Former Afghan interpreter says Taliban tortured him for weeks but U.S. still won't give him a visa_我的网站

一 |     As Massoud walked down a Kabul street one cold Sunday morning, looking for a day job to feed his family, pickup trucks full of armed Taliban members stopped in front of him. He told CBS News the men aimed their AK-47s at him, he was handcuffed, blindfolded and taken to an office of the Taliban's General Directorate of Intelligence.For more than a month, Massoud's family had no idea where he was. They searched everywhere, including hospitals, until they arrived at the Taliban's intelligence department. "After six weeks of searching, they found me at the Taliban's 040 intelligence department," Massoud told CBS News in a phone interview. He said during the first 15 days of his imprisonment, he was "beaten, struck with electric shock sticks, electrocuted, waterboarded and hanged upside down."

             

His crime? Massoud worked for the U.S. military as an interpreter from 2011 to 2013, including a year spent working with U.S. Navy SEALs. (CBS News is not using the real name of Massoud or the other former interpreter interviewed for this story to protect them from possible retaliation.)       

"Don't want to see that horror again" 

Massoud said that during interrogations, Taliban intelligence officers told him that, "with my help, the Americans have killed our people, and that I was still spying for the Americans.""I told them, 'You have announced a general amnesty,'" Massoud told CBS News, but he was informed by the Taliban interrogators, "there is no amnesty for you people."                 Massoud was finally released by the Taliban after more than three months of imprisonment, after his brothers signed two separate guarantees promising the Taliban they would bring him back to the intelligence agency if ever asked to do so. CBS News has seen the letters and other documents his family filed with Taliban officials while he was imprisoned."They can find me anytime they wish and put me back in the prison," he told CBS News. "I just don't want to see that horror again." 

"Still in danger"

U.S. Army Sgt. Jordan David Johnson, who has since been honorably discharged, was Massoud's direct supervisor in Helmand province and has written to members of the U.S. Congress supporting his former Afghan colleague's application for a U.S. visa, but to no avail. "Every time I hear from Massoud I feel guilty, because he is still in danger," Johnson told CBS News. "We told them that, 'You help us, and we will help you.' But now we are not, and that is wrong."

             

In a September 2022 letter to lawmakers, Johnson said he trusted Massoud then, "and I am proud to call him a friend today," adding that he did not believe the Afghan "poses a national security threat to the United States of America."                      

"They will come after me and my family"

Omar, 32, told CBS News that he worked with the U.S. military from 2008 until 2012 and was deployed alongside U.S. troops in eastern Paktia province. From 2012 until Afghanistan fell back into the Taliban's hands in August 2021, he worked on various projects with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul. He was threatened many times for working with the U.S. and was injured in what he believes was an assassination attempt in 2014, after he filed for a U.S. visa. 

    

                                                     

    

Despite the threats, which he continued reporting to his supervisors at the embassy, Omar was informed that his U.S. Special Immigration Visa, or SIV, application had been rejected because documents he submitted previously had been deemed fraudulent. He believes it's because he failed a polygraph administered by U.S. officials eight years earlier, and that the process was unfair. "They intentionally make you a criminal," he told CBS News. "You are only allowed to answer their questions with yes and no, and they don't give you a chance to explain." Omar filed an appeal against the rejection of his application in mid-June and is waiting for a response. He urged the U.S. government to "seriously look into our cases and take us into safety," adding that if it doesn't happen, "they will come after me and my family one day."

