"Yesterday, Xiaohu Xu, vice president of Didi Chuxing and head of the technology ecology and development department, resigned and officially joined Tencent's platform and content business group as vice president, responsible for search algorithm and data business. ”

After listening to Cui Lina's words, Shen Feng sighed secretly, this kind of technical master is an unavoidable resource.

Seeing the boss's thoughts, Cui Lina is also very helpless, as the chief human resources, poaching people is also the key to measuring ability.

In the past two years, Wanli has spent a lot of money digging into the wall, the technical team has gradually matured, and a large number of talents have continued to pour in......

But compared to Ali Tencent?

It's still a lot worse!

Or the same sentence: which big bull is poor?

"He joined Didi as vice president in 18 years, responsible for the two core technical departments of marketing and map. At the end of the year, the express car business group and the luxury car business department were merged to form an online car-hailing platform company, and Xu Xiaohu was appointed as the CTO of the online car-hailing company......"

"At the beginning of this year, he suddenly transferred to the head of the Department of Science and Technology Ecology and Development, responsible for scientific research cooperation, talent training and academic exchanges, so I ......"

Shen Feng frowned, has Didi already floated like this?

Directly pay tribute to the technology bull?

I can't bear it anymore, so I have to leave!

He graduated from Tsinghua University and Princeton, and is recognized as a technical expert in the circle. He joined Google in 03 and was a core developer of the AdWords system, the main source of revenue in the early days.

Even Lao Peng said: Xu Xiaohu is one of the three engineers that domestic Internet companies most want to poach from Google!

The other two are Wu Jun, a former Google intelligent search scientist and vice president of Tencent Search, and Zhu Huican, the former technical director of Google's China Engineering Research Institute.

In the past six months, a number of senior executives have left Didi, including Qiu Guangyu, COO of the International Business Division...... Fu Junhua, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Pratt & Whitney Mobility & Services Business Group...... Song Shijun, head of the data science department......"

Cui Lina analyzed: "At the same time as Xu Xiaohu left, Liu Qing put forward three standards internally: the same desire from top to bottom, strong organization, and good generals. The move was interpreted internally as management starting to revise the organizational culture in response to the change. ”

Shen Feng subconsciously tapped on the desktop, his brain thinking quickly, PCG currently carries most of Tencent's platform-level businesses, such as social platforms, long and short videos, graphic information flow, etc.

Penguin has been criticized for paying too much attention to product capabilities and neglecting technology research and development and data construction, which has hindered the development of some businesses to a certain extent.

In the past, there was an eternal shield called user experience, but now the trend is to make decisions based on data. These mindset shifts are difficult for some veteran employees and require fresh blood to change the old culture.

Full implementation of the middle platform,

Advancing algorithms, data decisions, and growing the business,

Airborne technology newcomers and bulls.

Ye Fei is also deeply involved in PCG, and in addition to daily work, the product and technology lines of each business are currently undertaking the reform projects of several large and middle platforms of business groups, such as information flow, video encoding and decoding, and labeling capabilities......

"The big bulls who come back from Silicon Valley generally have an annual salary of 10 million yuan. Cui Lina said: "The engineers who came back from there have a good reputation at the executive level, which can bring Silicon Valley's culture of advocating simplicity and efficiency, and in a short period of time, many small teams working independently can be brought together and a bunch of chaotic back-end tools can be integrated." ”

Sent Cui Lina away and called Ye Fei to discuss how to better dig the foot of the wall, Ye Fei said helplessly: "It's not about money." ”

Shen Feng nodded, pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, you compile a list of technical talents, don't stick to the so-called big bulls and experts, as long as you have expertise." ”

Ye Fei instantly understood what the boss meant, if he fought hard for power, Wanli had only been established for five years, and he couldn't do Ali Tencent if he died. bar

In this case, you can only look for potential stocks, even if it takes two or three years to cultivate, it is better than no talent reserve.

Shen Feng shook his head, this is also a helpless thing, the strength is not enough to plug in to make up, and lock the pearl in the sea through the golden finger, maybe there will be a big surprise.

"Recently, face sales have become popular, and many companies have suffered a lot. Ye Fei reported the problem: "You can perform operations such as blinking, opening your mouth, nodding your head, etc., and through face recognition verification, a static only needs five cents, photo activation software and tutorial 35 yuan." ”

Shen Feng was taken aback, which means that he only needs to spend a lunch to change faces with others?

Or even use this face to open the private software in other people's phones?

"5 yuan for a face, 25 yuan for a website account. Ye Fei explained: "As long as you transfer money to WeChat or Alipay, you will be given an ID number after payment, and you can pass the verification by filling in the face recognition page." ”

"This face is not limited to the number of times it can be used, it is equivalent to a buyout, and it is claimed that the official will never detect abnormalities. ”

"Buyers and sellers only need to spend 25 yuan to buy a passable account, and they can trade faces on it, and the number of cards is not limited. ”

"Many of the customers are minors, mainly for playing games, and now there is an anti-addiction system......"

Shen Feng is also drunk, are all children so high-end?

"Of course, these are all petty fights, and after Didi Hitch re-launched last year, both drivers and passengers need to pass facial recognition verification for registration, and the vetting of drivers has been strengthened. ”

"This is done to prevent problems such as inconsistent information on people and vehicles, and it is difficult to hold accountable if something happens, and it plays a psychological restraining role for drivers. ”

"It was originally a good thing, but now it can be disintegrated with just 400 yuan, and after the first successful verification, this face will be able to be used permanently. ”

"The most dangerous is the payment tool, which is specially sold to deal with Alipay's face, 110 yuan a piece, after payment, there is customer service synchronization, remote operation, and it is covered within 2 hours. ”

"The most powerful hacker, as long as he can provide personal information, directly use AI to generate, even the bank can cheat!"

Shen Feng looked at a "Face Recognition Tool" document, which contains 15 tutorials and tools such as controlling facial expressions, 3D face making, blinking and nodding scripts, and detailed explanations of face features, mainly in the form of text and video, priced at 15 yuan each, and is actually sold publicly?

Ye Fei was a little indignant and said: "The mentality of most buyers feels that they are just buying a little virtual thing, which is not too serious, and even a little fun." ”

It is the majority who do not think so, conniving at the growth of this black industry. ”

"...... of financial functions such as face scanning payment and installment shopping"

"Smart park functions such as face attendance and access control......"

"One-click makeup, video face swap and other entertainment functions ......"

"Scanning the face to confirm the driver's identity and other travel functions......"

"Searching for missing persons, identifying travel violators and other security functions......"

"Now the market size of face recognition has reached 15 billion, and the application covers security, finance, personal intelligence, Internet services and other fields......"

Shen Feng knew that this was not alarmism, and at any moment, our faces could be stolen by ill-intentioned people, or even spied on our lives.

In February this year, the internal systems of ClearviewAI, an artificial intelligence facial recognition company in the United States, were hacked, and the data of more than 2,000 customers was leaked, even the police, law enforcement agencies and banks.

3 billion face data has been leaked, and just one face photo can search for the source of the photo, as well as the personal information of the photo owner, such as name, contact information, home address and even other public photos!
