"Today's headline" Next Stop: machine learning and O2O

January 20, today's headline at the Beijing National Convention Center held the "arithmetic annual data" conference. Today's headline CEO Zhang Yixi at the meeting focused on today's headlines the next five years of strategic development planning and machine learning development trends. Zhang Yixi: The next five years of the headline today's development plan is mainly summed up in three aspects: first, more subject news information, including text, pictures, short video information recommended to more users in the application scenario. Second, with the increase in user size and use of today's headline frequency increases, more and more user information is recorded in today's headlines, so that users can create more personalized services, such as the same like Huskies and users can generate more communication and interaction, today's headlines, this is an important way to try. Third, connecting services, the future of today's headlines can become "Today's life" to connect more O2O services, this is the headlines today very much look forward to. At the same time, Zhang Yixi points out that as the information generated in the physical world is being increasingly projections into the virtual world, more and more data are recorded, computers will become more and more users, it is not only the assistant role, it is more like the world of a shared brain, cyberspace "God", overlooking all users. Know what users like to eat, what they like to do, what companies they like, and which stars they will actively recommend to the user. Because the data don't lie. Does machine learning really come to this step, a good world for humans or a scary world? Zhang Yixi that: is a better and more efficient world. Because machines are for human service. Large-scale information is recorded and connected, creating an unprecedented scale of interaction, so that more human knowledge and wisdom will be precipitated. Zhang Yixi also said: "The general integrated computer brain, at least in the short term will not emerge." But in the vertical field, whether it is the news field today's headlines, or tools, such as the use of weather, navigation, and so on, their own intelligence is not much better than humans, but because of the long time, memory content and data enough, after years of accumulation, will be able to scale the information gap. For example, in the late night, today's headlines can recommend users for their own, and most interested in news content, so not only to reduce the burden on the human brain, but also to save users a lot of time, this scenario is not only in the Reading field, the same will be applied to other vertical areas. Public data show: Today's headlines since August 2012 on the line, after more than two years of development, the current cumulative user reach 220 million. More than 20 million users each day read articles of interest in today's headlines.
