171. News robots
Buying a small news company has always been Kwan Huang's idea.
If you want to make short videos, then the algorithm is crucial.
Guan Huang currently has only data on e-commerce, takeaway, and travel, and there is still a lot worse about personal reading preferences and entertainment choices.
Buying a news company is just the right thing to make up for.
"The scale does not need to be too large, the accumulation does not need to be too much, and even the employees can be ...... with more than three years of experience."
Xia Qixi listened carefully to the other party's request.
Even though I don't know the purpose, I still have to take it to heart out of trust in men.
"If I understand correctly, any company meets your requirements, you don't need senior reporters, editors, anything."
Guan Huang nodded, "Yes, that's what it means, as long as you have news thinking, you don't need too good talents." ”
Xia Qixi was puzzled, "Is it meaningful to acquire such a company?" ”
Guan Huang explained, "The main thing is to verify some algorithms, and Yu Yue has developed a robot journalism, which we will use ourselves." ”
When Xia Qixi heard this, he said with a smile, "I thought she was an old hen who couldn't lay eggs, but finally there was movement." ”
Millions of dollars are invested every month, but no response is heard.
is still a female scientist, extremely cold.
Xia Qixi was naturally dissatisfied.
Guan Huang pinched her buttocks, "What are you talking about." ”
Xia Qixi was not happy, "Just to verify her results, she is going to buy a company, if it spreads, what do investors think?" I think, don't call you Guan Huang, call yourself a pervert. ”
Guan Huang was speechless, this was really a disaster, "Look at what you said, am I that kind of person?" ”
"Hmm", Xia Qixi nodded.
Guan Huang made a gesture to take off his pants, which frightened the other party into discoloration, and hurriedly raised his hand to surrender.
Guan Huang explained, "You must know that artificial intelligence is the big trend of the future, and we are too late to enter the market now. Forbes magazine began using automated copywriting programs to write news in 11 years, and the Associated Press has been using automation to write company financial statements since July. In milliseconds, the software can write a complete Associated Press-style report. ”
Xia Qixi raised his eyebrows, "That's it?" Artificial intelligence? ”
Guan Huang is very patient, "This is just an entry point, to put it simply, it is to use algorithms to process the collected data, so as to automatically generate news reports." ”
Xia Qixi was skeptical.
Guan Huang continued, "This is also a talent that I don't need too much professionalism, after all, it is a new thing, groping forward, and I don't think about profitability in the short term." ”
"Okay, you have the final say, but I suggest cutting with Superman, and you can invest some money yourself."
Guan Huang was helpless, he only played with a few women, and he left such a bad reputation, and there are definitely people who continue to slander him behind his back.
"Okay, just use the money in the fund, it's really troublesome."
Xia Qixi was a little embarrassed, "It's not that you can start a new business, you also know the recent financing situation, if this kind of thing spreads, it will only lower everyone's expectations of Superman, so it's better to bear with it first and wait until the situation improves." ”
Guan Huang waved his hand, "This group of bastards who see the wind and rudder will kneel down and beg me sooner or later." ”
Although these words are a bit like angry words, they come out of a man's mouth with a domineering attitude.
Especially here in Xia Qixi.
Blind confidence.
Just as he was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Yu Yue walked in.
Guan Huang has always treated technicians preferentially, and senior executives still need to be reported by Bai Xiaoya, and Zuo Fan often knocks on the door directly.
There are even "Eighteen Arhats" who directly push the door in, imported from Silicon Valley, follow the previous work habits, and some have poor hierarchical concepts, and often make jokes.
Guan Huang didn't mind this, and he also restrained a lot of office behavior.
After all, it's still a face.
If some misdeeds are discovered by subordinates, it will be a big blow to the company's image and personal reputation.
Xia Qixi secretly rolled his eyes, "I'll go first." ”
After saying that, he left directly.
Yu Yue didn't feel offended, or didn't realize this kind of problem.
"Guan Guan, when will you be ready over there?"
Guan Huang beckoned her to sit down, "This week." ”
Yu Yue thought for a while, "Then let's take this opportunity to take a vacation and take a rest." ”
Guan Huang thought of the other party's work rhythm, and couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't you rent a cruise ship and go to the sea for a week?" ”
"Are you going?"
Guan Huang was a little sorry, "I'm afraid I won't be able to go, I can't leave here." ”
Yu Yue was a little disappointed, "What's the point of that." ”
Guan Huang rubbed her hair, "You take Shanshan with you and go out to relax." ”
Yu Yue shook her head and shook Guan Huang's hand away, "I want to think about it, by the way, why hasn't our laboratory's application plan been approved yet?" ”
Guan Huang: "This, we have to make accounts at the end of the year, and the budget in all aspects will start to tighten, and it will be fine next month." ”
Yu Yue didn't think too much, "Okay, the landing direction you said last time, we think it is feasible after thinking about it, and after the news robot is done, we will start to make a Go robot." ”
Guan Huang was a little excited when he heard this, "Yes, the research of artificial intelligence cannot be achieved overnight, and there can be no big breakthrough in the short term. ”
The reason why I chose Go is because it is both topical and complex enough.
At the same time, it's simple enough for a computer program.
"You're right."
"Our long-term goal is to develop a general artificial intelligence, but what is the short-term goal? News bots? Go robots? Diagnosing bots? No one knows where the breakthrough is, so they can only keep trying. ”
Yu Yue nodded, "I know that the ultimate goal is to use the structure of artificial intelligence general computing to defeat human players and enterprises in related fields in every field. ”
Guan Huang slapped his thigh, "That's what it means, I hope you can understand that our purpose is not just to make one or two programs like playing Go." ”
Yu Yue glanced at him, "Next time you pat your own legs, your hands are so strong." ”
"Is it red?"
Guan Huang lifted his skirt to take a look, but was slapped away by Yu Yue, "Don't take advantage of me." ”
Because the two of them were used to joking, she didn't think too much about it.
Guan Huang hurriedly returned to the topic, "I hope that you can develop a Go robot that defeats the world's top players next year." ”
"Time is a bit tight."
Guan Huang: "There is pressure to be motivated, the algorithms are universal, we have accumulated more than a year, brought together world-class talents, and we are also qualified to challenge new milestones, and use Go as a stepping stone, which is just right." ”
"I'll try."
