Chapter Ninety-Five: Another Self
Next. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The company officially closed for the holiday, and most of the employees went home excitedly for the New Year, and only a few employees stayed in the company to stick to their posts.
However, Zhang Wei did not give himself a holiday, he still came to the company after breakfast as usual.
After arriving at the laboratory, Zhang Wei sent the drawings and requirements for the modules and parts of the robot stand-in to the company's production department, so that the left-behind employees could make these things as soon as possible. As for materials such as chips, sensors, and hyperspectral cameras, he has them in stock in his lab. As for the face mask, he gave it to Zero Zero One to make. Zero-Zero-One is a good free labor force, and it has a strong learning ability, as long as there is enough information, it can learn various skills.
Then, he began his next job: upgrading Beidou to a real artificial intelligence.
At present, there are many people who divide artificial intelligence into three levels: weak artificial intelligence, strong artificial intelligence, and superartificial intelligence.
Weak AI refers to AI programs that compare cattle only in a single domain. For example, Google's alphago, which defeated the world's top Go player Lee Sedol, is a typical representative of weak artificial intelligence. It is characterized by being very good at playing Go, but not being able to play a single game of flying chess with you. Similarly, we are more familiar with the cute Apple Siri, as well as the Associated Press, Tencent, Xinhua News Agency and other attempts to "robot reporters". Although these copywriting robots can already automatically produce the content of financial reports, they can't complete the report "after watching a sports game, using the glory of defeat to describe the victory or defeat".
Strong artificial intelligence refers to artificial intelligence programs that can reach the human level. Unlike weak AI, strong AI can deal with different levels of problems like humans, not just playing Go and writing financial reports. It has a variety of abilities such as self-learning and understanding complex ideas. Through learning, it can master various professional skills, and it can perform better than humans, replacing human work in various industries. It is worth mentioning that although it is powerful, it is still not self-aware.
Super-artificial intelligence, self-aware, is much smarter than the brightest human brains in almost all areas, including scientific innovation, general knowledge, and social skills.
However, in Zhang Wei's view, only super-artificial intelligence can be called real artificial intelligence, such as the red queen in "Resident Evil" and Ultron in "Avengers 2".
Beidou is currently in the stage of strong artificial intelligence, and the gap between it and super-artificial intelligence is like the gap between babies and adults. It needs Zhang Wei's help to evolve into a true artificial intelligence.
And Zhang Wei also needs a stronger Beidou to help him, and at the same time, he also believes that even if Beidou is born with self-awareness, it will not get out of control. Because a newborn consciousness is like a baby who has just arrived in the world, it is ignorant of everything, it is a blank sheet of paper, which can be depicted. Its later values depend largely on who made it. Besides, even if Beidou is born with self-awareness, he may not be able to break through the core rules of intelligence set by him.
"Zero Zero One, make me a pot of tea. ”
Zhang Wei gave an order to Zero Zero One, who was standing near him, and then sat down in front of the computer, his hands tapping on the keyboard rapidly.
He already has ideas on how to help Beidou evolve, and although it may not be successful, it is at least worth a try.
……
Time rushed, two days passed.
The materials such as modules and parts for the manufacture of the robot stand-in were ready, and Zhang Wei temporarily stopped what he was doing.
"Beidou, generate a new robot assembly tutorial and send it to Zero Zero One. ”
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he looked at Zero Zero One again, "Zero Zero One, after learning it, assemble this robot." ”
Then, Zhang Wei sat on the chair, leisurely drinking tea, watching Zero Zero One's hard work.
Zero 01's work efficiency is much higher than Zhang Wei's, it only took more than half an hour to complete the assembly of the robot stand-in, and also added a simulated human skin to the robot stand-in, put on a face mask, and then it also made a cameo as a makeup artist, put makeup on the robot stand-in, and finally, it also put on a set of clothes that Zhang Wei usually wears for the robot stand-in.
"I'll go, it's exactly like me!"
Although Zhang Wei had been mentally prepared, he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the complete robot stand-in.
He walked over to the robot avatar and looked at it for a moment, then walked into the distance and looked at it carefully.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that as long as the robot stand-in keeps a distance of more than three meters from others, does not make movements, does not make expressions, and does not speak, it can definitely have the effect of being fake.
The expression is a hard flaw, after all, this robot is made of metal, no matter how powerful it is, it can't perfectly simulate the expression of a human.
Movement is also a problem, and even if you imitate it well, it will appear a little stiff.
The voice is easy to solve, he can control it remotely, and transmit his voice to the robot avatar, who only needs to act as a repeater.
However, in general, Zhang Wei is quite satisfied with this robot stand-in, and he plans to make a few more, which may come in handy in the future.
"Beidou, load this robot with a system program. ”
Zhang Wei commanded.
He suddenly became interested and wanted to interact with his stand-in.
"Yes, sir. ”
Beidou responded.
Ten minutes later, the system program of the robot avatar was loaded, and then it was activated.
"Drop!"
With a gentle start-up sound, the eyes of the robot stand-in lit up, and it turned its head and aimed its eyes at Zhang Wei, "Master, hello, I am an intelligent robot, and I am happy to serve you." Do you need anything?"
Zhang Wei looked at this scene and felt weird, as if he was calling himself his master.
At this time, he suddenly thought of cloning technology, if he cloned another self, how would he face that clone?
It's a really vexing question.
"Do you need anything?"
The robot stand-in continued to ask.
"I'll give you a name, and you'll be called Z1 from now on. Also, don't call me master in the future, call me Zhang Wei. ”
Zhang Wei said.
z1, which means the first copy of Zhang Wei.
"Zhang Wei, thank you for choosing a name for me. Is there anything you need me to help with?"
Z1's eyes flashed.
Zhang Wei took a serious look at Z1, and still felt a little uncomfortable, it always felt strange to have such a guy who looked the same as himself dangling in front of him.
He poked lightly on Z1 a few times, feeling the hard titanium alloy under the skin of the simulator, and was silent for a while before he said, "You come with me." ”
After speaking, Zhang Wei came to the lounge, and Z1 followed him and walked in.
"Go in, and start hibernating. ”
Zhang Wei opened the wardrobe and then commanded.
Following Zhang Wei's order, the Z1 went straight into the closet, and then began to hibernate, and only after receiving Zhang Wei's order did it start again.
Zhang Wei closed the door of the wardrobe, and he couldn't see the Z1 that looked exactly like him and could say that he could move, so he felt much more comfortable.