"Absurd that it takes so long"

During the 20-year war that followed the 2001 U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan, thousands of Afghans served as interpreters and translators, working shoulder to shoulder with U.S. troops and diplomats, risking their lives serving on the battlefield and communicating with locals.                       These interpreters were essential to bridge the language barrier, but also to provide cultural context, gather intelligence, negotiate with tribal elders and build trust with local communities. Massoud and Omar both applied for SIVs under a program created by the U.S. Congress in 2006 to offer legal pathways to the United States for Iraqis and Afghans who helped during the U.S. military operations in those countries. But the bureaucracy of the SIV application process has left many applicants frustrated, with little faith in the program.Massoud said his application was rejected due to a lack of documentation from his supervisors, despite Johnson trying to help. He said he submitted the requested documents and has waited for more than 320 days with no update from the U.S. government. "Every time Massoud submits all his documents and we think, 'now we are waiting for his visa to be approved,' then Massoud would contact me again saying, 'I need this and this document, because they keep changing the requirements,'" Johnson said. 

    

                                                     

    

"The SIV process is flawed and ridiculous and absurd that it takes so long. These interpreters, their lives are in danger," the former U.S. soldier told CBS News. "We don't do enough for them, and it's very frustrating."

The backlog, and work to improve a "vital program"

"We have surged resources to this vital program, significantly increasing the number of staff dedicated to it. We have reviewed every stage of the multiple step application process to streamline it wherever possible, consistent with U.S. law, and continue to look for areas to improve," a State Department spokesperson told CBS News.The official said the steps had enabled the State Department to issue "nearly 34,000 SIVs to principal applicants and their eligible family members" from the beginning of the Biden administration until August 1, 2023.                      As of the end of March, State Department figures show about 9,800 principal SIV applicants had cleared a major hurdle in the process, securing Chief Of Mission (COM) approval. Those individuals are "awaiting further processing and their eventual visa interview before being issued an SIV," the spokesperson said, adding: "We are working to process these cases as quickly as possible."The State Department's figures show that another 69,000 principal applicants were undergoing the review process, and the spokesperson told CBS News that, historically, about half of the applications who reach that stage of the process do not end up qualifying for an SIV.According to the figures, 3,241 Afghan applicants were "deemed unqualified to receive COM approval or had the approval revoked during the second quarter" of 2023."The Department will continue to ensure Afghan SIV applications are processed as quickly as possible in accordance with the statutorily required program parameters and national security requirements," the spokesman told CBS News. A report issued this week by a State Department inspector general said, meanwhile, that according to the department's own estimation, as of April 2023, a total of "more than 840,000 principal and derivative SIV applicants remained in Afghanistan."CBS News' Tucker Reals and Paulina Smolinski contributed to this report.

。    “算力的尽头是电力。”                    前两年讨论 AI，话题基本都围着模型转：参数规模、多模态、上下文窗口。但真正的瓶颈，早就不在模型这一侧了。按数据中心运营成本口径测算，电力成本已经占到 60% 以上。一度电，究竟能换来多少 Token？这个问题正在变成 AI 产业最要紧的一笔账。                   7 月 19 日，2026 世界人工智能大会（WAIC）期间，“新一代人工智能基础设施·先进计算网络与算电协同论坛”在上海世博中心举办。本次论坛由鹏城国家实验室主办，长三角国家技术创新中心智能计算研究所、合肥中科类脑智能技术有限公司（简称“中科类脑”）联合承办，汇聚了两院院士、国家级算力平台、电网央企、国产大模型企业等政产学研各界代表。                   这场论坛最值得关注的动作，是推出了“Z 级算力 + P 级光网络 + GW 级电力”三位一体的新型人工智能基础设施架构。过去谈 AI 基础设施，算力、网络、电力往往是三条各说各话的线，这一次，它们被放进了同一个框架里。                   中国工程院院士、论坛主席高文                    中国工程院院士、论坛主席高文以《先进计算网络及 ZPG 计划愿景》为题，率先系统阐释了面向未来十年 AI 发展的战略构想。

二 | 他提出，我国应加快构建 Z 级（十万亿亿次）算力、P 级带宽光网络、GW 级电力保障的“ZPG”协同体系。这套构想的价值在于，它把一个此前相对模糊的方向，变成了有量化目标和清晰技术路线图的中长期路径。                   中国工程院院士郭剑波          随后，中国工程院院士郭剑波以《算—电—能源协同发展路径探究》为题，从能源侧给出了一组更具体的判断。他指出，预计到 2030 年，中国算力年用电量将达到 8000 亿千瓦时，约占全社会用电量的 6%，算力发展的瓶颈，正在从芯片性能向电力供应延伸。

