The development of artificial intelligence needs rational and pragmatic

Artificial intelligence has experienced 62 years of development, and has made significant progress. The dedicated artificial intelligence has made breakthroughs and has been widely used. A few days ago, Tan Tieniu, a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a researcher at the Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, pointed out that artificial intelligence would have a revolutionary impact on productivity and industrial structure and promote human access to an inclusive smart society.

However, the development of anything cannot always be at a high level, and there will be a low valley. This is an objective law. Although the current popular technology and field of artificial intelligence such as intelligent robots, cognitive expert consultants, machine learning, and autopilot are in the expected expansion period, in Tan Tieiu's view, the overall development of general artificial intelligence and artificial intelligence is still in the preliminary stage, artificial There is still a lot of "can't" intelligence.

Tan Tieniu reminds that artificial intelligence is lacking in enthusiasm, but "rational and pragmatic." "We must rationally analyze our actual needs, rationally set development goals, rationally choose development paths, and pragmatically promote the implementation of various plans and plans."

Tan Tieniu also shared some thoughts on the follow-up development of artificial intelligence.

He believes that it is true that the spring of artificial intelligence has just begun, but its development should not only be the current hot spot, such as the current highly sought after deep learning, not necessarily the only or even the path of artificial intelligence development. Therefore, it is an important task to strengthen the solid foundation of original research.

Taking this as a guideline, China should build an independent and controllable innovation ecosystem. In this regard, Tan Tieniu proposed the construction of artificial intelligence "new nuclear high base": "new" refers to a new open innovation ecosystem, such as military-civilian integration, integration of production, education and research; "nuclear" refers to core key technologies and devices, such as advanced machine learning technology, Robust pattern recognition technology, low-power intelligent computing chip, etc.; "high" refers to high-end integrated application systems and platforms, such as machine learning software and hardware platforms, large data platforms, etc.; "base" refers to significant original meaning and technology-driven Basic theory and methods, such as brain-computer interface, brain-like intelligence, etc.

In order to really harvest the dividends brought by artificial intelligence, we must first ensure that it is safe, controllable and reliable. "China's ethical issues in the field of artificial intelligence and risk management are relatively lagging behind." Tan Tieniu stressed, "This lag situation is not compatible with the development stage of artificial intelligence technology in China at the present stage, and may become one of the development of artificial intelligence technology in China. Big elbow."

The reporter was informed that the "Artificial Intelligence Ethics Research" project of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which was led by Tan Tieniu as the project leader, has been officially launched, and preliminary results have been formed in the early stage.

Tan Tieniu also suggested promoting shared shared global governance. "China should play the role of a big country, including the promotion of international commonality issues in artificial intelligence technical standards and safety standards."

In addition, privacy issues raised by artificial intelligence, security issues, and security issues in the system itself have not received sufficient attention.

Tan Tie Niu cited a case of cyber security: many families now have webcams, some to observe the situation of the elderly or children, and some to check whether burglary has occurred. But once the camera is hacked, the home becomes a "transparent space" and may be broadcast live 24 hours a day.

"There are technical problems, and there are also problems in the regulation of the regulations." Tan Tieniu pointed out that the safety of artificial intelligence systems is not serious, but it should be highly valued and prepared. "Need the relevant parties to sit together and form Work together to develop a comprehensive research for the future."

"Since we are beginning to enter a new era of intelligent society, artificial intelligence has brought various challenges and potential hidden dangers, then we really need to plan ahead and ensure the positive effects of artificial intelligence." Tan Tieniu once again stressed.
