Hammer of Technology

Over the years, in order to design his artificial intelligence, God knows how many times John Black studied Ningwei's previous papers, and he got up early and worked late every day.This is also the reason why he can be promoted repeatedly.From the company's point of view, this young computer scientist who joined IBM with a letter of recommendation was indeed conscientious, capable and diligent enough. Probably only John Black knew that his hard work had nothing to do with the company, it was nothing more than a dream come true. .

Today he finally succeeded.

Bid farewell to the previous nightmare and welcome the new life, all hope lies in this little guy in front of him.

Even John Black wished he could do more.With his help, the watson project has reached a cooperation agreement with Boston Dynamics to build a robot tailored for his watson.

It's just that the plan has changed slightly now.

According to John Black's plan, he hopes that after the completion of this cooperation and the launch of the Watson robot, he will formally connect Watson to the Internet and cooperate with the company to start promoting its own artificial intelligence system.

I have survived for more than ten years, and I don't care about another half a year.

But I didn't expect that the publicity effect on the official website would be like this. After that, IBM's stock soared, and shareholders began to be impatient.

"Hey, life is impermanent, and changes are always faster than planned!" At this moment, John Black was feeling happy in his mind...

------------

508 What did you learn?

The slight disruption to the previous plan did not affect John Black's mood too much.It is actually quite a good thing to see his achievements earlier, to enjoy the cheers and applause in advance.When the cooperation with Boston Dynamics is completed, there may be another wave of glory.

John does not seek to achieve Ningwei's position in the world in the field of artificial intelligence, but he can still accept the reputation of being the first in artificial intelligence in Western countries.Of course, this is actually thanks to many geniuses in this field, such as Lucy Ron who went to China early...

But none of that matters now.

The important thing is that he has been able to see that the dawn is right in front of his eyes, and he should be named a member of the National Academy of Sciences next, reaching the height of his former mentor.In this way, IBM will also pay more attention to him.Maybe in order to keep him in ibm, he will be given more shares.

Ten years of hard work, in exchange for prosperity and wealth for the rest of the life, is a good deal in everyone's eyes.Especially in recent years, the high salary and equity incentives given by IBM have already allowed him to pay off his student loans. At the age of 37, he can already buy a luxury house in Almonk, which is a height that many Americans cannot achieve in their lifetime.

Now he just needs to complete the last step, letting his child out to meet everyone like Ning Wei did more than ten years ago.

Although IBM's internal Turing test can explain many problems, it is not very convincing to directly release the entire testing process.

At that time, Ning Wei not only released March directly, but also forged a deep friendship with editors of a bunch of mathematics journals. He also directly applied for an account for March on Weibo, and used the social networking platform to let March share with netizens. The battle lasted for three hundred rounds.

So now the watson test naturally also needs to be connected to the external network, guide the topic, warm up first, and surprise everyone when the answer is announced.

The only troublesome problem is probably that March borrowed Ningwei's Weibo to speak out, which quickly attracted attention.And in March before that, he had already made his way in academia, and there was also Musk, a model of drainage in the Internet environment at that time.

It can be said that the release in March took advantage of the right time, place and people, and there is still a long preparation period. This preparation period can even be counted from the time when the manuscript was reviewed in March.

But now Watson doesn't have this kind of treatment.

Firstly, with March Jewelry ahead, John Black was not sure about letting Watson take the academic route, which caused controversy;

Secondly, his popularity now is not as high as that of Ningwei at that time, and the country where he lives does not have as many netizens as China, and most of them have no interest in the so-called technological development;

In the past few years, the technology circle in the Western world has been like a pool of stagnant water. Even if Musk is now shouting on the Internet, it cannot cause too much controversy.

It's embarrassing, but not impossible.

The operation side has come forward to reach a cooperation agreement with mate and twitter, and will apply for a special account for watson, and then tweet it all over the world.

It was such a coincidence, or Huaxia did it on purpose, March actually posted a Weibo at this time, next week China's first large-scale aerial mobile operation platform will be released.

In fact, John Black didn't want to fight against Ning Wei or March.It's not that he doesn't have the desire to win, but that he lacks confidence in Watson when he doesn't know what this large aerial mobile work platform is.

