Zhang Chao looked at Gu Hong and said, "Actually, I've been building a university recently!" There is a shortage of teachers. ”

"If I can really make a bionic robot with [strong artificial intelligence], would you be willing to teach at my university with me?"

Gu Hong joked: "Dr. Zhang is really a great benevolent person, not only developed the [cancer cure], but also established a school to spread wisdom." Do you want to be a Buddha not only for all families, but also for a saint? ”

Zhang Chao said with a smile: "You have the right to think that I want to be a saint, but a saint also needs disciples to spread culture." ”

"Okay! If Dr. Zhang can name the production method of [Strong Artificial Intelligence], I will not only teach at your university for free, but also recognize you as a teacher myself, how about it? Gu Hong said with a sneer.

Zhang Chao saw that Gu Hong was fooled and said: "Actually, since you can build such a realistic [weak artificial intelligence] robot, you must also know it." ”

"Achieving [strong AI] is inseparable from the collaboration of neurophysiology, cognitive neuroscience, cognitive psychology, mathematics and computer science."

Gu Hong touched the radioactive particle machine and said, "What? What does Dr. Zhang know about all of these? ”

"Oh! That's right? You are a top medical student, and you should not be bad at neurophysiology, cognitive neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and mathematics. ”

"But computer science alone has nearly 20 branches of discipline."

"If you want to be proficient in one branch, you need a Ph.D. degree. I started learning computer science at the age of 8 and it has taken me more than 20 years to become proficient in computer science today. ”

"Could it be that Dr. Zhang is a genius and understands all disciplines?"

Gu Hong shook his head, not believing that Zhang Chao would be so demonic.

Zhang Chao looked at Gu Hong's appearance, and his heart was even more worried.

If you only come up with one more science and technology in its ultimate form, it will make people suspicious.

If all the disciplines were taken out, the people of Blue Mercury would definitely think that he was an alien.

"Ahem...... Zhang Chao cleared his throat and said, "It is indeed very difficult to master computer science. But to be honest, computer science has also been a hobby since I was a child. ”

"So the computer science you mentioned, I've been studying it since I was a child, but I just studied medicine by mistake in college."

"But computer science is my hobby, and I've always studied it."

Zhang Chao said the excuse he had thought of in advance.

"Oh? So that's the case? Gu Hong finally got serious.

He said: "Since it is a hobby, Dr. Zhang can really provide me with some ideas. Say it! ”

Zhang Chao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said secretly: "He finally believed in himself." ”

"In fact, I think that if you want to achieve [strong artificial intelligence], you can't do without two technical lines."

"The first is the analytic cognition and empirical search of true intelligence; The second is the construction of mathematics-based engineering for artificial intelligence. ”

Gu Hong nodded, this was also his opinion.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Chao actually coincided with his thoughts.

It was only here that he looked interested.

Zhang Chao continued, "Because I have studied the theory of the nervous system, I believe that an in-depth understanding of the nervous system can correctly point the way forward for computer science and provide a source of inspiration for modeling. ”

"The use of computer engineering to build an artificial nervous system can also test various nervous system hypotheses, and at the same time provide inspiration for specific functional models for cognitive neuroscience."

"Ideally, the development of AI would be more efficient if there was a comprehensive college covering these disciplines to coordinate and promote exchanges and cooperation."

Gu Hong said with a worried eye: "But in reality, at least two difficulties will limit the implementation of this methodology. ”

"One is that there is a big difference between neurology and psychology and mathematics and computer science, and there are bound to be many discomforts when working together."

"Second, it is relatively difficult to make progress in neuroscience and psychology, and it does not only depend on the development of mathematics and computer science."

"It will also be highly dependent on the technological progress of various testing equipment and a large number of biological experiments."

Zhang Chao said confidently: "You can rest assured that the relevant experimental data is verifiable." ”

"The old professors in our pharmaceutical company have studied this aspect. I've already compiled it. ”

Zhang Chao continued: "In my opinion, the operation of everything in the world has a specific operation law. The same goes for artificial intelligence. ”

"The reason why intelligence can help organisms survive and reproduce is that it can correctly reflect the objective world to a certain extent, and it is a flat subjective mirror of the objective world."

