Chinanews.com, February 20th (Chinanews Finance and Economics reporter Wu Tao) ChatGPT, which has exploded out of the circle, continues to attract attention. Some people resonate with it and work more efficiently; Harm; more people are curious, how will it penetrate our lives?

  With these questions in mind, recently, the reporter interviewed Shen Yang, a professor at the School of Journalism at Tsinghua University and director of the Metaverse Culture Laboratory, to see how he views ChatGPT.

ChatGPT penetrates multiple fields, and these life scenes may be the first to land

  It is understood that there are many AI applications on the market before, which can talk, sing, write, and even provide some basic services such as "asking directions". What is the difference between ChatGPT and these artificial intelligences?

  Shen Yang said that ChatGPT is different from the original artificial intelligence. For example, it can understand the depth of a question through continuous questioning, and some answers to exploration. This is its direct function. Can have a certain logical connection in multiple rounds of dialogue."

  "A notable function of ChatGPT now is to write articles or provide article structure. In the future, a large number of papers that students are required to write when they graduate from college or undergraduate may be automatically generated by artificial intelligence." Shen Yang said that at present, ChatGPT is quite Undergraduate level above average in 211 colleges and universities.

  In addition, Shen Yang also said that in the future, the combination of ChatGPT and virtual humans and robots will be necessary.

The most important thing about virtual humans and robots is the cloud brain. In the next step, it will be a global trend to connect ChatGPT to various virtual humans and robots.

  "ChatGPT can play a big role in the field of digital collections, and can improve and improve efficiency from steps such as auxiliary design, digital cultural creation, and automatic generation." Shen Yang said.

  Shen Yang concluded that the potential services of artificial intelligence will gradually shift from more accurate knowledge to explanatory and explanatory knowledge, and finally to innovative knowledge. It will gradually form such an evolutionary logic.

Which "rice bowls" will be replaced?

Does it affect employment?

  Shen Yang said that first of all, ChatGPT makes some tools easy to be replaced, while some tools are enhanced.

For example, search engines, drawing software, office office software, etc. will all be enhanced.

"The enhancement of tools will bring about the improvement of efficiency, that is, the types of work that often use this type of software may be replaced earlier."

  "There is also customer service. At present, on various e-commerce platforms or a certain company's website, some real people are answering consumers' questions. In the future, the role of these people will be further reduced, because you only need to instill the knowledge of this industry into it. , with the blessing of artificial intelligence, automatic replies or online robots can answer these questions more accurately."

  For example, in Shenyang, the "job bowl" of programmers may also face the challenge of ChatGPT. You only need to describe the task, and artificial intelligence can generate relatively simple code. Of course, the code will become more and more complicated in the next step, but because artificial Intelligence can also read through all the open source codes on the Internet, and its programming ability will become stronger and stronger in the future.

  Some netizens said on the Internet, "The irony is that programmers developed ChatGPT, but ChatGPT wants programmers to lose their jobs."

  Finally, Shen Yang emphasized that the employment problem brought about by ChatGPT should be viewed from both sides. This is a double-edged sword.

For example, in the cultural and creative industry, using ChatGPT to write manuscripts can make some "self-media" unemployed, but at the same time, to a certain extent, it can also make a mediocre "writer" suddenly improve the quality of his work.

  "In short, ChatGPT either improves the quality or improves the efficiency. If the efficiency is improved, some people will actually lose their jobs." Shen Yang said.

What kind of harm may be caused by being complained about not having "humanity"?

  After ChatGPT became popular, it also caused some controversy. Many media reported that Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak even directly complained that ChatGPT may have made some terrible mistakes while bringing us some convenience, because it Do not understand "human nature", lack of unique human emotions and qualities.

  Shen Yang believes that the harm of ChatGPT is firstly manifested in whether the content it outputs is credible or not.

Many test results show that ChatGPT answers the question of the unique answer very accurately; but if the question asked is a little more esoteric, it may be a multi-choice, the ChatGPT error rate increases.

  "If it's a completely open question with nonsense, ChatGPT will sometimes give you nonsense. Even if you ask a question seriously, it may reply you with a content mixed with false information." Shen Yang said for example .

  In fact, Google has paid the price for this.

Google's parent company Alphabet's recently released new artificial intelligence technology Bard made an error during a demonstration, which aroused investor concerns, causing the company's stock price to plummet, and its market value evaporated by about $100 billion at the time.

  In addition, Shen Yang said that the information released by the media contained in the ChatGPT answer is relatively small, so in terms of the quality of the answer content and the prejudice of values, it still has big problems in some fields. These problems are Other AIGC platforms need to be avoided in the future.

  Shen Yang also said that when AI can replace part of the thinking of the human brain, the value of the thinking of the human brain will be partially offset.
