接下来是一档内容丰富紧凑的节目。
Let us dive into our first major story.
让我们深入探讨我们的第一个重大新闻。
Yesterday, Apple held its highly anticipated annual product launch.
昨天，苹果举行了备受期待的年度新品发布会。
This event was historically significant for two major reasons.
由于两个主要原因，这次活动具有历史性重大的意义。
It was the first keynote led by Apple's new CEO, John Ternus, and it saw the official debut of
这是由苹果新任 CEO 约翰·特纳斯主导的首次主题演讲，它见证了...的正式首秀
Apple's first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, starting at $2 ,000.
苹果首款可折叠手机 iPhone Duo，起售价为 2,000 美元。
Wait, did you say $2 ,000?
等等，你是说 2,000 美元吗？
Sophia, that is 2 ,000 reasons for me to keep holding on to my current phone.
索菲亚，那可是我有 2,000 个理由继续留用我现在的手机。
That is incredibly expensive.
那真是极其昂贵。
And what is this about a new CEO?
还有关于新 CEO 是怎么回事？
What happened to Tim Cook? Yes.
蒂姆·库克发生了什么？是的。
Tim Cook has stepped down, and John Ternus, the former hardware engineering chief, has officially
蒂姆·库克已经卸任，前硬件工程主管约翰·特纳斯已经正式地
taken the helm as the new CEO.
作为新任 CEO 接管掌舵。
This event was his big moment to show the world his vision for Apple.
这次活动是他向世界展示他对苹果愿景的大好时刻。
And he did so by finally entering the foldable phone market with the iPhone Duo.
他通过带着 iPhone Duo 终于进军折叠屏手机市场实现了这一点。
All right.
好吧。
So Apple finally made a folding phone.
所以苹果终于做了一款折叠手机。
But what makes it a duo?
但究竟是什么让它被称为双重呢？
Does it have two screens, or is it just one giant screen that bends?
它是有两个屏幕，还是只有一块可以弯曲的巨型屏幕？
It is actually both.
实际上两者兼有。
It features two ultra -thin flexible screens.
它配备了两块超薄的柔性屏幕。
When the device is closed, you use the cover screen just like a regular iPhone.
当设备关闭时，你可以像使用常规 iPhone 一样使用盖板屏幕。
But when you open it up like a book, the internal flexible screen unfolds into a massive, seamless
但当你像打开一本书一样打开它时，内部的可弯曲屏幕会展开成一个巨大且无缝的
tablet -sized display.
平板电脑般大小的显示屏。
Flexible screens?
柔性屏幕？
Sophia, can you explain what flexible actually means in this context?
索菲亚，你能解释一下在这种语境下“柔性”到底是什么意思吗？
Because when I think of glass, I think of something hard and brittle.
因为当我想到玻璃时，我想到的是坚硬而易碎的东西。
How can a glass screen bend without shattering into a million pieces?
玻璃屏幕怎么能在不碎成千万碎片的情况下弯曲呢？
That's a great question.
这是一个很好的问题。
Flexible, in technology, means something that can bend, fold, or stretch repeatedly without breaking.
在技术领域，“柔性”意味着某物可以弯曲、折叠或拉伸，且反复操作也不会破裂。
Apple is using a highly advanced material called ultra -thin glass, which is chemically treated to be
苹果正在使用一种被称为超薄玻璃的高级材料，这种材料经过化学处理，
so incredibly thin that it behaves almost like plastic, allowing it to bend at the hinge without snapping.
变得极其薄，以至于表现得几乎像塑料一样，使其能够在铰链处弯曲而不会折断。
Ah, science is like magic sometimes.
啊，科学有时就像魔法一样。
But at $2 ,000, Apple is entering a market where Samsung has already been dominant for years.
但在2000美元的价格上，苹果正在进入一个三星多年来一直占主导地位的市场。
In fact, Samsung just dropped the price of its new Galaxy Z Fold 8 to $1 ,650 to make things harder
事实上，三星刚刚将其新款 Galaxy Z Fold 8 的价格下调至 1650 美元，以此来增加对手的难度
for Apple. Exactly.
给苹果制造麻烦。一点没错。
Samsung is enjoying a bit of a victory lap, basically saying, we have eight generations to perfect
三星正在享受胜利带来的喜悦，基本上是在说：我们花了八代产品来完善
this technology, while Apple is only on generation one.