"Human intelligence, as the pinnacle of earth's intelligence, can reflect many aspects of the objective world in a very three-dimensional way, and can predict possible changes in the objective world through reasoning and deduction."

"So! I'm thinking, [strong AI] can actually just simulate a baby that has fallen to the ground. ”

To enable the baby to "understand" the world is to rely on the set of concepts that form in his mind with a network of connections. ”

Every act of "understanding" may be a process by which a concept and its associated concepts are activated. ”

"And all we have to do is speed up the process."

Gu Hong frowned and thought: "Your idea has actually been thought about by many computer experts, but it is already very difficult to simulate a baby, not to mention that the baby needs to accelerate learning?" ”

"IMHO! With today's chips and computer languages, it's too difficult to get to where you envision. ”

Zhang Chao shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not difficult, as long as you build a world model that can be verified in a white box, and have the ability to use the model to reason about evolution and predict its changes." ”

"After all, numbers and language are only carriers, and if they only carry uncontrollable coding rather than the orderly composition of the world, it is estimated that it will be difficult to achieve the realm of "understanding". ”

Gu Hong finally showed a surprised expression when he heard this, and said, "This idea is very interesting. Just like people, what kind of world they come into contact with, what kind of cognition they will have. ”

"But after all, this is in the theoretical stage, if you can come up with the shape of this baby and the world model of the white box, I will convince you!"

Zhang Chao smiled mysteriously and said, "Then let's talk about it, you have to be willing to lose the bet when the time comes!" ”

Gu Hong chuckled lightly and said, "What you said today really opened my mind to [strong artificial intelligence], but it is not so easy to come up with the real thing." I'm waiting for you, and naturally you'll keep your promise. ”

"Then it's decided!" Zhang Chao directly pushed the radioactive particle machine and walked out.

Gu Hong hurried to help, no matter whether Zhang Chao could come up with the physical object or not.

His remarks today were enough to impress Gu Hong.

-------------------------------------

Although the sun is setting, there are no old trees and dead vines.

But the sides of the road do look a little deserted.

"Xiao Zhang, thank you this time, I actually forgot that Beijing University was going to Hebei Province for an inspection this time, I obviously remember it was yesterday!"

Zhang Chao smiled and said, "It's okay, it's only nearly a 3-hour drive!" If you hadn't helped us meet Gu Hong, I wouldn't have been able to borrow a radioactive particle machine. ”

Wang Siyu pouted and said, "Fortunately, I drove an off-road vehicle!" Otherwise, you won't be able to fit in the trunk of that machine. ”

and Zhang Chao, a doctoral graduate, doesn't even have a driver's license, how can she feel a little unbelievable.

But she didn't dare to say this.

She looked out the window and said, "Is it sowing season here?" Why haven't the seedlings come out? ”

"It's supposed to be a bit dry this year, right?" Sun Shaoyao said casually.

When the words fell, she still looked at Zhang Chao with some surprise and said, "Xiao Zhang! You are very powerful, I feel that after Gu Hong and you came out of his mechanical room, his attitude towards you has changed a lot. ”

"It's okay! Maybe Gu Hong will also go to university to become a teacher in the future? When the time comes, you will be together? Zhang Chao laughed.

Sun Shaoyao didn't care, and said with a smile: "That's a good feeling!" By the way, why is there no water in your car? ”

"Oooh! Forgot to buy it. There is a village in front of Wang Siyu, you go to the entrance of the village and stop to see if there is a commissary. Zhang Chao commanded.

"Got it!"

Wang Siyu's driving skills are not bad, and he turned smoothly and drove towards the entrance of the village.

"Wait! Wang Siyu! Did someone jump into the river there? Sun Shaoyao suddenly shouted.

"Stop!"

Zhang Chao also saw that there seemed to be a person standing outside a fish pond next to him, and he jumped into the fish pond with a puff just now and saw no trace.
