Deciphering how AI perceives decision-making and creation

The popularity of ChatGPT around the world at the beginning of the year aroused public concern about generative AI. Sun Maosong, executive vice president of the artificial Intelligence Research Institute of Tsinghua University, and his team have developed the AI poetry writing model "Nine songs" since 2015, showing teenagers the natural language processing technology behind the popular science AI. Sun Maosong said that traditional Chinese poetry pays attention to rhythm and neatness of opposites, contains far-reaching images, and its semantic expression is more rich and complex. Based on the classical poem big data, Nine songs designed and constructed an automatic writing system for poetry and couplet AI, which strengthens AI's ability to understand and analyze Chinese. "the pine trees on the mountain are green-eyed, and the waterside attic is lined with windows. Living in seclusion is far away from Sanfeng Bi, and the monk's house is clearly foggy." He used a seven-word quilt created by "Nine songs" to guide young people to appreciate the charm of the collision between traditional culture and cutting-edge science and technology.

Wang Jie, an expert and researcher on Tencent's AI Lab voice technology, explains to teenagers how AI can "listen and learn" from humans. " When talking to others in a noisy environment, the human brain will automatically shield the surrounding 'noise' and focus its attention on the target object and hear each other clearly, "Wang said. Tencent AI Lab uses this as inspiration to design a low-level model for training AI listening, allowing AI to use" judge important information-focus-extract new information "as a progressive way, in a noisy environment. Intelligent analysis of noise reduction, "hear" the target sound.

Intelligent decision-making is one of the important directions in the development of artificial intelligence. "Research and development of intelligent decision-making can not be separated from simulation scenarios." Liu Lin, head of Tencent's enlightenment platform, said that relying on "Arena of Valor" game scenes and computing framework, the enlightenment platform provides a simulation environment for intelligent decision-making research for dozens of well-known universities, such as Tsinghua University, University of Electronic Science and Technology, and so on. College students can develop their own decision algorithm model, test and verify the effect in the virtual game scene, and train AI to analyze complex environment and make intelligent decision independently. With the help of the cutting-edge AI technology of game scene training, it is also serving production and life. For example, the new generation of full-motion flight simulator visual system jointly developed by Tencent and China Southern Airlines can restore an airport with high precision in three days, helping Chinese civil aviation pilots to train more efficiently.
