Chapter 62: In-depth Dialogue

On the second day, another topic will be launched, namely: technological innovation and development, looking forward to the future and artificial intelligence.

Ren Hong also became a guest on this topic. In addition to Ren Hong, there was another heavyweight guest, that is, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Today, the scientific and technological innovation topic section has received a lot of attention, not because of how high and new the topic is, but because of two heavyweight guests. Needless to say, Ren Hong has now become another legend full of passion and inspiration after Jack Ma in China. His youth makes people feel more cordial, just like a kind of person. Ren Hong has become a Chinese-style figure like Bill Gates and Jobs, and he is undoubtedly pursued by a large number of Chinese people.

And Mark Zuckerberg is also a famous global figure. Around the world, more than 2 billion people know Mark Zuckerberg as a person. It can be seen that he is famous and can have such a huge influence. Li is also due to the Facebook in his hands. Similarly, Xiao Zha also has a lot of popularity in China, and is called Jack Ma of the United States by the Chinese. He is also a legendary and inspirational figure.

The thematic forum opened by Ren Hong and Zuckerberg is undoubtedly the most attractive place. Among the various forums, the thematic section where the two of them are located has the largest traffic. This is the netizen from all over the world. Have a strong onlooker for this in-depth exchange.

Actually, this is not surprising. The origins between Ren Hong and Zuckerberg are already eye-catching, but now they are praised by people as a symbol of Sino-US friendship, and the classic DT combination of the two sides is also admired Le Road. Since Facebook’s market value officially surpassed that of Apple, it has become the first corporate company represented by the United States. Although Matrix Technology XlouS has not been listed, it is the most valuable one of the representatives of major Chinese companies.

Representing the most valuable corporate companies of both parties, both young world giants, and a transnational in-depth dialogue between the Eastern and Western Hemispheres and looking forward to the future!

The two of them together are so topical and compelling.

At the scene, Ren Hong and Zuckerberg were sitting on a separate white curved sofa. Interestingly, the two sides were dressed in mirror images. This has long been discovered and discussed by netizens. .

After the exchange and dialogue is about to start, the host begins to say:

“…We are honored to invite Mr. Ren Hong, the founder of XlouS, from China, and our friend from the United States, Mr. Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO of Facebook, to participate in this in-depth conversation…”

“… Regarding artificial intelligence, it has not been considered a novel topic since the 1950s and 1960s. Artificial intelligence has become more and more popular. In real life, artificial intelligence has entered many This field is closely related to people's lives, so what is the impact of artificial intelligence on the future development of human beings, what do you two think?"

Zuckerberg was the first to answer: "AI (artificial intelligence) is already a common topic. In the future, if someone asks me what technology is the most important? I think it is AI. In the future, AI will be as important as electricity. , it is difficult for humans to leave AI.”

Ren Hong also said: "Maybe, in the future, as Mr. Sun Zhengyi said, in the future, it is not the population that determines a country's GDP ranking, but the number of intelligent robots and their intelligence." He With his legs raised, he leaned back against the sofa, held a microphone in one hand and said with a smile: "Currently, the GDP of the United States ranks first in the world, but whether it can continue to be the first in the near future is not a problem. Certainly."

Zuckerberg said: "To be honest, before the voice assistant 'Xiaoyou', I always thought IBM's 'Watson' was the most advanced AI in the world. But XlouS's intelligent voice assistant 'Xiaoyou' surprised me, she is so comprehensive, China already leads the world in AI field."

Zuckerberg's generous praise made the Chinese netizens who watched the video very proud, and China is another frontier hot spot ahead of Europe and the United States.

Zuckerberg restrained his surprised look, paused and continued: "Not just in China, but on a global scale, I think in the next 5 to 8 years, the major companies will usher in the biggest It is also one of the biggest challenges, and that is the rapid development and popularization of AI!”

The host nodded and said, "We all know that we are in the era of the sixth great wave recognized by mankind, which is the era of the Internet of Everything, mainly represented by smart homes, smart wearable devices and smart robots. What is the way these more and more emerging products interact with each other in today's era of Internet of Everything?"

"Voice!" Ren Hong said, and the host and Zuckerberg nodded to look at Ren Hong.

Ren Hong held the microphone and looked at the audience and the camera lens in front of him, "I think it's voice."

He added: "In my personal opinion, I agree that the future will be an era of the Internet of Everything with voice as the mainstay. Take our company's intelligent voice assistant 'Xiaoyou', voice is gradually replacing Control, instead of cumbersome operations, through language to complete the instructions and needs of people..."

