Reborn multinational giant

What kind of technology is the technology that profoundly changes and subverts the era?

From the steam engine, electricity, and computer, which promoted the progress of human civilization in modern times, successively triggered the three industrial revolutions, to the dazzling great inventions in the history of human civilization, compass, paper, gunpowder, light bulbs, airplanes, rockets, the Internet, and mobile phones.

The emergence of every invention has greatly changed people's lifestyles. Such a technology can be regarded as a technology that profoundly changes and subverts the times!

However, this kind of technology, just like the diamond in the history of human civilization, is extremely precious and extremely difficult to be born. In ancient times, this kind of technology may have been born for hundreds of years.

After entering modern times, the history of human civilization has entered an unprecedented period of explosion. Various technologies have changed with each passing day. For several hundred years, no ancients can imagine life today.

In the same way, in the next three hundred years, what life will be like in the future, the "ancients" now can only watch the leopard and think about it.

"Every time I imagine the future life, I will be full of expectations. If I can give me a chance to live in three hundred years, I will definitely not hesitate to exchange all the wealth I have now!" Fang Zhe's opening remarks It caused laughter and boos from many developers in the audience.

"Use all the wealth you have now? Don't you think Fang's richest man is too much money?" Many developers think that Fang Zhe is joking. Few people believe that Fang Zhe is really willing to trade hundreds of billions of dollars for his wealth. Opportunity to live three hundred years later.

Only Fang Zhe knew in his heart that if there was a chance, he was really willing to change. After the wealth reached a certain level, it was just a string of numbers, and the chance of living in the future, like his rebirth, was unique.

To put it shortly, Fang Zhe led the developers on the scene to review the great inventions in the history of mankind over the past thousands of years, and began to slowly lead the topic to today, now, and in the future. Several things to do, AI (artificial intelligence), virtual reality, 5G, Internet of Things.

When these huge words appeared on the big screen behind Fang Zhe, the developers on the scene held their breath, or in other words, were silent!

If there is a practical technology for developers like WeChat applets on the big screen, it may cause many developers to cheer and talk, but the four words full of futuristic and technological sense appearing on the big screen now make them feel Somewhat remote and empty.

AI, the term artificial intelligence is nothing new today. From movies to the general public, everyone can say a little bit about artificial intelligence.

There is no doubt that the world has been looking forward to artificial intelligence for a long time, but the reality is that artificial intelligence in the field of science and technology is like a monument that will never be surpassed. Although it has been developed for decades, its progress has been slow, even the most advanced The so-called artificial intelligence researched in the science laboratory has an IQ no better than a 5-year-old child.

How can such intelligence be called artificial intelligence?Even many scientists assert that humans will never be able to create real artificial intelligence, because humans still don’t understand themselves!

What do humans use to make artificial intelligence, and what methods are used to make artificial intelligence?In addition to the bottleneck in technology and direction, artificial intelligence is too broad and involves complex and huge disciplines, and it also makes many people feel unable to start. Many large companies have invested huge sums of money for decades. Many scientists have worked hard for a lifetime without any gains or gains. Results.

Now Huizhong is annoyingly announcing its entry into the field of artificial intelligence. Has it really found a feasible way, or has it burned too much, and the money raised from listing is too much, I don’t know where to spend it?

90% of the developers at the scene think it is the latter, because they all feel that Huizhong's investment in these areas will only be a waste of water like other large companies!

"This is the quietest moment for the audience since the opening!" Fang Zhe said jokingly.

"I know that many viewers may be thinking about AI, virtual reality, 5G, the Internet of Things, and even 4G networks in China have not been commercialized yet. You talked to us about 5G. Is it a bit too far? The term "tall" sounds pretty bluffing, but what does it have to do with us and most ordinary developers?" Fang Zhe asked himself, expressing the voice of many developers on the scene.

But since Fang Zhe dared to ask that, he naturally had an answer long ago.

"For a long time, many ordinary developers have regarded AI as a scourge, thinking that they are not scientists, doctoral students, and graduates of prestigious universities. They dare not even think that they can learn and research AI technology.

But what I want to tell you now is that AI is not as tall as you think. The entire AI technology system can be seen as a huge pyramid. At the top of the pyramid, scientists all over the world have been working diligently to conquer the human emotions. , Wisdom, advanced artificial intelligence even smarter than humans.

At the bottom of the pyramid is what we see today, an increasingly intelligent and intelligent life.

The AI ​​in our imagination is not achieved overnight, but is accumulated by countless tiny intelligences, and qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes, just like every great invention in the past, standing on the shoulders of giants!

You came home from get off work one day and found a way closer than usual. Since then, you have started to take shortcuts. This is AI. Today, you refactored the code you wrote before and implemented it with simpler and more efficient algorithms. It is also AI.

AI is not just the tall things in science fiction films, but actually happening around us. A more efficient, simpler and faster solution is to better optimize and use social resources!"

Fang Zhe’s insights on AI aroused the thinking of many viewers who watched live and live broadcasts. At the same time, it also refreshed their understanding and concepts of AI. The public has always been influenced by science fiction movies and many science fictions. I think that only computers or robots that are as smart as people in movies can be regarded as real AI.

In fact, that is already a mature stage of AI. Prior to this, speech recognition, image recognition and even human psychology were all areas of AI research. Therefore, in previous lives, major Internet companies were competing for the accuracy of their voice recognition. At the same time, Google is teaching its own robots to play Go and recognize cats. These weird and sneer behaviors in the eyes of the general public are all contributing to the AI ​​technology system and contributing to the full maturity of AI technology.

Fang Zhe took the opportunity of the developer conference to talk about this. On the one hand, he conveys Huizhong’s future strategy. On the other hand, he hopes to use this opportunity to convey his attitude and views on AI to developers and even many ordinary people. , Let everyone have a new understanding of AI, abandon the old-fashioned idea that only scientists can study AI technology, let more people study AI, and promote the development and progress of AI technology faster.

Similarly, virtual reality, 5G, and the Internet of Things are the same. These technologies are not just tall and distant holes. Each of their technologies is developed based on the present and giants formed based on the huge technological system of the past. The promotion also requires the support and participation of more people.

Therefore, when Fang Zhe re-baptized the developers and the audience watching the live broadcast in his mind, he gently pressed the remote control in his hand, and the big screen behind him switched to the next PPT.

100 billion!

On the big screen, there are only 4 numbers and one hundred million words, a big exclamation mark for diplomacy!

The developers on the scene exclaimed again, my god, this is not the money Huizhong intends to invest in these fields!Ten hundred thousand, there is a hundred million behind!

"In the next three years, Huizhong will invest 100 billion yuan in these four areas!" Fang Zhe smiled and said in a flat tone.
