你和你的电脑谁更聪明?毫无疑问,是你。你是有智慧的,而你的电脑没有,尽管它们有时看起来好像有。不可否认,目前计算机在很多方面所表现出的工作效率,都远远超过了人类。它们能预测几天,甚至十几天之后的天气;能模拟原子弹爆炸的细节;能在下国际象棋这样的原本是充分体现人类智能的事情上挫败人类。但所有这些,只是因为我们给它们编写了相关的程序。计算机只是按照我们预先设定的规则和逻辑进行运算,然后得出结果。一句话,计算机还从未做出过什么出乎我们意料之外的事情。就现阶段而言,从本质上讲计算机和尖嘴钳完全一样,没有任何智慧。但计算机和尖嘴钳又的确有很大的不同。计算机“进化”得很快,单个芯片上的晶体管数量每18个月就翻一番。IntelPentium4芯片中,拥有的晶体管数量已
Who are smarter about you and your computer? No doubt, it’s you. You are smart, and your computer does not, though they sometimes seem to be there. Admittedly, the efficiency of computers in many aspects far outweighs that of mankind. They predict the weather in days or even tens of days; they mimic the details of the atomic bombings; they can defeat humans in such things as chess that otherwise would fully reflect human intelligence. But all this, just because we wrote the relevant programs for them. The computer only operates according to our pre-set rules and logic, and then draws the result. In short, computers have never done anything beyond our expectations. At this stage, essentially, computers and needle-nose pliers are exactly the same, without any intelligence. But computers and needle-nosed pliers do make a big difference. Computers “evolve” quickly, doubling the number of transistors on a single chip every 18 months. IntelPentium4 chip, the number of transistors have been
