English term

entail

English to Chinese Tech/Engineering IT (Information Technology) AI
The broader definition of AI creates confusion, especially for those that may not be closely following the technology. Recent highly visible advancements driven by application of machine learning are sometimes misinterpreted and extrapolated to imply that we are at the threshold of imminent advance towards AGI,{ and all that it would entail for the societal order}.
暗指我们现处于强人工智能方面即将获得进展的起始点,{而这一切正是社会秩序所需要的}。
请问最后那句话是不是存在typo?

imply [that] we are at the threshold of imminent advance towards AGI, and all [that] it would entail for the societal order.
是不是这样理解?
但是这样的话,it would entail for the societal order又有点费解。
说实话,看不明白后一个that前面的all。

必需的/所需的

试译后半句,仅供参考:
……有时被误解和外推,听起来好像我们已经一切就绪,即将在 AGI 及其所需的一切社会秩序调适方面,取得进展。
“all”加强语气,在理解时,可以先忽略它。“entail”了什么,原文没有点明,但是意思不难确定, 指的是社会秩序需要随它而调适/调整/变革。

不妨将“all that”看作“what”。“and all that…” 中的“that”跟“imply that”中的“that”关系不一样。

所需要的

all that it would entail for the societal order
= all which it would entail for the societal order
还原后就是:
it would entail all for the sociental order
all其实是宾语that只不过是关系代词而已。
中文可译为:
社会秩序所需要的一切

imply that “we are at the threshold of imminent advance 【towards AGI, and towards EVERYTHING Which it(AGI)would entail for the societal order”.

all that which it (AGI)would entail.

that 是该定语从句的宾语,引导该定语从句的which被省略了。

another thought:

[that it would entail for the societal order] 是ALL 的定语从句,all与AGI并列。

暗指我们现正站在即将进入强人工智能时代、即将面临它对社会秩序所带来的需要关注的方方面面的大门口。

“需要关注的方方面面的”可以改为“影响”。

一点补充:

AGI和all是并列的,亦即“我们已经处于即将跨入AGI + all 的大门口(临界地带)”

我们已经处于即将跨入AGI 并面临它会给社会秩序带来的、需要应对的所有的影响的大门口(临界地带)

all that it would entail for the societal order = all which AGI would entail for the societal order

agree David Lin : Certainly it isn't a typo coz the author wants to say the impact of AI in changing social order. This is a simpler and accurate translation.