"...In terms of voice. Throughout the history of human beings, historians and archaeologists and some scholars have generally reached a consensus that we humans are based on the birth of language. A breakthrough has been achieved. From the birth of human beings to the evolution of Homo sapiens over a long period of time, we know that the real difference between apes and Homo sapiens is not that they walk upright, but that Homo sapiens have their own unique language.”

"It is precisely because of the birth of language that all kinds of information can be communicated between people. This interaction allows the knowledge and culture accumulated by human beings to be passed on to the next generation, generation after generation. pass on.”

"I think... the development of artificial intelligence should also start from this aspect. In the future, intelligent machines and various interactive devices will allow artificial intelligence to acquire 'cognition' through language as the entrance..."

The discussion on artificial intelligence is not a matter of one or two days, but the in-depth dialogue on this topic is undoubtedly very hot. Not only Ren Hong and the others are communicating, but the netizens watching the video are also hotly discussing and expressing their opinions.

The host said: "...When it comes to artificial intelligence, we can't help but talk about another point. At present, there is always exciting news in the field of artificial intelligence, among which is the matrix technology XlouS, but people have a lot of interest in artificial intelligence. The worries of the people are also always present. Many movies such as "Terminator" and "The Matrix" have expressed their concerns and warnings to the world through artistic means. Maybe out-of-control machines do not always exist in the sci-fi world, maybe Exist in the near future. Philosopher Price once said: 'We must take seriously the moment that may evolve into a 'Pandora's Box', once artificial intelligence gets out of control, the consequences can be catastrophic.' Not only Price , the famous scholar Hawking, Musk and Bill Gates and others have expressed concerns about artificial intelligence. People are worried that when a high-level intelligent machine is created, it may be out of control, and the machine will affect human beings. and human values ​​will become indifferent.

In his view, a certain tipping point may be reached when computers can write their own programs to program themselves. Most people, scientists, philosophers, or free-thinking scholars are warning the world that these kinds of problems can be serious. "The host talked about the hottest topic about artificial intelligence. As long as artificial intelligence is mentioned, this topic is always unavoidable. Many netizens are listening carefully and want to see what the two big names on the stage have. opinion.

Zuckerberg was the first to speak, saying: "There are many experts in the field who believe that in the next 5 to 15 years or so, many of today's traditional occupations will disappear, and some data even show that there will be an astonishing 65%. %. They describe an exciting and terrifying future."

Zuckerberg continued: "Today's human beings are experiencing a very great and terrifying third technology industry revolution, which is a combination of biological genetic engineering, new material engineering and AI (artificial intelligence). .What impact will the emergence of AI bring to us human beings? I saw a forum discussion article about the army in a recent newspaper. By 2050, the army of a major country will be composed of three kinds of natural people, robots, and biological people. I mean, in 2050, it is hard to imagine what kind of shape human society will become in the future...

...In the near future, maybe 10 years, maybe 20 years, or a longer period of time, maybe about 80% of the people in the whole human society are very likely to be born and die, and they will be forever There is no job opportunity, but it does not sound like good news, no job is likely to bring a huge sense of boredom, emptiness, loneliness to the individual, the traditional country, the current management model of enterprises and organizations, and society, etc. There will be unprecedented challenges. "

Zuckerberg nodded and stopped talking. Ren Hong, who was on the side, pointed the microphone at his chin for a while, and said after facing the audience: "I agree with Zucker's view. Today we are sitting on the stage and are conducting Some exchanges may be considered nonsense, but this is the future, we are not experts in the future, and we cannot predict the real future, but we can talk about some dreams and the possibility of the future. On the topic of artificial intelligence, I think Needless to say, the trend is inevitable. No one can stop the development of technology, no matter who it is.

Everything in the world has two sides, and so does technology. It can bring us both positive and negative effects. Artificial intelligence will not be like movies like "Terminator" or "The Matrix" It is described in it that it is like a human war, this is just the fear that exists deep in our own human beings, because it (AI) does not need it at all, what does it mean to it? In essence, there is no right or wrong in technology itself, no matter whether technology brings us positive or even negative effects, it ultimately depends on our human choices..."

After a pause, as the audience pondered, he continued: "Suppose one day, some mad scientist, terrorist, or curious idiot writes one or two or more words about artificial intelligence. Instructions, one way or another. If you order artificial intelligence to destroy humans, artificial intelligence will execute the order. That is to say, artificial intelligence needs an order, which is equivalent to a target we are chasing. The difference is that we humans will give ourselves If you set a goal, you will give up or move forward bravely, but artificial intelligence will not generate orders on its own, nor will it be like us humans, even the so-called super artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence itself is just a tool. Therefore, it is the human beings who use tools that determine the fate of mankind. "
