Chapter 169: The Ultimate Goal of Artificial Intelligence

In the lecture hall of Harvard Business School, Wu Tao drank saliva and moistened his throat. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the report and speech just now, he wrote it in one go, expressing the theoretical system of artificial intelligence in simple terms. He found that he preferred to present his research progress and scientific and technological achievements in this academic atmosphere rather than discussing and reporting with experts with secret missions.

However, the core secrets of artificial intelligence are far from being revealed in a 90-minute presentation.

In fact, in the process of preparing the report, Wu Tao naturally made some additions and decreases that avoided the important and trivialized. As for the core part, there is no mention of it. Therefore, even if someone has ulterior motives and wants to crack Tianyu's artificial intelligence platform by studying the content of his report, it is simply a fantasy.

Wu Tao looked at his watch and said, "Okay, everyone, that's all for the official report." If you have any questions next, just ask. We still have forty minutes to go! ”

In his opinion, the question session of the academic report will not be more difficult to deal with than the product launch or press conference. He had participated in the latter many times, so he was not nervous at all about the question-and-answer session that Ni was quite nervous about at the moment.

The audience instantly held hands like a forest, and Wu Tao first clicked on a blonde girl who was looking forward to it.

"Mr Wu, I'm Claire from the School of Mechanical Engineering, and I have benefited a lot from listening to your report. As you mentioned in your report, Tianyu's intelligent robot business has been fully developed and will bring earth-shaking changes to the manufacturing industry. In this regard, I would like to ask you to elaborate on what kind of changes will occur in the entire social structure and form with the deepening of artificial intelligence, and how should we respond? ”

"Ok, Claire, that's a good question. There is no doubt that Tianyu intelligent robots, breakthroughs in a number of key technologies, means that the era of Industry 4.0 is coming. It's a European concept, but I think it's more appropriate to call it the Fourth Industrial Revolution. ”

"The direct effect of every industrial revolution is to promote the rapid development of industry and make human life better and better. At the same time, it is also changing the way each of us lives and behaves in the social and humanistic aspects. ”

"With much of the manufacturing industry fully automated, there will inevitably be a lot of people coming out of the heavy manufacturing industry. This will bring a large amount of idle labor to the society, and this part of the population will flow to other industries, which will inevitably have an impact on today's industrial structure and social form. ”

"Countries and regions dominated by heavy industry and manufacturing will become prominent flashpoints of contradictions. As for how to deal with it, the high-level heads of state should have more experience than I do. First, improving the social welfare system is the first priority, second, balancing the income gap between all classes is also very necessary, and the third point is the most important! ”

Speaking of this, Wu Tao paused and continued: "Even if robot automation is realized, the earth civilization is still extremely low-level in the vast universe. We haven't even stepped out of the solar system on which we live, and of course we can't just sit in a well and watch the sky! If one day, the alien conspiracy of the Ghost Messenger does come to Earth, what will we do to deal with it? ”

“…… So the third point is that I think we should encourage education for all, and encourage exploration and innovation from both the micro world and the macro world. Perhaps in some countries, the education of fools is more conducive to the survival of rule, but for the sake of the future of human civilization, I would like to say, enough! ”

Warm applause broke out below, and Wu Tao calmed down his impassioned mood a little and lit up the second questioner.

A middle-aged Asian man in his forties with high glasses took the microphone and said in stiff English, "Mr. Wu, fortunately!" Contemptible Takata Miki. ”

Wu Tao's eyes narrowed, it turned out to be an RB person!

Then Miki Takata muttered: "I have to admit that Mr Wu's intelligent robot has performed very well, leaving companies such as Fanuc and Yaskawa Electric, which have accumulated over the years, far behind!" It all stems from Mr. Wu's major breakthrough in artificial intelligence. ”

“…… One day, when artificial intelligence evolves to be powerful enough, and at the same time, all walks of life are flooded with intelligent robots as the main labor force, if artificial intelligence mutinies due to the mutation of autonomous consciousness, or even some kind of malfunction, the consequences may be unimaginable! At that time, before human civilization left the solar system, it was destroyed by the robots created by itself, wouldn't it become a big joke? ”

“…… So I would like to ask Mr. Wu, how do you think you should deal with this possibility, as the father of intelligence? ”

This question is extremely acute!

The audience immediately began to discuss that Marcia, as the president of the American Academy of Sciences, already regarded Wu Tao as a member of the Academy of Sciences at this time.

Therefore, she did not hide her disgust for Ryuta Miki to raise such a controversial problem, and turned to the Harvard president next to her: "Catherine, Mr. Miki's question should not belong to the academic category!" ”

Catherine heard the meaning of Marcia's words, but she understood the stubbornness of this RB person, so she had to smile bitterly: "Marcia, Harvard has always advocated academic freedom of speech, and even as a president, it is inconvenient for me to interfere with him in raising such questions. ”

Ni Fengxue, who was far away in Ning'an, Huaxia, heard Miki Ryuta's question, and couldn't help but scold: "The little RB of the dog-day knows how to dismantle the stage indiscriminately, and actually asks such a tricky comprehensive question, obviously he wants to embarrass Wu Tao!" ”

At the report meeting, Wu Tao picked up the water cup and slowly sipped his saliva. Ryuta Miki's question can be described as extremely tricky.

If he says that human beings rebel against intelligent robots and must take precautions as soon as possible, it means that the business promotion of Tianyu intelligent robots will be greatly affected. Many core fabrications may not be able to use it due to safety concerns.

At the same time, it is also equivalent to admitting in disguise that his artificial intelligence is still not perfect and there is a great potential threat!

If he is convinced that intelligent robots cannot escape human control, it is equivalent to devaluing the technical content and future development potential of artificial intelligence.

In short, there are pits on the left and right.

Miki Takata seemed to have grasped this, with a sneer on his face, waiting for Wu Tao's response for a long time, and then waiting for the opportunity to chase and refute it.

Wu Tao put down the water glass, and already had an idea in his mind.

"Actually, Mr. Miki's question is the same as Claire's question just now."

The audience suddenly coaxed, and they were all puzzled: "It's obviously different, how can it be a problem?" ”

Wu Tao's voice continued: "The two questions, in the final analysis, are both about the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence......"

This answer suddenly made Miki Takata confused, and the two sets of rebuttals he had prepared suddenly fell short, and he could only follow Wu Tao's train of thought speechlessly.
