China Economic Network Tianjin, May 5 (Reporter Liu Xiaoxiao) The popularity of generative artificial intelligence has once again aroused widespread attention to the development of artificial intelligence around the world, and let people appreciate the importance of large models to the development of artificial intelligence. During the 18th World Intelligence Conference, which opened today, scholars, experts and business people from the global field of science and technology expressed their in-depth views on whether the future artificial intelligence technology will become a "threat" to mankind itself.
"I'm not worried that big models will lead to fewer human jobs." Baidu CEO Robin Li said in a speech titled "Big Model Changes Artificial Intelligence", "The greatest danger and greatest unsustainability of human beings is not the uncertainty brought about by innovation. On the contrary, we stop innovating, do not invent, do not create, do not progress, and follow the inertia, and the various unpredictable risks brought about by it are the greatest threat to mankind. ”
In Li's view, the best way to find out the answer is to look to the past. He cited the occupations of underground water workers, coachmen, and typists in the past few hundred years as examples, pointing out that as these jobs disappeared, many new jobs also appeared, accompanied by rapid population growth and per capita GDP. "I'm personally an optimist, and I'm not worried that big models will lead to fewer jobs for humans and worse lives. The question is whether our education can help the younger generation adapt to rapid technological change. ”
At the same time, more participants were equally optimistic about the prospects of artificial intelligence. Isachenko, chairman of the executive committee of the Mogilev region of Belarus, believes that new technologies of artificial intelligence will enhance the well-being of humanity and free it from heavy work. Harald Kuhn, director of the Institute for Electronic Nanosystems of the Fraunhofer Society in Germany, believes that in the field of intelligent driving, artificial intelligence with extremely low power consumption will promote the development of nanotechnology in the field of microelectronics and chips.
"If it is just fun to draw and write poetry, then the value created by artificial intelligence for the real economy is more worthy of attention and research and development." Yang Yuanqing, chairman and CEO of Lenovo Group, pointed out that by deploying computing power resources and improving computing efficiency, enterprises can more quickly combine artificial intelligence models and algorithms to mine the value of data, so as to better support business decisions.
Liu Qingfeng, chairman of iFLYTEK, said that taking the company's Spark model as an example, general artificial intelligence is continuing to empower developers, which greatly lowers the threshold for entrepreneurs. "As long as you can write prompts, be creative and inspired, then a lot of things can be done by general artificial intelligence."
It is understood that this World Intelligence Conference was held in Tianjin from May 5 to 18. With the theme of "Smart Mobility Worldwide and Dynamic Future", the conference focused on intelligent technology to empower economic and social development, gather talents from all over the world to seek a smart future, gather intelligent achievements, achieve win-win sharing, and comprehensively create a new window to showcase smart Tianjin and digital China.