三 |          他强调，算力中心既是新型电力系统的重要负荷侧资源，也是消纳新能源的有效载体，亟需将算力基础设施纳入能源互联网整体规划，通过源网荷储一体化调度，实现算力与电力的双向高效互动。一个从算力侧出发，一个从能源侧切入，两位院士把同一道题目摆到了产业面前：当电力成为 AI 的约束力量，这笔账该怎么算。                             缺的不是算力，          是把电变成 Token 的效率          黄仁勋曾把 AI 产业形容成一块五层蛋糕：能源、芯片和系统、基础设施、模型、应用。AI Infra 就是中间那层，它不造卡，也不训模型，价值在于提升效率、降低成本，让算力真正被用起来。

四 |                    中科类脑董事长、CEO 刘海峰          作为一家AI Infra 服务商，中科类脑董事长、CEO 刘海峰的主题报告《Token 经济下算电协同最优路径探索》，给出的是产业端的一种回答。他在演讲中分享了"度电智能"的产业发展理念。他给出的判断相当直接：当前制约 AI 发展的核心瓶颈是能效而非算力，人脑效能约为 AI 芯片的 500 至 1000 倍。这个倍数摆在那里，意味着能效这条路上还有大量空间没被挖掘。                   在他看来，当前大规模集中式的 Token 工厂，正在成为一个跨域的复杂系统，需要与之匹配的操作系统来支撑算电一体化的运营。

五 |                    这正是"度电智能"要解决的事：让每一度电产出的有效 Token 变得可计算、可优化。衡量一座 AI 基础设施的单位，也随之从“有多少张卡”，换成了“一度电能生产多少 Token”。         沿着这个理念，刘海峰倡导“电—算—Token”全链路优化：借助算电一体化平台“1+3”的架构，实现电力柔性可调、算力池化统筹、Token 高效产出，形成系统级的协同效应。                             算电一体化平台：          把电、算、Token 算成一本账                    论坛上，中科类脑正式推出算电一体化平台，定位是面向 Token 工业化生产的新一代 AI 基础设施底座。它整合了传统算力平台与能源管理系统的核心能力，首次实现电力供给、异构算力调度、大模型 Token 产出三位一体的协同管控，这也意味着，算电协同从概念探索进入了产品落地的关键阶段。                   平台采用“1+3”标准化架构：一套博弈智能决策大脑统筹全局，联动电力、算力、Token 三大功能子系统，分别对应电从哪来、卡怎么用、Token 怎么产。                   电力子系统集成微网管控、电力现货交易、全域 PUE 优化、虚拟电厂四大核心能力，依托算力集群柔性负荷参与电网削峰填谷，匹配风光新能源出力错峰调度算力任务。算力子系统完成多架构芯片资源的统一抽象，实现全国分散闲置算力的池化纳管。Token 子系统覆盖算子编译、KVCache 分层管理、推理优化全栈技术。

