While Chinese are still immersed in the delicacies of the Year of the Dragon, Chinese New Year movies, Jia Ling**, Spring Festival traffic jams and sky-high air tickets in Hainan, the American technology community dropped a bombshell.
The United States OpenAI released SORA on February 16, just like the birth of Chat GPT 14 months ago, one stone stirred up a thousand waves and caused a global industry shock. Once again, it is proved that real technological innovation is not in the hands of consumers and consumers, but in the hands of creators and creators.
In fact, in the current China, many people still don't know what AI artificial intelligence is, and they haven't even written an article with ChatGPT. Sora was quietly born! According to reports, this guy can generate up to 1 minute of realism based on text or voice descriptions.
No matter how realistic, labor-saving, and popular the intelligence described on the Internet is, this is not too much, and it is normal. What is it worth reflecting on? In the future era, whether it is the triumph of science and technology, or the tragedy of human nature? Where does China go from here?
Previously, people were generally concerned about whether artificial intelligence would make many people lose their jobs; Hearing more worries is, will the future of humanity be controlled by intelligent robots?
Actually, there is no need to worry about this at all. "Existence is reasonable"! The emergence of all species in the world is justified and will neither develop completely according to the human mind, nor change completely according to the fears of human beings. Just like the flaws of Sora and ChatGPT in the creation.
What we really have to worry about should be how to quickly follow up and narrow the gap in China's science and technology in the wave after wave.
History has constantly proved that every time we fall behind, we have been humiliated and have paid a heavy price.
In 1448, the German craftsman invented his printing press at Gutenberg. The popularization of a large number of bookcases in Europe and the acceleration of the exchange of academic ideas gave birth to the "Renaissance", and the ensuing technological revolution has been unstoppable in waves and unstoppable until today.
When China was still immersed in the joy of the "Four Great Inventions," foreigners began to pry open China's doors with cannons and sharp ships, and the "Opium War" broke out that shocked China and the rest of the world.
In the 60s of the 18th century, the world's first industrial revolution occurred, which was a huge revolution in the history of technological development, which ushered in the era of replacing manual labor with machines. This is not only a technological change, but also a profound social change. At that time, China was still under the ignorant rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the "Kangqian Prosperous Era". More than 100 years later, the idea of the "Westernization Movement" began to enlighten.
In the middle of the 19th century, still in the Qing Dynasty, European countries, the United States, and Japan completed the second industrial revolution one after another. When mankind entered the "electric age", China was still dark.
In the forties and fifties of the 20th century, when the world had the third scientific and technological revolution - information technology. At a time when there was another major leap in the history of human civilization, China was either engaged in a "civil war" or engaged in a "movement".
It's not terrible to know that you are backward, but what is terrible is to know that you are backward and not admit it!
Humans, who claim to be the spirits of all things, should have prepared for the worst when they invented these robotic animals. Controlling the power switch is the last line of defense in the hands of humans.
How will the unarrived AI change our lives? The benevolent see the benevolent, the wise see the wise, and the answers on the Internet are strange. The consoling answer is,The world of the future will not replace humans with AI, but people who will use AI will replace people who can't use AI. Just like the people who could drive in those days, it is exactly the same as replacing the people who can only drive horse-drawn carriages.
From Musk's earlier announcement of a robot that can give birth to babies and do housework, to the appearance of Sora this time, it has also aroused the amazement of domestic experts or peers.
Some people worry that artificial intelligence in the future is likely to give birth to its own independent consciousness; Some people also believe that since artificial intelligence can produce a virtual model, it is difficult to rule out that our real world is the prophecy of Zhuang Zhou Mengdie.
Others believe that AI-generated ** may make positions such as actors and directors less popular; Some people even believe that SORA will not affect Douyin, but will be used by Douyin.
Actually, I don't think that's what we're worried about at all. The most worthy reflection in China should be how to overtake in the new round of science and technology, how to catch up with the United States and Japan, how to have a few more Huaweis, how to break through the "stuck neck" of the technology industry, and make its chips thinner.
