Chapter 959: Alpha Dog
Rongcheng, Sichuan Province, Huanglong Ancient Town, the 2nd World Internet Conference.
"What are you saying Yahoo is doing, such a big battle!" said a reporter A
"Who knows, who can guess what the richest man Zhou wants to do!"
"Why did you bring the Koreans here?"
"Who's that South Korean?" Reporter: A, a few of them were chatting and sharing information.
"It seems to be Lee Sedol, the king of the Go world......" Reporter B
"What are they trying to do?"
"......" several people were speechless, and they couldn't think of anything. But it was nothing, and things soon became clear.
"Artificial intelligence vs. the world's first person to play Go!"
"Yahoo's Deepmind Alpha Dog vs. Lee Sedol!"
Before the official start of the World Internet Conference, Yahoo planned this man-machine showdown, and the rules of the competition were basically the same as in the previous life. Then several news stories quickly spread all over the Internet
This is the first large-scale publicity since Yahoo entered artificial intelligence, and the previous open-source deep learning framework is not like this time, and Yahoo has invested a lot of publicity resources in this regard.
"Man-machine war, such a wonderful thing, why don't you call me!" Someone kept calling Zhou Shi to ask for details. What details can be given, a very simple game, that is, the two opponents participating in the competition are a bit vulgar. And this man-machine war was promoted by him, but he was not responsible for the specific things. Although there is a Chinese player who wants to let the machine fight, there is really no one more convincing than Lee Sedol, and Gu Li lost 2-6 in the "Gu Li Shiban Chess". Ke Jie is just becoming famous now, what do you think he can do?
Knowing that the artificial intelligence vs. Go master, people from all walks of life rushed to the scene in advance, but fortunately, Rongcheng was well prepared.
It's a pity that this time in the AFC Champions League, the Rongcheng Kirin team entered the finals, the first game was held in Dubai, Zhou Shi didn't have time to watch, he also came to Rongcheng in advance.
"Finally a big move!" said a big guy in Sichuan Province
"It's been started a long time ago, but no one noticed!" Zhou Shi
The paper on the alpha dog has long been published in the journal Nature, but not many people have paid attention to it. There was also a duel with the European Go champions, but the opponent was too weak and did not have much influence, and the center of Go was still in East Asia. In addition, the publicity intensity is different, Yahoo and DeepMind have not done publicity before.
"Can you win Lee Sedol this time?"
"It's hard to say, it's more hopeful to win!" Zhou Shi
After investing so much, we always have to see the results, in fact, the performance of Alpha Dog this time also determines the future treatment of DeepMind, and it is impossible for Yahoo to support this British company without restrictions. Although Silicon Valley also has a branch, and DeepMind in the two cities has various personnel exchanges in addition to technology, the essence is still in the UK.
The Go game was not interesting at all, Zhou Shi gave up without reading a single game and came to Qingyang Palace to practice. However, there are many Taoist people waiting for him here, such as Quan Zhen and the boss of the Heavenly Master Dao of Longhu Mountain.
"What are they looking for you for?" Li Ying, on formal occasions, she has always accompanied Zhou Shi.
"They want me to become a monk and be a true man!" Zhou Shi joked.
"Let's lie to the ghost!" Li Ying obviously didn't believe it
"If you don't believe it, forget it!" Zhou Shi did not explain
China has always had such a tradition. Qingyang Palace is a Taoist ancestral court with a high historical status but relatively weak secular forces. Zhou Shi has a lot of support for it, of course, this is nothing to him, but it is just a drop in the bucket. However, among the three major sects in China, Taoism is the weakest. In the face of an old brother who suddenly became rich, it is naturally particularly eye-catching.
"Then you have to be careful, don't make a big deal out of a small thing!" Li Ying
Zhou Shi seems to be prone to making a small thing big and a big thing small. Overseas suppression of him is not once or twice, he has even eliminated and beaten, allowing many things to dissipate invisibly. Some people say that he is good at using public opinion, some people say that he is good at dimensionality reduction and blowing, you don't know what's going on at all, and the matter is over.
"Okay, listen to you!" Zhou Shi
He has no opinion on Taoism and Taoism, what do you like, anyway, if you want to fight him cheaply, it's better to stay away. The richer the person, the more difficult it is to be taken advantage of, it is not a question of who is smart, in addition to the accumulation of experience, there is also power. So many people helped Zhou Shi deal with all kinds of problems, and it was very difficult for him to show himself and suffer losses.
A few days later, the first man-machine war officially ended, there was a little episode in the middle, after the first game of the man-machine war was lost, Alpha Dog won four games in a row, ending the game......!
"Artificial Intelligence Kills World Champion ......"
"Alpha Dog beats ......"
"This is the first time in history, but it won't be the last ......"
"Humans will be eliminated by artificial intelligence!"
"Tremendous development of artificial intelligence!"
News has sprung up one after another. Alpha Dog deservedly became a tech star with global reach. DeepMind and its founder, Damith Hassabis, also became an overnight success.
The AI keywords were searched again and again in search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Baidu, and became the most frequently searched words in the next ten days.
The sound of "wolf coming" came and went, and Yahoo's stock price rose in response, and its market value finally exceeded $150 billion.
"Buy Yahoo!"
"Buying Yahoo is buying artificial intelligence!"
"The king of the era of artificial intelligence!"
"Another genius of Yahoo Investment, the flashpoint of the next decade!"
"There is no longer any reason for humanity to stop Yahoo from rising!"
How hot the discussion of artificial intelligence is in public opinion, then how hot is Yahoo's stock. Even if Google has the same technical strength as Yahoo, it can't stop the explosion of Yahoo's stock price!
"Congratulations, the richest man in the world!" a reporter interviewed Zhou Shi during the second World Internet Conference. Even if there is not only artificial intelligence but also Tesla's driverless cars that appear in Rongcheng at this time, Zhou Shi still occupies the headlines again.
"The richest man?" Zhou Shi asked in confusion.
"According to the latest statistics, your net worth has reached $81 billion, surpassing Bill Gai and becoming the new richest man in the world. "Journalists
"Oh, is there such a thing, sorry, I didn't notice!" Zhou Shi
"It's okay, I don't know what you think about becoming the new richest man in the world? At your age, you may be the richest man in the world for the next ten years. "Journalists
"It's not what I want, and you're probably going to be disappointed, I'm not going to be the richest man in the world anytime soon. Really, I don't lie to you!"
"Why?" journalists
"......" Zhou Shi smiled slightly and did not answer...... Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "The Rebirth of the Post-80s Legend Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
