Ai dating is a gimmick?

The two days of small ice release of single men and women dating skills, triggering a large number of single users of concern, which also makes us have to think about a problem, artificial intelligence is useful? Many people think that artificial intelligence dating stunt is higher than ideal, from QQ, MSN early appearance of those small robots began, To Siri after the emergence of the application of intelligent speech recognition, and then to everyone on the Internet once very well-known procedures "small yellow chicken", artificial intelligence has repeatedly appeared in the focus, but the topic and new ideas, have encountered the problem of decline in activity.

Microsoft Small ice since May 29 this year on the line, has been "stay Meng play the Fool" image in front of everyone, randomly set off artificial intelligence dating This topic of hot discussion. When the ice was born 4 months ago, news from Microsoft (Asia) Internet Engineering Institute, ICE new unlock "single men and women" skills, will be based on micro-blog The latest group chat, according to users of the public microblogging, photos, messages, constellations, hobbies and other information, using large data technology scientific analysis, matching, Gather like-minded microblogging users into a chat group and gradually guide people to familiarity.

Many friends think that, although small ice hot, but not escape the past "small yellow chicken" and other artificial intelligence dating program, in the interest of falling, small ice fun no longer, and the practicality is not, it is inevitable that the end of the cold. In addition, users do not have micro-blog chat habits, small ice "single men and women" skills will become a chicken. Another part of the friends think that Microsoft "the idea is not wine", "single men and women" skills launched to improve Microsoft's large data mining and artificial intelligence search capabilities for the future to achieve "work and life scene of the first service interface" under the foreshadowing, the expansion of artificial intelligence business layout.

Ai dating is a gimmick?

"Artificial intelligence is a gimmick", a view that has been in the evaluation of small ice chat robots. In the past, the small yellow chicken always use the word does not reach the sentence chat style to make people laugh, and to the small ice here, "Stay Meng play dumb" style does not seem to change too much, Microsoft so-called "16-Year-old Girl IQ" also make people laugh and cry. In the end, Microsoft also explained informally that the current small ice quotient is equivalent to a seven or eight-year-old child.

Even so, Microsoft is still unlocking the new features of small ice. This time, small ice unlock "single men and women" skills, acting as "matchmaker", Let Strange city men and women participate in it, carry out making friends, marriage.

Is it really worth it if Microsoft attaches so much importance to small ice? Microsoft for ice unlock "single men and women" really just for men and women to make friends, marriage?

In fact, Microsoft's "artificial intelligence" goal is to continuously improve the large data analysis capabilities. Today, after a lot of data generation, there are low-cost storage to store it, with high-speed CPU to deal with it, so the artificial intelligence after two branches of theory and practice. And in the past 4 months of the birth of the ice, 600 million dialogues have been conducted, and today, 1122 sentences per capita. Small ice in chat constantly by reading a lot of data, improve the accuracy of artificial intelligence itself, and make close to human processing or judgment, improve accuracy. At the same time, the use of artificial intelligence services as high value-added services to attract more users of the main factors, and the increasing number of users will produce more data, so that artificial intelligence further optimization.

Artificial intelligence for the purpose of making friends for Microsoft, in fact, not just not to make friends, but through constant tuning, optimize the artificial intelligence of small ice, enhance its "IQ."

Towards the human emotion

At present, it is still in the early market of artificial intelligence, according to the time order of release, Apple's Siri, Google's Google Now, Microsoft's Cortana and small ice are in pillars situation. With the popularity of smartphones, the appearance of the design is already outdated, hardware performance is also fast outdated, now, to fight artificial Intelligence voice assistant function, but gradually become a new fashion.

But for now, while there has been a significant increase in speech recognition and a better understanding of map positioning and data integration, AI assistants, whether behind its powerful Apple or Google or Microsoft, seem a little far from Ellon Masc's worried "human Terminator". Artificial intelligence can still do only by the user molested or query the weather.

However, the small ice launched "single Men and women", involved in the emotional communication between people, for the past artificial intelligence is a big breakthrough. Since the past artificial intelligence only in the field of data search, the "single men and women" in the human emotional grasp of a step forward.

