人类一直想尽办法减少体力劳动和重覆性工序,在科技未出现之前,通常都是靠剥削其他同伴来达到目的。找机械人帮手似乎是个可行方法,几百年来,机械人技术令不少人深深着迷,就连希腊神话中的赫菲斯托斯也制造了机械工人帮忙铸铁。不过,人工智能技术的发展要到最近才渐见成熟,有望改变人类的未来。
AI
Mankind has always looked for ways to reduce manual labor and repetitive tasks. To that end, and in the absence of technology, civilization exploited various me- thods, often by taking advantage of their fellow humans.
Robots, as a potential solution, have long fascinated mankind, capturing our imagination for centuries. Even in Greek mythology, the god Hephaestus had « mechanical » servants. But not until recently, has artificial intelligence finally progressed to a level that will become more and more life-changing for the future of humanity.