六 |                    实测数据显示，该全栈解决方案可使集群 Token 吞吐量较行业均值提升 2-3 倍，异构算力综合利用率突破 90%，智算中心综合电力成本降低约 20%。         这套方案已经过真实场景验证。芜湖集群算力调度及算电协同项目，以及更早的中国联通国家算力电力协同示范项目，都是它跑通过的地方。         从商业模式看，算电一体化平台打造出算电协同型“Token 工厂”。目前行业内多数Token工厂以算力侧模型加速为核心建设方向，发展路径更侧重算力维度的能力打磨。中科类脑则贯通“新能源基础设施—算力芯片—大模型—Token 生产”全产业链条，核心目标是实现高质量 Token 的普惠供给，推动 AI 在全球的广泛应用。         换句话说，它第一次从系统层面回答了“一度电能生产多少 Token”这个 AI 时代的核心命题，并为 Token 工厂构建起一套可复制、可推广的全域智能底座。                             Token 出海：把西部的电，          变成全球能买的算力                    平台把账算清了，下一个问题随之而来：算出来的 Token，怎么走出去？          论坛同期签约的“一带一路”Token出海战略联盟，给的正是这个答案。         这是国内首个以跨境 Token 服务、AI 算力出海为核心的多边产业协作组织。牵头的阵容不小：新疆数字经济联合会担任指导单位，中科类脑智算科技有限公司作为链主企业，联合北京生数科技、智象未来、上海国创驭算等国内头部大模型与 AI 基础设施企业共同组建，哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦等中亚国家信息通信领域代表同步参与签约。         按照战略合作框架，这次确立了三大长期合作目标：一是推进跨境数字基础设施互联，以皖疆人工智能科技产业园为核心载体，打通国内“东数西算”算力网络与中亚低延迟算力通道；二是实现 AI 技术场景的本土化融通，输出能源、政务、工业垂类大模型，针对俄语、哈萨克语等中亚语种完成轻量化微调，落地智慧口岸、油气数字化、现代农业、智慧城市等本土场景；三是共建跨境 Token 产业生态，协同制定统一的算力计量、Token 服务计价多边标准，设立双向产业孵化基地与跨境人工智能联合实验室。

七 |          通道、场景、规则，三条线并进，本次联盟要搭的不是一次性的生意，而是一套能长出生态的框架。                             至于枢纽为什么选新疆，答案几乎写在地图上：它既是“一带一路”通往中亚、欧洲的门户，又是国家能源安全的核心战略基地，风光资源储量全国靠前。最短的出海路和最便宜的绿电，恰好在这里重叠。

八 |          而这套模式真正的巧劲，在于换了一种“送电”的方式。         传统上，西部的富余绿电如果要跨境，得靠物理电网硬送，损耗和边界都是问题。Token 出海则让电先在本地被算力“吃掉”，变成一串可计价、可结算的数字商品，再顺着“绿色电力→数据中心→AI算力→API接口→全球用户付费”这条链卖给全球用户。         电还留在西部，但它的价值已经越过国境，走向世界。                             从共识到落地：          政产学研的同一张桌子                    圆桌论坛环节，来自国家实验室、运营商、高校与科技企业的嘉宾，围绕“新一代人工智能基础设施的技术突破与商业落地”坐到了一起。

九 |          一个绕不开的判断是：算电协同，已经不只是行业内部的技术共识。         2026 年，“算电协同”首次写入政府工作报告，“十五五”规划纲要进一步要求推动绿色电力与算力协同布局。它正从政策共识，加速迈向产业落地。         至于怎么落，嘉宾的看法趋于一致：一边发挥新型举国体制的优势，靠国家实验室这样的战略科技力量去啃关键核心技术；一边把应用场景交给市场主体去闯，让“技术突破—场景验证—产业迭代”形成一个能自己跑起来的循环。

十 |          这场论坛从头到尾，其实都绕着同一件事：AI 基础设施这笔账，到底该按什么单位来算。         从“度电智能”的理念，到算电一体化平台，再到 Token出海联盟，答案被一步步从想法做成了产品、连成了生态。

十一 |          中科类脑能率先把这条路跑通，并不意外。它是类脑智能技术及应用国家工程实验室唯一成果转化单位，也是国家级专精特新“小巨人”企业，拥有7年电力行业、8年算力产业技术积累。算电协同这件事，恰好需要一个同时站在电力和算力两端的人。         而本次的“新一代人工智能基础设施·先进计算网络与算电协同论坛”，更是将政产学研各方拉到同一张桌子上。当算网电的融合继续往深里走，中国 AI 基础设施的底座，也会跟着这些共识和实践，一层层夯实起来。
