The term artificial intelligence has already appeared in the mouth of Turing, the father of computers, thirty years ago. However, everyone, including computer experts, did not know how artificial intelligence can be realized, but Liu Lang's words were like a wake-up call.
They, yes, when a computer is powerful enough to program its own algorithms, it's hard to say what state this computer will be in.
"Is that like the intelligent robots in The Terminator? They have the potential to end humanity!"
Gordon Moore, who had been silent all this time, said slowly.
Compared with young people in their thirties such as Gates and Jobs, Gordon Moore is already in his fifties, only a few years younger than Wan An. His status in the American computer industry is very high, six years old.
"Fairchild Semiconductor Company" was created in the 1900s, and this company is located in Silicon Valley. No, it was precisely because of this company that the later Silicon Valley came into being.
This company was once the largest, most innovative and exciting semiconductor manufacturer in the world. It laid a solid foundation for the growth of Silicon Valley. More importantly, this company also gave birth to Silicon Valley and the entire United States.
With thousands of technical and management talents, it is the "West Point Military Academy" of the electronics and computer industry, and a veritable "cradle of talent" where batches of elite talents come out and start businesses.
Of course, due to various reasons, the company's eight founders left respectively, but the spirit of innovation and breakthrough has always continued in this company.
In the early 1980s, someone once calculated that half of the approximately 70 semiconductor companies in Silicon Valley were direct or indirect descendants of Fairchild Corporation. Working at Fairchild Corporation was a way to enter the semiconductor industry spread throughout Silicon Valley. In the 1970s,
At a semiconductor engineer conference held in Silicon Valley, among the more than 400 attendees, less than 24 had never worked for Fairchild. In this sense, it is not fair to say that Fairchild Semiconductor is the "cradle of talent in Silicon Valley."
Too much.
Gordon Moore's words made others whisper. The movie "Terminator" was released three years ago and caused a great sensation. The plot of the movie is very imaginative, and the most memorable one is the character from
A robot that travels through modern times in the future has the same appearance as a human being. Even if you stand next to you, you can't tell it apart. And it was created by a future artificial intelligence super system called "Skynet". This "Skynet"
It was created by humans, but its purpose is to destroy humans.
The movie is very enjoyable, but it also caused many experts to think deeply.
However, after careful consideration, no one thought it would happen, at least not in their own generation, but Liu Lang obviously didn't think so.
"Mr. Moore, I know that your Intel company is a leader in the chip industry. I have often thought about your question. The birth of artificial intelligence is inevitable and its power is unquestionable. But is it good?
Is it bad? Actually, I don’t know.
There is a Skynet system in Mr. Cameron's movie "Terminator", which has the idea of destroying mankind. Indeed, in a world where electronic devices are everywhere, if the control system is not under the control of humans, this is indeed
It is very scary, but after all, the Skynet system in this movie is based on our human understanding of artificial intelligence, and it has limitations.
I might as well raise two questions for everyone to think about. First, does artificial intelligence have the same self-awareness as humans? If so, is it the same as us humans? If so, how will they treat humans? Will they treat humans kindly? Or eliminate them?
? Or cooperation?
If we can't figure out these problems, then we can't say we understand artificial intelligence... Of course, these are my own ideas, which are still a bit far away for this era, but I believe that everyone here can do it as long as they exercise well.
I hope to see this era come!"
What exactly is artificial intelligence? Is it a quantum computer that simply calculates infinite powerful algorithms? Or does it have the same consciousness as humans? No one will know this thirty years later. Even Liu Lang, a genius, could not imagine it. The only thing he is sure of is,
In his lifetime, we can see the emergence of real artificial intelligence, which should be a moment worth looking forward to.
Liu Lang's words caused several computer experts to ponder. They had never thought about this problem. On the surface, it seemed to be some metaphysical thinking, but it was very logical. Human beings always use their own ideas to define some things they do not understand.
Things, and the result is exactly wrong. As for artificial intelligence, even if it has consciousness, will it be like humans? Not necessarily. At least humans are carbon-based organisms, and the other side is silicon-based organisms. Life
The form is different. Using human thinking to judge a non-human creature is a fallacy in itself.
Of course, the only people present who could barely understand Liu Lang's explanation were Jobs, Gates, Moore, and Wan An. Even in the world, there would not be more than a hundred people who could understand Liu Lang. After all, there was a huge gap between the two sides.
With the changes of the times for thirty years, Liu Lang is a god-level existence in terms of knowledge in this era.
Moore and Gates looked at each other, and both of them saw shock in each other's eyes. Maybe Liu Lang's prediction was not completely correct, but he gave a possibility, which is still very logical.
Then it is possible that it will come true, which is amazing. If everything Liu Lang predicted comes true twenty years later, then he will be a great scientist. According to this logic, if someone now follows the instructions in "Digital Survival"
If we lay out the mentioned industries, we may become the pioneers of the times in the future.
The founder of the era? If you think about it carefully, it seems that he has a shadow in this era.
To Steve Jobs and other elites, this book seems to be full of wild imagination on the surface, but if you think about it carefully, every item in the book has its implications in this era, because their own careers are included in it.
Okay, what a profound insight Liu Lang must have to be able to do this!
Why would several world-famous bosses in the future come here to hold a press conference for a hit book? Even though Liu Lang is prospering in the entertainment industry, the so-called stars are not at all in the eyes of them.
There is no value. Even if Michael Jackson invites them, they may not come. But this book is indeed wonderful. Many of the concepts coincide with them, and it goes one step further. No, it should be many steps deeper.
They saw a future world of infinite longing.
And in the process of communicating with Liu Lang, they had a deeper understanding. This Liu Lang was simply a "god man"! Even they found the things he talked about unbelievable. It was precisely the things that were unimaginable and beyond human imagination that made them understand
They were so excited that this time it was not in vain.
Several big figures who will be powerful in the future came to the scene to accept Liu Lang's "guidance". Even if "Digital Survival" "hit the market", Liu Lang felt that it was very worthwhile.
