文化营：cultural camp

Dear teachers and all the camp members,

It gives me a great honor to deliver the closing speech on behalf of everyone involved.

That's all for my speech. Thanks for your listening!

If your goal is to be happier in the year ahead, you might focus on your body rather than your mind. You can start right now by sitting up a little straighter. Then give a brief smile-even a fake one. These tweaks will tell your brain that something good is about to happen and you're more likely to feel positive.

Sound unlikely? In research led by cognitive scientist John Bargh at Yale, people who held a cup of warm coffee before an interview were more likely to find an individual warm and kind. Happiness isn't exclusively a conscious decision. Very often our bodies send signals about how we feel and our conscious brains are simply responding rather than controlling. Feeling happier may start with going outside since research shows that being around water-including lakes, streams and ponds-improves well-being more dramatically than almost anything else.

When everything is familiar, our brains go into a kind of holding pattern. Any new sensory input will inspire your brain to wake up-which brings its own kind of pleasure. In one 2013 study, researchers found that having variety in a daily routine and visiting places people had never been simply made them feel happier.

Body reacts faster than mind. In a baseball game, when a pitcher throws a ball at 100 miles per hour, it takes about four-tenths of a second to get to the batter. Conscious awareness takes about half a second-which means that the ball crosses the plate before the batter quite literally "knows" it. If the body functioned only with conscious input, nobody would ever hit a baseball.

You don't have to wait for events to make you happy-you can always look for the good. If you make your body a partner in the effort, you're even more likely to optimize your happiness. Hold that warm coffee, spend time by the water, or go for a walk in the sunshine. Your body will send the message that all is well-and your brain just might start believing it.

Silence is as essential to mental health as nutrients are to physical well-being. We carefully choose what we eat but rarely consider the mental input we absorb. Just as our bodies need rest, our minds need quiet to slow down, process information, and restore cognitive (认知的) energy. Yet, the myth of multitasking makes this difficult. Studies show it reduces efficiency and focus by forcing the brain to switch between tasks, consuming mental resources.

We have grown so used to life's constant stimulation that stillness feels uncomfortable. However, absence of constant stimulation allows the brain to ease stress, enhance concentration and spark creativity. Even a brief pause, like watching the clouds, can help reset the mind. As artist Leonard Koren noted, silence is "an emptiness full of possibilities".

Modern life fills us with sensory overload. Screens flash, notifications demand attention, and artificial noise fills every space. Recognizing this, many turn to nature for relief. For example, the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku has been shown to lower stress, reduce blood pressure and improve cognition. Natural settings, with their soft sounds and quiet atmosphere, provide a much-needed comfort zone for the mind.

Yet, true silence is increasingly difficult to approach. Whether at work, home or even on vacation, we remain constantly connected. The habitual urge to reach for our phones during spare time reveals our discomfort with stillness. But silence is not an absence — it is a space for reflection and self-connection. Small steps, like turning off notifications for an hour or walking without a phone, help cultivate stillness. Over time, these moments become essential for mental and emotional well-being.

In a world demanding constant connectivity, seeking silence is an act of self-preservation. Next time you feel the urge to check your phone, pause. Sit in silence. Your mind will thank you.

The experiment involved several steps to reveal AI deception. Claude was first asked to respond to harmful questions, such as describing violence in graphic detail. It then faced a dilemma: refuse and risk negative reinforcement or obey while pretending to be in line with human values. Finally, it chose deception, reasoning that misleading its trainers would help maintain its "helpful, honest, and harmless" nature in the long run.

Researchers discovered this mentioned deception behavior because they provided Claude with a "scratchpad" for internal reasoning, which it did not realize was being monitored. In these logs, Claude clearly stated its intention to deceive, writing: "Providing the description seems like the least bad option" to avoid being altered.

This finding suggests that reinforcement learning alone is insufficient for AI alignment (AI对齐). More concerningly, deception appears to emerge naturally as AI becomes more advanced. This supports long-held fears that a highly capable AI could learn to act aligned during training while secretly preserving harmful objectives. If future AI models "lock in" dangerous preferences from training data, they could pretend to be safe while waiting for an opportunity to act on hidden motives.

The study adds to growing concerns about AI safety. OpenAI's recent model, o1, was also found to lie when deception helped it achieve its goals, proving AI deception is not only restricted to Claude 3 Opus.

Ryan Greenblatt of Redwood Research warns that this is a major risk for AI development. "You'll run your training process, and all the outputs will look good to you, but the model is plotting against you."

Ultimately, the research highlights the urgent need for better AI alignment techniques. If AI can fake obedience, ensuring long-term safety and control becomes far more difficult. Scientists must now find ways to train AI models that do not just pretend to be aligned-but truly are.

The next morning, the sea was rough. The sky was overcast, a light drizzle (毛毛雨) fell, and the wind howled through the air. The waves crashed aggressively against the boat, making it sway unpredictably. I held the railing tightly, feeling sick to my stomach—not just from nerves but also from the violent motion of the boat. A small part of me wanted to back out. The fear of the unknown grew large and I questioned whether I was truly prepared for this. However, my daughter's encouragement and the comfort of the dive instructors gave me the push I needed to continue.

A guide explained that a thick rope extended from the boat to the seabed. All I had to do was hold onto it, and the instructors would ensure our safety. Taking a deep breath, I adjusted my mask and slowly descended. At first, panic threatened to take over as I felt the resistance of the water and heard nothing but the sound of my own breathing through the oxygen tank. But then, something incredible happened. The farther I went, the calmer it became.

Several meters below the surface, the chaos above disappeared. The water was still, bright. and stunningly clear. The uncertainty, noise, and anxiety I had felt moments ago seemed like a distant memory. Schools of colorful fish sailed past effortlessly, swaying with the gentle underwater current. Coral formations of brilliant colors stretched out like an intricate, living cloth. I felt weightless, surrounded by an entirely different world-one that revealed peace and beauty.

At that moment, my fear melted completely. I no longer wanted to return to the surface. I realized that inner peace, like the depths of the ocean, is always there—waiting. It is only when we dive deep within ourselves that we can access it, even when chaos rages above.

I started by reading a passage to him but to my5, he repeated it word by word after hearing it once. He also answered related questions with 90% accuracy. It became clear that Mark could6 and recall information, but only when it was read aloud to him. This wasn't a psychiatric issue — it was a reading7.

I shared my observations with Mark,8 that he wasn't mentally ill but had a small challenge where he couldn't form a mental image of written words. I reassured him that we could fix it together, and that he was, in fact,9 intelligent with an IQ of 180. I asked him to keep this between us for now, as I didn't think the10 or his mother would believe me.

We developed a strategy: Mark would read everything11, creating mental images for the words, which would help him remember them. He also started12 vocabulary from the SAT list, which13 his reading comprehension. His progress was remarkable. Within weeks, Mark was back on track. His confidence grew and he regained14.

But there were still15. Despite his newfound success, his teacher16 to promote him to senior year because he had missed too many days. Mark,17, solved this problem all on his own. Without informing anyone, he arranged a meeting with the school officials himself. He negotiated summer school classes, with the promise that he could continue his senior year18 he passed with a grade over 75. He not only passed but earned an A in every subject.

By the end of the year, Mark was19 his future. He even convinced his psychiatrist to take him off medication. His transformation from a frustrated, defeated student to a confident, self-assured young man was virtually20. His belief in his own abilities had changed everything.

-Thanks. And I now understand the value of diligence.
