Master50 winning streak, artificial intelligence can not be underestimated

At the turn of the New Year, there was a mysterious go-go account Master in addition to the days after the reopening of the concert in 6 years. From December 29th, the Master took turns to challenge the major Go players on the Go game platform, such as Yicheng and Wild Fox, and achieved an incredible multi-game winning streak. On the evening of January 3, the Master continued his record and defeated the top masters of South Korea's Pu Tingheng and China's Ke Jie, winning 50 consecutive victories.

When the Master killed the Quartet, it also caused some discussion about its identity. Some people think that this is the trumpet of Go masters, but some coaches believe that the overwhelming record of the top Chinese and Korean masters can almost be ruled out as human players. Although there is no organization or institution that “claims” the ownership of the Master, many voices believe that the real body of the Master is artificial intelligence and is an upgraded version of the Alpha Dog. Some players even said helplessly, "Which dog is coming out and coming back, we already know it is amazing."

It has been 20 years since Deep Blue defeated chess champion Casparos. In the past 20 years, the hardware and algorithms of the machine have been greatly improved. Last year, the Alpha dog defeated Li Shishi is a good proof. AR, artificial intelligence and smart driving are the hotspots of technology in recent years. Whether they admit it or not, they are all coming into our lives, or they are in the air or quiet.

Watson Explorer, an artificial intelligence platform maintained by Japan's rich country life insurance, has processed 132,000 insurance cases in fiscal 2015. The introduction of artificial intelligence has greatly improved the efficiency of case processing. The company decided to replace 34 human employees with artificial intelligence platforms in January to perform insurance claims analysis. Our lives are surrounded by technology, and the machines that humans make replace human beings in some areas. The difficulty of Go is beyond imagination. It took the machine 20 years to defeat the chess champion to the Go Champion. In 2047, we might read the science fiction novels written by an artificial intelligence robot.

As far as current technology is concerned, artificial intelligence has begun to gradually replace human employees in some industries, but these areas still have rules to follow. In addition to the obvious repetitive work that is easily replaced by artificial intelligence, those "work content can be reduced to specific steps, and the judgment is also based on the formatted data" work category, will also become the "leader" replaced by artificial intelligence. Therefore, it is worthwhile to regard the Master's 50-game winning streak as the signal and alarm of artificial intelligence and human confrontation. In the era of artificial intelligence, how humans complete their own "refresh and upgrade" is worth everyone to think about.

Technology is reshaping the relationship between humans and artificial intelligence. In the near future, will artificial intelligence beat humanity?
