Digital Kingdom

#443-Chapter 443

"I knew that you must have big moves",

In the presidential suite of Sassoon, Qiu Shengming said with a smile, he and Zhao Ziming had a good personal relationship, and he went to visit as soon as the meeting was over.

Since the first meeting, he knew that Zhao Ziming would not be silent for too long. Sure enough, he would soon launch such a huge action to directly destroy an industry.

This kind of handwriting, this kind of momentum is worthy of artificial intelligence that wants to change society.

"I need your support",

Zhao Ziming opened a bottle of red wine, poured a little, and handed it to Qiu Shengming, and said,

"You know, I very much agree with Dean Allen's view that the threat of artificial intelligence to people is not Skynet, but the elimination of the middle class. Although its future potential is huge, the current focus is not whether artificial intelligence can destroy Human beings, and more, will they deprive their immediate jobs? When artificial intelligence eliminates jobs in large numbers, how to make the society transition smoothly."

Qiu Shengming said immediately,

"So, I think that a series of common principles are indeed needed to constrain the application of artificial intelligence in the future."

Although he is a Singaporean, he talked privately and didn't care much, and straightforwardly stated that he was on the side of the digital group.

Allen is the co-founder of Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Microsoft. He specializes in artificial intelligence research and has a good reputation in the industry.

His views coincide with Zhao Ziming, but the original intentions of the two are different. Allen believes that the existing artificial intelligence is not up to the level of Skynet, while Zhao Ziming hides some thoughts.

"Yeah," Zhao Ziming smiled and touched him with a toast, and said,

"Some principles need to be established and followed by everyone, especially companies."

He is very satisfied with Qiu Shengming's attitude. Although Singapore's international influence is not large, it is okay in the Chinese circle. With his support, it can save a lot of things.

"Tomorrow's meeting, everyone should officially show their position." Qiu Shengming took a sip of red wine, meaning something.

Today, Zhao Ziming expressed his opinions on artificial intelligence, and then issued a proposal, so tomorrow will be a battle.

Zhao Ziming nodded when he heard this.

If the first day is a prelude, then tomorrow is the key.

There will be a battle of words and interests.

After all, in addition to behind-the-scenes transactions, external performance is also very important.

If you cannot rely on language to unify the consensus, but only rely on the exchange of benefits to achieve the goal, it would be a failure.

If you can convince everyone at the meeting tomorrow, you can say that you have already succeeded in half.

This is not an exaggeration, just judging from the schedule, tomorrow's series of speeches will be full of big names.

Including YannLeCun (Chief Scientist of Facebook), RayKurzweil (The controversial book "Singularity Theory", Chief Future Scientist of Google), AndrewMcAfee (famous professor at MIT, author of "Race with Machines" and "The Second Machine Age").

The formulation of policies requires the endorsement of experts, and the impact of these people should not be underestimated.

After exchanging opinions, the relationship became closer.

"Aming, there is a question that is not convenient for you to ask?" Qiu Shengming pondered for a moment, then said.

"Between you and me, what are you polite?" Zhao Ziming replied with a smile.

"I heard that your newly invested "Sky Eye" project works well," Qiu Shengming said.

"Yes, do you mean this?",

Zhao Ziming immediately understood the other party's suggestion, and directly spoke out.

As one of the countries with the most detailed monitoring in the world, Singapore has always advocated the construction of a "Virtual Singapore".

The "Smart Nation" (SmartNation) plan proposed by the Prime Minister of the New Kingdom last year deployed an unknown number of cameras and sensors throughout the country.

Closely monitor public places, from cleanliness, crowd density, to the close actions of each licensed vehicle, and strive to achieve digital governance.

Therefore, it may be the most sensitive country to the "Sky Eye" system.

Qiu Shengming nodded and said,

"If the transfer of sensitive technology is not involved, we intend to introduce a complete system."

"No sensitive technology in principle",

Zhao Ziming smiled.

Immediately aware of the strategic significance of this, the "Sky Eye" engineering sensitive technology naturally exists, and there are not many.

But if you can use this to enter the Singapore city system, everything is worth it.

"The source code must be open," Qiu Shengming said a little embarrassed.

"this is necessary",

Without thinking about it, Zhao Ziming also knows where the bottom line of the new country lies. The adoption of Chinese technology will inevitably face huge political pressure in the new country, and open source code is a prerequisite.

When it comes to national security, one must be cautious.

However, the technological gap is not understandable by the old thinking, and open source is not the most important thing for "Sky Eye".

On the study of artificial intelligence, no one on this planet can surpass him.

"Okay, I will report to Premier Li later. I will communicate with you after I have determined the intention. The price will never disappoint you."

Qiu Shengming got the affirmative answer, put the biggest stone in his heart, and promised.

Open source code is almost equivalent to making the technology public. He also took the attitude of giving it a try, but Zhao Ziming did not expect that he would really agree.

In this case, it can only be compensated in money. Qiu Shengming values ​​his friendship with Zhao Ziming.

The "Smart Nation" plan was implemented, and the Prime Minister of the Communist Party of China promoted the entire bureaucracy of the new country. Qiu Shengming's move was also broken.

If Zhao Ziming refused, it would be simpler. If he did not refuse, his fate would be tied to Zhao Ziming.

After all, to promote the "Sky Eye" project to settle in Singapore, the opposition forces are not unforgiving, especially China's technology export, which is particularly shocking for a pro-American country.

Qiu Shengming can be regarded as a surprise attack. On the one hand, the quality of the "Sky Eye" far exceeds the model designed by Dassault Systèmes, and on the other hand, he is willing to open source code.

Qiu Shengming has been paying attention since the "Sky Eye" system was officially put into operation. He paid much attention to Zhao Ziming, which far exceeded Zhao Ziming's imagination.

With the success of the "Sky Eye" system of the summit, Qiu Shengming couldn't hold back his thoughts and tried to promote the export of technology and the implementation of the project.

If Zhao Ziming disagrees with the open source code, nothing will be mentioned. If yes, proceed to the next step.

"Okay," Zhao Ziming nodded.

Qiu Shengming's ideas have opened his mind. Apart from the new country, the overseas market is very large, and he can work hard on this.

At that time, it will not be like Shanghai making a profit this time at a loss. If you don't make a lot of money from the above, the partners will also be worried, lest they stay behind.

However, these things will naturally be discussed by the people below, and only one general principle can be determined.
