Chapter 102: Humanity Needs Evolution

Xia Ming said in a very affirmative tone: "I think this is also a very important and necessary evolution of human beings themselves. ”

He asked: "Mr. Hassabis, just now we all talked about what human society will look like when artificial intelligence matures in the future. You can also imagine how people would position themselves in a society where people no longer do manual labor, service and managerial work? ”

"yes, people who oppose AI often scold me on Twitter, saying that in 10 or 20 years I'm the culprit for 90 percent unemployment," Hassabis laughed. ”

"That's right, the unemployment rate, this is the biggest concern for the development of robots and artificial intelligence," Xia Ming said, "but I'm not worried about this, because in the era of artificial intelligence, the definition of concepts such as occupation, labor and work will change a lot." Human beings will work more for the sake of interest, for the realization of themselves. ”

In fact, this momentum is already happening now. In our Galaxy of Illusions, there are already a lot of people who have been paid to join teams at research and educational institutions. There are also many people who are participating in commercial activities based on Galaxy of Illusions, such as making film and television works, and they can also get paid quite a bit under a business model similar to crowdfunding. ”

But in order for this trend to become the mainstream model of the future society, it is necessary to ensure that people are driven by their own consciousness to make choices, because it is in accordance with his true will, and it is something that he is interested in or fervently wants. Rather than being arranged and planned by other people's driven artificial intelligence, to be squeezed. ”

Hassabis let out a long sigh: "I probably understand your thoughts, you think that after entering the era of artificial intelligence, human beings must also evolve in their autonomous consciousness, otherwise they will not be able to match such technological development." ”

"That's right! Humanity needs to evolve! ”

Xia Ming seemed to have slapped him on the knee. Excitedly said, "Do you understand?" That's great! ”

"Yes, if that's the direction, I think...... I don't think it's refutable, you're right", Hasabis was convinced.

The three bigwigs have actually been persuaded a long time ago, but the angles are different.

Then I heard Xia Ming ask: "Actually, we are already working hard in this regard." It has also tentatively launched some technologies, focusing on how to map people's autonomous consciousness to artificial intelligence, and there is a shortage of experts like you right now......"

Xia Ming actually wanted to recruit Hassabis!?

This made the three bigwigs secretly gasp, these two people got together, and they wanted to finish!

They all thought it was incredible, who was Hasabis? Are you just Xia Ming qualified to recruit?

I heard Hassabis laugh and say, "Xia, do you want to buy DeepMind?" ”

Although it was a private conversation, Hassabis maintained the necessary caution and shifted the conversation from him personally to the company.

"Google only bought you for $400 million. We can afford the price, but it's definitely more than that now. If it's $4 billion, then we can only wait for the earnings reports of several of our companies to come out next year. ”

Xia Ming's tone was so big......

Thinking about it again, Xia Ming seems to really have this confidence.

Don't look at several of his companies are just start-ups, and there is not much cash in his pocket. But just a cicada, relying on the clover structure, the revenue will definitely go to a billion dollars during the year.

Cicada is also operating Galaxy of Illusions, with three tests scheduled for mid-April. The scale was set at one million, but now it is hard to find. On the black market, it was fried to thousands of dollars. When it is officially operated, how can the players be tens of millions of people, and it is not a problem to make hundreds of millions of dollars in half a year, which is still calculated in half according to the operation model of legendary games.

The illusion side is aimed at the commercial market, and the revenue of the Alfalfa engine in the fields of film and television and art is difficult to estimate, but how can it be hundreds of millions of dollars. If June really launched a full-fledged general-purpose neuronal chip. There is no way to calculate the income.

Not to mention that Xia Ming also made Char Heavy Industries, and I heard that he won a big order of more than one billion dollars at once in a big dog household.

In this way, Xia Ming may really come up with this money next year.

If you don't take the money and directly play the share exchange acquisition, the total valuation of Xia Ming's three companies. How can it be rushed to tens of billions of dollars, and the acquisition of DeepMind is easy.

Hassabis seemed polite and self-deprecatingly said: "If it is really four billion dollars, Larry may agree, after all, we don't have any actual performance yet, we are all helping Google advertise." ”

"Really? I really want to mention it to Mr. Page when you say that", Xia Ming was very happy: "You see, Google also sold Boston Dynamics, maybe we can really work together." ”

Hearing that Xia Ming was serious, Hassabis was a little flustered, and offered the official statement: "Uh, uh, I still only use this topic as a joke when chattering." Google's sale of Boston Dynamics is not only due to technical reasons, but also to the issue of performance expectations, and we at DeepMind have no problem with both. ”

Xia Ming sighed: "Performance expectations ......"

