With regard to artificial intelligence, the attention of technology giants is much stronger than ours. Their professional and social status makes them pay more attention to and capture information in the field of artificial intelligence than ordinary people. It can be said that they know artificial intelligence better than us. However, technology giants have their own unique opinions, and naturally they have different views on artificial intelligence. The most famous is the argument between Tesla and Facebook. So what are these two giants arguing about? Let me give you a good introduction.

1. What are the bosses arguing about artificial intelligence?

Previously, Tesla and Facebook had a debate on artificial intelligence, and then attracted technology giants to stand in line. Obviously, more celebrities support Facebook. So what are the arguments of big brothers about artificial intelligence? First of all, it is certain that they are not arguing about pure artificial intelligence technology, but discussing the possibility and awakening time of strong artificial intelligence. In fact, the binary division between weak artificial intelligence and strong artificial intelligence is not very reasonable. We all know that the development of technology is a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. It is difficult to have a technical watershed between weakness and strength, just like the three ups and downs of neural networks. Ten years ago, without the support of big data, the learning effect of neural network was not good. Can't say it's useless, because there is big data, and the learning effect is good enough to say it? A certain technology can't explain the problem, and the breakthrough development in a field is often driven by the perfection of a series of key technologies, which are indispensable. Therefore, the division between weak artificial intelligence and strong artificial intelligence is unreasonable.

2. When will strong artificial intelligence come?

Then, the key question that technology giants are concerned about now is, when will strong artificial intelligence come? This is also the focus of debate between the two technology giants. The prediction of this time actually has no accurate basis. Has there been a sudden change in the development process of our human beings? Is there a lot? For example, before the invention of the atomic bomb, most scientists predicted that it would be impossible in the short term, at least for decades, and some scientists predicted that it would only take a few years. So is the three ups and downs of artificial intelligence. The predictions of previous decades have all failed. Will there be a mutation in the next few years? This is anybody's guess. First of all, we can't infer the future development potential of deep learning technology according to its existing limitations. Whether strong artificial intelligence can wake up depends on whether there is the ultimate algorithm of machine learning in the next few years, or whether there is a deep network that completely decodes the learning mechanism of human brain, or whether the deep network produces primary consciousness through ontological learning and memory. These are unpredictable, so we can only break through our current content.

We will introduce you to the debate between the two technology giants here. In fact, there is still a long way to go before the development of strong artificial intelligence. What we can do now is to try our best to play our due value in the field we are good at. However, when artificial intelligence can usher in a qualitative leap or outbreak, we must go on step by step. I believe that the pace of human science and technology will certainly go more firmly and faster.