这项技术，而苹果才刚刚处于第一代。
However, industry analysts expect the iPhone duo to be a massive hit, because millions of iOS users
然而，行业分析师预计 iPhone 系列将大获成功，因为数以百万计的 iOS 用户
have been waiting specifically for an Apple foldable.
一直在专门等待一款苹果的折叠屏手机。
Well, it's certainly a high -stakes move for John Turnus' first big launch.
嗯，对于约翰·特纳斯的第一次重大发布来说，这无疑是一场高风险的举措。
Let's see if people are willing to empty their savings accounts for it. Indeed.
让我们看看人们是否愿意为了它倾囊而出。确实如此。
Now let us move from high -end hardware to an urgent software security alert.
现在让我们从高端硬件转向一条紧急的软件安全警报。
Researchers have discovered a highly dangerous AI -developed computer worm that has been targeting
研究人员发现了一种高度危险的 AI 开发的计算机蠕虫，它一直在针对
WeChat users on both Android and iPhone devices.
安卓和 iPhone 设备上的微信用户。
Oh, a computer worm.
哦，计算机蠕虫。
I know that's a type of malicious software that spreads by itself.
我知道那是一种 可以自我传播的恶意软件。
But what makes this one so special and dangerous?
但究竟是什么让这一个如此特别和危险？
What makes it terrifying is that it is a zero -click exploit.
让人感到恐惧的是，它是一个零点击漏洞利用。
Wait, let me stop you right there.
等等，先打住一下。
Zero -click?
零点击？
Sophia, normally we are told to be safe online by not clicking on suspicious links or downloading
索菲亚，通常我们被告知要为了上网安全而不点击可疑链接或下载
strange email attachments.
奇怪的电子邮件附件。
Are you telling me I can get hacked without clicking on anything at all? Precisely.
你是说我什么都不点就会被黑？正是如此。
A zero -click exploit is a cyberattack that requires absolutely no interaction from the victim.
零点击漏洞利用是一种完全不需要受害者任何互动的网络攻击。
In this case, the worm infects your phone through an incoming WeChat voice or video call.
在这种情况下，该蠕虫通过接入的微信语音或视频通话感染你的手机。
You do not even have to answer the call.
你甚至不需要接听电话。
Just the physical act of your phone receiving the call and ringing allows the worm to exploit a
仅仅是你的手机接收电话并响铃这一物理行为，就能让蠕虫利用
hidden flaw in the system and take over your account.
系统中隐藏的缺陷并接管你的账号。
No way!
绝无可能！
That is like a digital vampire.
那就像是一个数字吸血鬼。
In folklore, a vampire can only enter your home if you invite them in, which is like clicking a bad link.
在民间传说中，吸血鬼只有在你邀请他们时才能进入你的家，这就像点击恶意的链接。
But this zero -click worm is like a burglar who just rings your doorbell, and the moment the bell
但这个零点击蠕虫就像一个只按你门铃的窃贼，在铃声响起的
rings, your front door automatically unlocks and lets them inside.
瞬间，你的正门就会自动解锁并让他们进来。
That is an exceptionally accurate metaphor, Oliver.
奥利弗，这是一个非常准确的比喻。
Yes, it completely bypasses the user's defense.
是的，它完全绕过了用户的防御。
Once the worm is inside, it secretly downloads your personal data and automatically uses your
一旦蠕虫进入内部，它就会秘密地下载你的个人数据，并自动使用你的
account to make silent, invisible calls to your contacts to spread itself further, just like a
账号向你的联系人打出静音且无形的电话来进一步自我传播，就像一个
contagious biological virus.
具有传染性的生物病毒。
That is incredibly sneaky.
这真是太诡诈了。
And you mentioned it was developed using AI? Yes.
你提到过它是用人工智能开发的？是的。
Cybersecurity firms warn that the attackers used artificial intelligence coding tools to analyze
网络安全公司警告说，攻击者利用人工智能编程工具来分析
WeChat's code and automatically find hidden security gaps.
微信的代码并自动发现隐藏的安全漏洞。
It shows that AI is becoming a double -edged sword, used by both security experts and hackers.
这表明人工智能正在成为一把双刃剑，被安全专家和黑客共同使用。
So what can we do to keep our phones safe?
