Chapter 64: It's going to be a startling new technology
Wu Hao glanced at everyone, then looked at the chief and said, "Actually, I'm a rather casual person, and I can't stand too many rules and regulations."
The environment of the institute is very good, and the scientific research equipment is also very complete, but there are too many restrictions for me. I can still serve customers due to the limitations of life, but I can't adapt to the limitations of scientific research.
I want to use what I have learned to achieve results in more areas, give back to the society and serve the country.
Take this technology as an example, it is a weapon to defend the country against foreign enemies in military terms. However, it can bring technological upgrades to many industries in the civilian field, and even an industrial innovation.
For example, the drone light and shadow show technology we cooperated with Dajiang has gained a very good reputation after the performance in Yangcheng, and now we are invited to perform in many aspects.
There is also the intelligent logistics technology that we have cooperated with Ali, which has also made quite good progress. It is expected that soon, we can only run a logistics warehouse and suddenly test run.
The research and development of drone express delivery technology will also start soon, which is expected to set off a storm in the entire express logistics industry. And more timely and fast drone express delivery will also benefit many people in remote areas. There is also computing in unmanned driving, smart agriculture and so on.
In addition, I have other related research and development plans. In fact, we are already making preparations, and during this time, we have recruited a considerable number of scientific research and technical talents from all walks of life to the society.
I think you'll be amazed when this technology is developed. ”
"Haha, I said, it turned out that I was reluctant to give up the favorable environment outside." The chief laughed and said, "I understand, this also represents the true thoughts of this vast number of young people. The living conditions of the military are certainly not as good as those in the local area, so most people will have this kind of worry.
However, we are already making relevant reforms in order to attract more people of insight from the society to join us.
Only in this way can our national defense become stronger, better safeguard national security, and ensure people's livelihood.
Of course, we respect your choice. I also believe that talented people like you can shine wherever they are placed.
I also look forward to your persistent efforts to create more and better scientific research results for the benefit of society and the country. ”
"Thank you, chief, I will definitely continue to work hard."
Wu Hao nodded and said seriously: "Although I am in society, I am concerned about the army. In the future, as long as the troops need it, I will do my best to learn and do my best. ”
"Okay, I want you to have such an attitude, and the army also needs the help of high-quality social talents like you." The chief shouted at him with appreciation.
"Xiao Wu, can you tell us about this new technology you are preparing? It's no one else, it's okay for you to talk about it, and we won't leak it out. Yang Xuehai was very interested in the new technology that Wu Hao just said.
Zhao Hongzhe nodded and smiled: "Tell me, I'm also very interested." ”
During this time, Wu Hao gets along with them day and night, so outside of work, they will also talk about other things.
Therefore, I know that Wu Hao's company has been recruiting people everywhere during this time, and has also bought a lot of equipment.
Everyone was very curious about this, but every time Wu Hao was reluctant to say more. This time, he just said it, so Zhao Yang, who had always been interested, immediately took this opportunity to ask.
Seeing the interested eyes of the chief and everyone, Wu Hao had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a technology about intelligent voice assistants, which is not much different from those elf speakers on the market at present." ”
"Huh?"
Hearing him say this, everyone was even more puzzled. Since it was about the same, why did he spend such a large formation studying this aspect of technology. No, this kid must have something he doesn't want to say.
Facing everyone's interrogating gaze, Wu Hao knew that these few words were not enough to deal with these people, so he continued: "Recently or for a long time, AI technology has been a topic that everyone is keen to discuss and hype.
Of course, there are many surprising advanced AI technologies in this field, and many of them are hyped up under the guise of AI to attract attention, etc.
I won't give examples of all of these, but what interests me or inspires me is actually a new AI technology that has only been born in the past two years.
DeepFakes, as the name suggests, are the replacement of one face with another in an image or video.
In fact, this face swapping technology is not very new in the field of film and television production. It's just that the previous face swapping technology was very complicated, and it required a lot of time and effort from professional post-production special effects experts to complete the entire process.
And this DeepFakes can be said to be a breakthrough in face swapping technology. Using the relevant AI algorithm, we only need some materials, an ordinary computer, to be able to produce a fake and real face swap video, which is very convenient.
Recently, a new technology has been revealed in this regard, which can use AI algorithms to simulate human lip movements and change the shape of a person's mouth.
In other words, what this person looks like and what he says in the future video may be false, which will undoubtedly bring new challenges to network information security in the future. ”
"This technology is really tricky for social information security."
Everyone is an expert in the military, and the first thing that comes to mind is what he calls the military use of this technology.
If even a person's appearance and mouth shape can be imitated, it will be too effective for propaganda warfare, intelligence warfare, and psychological warfare. And for the inside of the combat object, it is an absolute nightmare. Because the vast majority of people will not be able to distinguish between what is real and what is false, this will greatly destroy the will to resist the internal forces of the target of the war.
At the thought of this, everyone frowned. Zhao Hongzhe looked at Wu Hao and said: "What is the connection between this technology and your intelligent voice assistant, and you ......?"
Wu Hao nodded with a smile and said, "I just have some ideas, but I don't know if I can succeed." ”
Silk...... Hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but take a breath. Now it can simulate people's appearance and mouth shape, if the program that Wu Hao said can simulate real human voices comes out, what kind of commotion will it cause.
As soon as I thought of this, everyone couldn't help but discuss the technology in this area. How to use it in the field of military operations and how to prevent it have become the focus of discussion.
However, everyone seems to have focused all their attention on the four words 'intelligent voice' in Wu Hao's words, but instinctively ignored the 'assistant' in the back. You know, this is a technical problem that Wu Hao wants to develop and overcome, and it is also the core of this technology.
