科技公司办公室却半空着,求职者比工位还多。ChatGPT 登场时,疫后劳动力市场本就高度扭曲:一些部门急需人手,另一些部门却申请者过剩。 根据 Peng 和 Walker 的研究,那些最容易被 AI 替代、核心任务能够被自动化的职业——如信息文员、秘书和销售代表——当时本就面临严重的用工短缺。当 AI 开始减少这些领域的职位空缺时,它并没有制造新的失业,而是在很大程度上帮助弥合了供需之间的缺口。 “AI 部署的第一阶段在时机上具有幸运的一面,”Peng 和 Walker 写道,“因为它恰好撞上了这些高度暴露于 AI 的职业的用工荒。” 对计算机与信息类工作者、销售代表和办公室主管而言,这一效应最为明显。Peng 和 Walker 对接下来的阶段做出了预测:“AI 部署的下一个阶段,很可能需要劳动者进行更多适应。” 岗位去了哪里:当交通被重新引导 自 2019 年以来,美国职位空缺的结构已经发生显著变化。交通正在“实体在场”的车道上积聚——医疗、食品准备、维护——而在 AI 最先进入的“办公室”车道上快速流失。与 2019 年相比,前者增加了约 30 万个空缺,后者减少了约 45 万个。 Goldman 的统计分析给出了具体数字:一个职业的 AI 替代暴露度每增加一个标准差,其职位空缺数量就会比该职业 2019 年的平均水平减少 12%。这一效应在计算机与信息类工作者、销售代表和办公室主管身上最为明显。 隐患 Goldman 并不认为 AI 对劳动力的冲击被高估了。相反,这份报告读起来更像是一种披着宽慰外衣的警告。 有利的错配趋势反映了一组特定且难以复制的条件:AI 恰好在它最具威胁的职业已经难以招满时出现,这才形成了意外的缓冲。下一阶段的 AI 部署——更广泛、更深入,触及那些并非原本就供过于求的职业——将不会有同样的内置缓冲。 对年轻劳动者和转行者而言,适应窗口可能已经在收窄。职位空缺正在增加的行业——医疗、食品准备、体力维护——更难在没有资质或无法实体到场的情况下进入。而正在流失空缺的岗位,恰恰曾是大学毕业生最容易进入的跳板:办公室职位、销售岗位、与技术相关的支持性工作。 正在被空缺填满的“车道”——床边护理、厨房炒菜、暖通维修——需要人到场、需要资质、需要多年培训才能进入;而正在流失空缺的岗位,曾是你带着一台笔记本电脑和一张大学文凭就能进入的领域。对于被教导要“聪明工作,而不是辛苦工作”的一代人来说,前方的绕行路线比任何错配指数所能反映的都要漫长。 在撰写本报道过程中,记者使用生成式 AI 作为研究工具。编辑在发布前核实了信息的准确性。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