那么我们能做些什么来保持我们的手机安全呢？
Do I need to delete my account?
我需要删除我的账号吗？
Fortunately, no.
幸运的是，不需要。
Tencent, the company that owns WeChat, has already released an urgent security update to patch this vulnerability.
拥有微信的腾讯公司已经发布了紧急安全更新来修复这个漏洞。
The absolute best thing our listeners can do right now is to open their app store and make sure
我们的听众现在能做的绝对最好的事情就是打开应用商店并确认
their WeChat app is updated to the very latest version.
他们的微信应用程序已更新至最新版本。
Regular updates are your strongest digital shield.
定期更新是你最强大的数字盾牌。
Updating my apps immediately.
立即更新我的应用。
Thanks for the warning, Sophia.
感谢你的警告，索菲娅。
Now, let us switch gears to a much more positive and creative use of AI. Yes.
现在，让我们转而关注人工智能更积极、更有创意的使用方式。是的。
Let us look at OpenAI's latest release, ChatGPT Images 2 .5.
让我们来看看 OpenAI 最新发布的 ChatGPT Images 2.5。
This updated system generates much sharper details, edits images more precisely, and introduces a
这个更新后的系统能生成更清晰的细节，更精确地编辑图像，并引入了一个
highly creative new feature called Sketch. Sketch?
非常有创意的全新功能，叫做草图。草图？
That sounds interesting.
听起来很有趣。
What does it actually do?
它实际上是做什么的？
The Sketch feature allows you to draw a rough, simple outline directly on your screen, using your
草图功能允许你直接在屏幕上画出一个粗略、简单的轮廓，使用你的
finger or a digital pen.
手指或数码触控笔。
Then, you type a text prompt describing what you want, and the AI uses your rough drawing as a
然后，你输入一段描述你想要内容的文本提示词，人工智能就会把你粗略的画作作为
structural blueprint to generate a beautiful, highly detailed artwork.
结构蓝图，生成一件美丽且高度细致的艺术作品。
Oh, wow!
哦，哇！
My drawing skills are terrible.
我的绘画技巧非常糟糕。
If I draw a stick figure and a messy circle, can ChatGPT turn that into a professional illustration
如果我 画一个简笔画小人和一个杂乱的圆圈，ChatGPT 能把它变成专业插图
of an astronaut on the moon?
关于月球上的宇航员吗？
It can do exactly that.
它正是可以做到这一点。
Before this update, when you asked an AI to generate an image, the AI decided the entire layout.
在这次更新之前，当你让 AI 生成图像时，AI 决定了整个布局。
But now, with Sketch, you control the composition. Composition?
但现在有了草图，你可以控制构图。构图？
That's a great word for our English learners.
这对我们的英语学习者来说是一个很棒的单词。
What does it mean in art?
它在艺术中是什么意思？
Composition refers to how different elements are arranged in a picture.
构图指的是不同的元素如何在画作中进行排列。
By drawing a simple sketch, you are telling the AI exactly where to place the astronaut, where to
通过画一张简单的草图，你就在准确地告诉人工智能要把宇航员放在哪里，把
put the moon, and how big the spaceship should be.
月亮放在哪里，以及宇宙飞船应该有多大。
It makes the creative process a true collaboration between human control and AI eragination.
它让创作过程变成了人类控制与人工智能想象力之间真正的合作。
I love that.
我喜欢这个。
It means we are not just passive users typing words anymore.
这意味着我们不再只是打字的被动使用者。
We are actively directing the visual flow.
我们正在积极主动地引导视觉流向。
That's a game -changer for digital artists and absolute beginners alike.
无论是对于数字艺术家还是绝对的初学者来说，这都是一个颠覆性的变革。
It really is.
确实如此。
It lowers the barrier to artistic expression, allowing anyone with an idea to bring it to life visually. Fantastic!
它降低了艺术表达的门槛，让任何有想法的人都能在视觉上赋予其生命。太棒了！
Now, speaking of getting creative with our hands, let's move on to our final story of the day, which
现在，说到用我们的双手发挥创意，让我们转向今天的最后一个故事，它
takes us away from screens and into the great outdoors. Yes.
将带领我们远离屏幕，走向广阔的户外。是的。
A wonderful new scientific report published by the BBC explains why getting your hands dirty in the
BBC 发布的一份绝妙的新科学报告解释了为什么把手伸进
soil is actually incredibly beneficial for both your immune system and your mental health.