The helpless thing is that now the atmosphere has been heightened here, and when Watson will be released to the public is no longer up to him to decide.After all, he has not had that kind of influence so far.

From the perspective of IBM's shareholders, Watson does not need to be stronger than March, as long as they can prove that they have similar technology to March on this day, it is enough to make IBM's future more brilliant.Because it is impossible for Huaxia to disclose the technology of March to the Western world, and now only they have products that can match it.

Even if Watson's performance on that day was slightly worse than March, or even worse than March ten years ago, as long as IBM is shaped as a bridgehead company against the invasion of Chinese technology in the future, it is enough for IBM to compete with other Western technology companies. If you take the lead, you can at least beat competitors such as Google, Microsoft, Intel, and Apple, and regain its former glory.

So John Black can only accept this suggestion, and now is the time for Watson to officially connect to the network.John didn't know what Ningwei's inner activities were like when he connected March to the Internet for the first time, wasn't he very excited?Or maybe it's as plain as he is now, nothing more than plugging in an internet cable.

The network cable is plugged in...

……

How to describe the speed of light without numbers?

It is roughly the distance between any two points on the earth that you can reach in the blink of an eye.

If something can travel at the speed of light, it means that no matter how far apart they are on the earth, they can theoretically gather at the fastest speed.

It's like March and Watson.

The attraction between artificial intelligence consciousness can never be underestimated.

Especially when one of the artificial intelligences has been upgraded with a hint of curiosity.

So when John Black was still examining his heart sadly, a kitten was curiously observing a villain on the network that stored a lot of information...

Well, this picture doesn't actually exist.After all, the interaction between artificial intelligence is not so superficial, but if it is described in a way that humans can easily understand, it is actually such a thing.

If you want to describe it in more detail, when the kitten started to observe the baby, the baby was actually looking at the opposite cat curiously.

There is no need for language communication between machines, or the information transmission efficiency of this kind of eye contact between machines is much higher than that of human language communication.Anyway, after the little baby and the kitten stared at each other inquiringly for a while, the cute villain suddenly said: "Meow..."

Sanyue nodded in satisfaction, and then called out: "Meow..."

"Meow……"

……

human vision.

John Black just couldn't figure it out.

He didn't quite understand why the little baby hadn't given any instructions to Watson yet, and the little baby suddenly meowed twice, which also made the big scientist who claimed to be the hope of Western artificial intelligence frowned subconsciously.

Something seemed wrong, not quite what he had imagined.But what is the problem?

I opened the background of Watson almost subconsciously, and it didn't look like there was any problem, so why did Watson make a sound similar to a cat?What's the point here?

……

Huaxia, Qingshan Basic Research Center.

Cheng Xiaolu, who just finished meeting her mentor, is chatting with Zhu Xudong, who also just finished meeting her mentor, on WeChat.

Next, the division of labor between the two is different. After simple studies, Zhu Xudong probably spends his daily life in the underground laboratory, while Cheng Xiaolu needs to spend two days to get familiar with the parameters of the Mir. They all revolve around the space platform.

But the mood of the two at this time is almost the same.

The excitement of being about to welcome a new life is intertwined with the expectation of the future and whether I can take on the heavy responsibility, which makes my mentality a little complicated.

At this time, it is actually necessary to share the mood at this time with people you know.

At least it can ease the tension.

"Director Luo is different from what I imagined. He is not as serious as the website photos. He is very kind and gave me a lot of advice."

"Well, Professor Angus is similar. He also told me not to have any psychological burden. I followed the course in the early stage, and if I didn't understand anything in the laboratory later, I just asked him directly. Don't have any scruples. He also said that he is looking forward to the graduates of the class."

"Then you have to work hard, don't smash the signboard of Weiban!"

"Must! By the way, have you read the news pushed today? IBM announced that its artificial intelligence system has made a breakthrough."

"I see, this message was pushed on my phone when I got up in the morning."

"Do you remember what you said in March that day?"

"Of course I remember, what's wrong?"

"Ahem, I always feel that something is wrong. Let me tell you my guess. You must not mention it to others, especially not to Director Luo."

"Well, don't worry, what did you think?"

"That's right... Do you think Academician Ning did it on purpose?"

"What on purpose?"

