Is artificial intelligence a Pandora's box?

In the face of the rise of intelligence, many people are worried and uneasy, which is not new for a long time. What's more, human beings, who even maintain their own race's suspicion and defense, are living creatures.

After all, people with feelings and prejudices will do evil, and computers that rely solely on rational calculations seem to do so easily.

This makes many people pessimistic about the development of artificial intelligence.

Of course, artificial intelligence is still in the stage of theory and preliminary development, and people are only concerned about various kinds of speculation. But one day, human found that artificial intelligence is too "intelligent", and some aspects are almost beyond human understanding.

Andy believes that human concerns about AI will reach a new height.

This kind of time will not be too long. After all, the world is actively investing in the field of AI, and the field of artificial intelligence is bound to usher in a big explosion.

However, this outbreak period is just benefited from the development of "machine learning".

Computer programs with powerful computing power can automatically mine and analyze a large number of data, and learn various behavior patterns.

Input and output are no longer controlled by several variables given by human, but let the machine analyze features and determine variable weight in a large number of data...

If it is explained in a simpler and straightforward language, for example, it involves the most popular field of artificial intelligence, deep learning, which is jokingly called "modern alchemy" by the insiders in the whole field of artificial intelligence.

Input all kinds of data to train intelligent programs, and "refine" a pile of things that we don't know why it will become...

The neural network for data processing is usually composed of dozens or hundreds of neurons, which are then organized in a logical structure with several layers. The operation process is very complicated. The intelligent program sets its own algorithm and weight, but why it outputs a decision in the end is not fully understood by the human as a developer to tell the truth.

Will humans trust an "incomprehensible" decision-maker?

The answer is yes.

When Andy decided to invest in the development of AI, he had reached a consensus with Edward, the technology bull, and had certain restrictions and restrictions on it, although it was still a few galaxies away from that kind of high AI.

But since we have the seeds of doubt and the expectation of application results, we must have restrictions and be cautious... This is human!

Artificial intelligence is not so much the ability of thinking as the reflection and understanding of existing data in the human world. Will machines inherit the prejudices, impermanence and greed that humans already have?

This is perhaps the biggest concern of mankind!

The so-called "intelligent mining" of AI to user data is actually easy to walk on the edge of compliance but against fairness and morality.

For example, in the simplest case, e-commerce can conduct targeted and precise price discrimination against a person based on the accumulation of consumption habits and consumption ability data and the analysis and calculation of big data.

If you buy the same product, the users who use the crazy cell phone are likely to pay more than the users who use the 800 yuan Android phone, because they are analyzed by big data and tend to be price insensitive people...

(it's not a joke. If you are interested, you can find some e-commerce websites and try changing your mobile phone.)

In a word, there is no concept of "human" or "user" in the eyes of AI aiming at business interests, and all of them are available data.

With the help of big data and artificial intelligence, we can maximize capital by monitoring everyone and extracting information.

That's why the AI industry as a whole is ambivalent about all things like data collection.

After all, AI, as one of the hottest and fastest businesses in the future, involves too much and too tempting interest cake.

What's more, as Andy thinks, the current technology is far from the real artificial intelligence, and has little impact on social ethics. The so-called AI is just to free human from the tedious repetitive work.

After that, Andy took Ivana to the security center, met Hercule, and learned about the operation and R & D Progress of xiayundun.

At this time, yundun has started to provide services to the outside world and also started to make profits. In order to seize the market, Andy has moved the way of China, and launched a free and simple download version with advertising, and a full personal version and enterprise version for charging.

In addition to seizing the market, the free version mainly shoulders the role of receipt data. After all, the development of yundun is inseparable from a large number of virus databases, which are nothing in the eyes of individuals, but it is a huge wealth for enterprises.

One day, the happiest person is Ivana. As the hostess, accompanied by Andy, she toured the most curious and mysterious part of all assets before her.

On the way back to the mansion by helicopter, Andy received a call from his grandfather Smith, who told Andy that the Federal Reserve was about to launch a series of major measures to adjust the focus of policy.While keeping the federal funds rate at an all-time low, with a zero to 0.25% range unchanged, trillions of dollars were used to buy treasury bonds and mortgage-related bonds.

Among them, the purchase of real estate mortgage bonds and institutional bonds totaled $850 billion, and the purchase of long-term treasury bonds totaled $300 billion in the next six months to unfreeze the credit market, inject liquidity and stimulate economic recovery.

According to the Federal Reserve Act of the United States, during the economic crisis, the Federal Reserve has the power to issue unlimited money and make loans to anyone without the approval of Congress.

The Fed's lending program has increased the size of its assets from $900 billion to $1.8 trillion. The "Big Bang" of this economic stimulus is absolutely unprecedented and can be called crazy.

"They are crazy!" Although

had expected, the printing money of this scale also made Andy have little strength to make complaints about it.

"There is no way to do this. At the moment when there is no room to cut interest rates, the Federal Reserve can only give full play to the function of" money printing machine "to inject liquidity into the market to stimulate economic recovery.

Loss of jobs, shrinking stock and house prices, and tight credit are affecting consumer sentiment and spending. Weak sales prospects and difficulty in obtaining credit funds have led to companies cutting inventory and fixed investment, and the economy of our trading partners has fallen into recession, which has led to a sharp drop in our exports. These factors force the Federal Reserve to use all means to promote economic growth. "

Hearing his grandfather's explanation, Andy shakes his head and sighs helplessly. To be honest, there is really no other good way. Maybe only by opening the gate and releasing the water, can the poor pull the economy out of the downward vortex.

"Ha ha, at least this news will give the stock market more impetus to rebound and rise..."

"Well, you know, nothing else, son, you can be the richest man in the world. Grandpa is really happy and proud of you."

Andy smiled and hung up the old Smith's phone. Under Ivana's eyes, he took his cell phone and called out again.

"Increase the limit and short the US dollar!"

His grandfather's old Smith's call is undoubtedly to inform Andy of the news and let him prepare ahead of time, and Andy's think tank has been shorting US dollars for a long time. Now the news is confirmed, it is natural to increase the amount.

After notifying alvette and hanging up, Andy smiles and says to Ivana, "gold is about to soar!"

Ivana blinked a pair of big eyes, the corner of her mouth turned up, and she said with a sweet smile: "the money printing machine has full power and can make dollars quickly. Only gold can keep its value! In this way, the recovery of real estate may not wait too long. "

"The Fed is actually devaluing the dollar, and the worry is that central banks around the world are competing for devaluation," Andy said with a sigh