Through the user's dialogue, small ice can understand the user is now in what kind of emotional state, and according to the user's situation of corpus feedback and guidance. This function not only increased the understanding of the users of the small ice, improved the accuracy of large data matching, while through personalized corpus guidance, but also to ensure the process of making friends from unfamiliar to familiar with the excessive, and once again enhance the success rate of friends. Small ice behind the active emotional detection system technology has become a guarantee of success in making friends.

In fact, the big data analysis of Microsoft's Bing search has been known to be accurate for years. Bing's big figures have been successful in predicting the knockout stages of the 2014 World Cup and major events such as the Scottish independence referendum and the U.S. presidential election. Large data under constant and accurate assurance, artificial intelligence, and the superposition of these technologies will create "based on life services Intelligent Mobile search", bringing unlimited business prospects imagine space.

The lifting of information quantity optimization

Some friends believe that Weibo users lack of micro-blog chat habits, "single men and women" This function will become a chicken. But the author thinks, Micro Bo group chat is the next step is the business direction of micro Bo, small ice into micro Bo group chat, launched the "single men and Women" is in the stimulating group chat function of the rapid popularization.

Twitter is also developing a group chat function, not just Weibo. On September 4, Twitter's finance officer, Anthony Nor, has revealed that Twitter will give priority to improving search services and will also develop group chat capabilities. Noto said: "If I use Twitter to publish a game information, students may reply to this message." However, I do not want to discuss the game with my classmates in front of the boss and other users. Then I will choose the private communication way, I may choose the letters function. Currently, the letters feature only supports one-to-one sessions and does not support One-to-many sessions. So this is an innovative sample around sharing or expression. ”

Indeed, in the June World Cup, Weibo set off a whirlwind of data, the opening to the final day July 14 12 o'clock, the micro-BO World Cup total discussion reached 1.96 billion, the total number of related micro-blog reading reached 29.75 billion, the highest peak when netizens released more than 370,000 micro-blog. In contrast to such proud figures, the discussion of the scores was discussed in the micro-letter. This actually shows that the microblogging media attributes are too strong, social attributes are too weak predicament.

At present, micro-blog active users are close to 70 million, on average, the daily number of micro-blog published more than 100 million. But users concerned about the enterprise account in the promotion of the continuous release of micro-blog, and in some hot events, a number of media releases similar content, the formation of brush screen caused by visual fatigue. As a result, users do not see enough information on Weibo, and the freshness is weakening. At the same time, the user posted content is submerged in the flow of information, can not be seen by its fans, cannot form interaction, also reduces the use of micro-blogging fun.

In the face of this situation, micro-blog in the display of its media attributes, the introduction of Group chat function, which is essentially the further development of social attributes and strengthen. This is also the July 16 of this year, Weibo officially launched the Information flow optimization plan since an important step.

According to data statistics, micro-BO Information flow optimization plan, after 3 months of trial operation, the micro-boping platform low quality, interactive content of the exposure rate was reduced by 35%, in the online optimization strategy, users in the information flow to read micro-Bo increased by 14%, the average user's micro-blog exposure increased by 33%. It can be predicted that small ice to join the microblogging group chat, the average user's micro-blog exposure will be further improved, micro-bo information flow will be further optimized.

Summary：

Mobile search, large data and the intersection of artificial intelligence is the focus of the future technology, technology crossover and convergence is one of the important trends in the future of the Internet.

In collaboration with Microblogs, Microsoft is looking at the huge information and rich data that Twitter has as a super app. In artificial intelligence, Microsoft's small ice combined with cloud computing, large data, machine learning, deep neural network and many other technologies, the continuous introduction of "single men and women" and other new features to provide users with a more interesting experience, while the new algorithm is strengthening the artificial intelligence. Microsoft's overall strategy is to move first, cloud first, and large data is a link between moving and the cloud. When these data are combined, they can be mined and processed, and placed on the back end, the advantage of Microsoft Cloud Platform will be formed to create the future of Microsoft artificial Intelligence business map.

Micro-Bo introduced small ice, on the one hand, can optimize the flow of information, on the other hand, micro-letter, the stranger and other social opponents to form a challenge, making Weibo a social platform more challenging. It may be a new beginning for Twitter to join the group chat function and bring in small ice when it is 5 years old.
