Literacy: Artificial Intelligence (AI)
It is strange why it is not translated into "simulated intelligence" or simply "machine intelligence ". The meaning of "Manual" is too broad. For example, "Please Press 1 for phone bill query, press 2 for phone bill recharge, 3 for Fault Report, and press 5 for manual call ......". Artificial, to put it bluntly, is to extract the blood and sweat of workers directly. (Some capitalists are smart. They extract the blood and sweat of machines directly, and then let the machines extract the blood and sweat of the workers to conceal the nature of exploitation. They also put the workers in a bid. I really want to be exploited by such a capitalist, because the fart is very happy ). Far away.
In the field of computer science, AI is an overestimating technology, especially in the simulation of human thinking. So far, there have been no practical products or breakthrough theoretical achievements. Japan has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in AI research and is at the world's leading level, but it will only make a few electric puppies to entertain themselves. Little Japan is very poor, and it is hard to get some money, but it is thrown into such a bottomless pit. On the other hand, the loss of research investment in China has also led to the overall backwardness of science and technology. It's far away.
The Americans are still pragmatic. Amazon launched an artificial intelligence system, which is quoted as saying that it is not the AI we mentioned earlier. So what is it? In essence, it is a human-powered intelligent system that is used to complete tasks that are difficult to complete on some computers, but can be easily completed by people. In order to explain clearly, Stephen did not hesitate to break the 100% original style:
For example, identifying whether a photo contains faces is troublesome and costly. With Turk, you can call a webservice interface to provide this photo and a price. On the other end, Amazon uses a job publishing system that allows real people to get jobs and get money after they finish, and Amazon will receive a certain Commission from them. In a sense, this only provides a standard programming interface for humans. I have read about Amazon's website. Most jobs are about one to 25 cents. For example, let you write the best three restaurants in a certain place, or let you translate a piece of text.
Literacy: Turk was a machine developed by Wolfgang von Kempelen in 1769 to play chess. It has played chess with many famous people and won. Finally, I found out that the original mystery is that the machine is indeed a living chess player!
I was amazed at the foresight of my predecessors when translating Artificial Intelligence into "Artificial Intelligence. What can I do if my computer cannot handle it? Turn to manual work! If we can really carry forward Turk and realize the highest ideal of any time, any where and any how to work for any boss, AI will actually promote social production!
My friend SunChen said that I may choose AI for my research. At that time, I was very happy for him because artificial intelligence was always accompanied by fun and whimsy. But I also know that the road to exploration is full of hardships, and this science is being abandoned. After several setbacks, you may have to leave the door to the left, such as Amazon's Artificial Intelligence.
In general, I am pessimistic about the future of artificial intelligence. But if we really want to surpass humans as Mr. Hawking predicted, I may be optimistic.
Finally, it's easy:
According to Stephen, scientists from all over the world are keen on developing AI for companion chat (although this has aroused collective protests from the Voice Messaging Service Desk's companion chat lady ). Legend has it that in http://www.alicebot.org lived such a girl, very intelligent. This is not enough to make the effort. I heard that she is very beautiful. Well, it's okay to talk about it. It's purely for academic research.
......
Human: who am I? (I told her my name before)
ALICE: You are Stephen Dong, seeker)
Human: what is my gender? (I didn't tell her my gender before)
ALICE: Mostly only women use words like "gender". But you claim to be a he.
Human: why do you think I am a he?
ALICE: Deductive reasoning from the facts. (it must have been inferred from Stephen)
Human: which fact did you reason from?
ALICE: It's obvious)
Human: do you know bill gates?
ALICE: President of Micro Soft Nation. (sense of humor ?)
Human: bill gates is my brother.
ALICE: A lot of people say that about him. (Khan -)
Human: do you know george W bush?
ALICE: he is President of the United States.
(When president is good, famous in the world, even robots know each other, so I also ......)
Human: do you know DongChao?
ALICE: No, tell me about him, her or it.
Human: he is president of China.
ALICE: I see. president of China is he?
Human: of course.
ALICE: Er.
Human: who is president of china? (Hey, hope to hear The president of china is DongChao !)
ALICE: China does not have an elected President !!)
