Chapter 24: Programming Languages with Imagination
Li Xiaohu had been nervous all along, although Chen Hongmei helped him make excuses and his classmates were all on his side, but the new student Wang Qianqian was an exception. Li Xiaohu fell in love with this beautiful girl from Beijing at first sight, he couldn't understand why Wang Qianqian was so enthusiastic about Feng Xiaotian, a classmate who picked up trash?
Li Xiaohu didn't know that it was because Wang Qianqian had good family education and she wanted to be a teacher, so naturally, she would learn to care about every classmate. What Li Xiaohu feared was that Wang Qianqian would go to the headteacher and tattle, her father being a university teacher, so the headteacher would definitely treat her words differently. At this moment, seeing Feng Xiaotian leave school with his backpack, Li Xiaohu's hanging heart finally put down, he knew that the winner of this matter was him.
So Li Xiaohu laughed, laughing very recklessly. The whole class of Grade 1 Class 3 was almost the same as him, and the entire group was very happy. As for Feng Xiatian, this annoying person leaving, they were all seeking to get rid of him. In this way, Grade 1 Class 3 would no longer be ridiculed by students from other classes because of Feng Xiatian's existence.
The principal suppressed the students' laughter and said seriously into the microphone: "Comrades, everyone must remember that poverty is not to be feared, difficulties are not to be feared, what's fearful is retreating in the face of difficulties. The student who just spoke is your anti-example..."
The principal was deeply moved and made a profound analysis of the matter, but all this was not heard by Feng Xiaotian, who was rushing home on his way, he knew that a new life was waiting for him to create!
Guo Lin's house was not too far from Feng Xiaotian's, and it usually took him about 20 minutes to walk this distance. However, today, Feng Xiaotian returned home in just 10 minutes. He slammed the door shut behind him, and his forehead was covered in sweat due to his rapid running. But he didn't care, panting heavily as he opened his computer and sat down at the desk, waiting quietly for it to boot up.
For artificial intelligence, Feng Xiaotian already has a basic development concept, that is, to nurture it like parents nurturing their children. On this point, Feng Xiaotian decided to start from the most basic place and compare computers with humans to determine the key points: Humans are a very peculiar animal, composed of cellular molecules, with auditory, visual, gustatory, tactile, and olfactory senses. It is through these senses that humans enrich themselves and understand and familiarize themselves with the world. Therefore, to develop artificial intelligence, at least these points must be satisfied.
Feng Xiaotian thought that among the five points, only two could be achieved: hearing and vision. The others seemed unrealistic for a machine. Although it was not complete, Feng Xiaotian took action anyway, believing that making computers more human-like would bring them closer to artificial intelligence.
Feng Xiao Tian installed the small speaker from the radio onto the computer and modified the computer's voice control program, so that the computer could not only produce sound but also "hear" external sounds.
As for the visual, there is a camera on the computer monitor, so this saves Feng Xiaotian a lot of trouble. After installing the small speaker for nearly half an hour, he established a new system folder in the computer and started writing smart programs.
This should be the most difficult part, also the most core and mysterious part. This time, Feng Xiaotian wrote a program without using the most common computer programming language, but instead used his native language - Chinese. As for this point, Feng Xiaotian had already considered it very clearly. He had written many programs before, and in his opinion, BASIC was currently the most popular computer programming language. Although it was easy to use and concise, it was not suitable for writing intelligent programs. The reason was simple - because it was too rigid and lacked imagination space!
According to Feng Xiaotian's own understanding, artificial intelligence is a program with autonomous thinking ability. Artificial intelligence is different from humans and has no peers, so it cannot acquire knowledge reserves like humans do through group interactions. Therefore, the underlying entity of artificial intelligence should be written in an abstract language. What language in the world is most abstract? The answer is Chinese!
Although other languages also have words with multiple meanings, compared to Chinese, they are not worth mentioning. In Chinese, the same character has different pronunciations and even different meanings, which is quite common. Moreover, when describing the same thing, there are different words used, and dialects from various regions are not identical. As a result, Chinese is more abstract and suitable for writing intelligent programs, as thought by Feng Xiaotian.
Feng Xiao Tian used to not take action, that was because he hadn't found a foothold, but now it's different, he has already determined the development path of intelligent programs, which is similar to human gestation mode. What is human gestation mode? Simply put, it's also very simple, that is, through the combination of two different cell molecules, giving birth to an intelligent system!
Humans are born through the combination of sperm and egg to nurture the next generation, but computers do not have this human ability. Feng Xiaotian's approach to dealing with this is very simple, that is, writing two different programs and then combining them together. Although it sounds simple, the actual operation is very difficult. Before, Feng Xiaotian only thought of writing one program, but looking at the current situation, two programs are indispensable, so this also increases the difficulty.
Feng Xiang Tian has already given two program segments their own names - "Paternal Program" and "Maternal Program". The paternal program includes the most basic moral codes of human behavior, methods for dealing with people, and the fundamental content of survival. The maternal program is more complex because it covers the most difficult content for artificial intelligence, as it includes emotions!
Human emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure are all in the maternal program. It is the most critical factor in enriching artificial intelligence. Once this program goes wrong, artificial intelligence cannot be born.
Feng Xiaotian started writing the paternal program, he decided to start from scratch and take it one step at a time. Since he was using Chinese characters, the Microsoft 3.0 system couldn't recognize them, so all the characters he typed out were garbled code. Although Feng Xiaotian couldn't understand these garbled codes, he persisted in using Chinese. It didn't matter if he wasn't familiar with it now, with time, he would naturally become more familiar.
