Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 276 Advances in Artificial Intelligence

Through the Internet, after participating in this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine award ceremony on the Internet, many reporters flocked to Luzhou to interview Zhou Ming the next day.

These reporters include national TV stations, provincial TV stations, and reporters from various other media. There are so many people that it can be said that Zhou Ming's home, Huaguo University of Science and Technology, and future smart technology companies are all surrounded. It was a leak.

Where Zhou Ming is, so are the reporters.

This is not because these reporters follow Zhou Ming like a follower, but because the reporters who want to interview Zhou Ming at Zhou Ming's house, Huaguo University of Science and Technology, and Future Smart Technology Company are not the same group.

Those reporters rushed back to write the manuscript after the interview, and sent the manuscript out earlier, so there was no time to run around, it was simply because there were so many people.

After tossing like this for a few days, Zhou Ming was finally clean.

After returning to a peaceful life again, perhaps because he had been separated from the research on artificial intelligence for a few days, when he put his energy into the research and improvement of artificial intelligence again, Zhou Ming found himself suddenly The inspiration exploded, and the progress can be said to have advanced a lot.

In the last ten days of the last month of [-], amidst the constant fountain of inspiration, the advancement of artificial intelligence algorithm research was equivalent to several months before Zhou Ming.

If this can continue, Zhou Ming thinks that in a year or two, he may be able to develop an artificial intelligence that can be used in today's computers with human emotions and autonomous consciousness.

But inspiration does not exist all the time, it is a very mysterious thing.

Although the trajectory of electrons is also unpredictable, at least it has an electron cloud that can be used to describe the probability of its appearance somewhere in the space outside the nucleus.

But no one has ever heard of such a thing as being able to predict inspiration, so before the end of [-], after the burst of inspiration that spewed out like a fountain ended, all research returned to the previous speed.

Future Smart Technology Co., Ltd. has developed for several years from its establishment to the present. Although the research focus of Future Smart Technology Company has always been on the research on the independent chip industry chain before the research of independent chips.

But this does not mean that in other fields, future smart technology companies will have little progress.

Zhou Ming's first paper on computers was published in the "Journal of Intelligent Systems" on "A Discussion on an Algorithm for Training Neural Networks and Performing Other Tasks".

In this article, the algorithm used to train neural networks and perform other tasks was only discussed, although more of it was Zhou Mingjiang’s mind about future developments in the field of artificial intelligence. Written indirectly.

But in the opinion of many people at the time, it would take at least ten years to realize such an algorithm.

Facts have proved that their thinking is still too conservative.

Because the article that Zhou Ming just published on the "Journal of Intelligent Systems" not only described this algorithm for training neural networks and performing other tasks, but also described some of his ideas for the future computer industry, especially the artificial intelligence industry. The development of conjectures has made people try to do research according to the conjectures described in Zhou Ming's article published in the "Journal of Intelligent Systems".

When people found out one after another that they were doing research according to Zhou Ming's conjectures, the research went very smoothly.

This article published in the "Journal of Intelligent Systems", which is not very influential, although it is the journal of the Huaguo Artificial Intelligence Association, quickly became a piece of cake, a piece of gold.

Among the people who began to conduct research according to the speculation in Zhou Ming's paper a few years ago, many of them have already become famous.

Some of them were already well-known, while some were just unknown researchers in [-].

Before this [Mechanical Heart] mission started, Huaguo's domestic artificial intelligence technology was already at the top of the world due to the existence of future intelligent technology companies.

Although there was still a long way to go before the research of artificial intelligence capable of human thinking and human emotion, the artificial intelligence technology of the future intelligent technology company was already very mature and humanized.

However, since the beginning, the future smart technology company's cooperation in this area was carried out with the official, so after these technologies achieved results, they did not immediately face the general market, but provided them exclusively to the official department.

After the future smart technology companies have their own complete set of chip industry chain technology, the official also customizes electronic products for office use from them.

In other words, when researching chip technology, there are two sources of funding for future smart technology companies other than those provided by future biotechnology companies.

One is a small number of products that are directly oriented to the general public, and the other is a customized product that is specially oriented to official departments and some unofficial companies.

And after owning their own chip technology, the chip technology that used to be the most funded by future smart technology companies has also become their largest source of funds. This phenomenon will not change until the electronic products of future smart technology companies face the broad market. .

It has been a while since Zhou Ming finished his research on the "evolution" of genetic medicines and began to focus on the research of artificial intelligence.

During this period of time, the artificial intelligence technology of future smart technology companies has progressed very rapidly.

Moreover, while promoting the development of artificial intelligence software, Zhou Ming did not forget to increase investment in artificial intelligence hardware and computers. Although he himself is a stranger to computer manufacturing technology, at most he only knows a little bit, but this is not the case. It does not prevent Zhou Ming from increasing his investment in this area.

Hardware and software are two-pronged. Under such vigorous development, the artificial intelligence technology produced by Future Smart Technology Company has continuously broken through, and can pass the Turing test under certain conditions.

The Turing test was proposed by Alan Mathison Turing, a British mathematician and logician known as the father of computer science and artificial intelligence. In the case of being separated from the subject, the subject is asked random questions through some devices.

The tester mentioned here refers to a person, and the tested person is a machine.

If, after many tests, the machine got the average participant to make more than 30 percent false positives, the machine passed the test and was deemed to have human-level intelligence.