"Yes", Hasabis had to say dry goods in order to dispel Xia Ming's thoughts: "In the robot project, Google hopes to give priority to solving practical problems such as logistics and home services, and Boston Dynamics wants to continue to improve the perception and movement ability of robots, and there is no realistic product plan, which is not suitable for commercial organizations." The general-purpose artificial intelligence created by DeepMind will have more mature applications in the next few years. ”

Xia Ming smiled: "Moreover, Boston Dynamics also has a relationship with the US military, just like our side also has a relationship with the Huaxia military, so you have to avoid this topic, right?" ”

Hassabis also smiled: "You know...... Haha......"

Xia Ming stopped talking about this topic and turned to talk to Hassabis about neuronal chips, and the conversation between the two entered a rather obscure professional field. Xia Ming even brought out Freud's psychological theories, and made a corresponding analysis with the artificial intelligence software and hardware system he conceived.

The three of them looked at each other, and they all understood that they couldn't listen to it anymore, so they could only let the professionals under them who understood these things to sort out and analyze.

Li Zhi was the first to speak: "Extreme liberal, anarchist ......"

Yang Yu smiled: "He is more suitable for writing science fiction novels." ”

Teng Hua spread his hands and said, "What are you worried about such a person?" ”

Yang Yu agreed: "He not only questions the country, but also opposes business, he is the enemy of the whole world!" Can someone like him continue to stand still and play his game? That's illogical. ”

Li Zhi's brows kept frowning when he heard this, and when he heard the two of them say this, he frowned even tighter, and he sighed: "When Xia Ming originally used Prometheus to shoot at the mobile phone, those people in the mobile phone circle also thought so, and the result? Don't forget, there is also the military behind him, and there is a mysterious research institute! ”

Speaking of the military, Teng Hua and Yang Yu were silent.

Not only the military, but Xing Gongzi was also planted under Xia Ming. A character of Xing Gongzi's level has a sense of oppression for the three of them, but Xia Ming easily resolved it, and it is said that he only did it in a few days.

Although they don't know the inside story, judging from Xing Gongzi's later avoidance of Xia Ming like a snake and scorpion, maybe there is something that is not known to outsiders.

"Since this is the case, it will be simpler", Teng Hua showed the legendary decisiveness: "In business, come with him with a knife and a gun!" He can toss artificial intelligence like this in half a year, I invest ten times the resources, get the product in half a year, and only hold my territory, I don't believe that I can't even do this! ”

Yang Yu nodded: "The clover structure will be rolled out, at least half a year to a year, I think it is still too late to step up investment from now on." ”

The threat of artificial intelligence and clover to search and interaction is imminent, and the threat to e-commerce and online payment is not so urgent, and Yang Yu is very stable.

"This is right, but the route Xia Ming wants to take, isn't it monopoly? Can't we legally bind him? ”

Li Zhi is the most unable to sit still, and in the past half a month, the analysis of big data based on search engines has made him see the power of Prometheus PC.

"After all, isn't storytelling the most important quality in our industry? The fact is that he has not yet formed a monopoly, and if you want to talk about monopoly, the three of us are the main ones. ”

"The field of artificial intelligence has not yet risen, how should the law be determined? If you want to legislate and interpret the law, don't ask him to be a consultant, it's so targeted, what will other people think about other industries? We don't eat everything. ”

Teng Hua and Yang Yu did not agree with Li Zhi's idea, although Xia Ming was a threat, it was not a safe choice to let Xia Ming fight Li Zhi first.

Teng Hua also said: "The shares of Xia Ming's companies are like iron buckets, and outsiders are not allowed to enter, maybe this is an opportunity." ”

Since he said this, he naturally wouldn't make a move.

Li Zhi snorted, knowing what Teng Hua was calculating. Xing Gongzi planted it, and he wants to jump into the pit again?

Yang Yu saw his thoughts: "We know that Xia Ming may have a background, so it's not good to come forward rashly, but others may not know." Even if you give him a little trouble, or let him expose his hole cards, it can be regarded as a gain. ”

Li Zhi said with a calm face: "You two, you are really better than Alpha Dog and can play chess!" It's okay, anyway, I'm in the way of this, and I'll open the way for everyone! ”

"Haha...... Lao Li, maybe it won't be your turn to open the way! ”

Teng Hua said with a smile: "The conversation between Xia Ming and Hasabis has leaked out, and there are more people who are more anxious than you!" ”

Yang Yu nodded and muttered, "I don't know who leaked it, this is really big news." ”

Teng Hua sighed with other feelings: "Yes, big news, so, let's sit and watch the upstairs first." ”

Yang Yu answered: "This building is too high, I'm afraid the wind is too strong." (To be continued.) )

PS: There is a second update in the afternoon, and then the relevant narrative comes to an end, this part is the foundation and core of the technology and concepts in the book, so it takes some space to write, and I hope you don't get too long-winded, and tomorrow will enter a new stage of science and technology display.