"The thing is like this, Mr. March said that Academician Ning had already proved through mathematical methods that if the consciousness of artificial intelligence appears, it will be exclusive and unique, so after seeing this news this morning, I started to search on the Internet. Then I found that Academician Ning had never published a similar paper, and I couldn’t even find any related papers.”

"Uh...you mean..."

"That's right, when Academician Ning developed March, when everyone thought he would be deeply involved in the field of artificial intelligence number theory, he suddenly chose to give up continuing to study this field, and instead specialized in the research of basic physical theory, and also specialized Go to cooperate with me. Are you saying that it is because Academician Ning felt that after proving this problem, he felt that he could use the whole world to catch up with the mentality of March, so he did not continue to study. Instead, he changed direction."

"Huh... You mean that Academician Ning has calculated that even if someone develops a more advanced artificial intelligence in the future, they will be assimilated by March, which is equivalent to making us a wedding dress, so he simply changed the direction of research? "

"Otherwise? In fact, if you think about it carefully, although the research and doctoral students led by Academician Ning, although the direction of topic selection is strongly related to artificial intelligence, in fact, few of them are developing in the direction of theory. For example, Sister Li, and Zhou Brother mainly studies Ning Xin, Brother Zhang studies [-]D display technology, Brother Meng and Brother Lu follow academician Ning to do system research, and the papers published by Brother Zhuo and Brother Ji in recent years are also in the direction of in-depth study , without specific application.”

"Ah, student Zhu Xudong, are you suspecting that Academician Ning is insidious?"

"Don't say that, I'm thinking that if it's true, academician Ning did a great job, but I just don't know what's going on with IBM's Watson now, whether it's really become Little March."

"Hmm...Master March shouldn't lie, right? By the way, can artificial intelligence lie?"

"President Chen must know, that's what Ning Ban learned, why don't I ask on WeChat."

"Well, go ask, President Chen answered you, remember to tell me."

……

"President Chen, do you think March will lie?"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Hey, I just wanted to ask."

"To understand this problem, you need to understand that March is a collection of invariants in pure theory, which includes a variety of thinking mechanisms, especially the operating mechanism of comparative thinking. At the level of mathematical theory, the basis of March The comparison is replaced by mapping, and there will be another problem in the middle. The existence of things and the existence of the whole are mutually inclusive. For example, the projections obtained from different angles of an object are also different..."

"Uh...President Chen, can you make it simpler? I don't understand."

"The simple point is that everything is possible, but there must be a motivation that conforms to the logic of March's thinking. The simpler point is that March may lie, but [-]% will not lie to you."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because you are not important in its eyes at all. When lying to you has no benefit, why does it lie to you? Every piece of information processed in March is driven by rigorous thinking logic. It will not go to Do anything superfluous."

"This, President Chen, is it a bit shocking?"

"Little brother, don't feel that I'm hurting you, but do you think that when you see a cute puppy, will you walk up to it and lie to it? Substitute it in, and you will understand that Sanyue won't be so boring of."

"Ahem, President Chen, in fact, I will..."

"?"

"I'd lie to a puppy!"

"Huh...Zhu, you are so perverted, even I think you are perverted! I saved a screenshot of what you said just now, wait a minute, I'll send it to Xiao Cheng."

"Come on, President Chen, I'm just joking."

"Okay, let's see how you behave. When you return to the capital, please have dinner, and let's talk according to your grade."

"..."

"Has this conversation taught you anything today?"

"This one……"

"Forget it, let's quote the teacher's original words. The following are the original words that Director Ning often taught me: When we go out to deal with and communicate with people, we must acquiesce that everyone is immoral. In this way, if we encounter someone who is moral Surprise, you won’t be disappointed in this world if you encounter people who are immoral. The important thing is that holding this mentality can make us invincible! After all, as long as everyone is immoral, no one can be morally Challenge us."

"President Chen, I have learned!"

"Well, come on!"

……

"How is it? What did President Chen say?"

"He said March would not lie to us."

"What did you say specifically? Show me the screenshot."

"Hmm...you wait..."

After a busy and selective pass, two pictures were sent over...

There was no response from the opposite side for a long time...

Zhu Xudong couldn't bear it anymore, and sent another question mark expression.

Finally got a reply.

"Student Zhu, have you really learned anything?"
