Starting next year, any guaranteed bonus of top executives could be delayed 10 years if their banks are under investigati

12、on for wrongdoing. The main purpose of this “ clawback ” rule is to hold bankers accountable for harmful risk-taking and to restore public trust in financial institutions. Yet officials also hope for a much larger benefit: more long-term decision-making, not only by banks but by all corporations, to

13、 build a stronger economy for future generations. “ Short-termism, ” or the desire for quick profits, has worsened in publicly traded companies, says the Bank of Englands top economist, Andrew Haldane. He quotes a giant of classical economics, Alfred Marshall, in describing this financial impatience

Transient inv

15、estors, who demand high quarterly profits from companies, can hinder a firms efforts to invest in long-term research or to build up customer loyalty. This has been dubbed “ quarterly capitalism.”In addition, new digital technologies have allowed more rapid trading of equities, quicker use of informa

16、tion, and thus shorter attention spans in financial markets. “ There seems to be a predominance of short-term thinking at the expense of long-term investing,” said Commissioner Daniel Gallagher of the US Securities and Exchange Commission in a speech this week. In the US, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2

17、002 has pushed most public companies to defer performance bonuses for senior executives by about a year, slightly helping reduce “ short-termism. ” In its latest survey of CEO pay, The Wall Street Journal finds that “ a substantial part” of executive pay is now tied to performance.Much more could be

25、d like customers to be pleased. But another, related force a policy often buried deep in course catalogs called “ grade forgiveness is helping raise GPAs. Grade forgiveness allows students to retake a course in which they received a low grade, and the most recent grade or the highest grade is the on

26、ly one that counts in calculating a student l GPA. s overal The use of this little-known practice has accelerated in recent years, as colleges continue to do their utmost to keep students in school and paying tuition and improve their graduation rates. When this practice first started decades ago, i

27、t was usually limited to freshmen, to give them a second chance to take a class in their first year if they struggled in their transition to college-level courses. But now most colleges, save for many selective campuses, allow all undergraduates, and even graduate students, to get their low grades f

28、orgiven. College officials tend to emphasize that the goal of grade forgiveness is less about the grade itself and more about encouraging students to retake courses critical to their degree program and graduation without incurring a big penalty. “ Ultimately,” said Jack Miner, Ohio State Universitys

29、 registrar, “ we see stachieve more success because they retake a course and do better in subsequent courses or master the content that allows them to graduate on time.” oThat said, there is a way in which grade forgiveness satisfies collegesneeds as well. For public institutions, state funds are so

30、metimes tied partly to their success on metrics such as graduation rates and student retention so better grades can, by boosting figures like those, mean more money. And anything that raises GPAs will likely make students who, at the end of the day, are paying the bill feel they ve gotten a better v

31、alue for their tuition dollars, which is another big concern for colleges. Indeed, grade forgiveness is just another way that universities are responding to consumers expectations for higher education. Since students and parents expect a college degree to lead to a job, it is in the best interest of

32、 a school to turn out graduates who are as qualified as possible or at least appear to be. On this, students and colleges incentives seem to be aligned. 英语（一）试题-5-（共 14 页）细心整理归纳 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 第 5 页,共 16 页 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 精品学习资料 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -26.

Even before the invention of the electric light bulb, the author produced a remarkable work of speculative fiction that would foreshadow many ethica

38、l questions to be raised by technologies yet to come. Today the rapid growth of artificial intelligence AI raises fundamental questions: “ What is intelligence, identity, or consciousness. What makes humans humans.”What is being called artificial general intelligence, machines that would imitate the

39、 way humans think, continues to evade scientists. Yet humans remain fascinated by the idea of robots that would look, move, and respond like humans, similar to those recently depicted on popular sci-fi TV series such as and “ Humans.”“ Westworld ” Just how people think is still far too complex to be

40、 understood, let alone reproduced, says David Eagleman, a Stanford University neuroscientist. “ We are just in a situation where there are no good theories explaining what consciousness actually is and how you could ever build a machine to get there.”But that doesnt mean crucial ethical issues invol

41、ving AI arent at hand. The coming use of autonomous vehicles, for example, poses thorny ethical questions. Human drivers sometimes must make split-second decisions. Their reactions may be a complex combination of instant reflexes, input from past driving experiences, and what their eyes and ears tel

42、l them in that moment . AI “ vision” today is not nearly as sophisticated as that of humans. And to anticipate every imaginable driving situation is a difficult programming problem. Whenever decisions are based on masses of data, “ you quickly get into a lot of ethical questions,” notes Tan Kiat How

Along with Singapore, other governments and mega-corporations are beginning to establish their own guidelines. Britain is setting up a data ethics center. India released its AI e

44、thics strategy this spring. On June 7 Google pledged not to “ design or deploy AI ” that would cause “ overall harm,” or to develop AI-directed weapons or use AI for surveillance that would violate international norms. It also pledged not to deploy AI whose use would violate international laws or hu

45、man rights. While the statement is vague, it represents one starting point. So does the idea that decisions made by AI systems should be explainable, transparent, and fair.
