Chapter 102: Wonderful Speech (Plus Update)

The captain of the Xue Naval Corps, named Gao Yuan, is one of the oldest debaters in the audience except for the tutor and foreign capital, 33 years old this year, and his profession is an executive of a technology company.

The opposing side argued three times, and the captain of the Lexiang side team was named Zhang Wenping, who was also one of the oldest debaters, 36 years old this year, and was a university lecturer by profession.

In fact, it doesn't matter how many votes are in front of you, the final result only depends on the performance of the two of them, each of whom has a chance to speak, a chance to open a bar and a chance to conclude a debate.

Of course, now the positive side is already a big disadvantage, and the opposite side is the party that speaks later, and the positive side does not have an advantage in the regular speech.

The personnel arrangement of this field was also carefully considered by Luo Mingjie, and the personal wishes of the players were fully respected. The identities of the two people are closely related to this debate.

Gao Yuan straightened his crisp suit and stood up.

Although he is an executive and a proper successful person in the eyes of everyone, it is still inevitable to be a little nervous in this situation.

"When I heard that "Best Debater" was reformatted, my first reaction was actually a little surprised, I was thinking, this is also called debate? But then I think about it, one of the benefits of this format is that it gives me enough time and no pressure to share some of the little lessons in my life with you. ”

"As you know, I have another identity besides being a debater, I am the management of a company that researches artificial intelligence technology, and before I was promoted to management, I was an ordinary programmer, or scientific researcher. Like many of you, I went through that long war, and of course, it had an impact on me and led me into the field of artificial intelligence, which was rejected by everyone. ”

"Before I really started the research in this field, I spent many years studying English, computer science, and learning a lot of basic knowledge concepts, and finally I really started the research in the field of artificial intelligence, which is where I am today. Please think about it, is the process of learning this knowledge meaningful? ”

"Of course, I know you're going to say it makes sense, because it's the process of learning and mastering knowledge. But what I want to research and explore is the most cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology, and my years of learning are just a tool. Suppose, if I was able to get these basic knowledge, get these tools, and I was able to save many years of time when I first entered the industry, how much progress would I have made today? ”

"This is just one example of me, think about each of you, how much time do you have in your field of expertise, and how much time is actually spent researching? If there was a chip now that could put cutting-edge knowledge directly into your mind, how much time would you save, and how far would that time be enough for you to move forward in this professional field! ”

The scene instantly burst into warm applause!

Gao Yuan's speech is completely from his own point of view, explaining a simple truth, that is, this technology can save a lot of learning time and reduce costs, and this will inevitably promote the progress of technology and research, so that everyone's work can be easier and more efficient, and it is precisely because of himself that this speech is very down-to-earth and can resonate with the audience.

Takahara ignored the applause of the audience and continued.

"One of the arguments on the other side is very interesting, that is, ignorance is also a kind of happiness, and the world where everyone shares knowledge is ridiculous, for example, it is very absurd to see a beggar on the street who is opening his mouth and closing his mouth about calculus. But I have a different opinion on this. ”

"Knowledge determines our vision, we often say that the poor think and the rich think, what is the difference between the two? It's a difference in vision, but also a difference in knowledge. The world in the eyes of ordinary people is completely different from the world in the eyes of professionals. For example, if you see a sky full of stars, you will just say, "The stars are so beautiful." But when an astronomer sees a sky full of stars, he can call out the names of every galaxy, he can know how far away each star is from us, and he can even tell the story of how we found it...... What is it called? This is called the joy of knowledge. ”

"It is true that ignorance and rejection of knowledge can be very happy, but think about it, don't you want to know what the name of each star is? Don't you want to know how many years of long journey through the universe did those lights from the stars come to Earth? Or do you just want to look up at the stars, just to see the stars shine, and you're satisfied? ”

"Knowledge sharing is equivalent to showing us the colorful world in the eyes of others, and our own world is beautiful, but, guys, don't you want to go to other worlds to see? Can you really resist the beauty of the world you've never been exposed to? ”

"If one day, beggars on the street are opening their mouths and closing their mouths about calculus, what's the difference? Is it just because he is a beggar that we have to deprive him of the right to know the world and feel beauty? Moreover, if he really knows this knowledge, he will realize his own shortcomings, and I think he will start a brilliant life of his own, instead of continuing to be a beggar! ”

The audience burst into applause.

"Amazing, that's great!"

"Indeed, the beggar says that calculus is strange, but what's so bad?"

"I really cried, I was so touched! In the past, it was always said that we didn't understand the world of Xueba, because we didn't understand the beauty of knowledge, and we couldn't go into those worlds at all before, but now if there is this technology, I will definitely support it with both hands! ”

Gao Yuan still continued to speak when the applause did not completely stop, and he wanted to take advantage of the current heat to strike while the iron was hot to strengthen the concept in the audience's mind.

"To tell the truth, we who stand on the stage today are all vested interests in knowledge, and we all benefit from knowledge. Because of our knowledge, we have gained our current job, our current social status, and even the right to stand here and speak for all audiences to see. We all know how important knowledge is to change our destiny, but how can we bear to deprive others of their right to knowledge? ”

"Going back to the beggar just now, what are we laughing at when all of us, including all the audience in the room, are laughing? We're laughing at the beggar's ignorance, we're laughing at the ridiculousness of his ignorance and talking about artificial intelligence and calculus. But we should be clear that all men are created equal is only a good wish, and in fact, many people are born at the end of the majority. ”

"Have you ever wondered why he became a beggar? You have been emphasizing that the result of learning is not important, the process is important, and you have to work hard, but do you know how many people can't learn even if they work hard? Maybe the beggar was born in a remote village in the 6th arrondissement, and no one from childhood could teach him true knowledge, maybe he tried, but failed again and again for various reasons? You have been emphasizing the small happiness of ignorance and the joy of striving to gain knowledge, but have you ever thought that for this beggar, perhaps ignorance is not a kind of happiness, and no matter how hard he tries, he cannot obtain knowledge, which is the eternal curse of fate! ”

"So, I sincerely call on everyone to embrace knowledge, embrace every unknown parallel world, and support this new technology, thank you!"
