Alpha Dog defeated the world-class Go master, and Saudi Arabia issued a citizenship certificate to a robot. It seems that if you are walking on the street now, if you don’t say a few words about artificial intelligence, it’s the same as never going to school, so today I will also talk about artificial intelligence.
My master's subject is natural language processing, which is a branch of artificial intelligence. What we have to do is to input nearly 20 years of data, text, and literary works into the computer, and let it calculate and learn how humans use metaphors This kind of rhetoric.
To give another example, Alpha Dog defeated the world-class Go master because it has two brains, one responsible for the overall situation and one responsible for local analysis. When the calculations of the two brains are weighted equally, the decision it makes is the decision. The moment when it finally landed. Therefore, the core of artificial intelligence thinking lies in computing.
Seeing such sophisticated calculations by machines, do you have a sense of deja vu? Do you think that people sometimes look like machines? For example, I am extremely anxious, I like to process large amounts of information quickly, and I especially hate other people's insults. But unfortunately, my mother is very insulting and likes to make voices. I took out the phone, and the ten and twenty screens were all her voices. If you don’t click on it, you will never know what she is talking about. Once, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I said: "Mom, can you stop speaking, you are sending text, you are so slow, it will delay my time."
In this way, I changed from a person to a machine that processes information quickly, because I took my mother’s voice as information, input it into the brain, and analyzed the results. I hope she inputs text instead of voice, because I recognize it better. . But what I did not analyze was that my mother made the voice because her eyes were not as good as before. She was sitting on the sofa at night, facing this bright small screen, and she would be very uncomfortable when she typed; I did not What I analyzed was that my mother made the voice because she didn’t want to convey any amount of instruction information to you. She just wanted to talk to you because you hadn’t been home for a long time; what I didn’t analyze was that every time I was like a high precision When the sharp machines process information quickly, they are actually widening the distance between her and her; what I did not analyze is that since the day of birth, each of us has started a goodbye with our mother: cutting the umbilical cord. , Complete the first farewell; cut off breast milk, complete the second farewell. Since then, every time you progress in your studies and broaden your horizons, you are widening the distance of this farewell. You stand far away and turn your head and wave your hand to her and say: "Mom, I am here, I have greater The stage is more beautiful and the scenery is more friends are more busy at work, but you are too slow, you are behind, you affect the efficiency of the whole team. "
Remember, when we were young, we didn't know how to walk. What is a common saying? You say: "Mom and Dad, wait for me." At that time, Mom and Dad sacrificed their efficiency in processing information and stood waiting for you. Later, you grew up day by day and ran fast day by day. Now you think about improving efficiency. You said: "We are the age of information, we pay attention to efficiency, we don't want to be slow."
I believe that there must be no such indifferent artificial intelligence in the world. If there is, I would rather live in the primitive age. Everyone has no concept of information and efficiency. , But know how to feel emotions attentively, otherwise, what is the difference between humans and machines?
One of my senior Tsinghua brothers, in the fall of his junior year, he signed up to join the army to become a soldier. And his choice is not just to become a soldier, but to be a sentry at the highest outpost in China. What is the highest? The definition given by biologists is that above 4500 meters above sea level is the restricted area of life. And the post he was in was 5318 meters above sea level, and there was no grass growing. Over 40 years since this post was established, more than a dozen officers and soldiers have been sleeping on this snow-covered land. Family members and friends said that you have done so many multiple-choice questions as a student, why must you give such answers in your life choices? Graduates from prestigious schools, working in prestigious companies, there are so many choices, why should you become a student? sentinel? He only said one sentence, no one asked him why, no one stopped him—he said, "Do you know where the only land boundary in the world where China has not been resolved? I just want to stand by me At the door of my house, guarding my national flag, watching it stand firmly there." When
artificial intelligence makes choices, it is based on calculation. They rely on super computing power and memory to imitate people, but they are just people. The choice is difficult to be imitated and calculated.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, our country had such a group of people. Some of them graduated from Tsinghua, some were famous children, and some were returned overseas Chinese. In today’s words, they have good looks. They are just such a group of handsome guys. The same decision: They died collectively in a blue sky full of gunpowder, leaving their average age of only 23 in a fighter plane. One of them is Liu Cuigang. Liu Cuigang said to her beloved girl: "Our lives cannot be calculated and planned. I love you, but I dare not love you because I must be ready to die with the enemy at any time." In the war years, only if we dare to cut off our own future, can we leave a future for our beloved. This reminds me of the poem: "Life is precious, love is more expensive. If it is for freedom, both can be thrown away."
Liu Cuigang knew that the Japanese army had a lot of planes, and new machines were emerging in an endless stream; they knew that they were weak and outnumbered; they knew that this was a road of no return, there was no return, but they still chose to commit suicide in a critical moment. The flight mode-direct collision, all die. Because they have an oath called "to serve the country to the death without surviving." You think they don’t know how to calculate and don’t know how to use artificial intelligence. He has calculated it. This is his formula. He thinks that one person’s life can be used to exchange more people’s lives for the future of the country and the nation. Hope, he thinks this algorithm is more worthwhile.
I am an engineering student. All thinking of artificial intelligence is based on calculations, but we know that the variance of artificial intelligence will be smaller than human calculations because it is more accurate. But you have to know that the concept of variance is judged with assignment. There are too many things in this world that cannot be quantified, let alone assignment?
Human choices are sometimes based on calculations, but more often from their hearts, out of a love for the country, belief in the nation, and out of instinct. Human choices are very complicated. Sometimes we will make mistakes, miscalculations, break up in love, and fail, and do a lot of stupid things, but we also choose to sacrifice ourselves, which will make more people happy. This is our human choice. Like Deng Jiaxian, who abandoned the favorable treatment of foreign scientific research, like Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin who founded China’s first architecture department, like what I just said, the Chinese Air Force heroes who left their 23-year-old lives in the blue sky, they all know how to calculate. , But it is precisely their choice that cannot be calculated that has achieved the development of today's country and nation, promoted the process of history, and gained the freedom and happiness of everyone present.
Humans must never become machines, because those who love our country, our belief in the nation, and stick to our original intentions are what makes us humans, not machines.
