I can upgrade the shelter-Chapter 638 - 536 Artificial Intelligence

Robots are truly nothing new, even long ago, they had quite comprehensive settings and concepts formed.

The idea of creating a machine similar to humans, to replace human work and labor, thus liberating humans from work, should be considered the earliest conception of robots.

However, making a machine that resembles a human is easy, even in the era of the First Industrial Revolution, humans had such capability.

Yet, to make this created entity move and possess intelligence to replace human work, is something humanity hasn't figured out since the First Industrial Revolution.

Although modern technology has gradually allowed large robots to replace manual labor, the humanoid highly intelligent robots envisioned by humanity have yet to be born.

Scripts about robot rebellions and robot logic principles have even been written, yet true artificial intelligence is still nowhere in sight.

There is still a significant difference between artificial intelligence and intelligent programs; intelligent programs just appear smart. At their core, they are made up of sufficient conditional judgments written by programmers, allowing the program to provide pre-written results based on conditions.

For example, a basic program could be written to produce, upon input of "1", the output "Hello"; upon input of "2", it outputs "Pleased to serve you."

Based on this, by continuously enhancing and filling in the input conditions and output results, one can eventually obtain an intelligent program that looks indistinguishable from a real person.

But this program itself is still just a program; it cannot think, nor does it have self-learning abilities; everything is pre-written in the program.

But artificial intelligence is different; it can learn independently, think, and even improve itself.

The most important among these abilities is learning and thinking; after all, the essence of a program is to respond passively, whereas artificial intelligence needs to be proactive.

A true artificial intelligence can learn, imitate, collect information, and constantly improve itself. Even if there are no pre-written input conditions and output results in the program, it can construct the input and output programs on its own, "learning" to provide results based on conditions.

Currently, these researchers have acquired an artificial intelligence capable of self-learning and installed it onto a robot, teaching it to clean.

This is undoubtedly a significant breakthrough and makes these researchers eager to go further, developing a truly intelligent robot, not merely a machine operating according to predefined programs.

Chen Xin naturally expressed support for these researchers' intentions, but he also warned them not to go too far and breach the most fundamental limits.

After all, artificial intelligence does inherently have some dangers.

When Chen Xin was creating the mechanical hound, he merely installed a weak AI on it, rather than a strong AI, purely for safety reasons.

What is known as weak AI only appears smart like a human. Its essence is still just a program; all learning and imitation behavior processes are still processes set by the program. It can think, but this is just program logic judgment; it has no self-awareness or thoughts.

But strong AI is different; it possesses self-awareness, perception, and consciousness, able to clearly recognize itself and ponder the meaning of its own existence, making it fundamentally closer to humans or simply another soul-bearing life form.

Weak AI is not a concern; as long as the core logic remains, it cannot be bypassed, and the program's logic can be locked down.

For instance, rules like not harming humans can be written into the core logic, and the program will not be able to harm humans.

Of course, to truly achieve this, more detailed and loophole-free logical settings are required. But as long as the settings are thorough enough, the program cannot break through or bypass them, and must obediently execute according to the program.

But strong AI is different; it can bypass these things.

To give the simplest example, a person, no matter how much you tell them not to harm humans, can overcome this cognition.

This is the difference between humans and machines, and strong AI can essentially be viewed as a person.

The researchers certainly understand this point; their goal is to create robots that can replace human work, not to create a new silicon-based species, so after Chen Xin warned them, they assured him earnestly that they wouldn't go out of bounds. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Regarding this, Chen Xin still has faith in them, and he firmly supports the researchers' desire to create robots that replace human labor.

At least, the introduction of intelligent robots to replace human work will undoubtedly accelerate the country's current construction pace.

After all, everyone knows the key to development and construction is resources and manpower, and resources can be obtained through labor.

With the technology to create robots, they can be used to extract resources, then create more robots, continuing this cycle to produce more robots to replace human labor.

Robots, unlike humans, do not need rest; they only require simple maintenance to keep working nonstop, which is unquestionably much more efficient than human labor.

In the current cold environment, having robots replace human labor can also release humans from dangerous working environments.

After all, even with Protective Suits to resist the cold, working outside in tens of degrees below zero is still extremely dangerous. Letting robots work, even if there is danger, the loss is just a machine, but for humans, danger could mean the loss of a life.

Therefore, Chen Xin naturally wants to strongly support the researchers' ideas.

Moreover, he himself was inspired to come up with new ideas as a result of the researchers' thoughts.

If artificial intelligence can be installed in robots allowing them to work, why not install it in Titan to let Titan work?

In essence, there's no difference between the two; Titan is essentially a robot too, just a larger one capable of doing more work.

And implementing this is not difficult, in fact, it's even simpler than making a robot intelligent.

Because Titan already comes equipped with computers possessing strong computing capabilities, replacing the operating system designed for human pilots with artificial intelligence would allow Titan to move autonomously.
