When Tangerine came to Yan University to look for Professor Li Jiayang, Professor Li Jiayang already had a guest here.

"Tangerine, let me introduce to you, this is a rookie in the domestic mathematics field, Professor Lu Zhou, who just stepped down from Princeton as a professor not long ago and returned to China to teach!"

ps haha, it's very fun to peel it!

Hearing that the professor who stepped down from Princeton and returned to China to teach, Tangerine's heart also fluctuated a lot, these years, there are more and more talents who can go out in China, but after going out, they can not forget their original intentions and return to China for development.

There is even a joke in the industry that China is a super big education factory, with world-class test-taking education and the largest population, it has cultivated a large number of talents for Wall Street and foreign high-end technology fields!

"Professor Lu, this is the orange citrus student I mentioned to you before, and the articles published in "AI" that you expressed great interest in are from him!"

Hearing the news, Professor Lu was also a little excited, and after shaking hands with Tangerine Mandarin, he smiled and said, "Orange Mandarin, fortunately!" I was just exchanging some of your views in the field of AI with Professor Li, but I didn't expect to meet the main one! ”

Tangerine also smiled, "Professor Lu, it's a good luck!" ”

After greetings, the three of them sat down to chat, and from Professor Li's mouth, Tangerine learned how open the life of this big bull is.

When he was a freshman, he proved the Mersenne prime conjecture, which was proposed by the domestic mathematician and linguist Zhou Haizhong in 1992 in the article "The Distribution Law of Mersenne Prime Numbers", which successfully rose to Zhou's theorem.

After proving Zhou's conjecture, the big guy seemed to have completely woken up, and at the academic report on the proof of the Mersenne prime conjecture in Princeton, he cut off the twin prime conjecture in one go, which shocked the world's mathematicians.

After overcoming the twin primes, the big guy continued to move forward, and finally drew a diagonal line on the Polignac conjecture, and won a medal of the Cole Number Theory Award for the achievement of the twin prime conjecture and the Polignac conjecture!

During his time at Princeton, the bigwig's goal seems to have been on the top-level difficulty of "Gochai", and before graduation, he will conquer "Gochai" and completely cap the math edifice.

With this achievement, the big guy was directly awarded a graduation qualification by Princeton University and became the youngest professor at Princeton.

During his tenure as a teacher, the big guy also guided his students to successfully prove the Kakutani conjecture!

ps, I have made a certain degree of modification to the timeline of Lu Shen's life achievements, and it is really not easy to do the exact same.

As a person who has won the Fields Medal, the Wolf Medal, the Cafford Medal and other mathematical awards, if he just tosses hard in pure number theory, this big guy is still an idle person, and he has made achievements in materials science, physics, energy science, biochemistry, and engineering, which is simply a monster!

And now, when I came to Yan University to communicate with Professor Li Jiayang, who is a big bull in the field of AI in China, his direction is very clear, and it is obvious that he is going to march in the direction of informatics.

Science changes the world, and mathematics changes science!

This big guy has been practicing this sentence.

Lu Shen: "When I was in Princeton, I had an exchange with Drjhon, and his views on the direction of AI development coincided with your article published in AI. ”

Instead of answering this question, Orange asked Lu Zhou, "Professor Lu, have you had any other exchanges with Drjhon since you met him at Princeton?" ”

Lu Shen shook his head, "When I wanted to contact him, I heard the news that he had died in a car accident, and the drkg who was traveling with him was not spared!" ”

Since the information that Lu Shen has ended here, Tangerine Can't tell him the content behind the death of the two big bulls, this kind of thing is not the more people who know, the better.

The topic pulled back, and Tachibana answered Lu Shen's question.

"Domestic ...... Well, not only in China, but also in my opinion, the current research in the field of AI is closed, the so-called research in the field of AI is nothing but the strengthening of simple control technology and instruction execution, and the improvement of conversion efficiency, and there is no real AI at all! ”

"To give a simple example, the current AI should be like a supercomputer operation, it has been repeating from beginning to end is just an exhaustive process, but because of the advantages of computers, the ultra-high operating speed makes the speed of the inefficient method of exhaustion to get the answer completely crush us human beings, so people are now beginning to rely on computers and rely on its efficiency."

"And the direction of AI development we should pursue should be to make AI like the human brain, which can leapfrog the exhaustive process and jump to the right side through abstract thinking, and only when this day comes, AI can live up to its name!"

"But to let the computer realize the simulation of the human brain function, it is relatively clear at present, and the more promising direction is neural network and computer bionics!"

At the end, Tachibana paused for a moment, then added, "It seems that Drjhon and Drkg have already achieved some results from their research on this path, but the misfortune that has made it possible for these results to appear in front of us a few years later." ”

Tachibana didn't want to express anything, just simply stated the facts, if these two bigwigs are still alive, it is not an exaggeration to say that the AI field is going to set off a storm that will change the world.

Listening to what Tangerine said, Lu Shen didn't express his opinion, and when Tangerine finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and then said, "Actually, I'm not optimistic about the development of this area, but the reason why I'm not optimistic is different from Professor Li, I don't think that the development of technology to a new height, people will be unacceptable to this, after all, human beings are the best at adapting to the environment." ”

"But I think it is very difficult to build a complete human brain function on the network, and I even assert that under the normal development of technology, it will take at least 20 to 30 years to complete the simulation of human brain function, and the technology developed in these 20 to 30 years may be immature and risky."

"Therefore, I prefer to give AI the ability to collect information and simulate emotions through the role of machine learning, when the number of information collected continues to accumulate, cross-reference, and cause qualitative changes, AI that realizes self-judgment and choice through information malleability will be born, and this is the direction that can and can be achieved at present!"

After saying this, Lu Shen got up to say goodbye.

In this regard, neither Tangerine nor Professor Li Jiayang expressed retention.

Why?

Because everyone gets what they want from each other, and besides, the Tao is different, and everyone's views in the field of AI are completely deviated, so what else is there to communicate.