土壤中弄脏，实际上对你的免疫系统和心理健康都极其有益。
Getting my hands dirty?
把我的手弄脏？
Sophia, my mother spent my entire childhood yelling at me to wash my hands and stay out of the mud.
索菲娅，我妈妈整个童年时期都在冲我喊，要我洗手，远离泥巴。
Is science now telling me that she was wrong?
科学现在是在告诉我她错了吗？
Well, your mother wanted to protect you from harmful germs, which is important.
嗯，你妈妈想保护你免受有害细菌的伤害，这很重要。
But scientists are finding that being too clean can actually weaken our health.
但科学家们发现，太干净实际上会削弱我们的健康。
When we garden or touch natural soil, we expose ourselves to millions of friendly, harmless bacteria.
当我们做园艺或接触天然土壤时，我们会把自己暴露在数以百万计友好、无害的细菌中。
One key bacterium is called Mycobacterium vaccae.
一种关键的细菌被称为母牛分枝杆菌。
Mycobacterium vaccae.
母牛分枝杆菌。
That's quite a tongue twister.
那还真是一个绕口令。
What does this tiny organism do to us?
这个微小的生物会对我们产生什么作用？
When we inhale this bacterium or absorb it through our skin while working in the garden, it triggers
当我们在花园里工作时吸入这种细菌或通过皮肤吸收它时，它会触发
our brain to release serotonin.
我们的大脑释放血清素。
Oh, serotonin.
哦，血清素。
I know that one.
我知道那个。
That's the chemical in our brain that makes us feel happy, relaxed, and less stressed.
那是我们大脑中的化学物质，能让我们感到快乐、放松并减少压力。
It's like a natural antidepressant. Exactly.
它就像一种天然的抗抑郁剂。一点没错。
It naturally boosts your mood.
它能自然地提升你的情绪。
Furthermore, researchers talk about the hygiene hypothesis.
此外，研究人员提到了卫生假说。
The hygiene hypothesis?
卫生假说？
Can you break down that big term for us?
你能为我们讲解一下那个大术语吗？
Of course.
当然。
It is the idea that our modern, sterile environments do not expose us to enough germs.
它的观点是，我们现代无菌的环境没有让我们接触到足够的细菌。
Think of your immune system like an army.
将你的免疫系统想象成一支军队。
If the army never trains against harmless targets, it gets bored and starts attacking things it
如果这支军队从不对无害的目标进行训练，它就会感到无聊，并开始攻击它
shouldn't, like dust, pollen, or certain foods.
不应该攻击的东西，比如灰尘、花粉或某些食物。
This is what causes allergies and asthma. Wow.
这就是导致过敏和哮喘的原因。哇。
What a brilliant explanation.
多精彩的解释啊。
So soil bacteria are like sparring partners for our immune system.
因此土壤细菌就像是我们免疫系统的陪练伙伴。
They keep our body's defense forces fit, active, and smart. Exactly.
它们保持着我们身体防御部队的健康、活跃和智慧。一点没错。
Working in the soil teaches your immune system what is dangerous and what is harmless.
在土壤中工作可以教会你的免疫系统什么是危险的，什么是无害的。
So planting flowers, pulling weeds, or even just walking barefoot on the grass can make you
所以种花、拔草，甚至只是赤脚在草地上行走，都能让你
physically stronger and mentally happier.
身体上更强壮，精神上更快乐。
This is the perfect excuse for me to skip cleaning my apartment this weekend and spend my time
这对我来说是一个完美的借口，可以在本周末免去打扫公寓，而把时间花在
gardening instead.
做园艺上。
I will tell my roommates I am just self -medicating with natural serotonin.
我会告诉我的室友，我只是在用天然血清素进行自我治疗。
As long as you actually get outside and touch some real dirt, Oliver.
只要你真的走到户外，接触一些真正的泥土，奥利弗。
It is a wonderful reminder that our bodies are designed to be connected to nature, not locked inside
这是一个美好的提醒，即我们的身体旨在与自然相连，而不是被锁在
concrete offices all day.
整天锁在混凝土办公室里。
A beautiful thought to carry with us.
一个值得我们铭记在心里的美好想法。