This test comes from a paper titled "Computing Machines and Intelligence" written by Turing in 30. [-]% of this paper is Turing's evaluation of the thinking ability of machines in [-]. A prediction, but the technology of artificial intelligence in [-] will be far behind this prediction.

The reason why it is said under certain conditions is that if the current artificial intelligence does not set some conditions in advance, it will still answer some questions and answers as a robot.

If you do not make any conditions, then when you repeatedly ask it the question "Can you play chess?", it will always answer your question without getting bored.
But when you set a certain condition, for example, if you set this artificial intelligence to be a human with a bad temper, then when you repeatedly ask it the question "Can you play chess?" Will be very impatient.

When you ask it a simple question like "What is 1+1?", they will answer it quickly.

And when you ask how much 36147*52684 is equal to, they will say they don't know.

Even when you scold it "I fuck you" or "fuck squid", it will scold you back even more angrily.

Under such circumstances, if the questioner is someone who doesn't know much about this artificial intelligence, and Zhou Ming and the others set it up so that he can pass the Turing test, the person who asked the question is almost It is impossible to discover that this is an artificial intelligence and not a real ordinary human.

When the questioners finally learn that it is not a real human being who has been answering their questions, but an artificial intelligence, they will definitely find this an incredible thing and think that its thinking mode is the same as that of a human being.

But for Zhou Ming, who developed it, and everyone involved in the research and development, they didn’t think so at all.

Because they know the details of this artificial intelligence very well, the reason why the current artificial intelligence can pass the Turing test under such circumstances is because of its powerful learning and imitation capabilities.

That is to say, the reason why they answered this way was not determined by factors such as their own personalities, but was controlled by humans.

It is "fed" by thousands of people with different personalities, skin colors, races, and ages based on advanced algorithms.

Today, the world has a population of 80-[-] people, although the time since the official launch of future smart technology companies is not too long, and the number of people using their electronic products is not the largest in the world, but what happened to all of them at home and abroad There are now tens of millions of users combined.

And this number is still rising every day, Zhou Ming estimates that the number of users should exceed [-] million next year.

More importantly, not only Future Smart Technology's own products are equipped with such advanced artificial intelligence, Future Smart Technology has also provided similar assistance to other companies' electronic products.

So up to now, the number of people using artificial intelligence from future smart technology companies around the world must have exceeded [-] million.

Even if one person asks one question, that's [-] million questions.

And because it wants more users to interact with it, the future smart technology company also specially added many small and interesting gameplays, and its "personal settings" can be set by users.

It can be your warm boyfriend, or your gentle girlfriend, or you can regard it as an innocent and cute child, or a knowledgeable teacher...

Under such circumstances, it is simply impossible for many people to ask only one question a day.

And under the "training" of such a huge population base, the growth of this artificial intelligence will naturally be very rapid.

For users, its only inconvenience is that as an artificial intelligence software, the update frequency is really too fast.

Basically, it needs to be updated once a month or so.

But fortunately, every update of it does not repair some small patches like other software, or add some dispensable small functions, etc. Every time it updates, there will be very big changes. Simpler is more humane.

Communicating with users will appear more natural than before.

Therefore, although the update frequency is a bit higher, most users still have no objection to this, and some users will even look forward to the next update later.

Under such circumstances, when this artificial intelligence answers people's various tests on it, it has a super question bank in its mind.

It knows almost all the reactions that human beings should have, and they can show different reactions according to different situations. This naturally makes those who don't understand it feel very magical, thinking that this artificial intelligence has its own thinking and can think for itself up.

As for whether this artificial intelligence will appear or not, it already has self-awareness, but in order not to be discovered, Zhou Ming has never thought about it.

After all, it is impossible for artificial intelligence to automatically generate autonomous consciousness, and human beings still don't know the principle, even for Zhou Ming, who has the relevant knowledge in the next few decades.

This is like when you see a stone on the road and you ask whether it is possible for the stone to speak to you suddenly.

Unless the artificial intelligence simulation robot dreaming and "awakening" that appeared in the simulated world when using the life simulator last time occurs again, it is impossible to happen at all.

This kind of situation is like a fairy enlightened the stone, turning it into a stone spirit, which is impossible to happen normally.

But Zhou Ming didn't realize that what had happened in the simulated world before would definitely not happen in the real world. After all, unscientific things like life simulators had happened to him. What has been happening all these years is the most unlikely.

It's just that Zhou Ming doesn't think that the one who turns an ordinary stone into a stone essence is a fairy in people's common sense. In his opinion, it must be another technology that he still can't understand.

But if such an unpredictable and unstoppable thing is about to happen, Zhou Ming has nothing to do.

And if such a thing really happens, not only can half of the task of releasing the life simulator to Zhou Ming be completed ahead of schedule, but Zhou Ming can also be provided with research materials. Not only is it not a bad thing for Zhou Ming, but it is also a good thing.

Of course, the research material mentioned here refers to normal research, not the kind of destructive research that kills the chicken and takes the eggs.

Many people think that if they have some kind of supernatural power, if they are found out, they will definitely be sent to the planing table. Although this kind of thinking cannot be said to be wrong, it is completely impossible.

After all, things like supernatural powers were popular overseas and domestically for a period of time in the last century, and even the officials of the two superpowers were studying them.

And there were people who claimed to be like this in China back then, but not only were they not sent to the planing table, but they became guests of honor.
