Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 574 Automation

[Elder Chen? 】

"Tsk, just call the elders - by the way, is there something wrong with the Cathay you learned in Rome? I'm not too worried about Phaethon now. What exactly is the 'academic Cathay' you learned?"

[Ah, you asked this. In fact, I feel that you are speaking in academic Sinian, so our conversation is very smooth. Academic Sinian means not using the extremely complicated words of modesty in Sinian, try not to use complex words, and try to use spoken language as much as possible. 】

"Is this complicated?"

[It’s too complicated! Don’t you think so yourself? Let me give you an example. From a grammatical perspective, there are a lot of ceremonial words in Chinese modesty words. For example, in terms of nouns, the personal pronoun should be added with "ling", "Your Majesty". But there is also the title of "reverence for father". Moreover, the words "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Naizun, Zunfu, Zunweng" are all different. Who knows what the difference is? Your Majesty refers to the other person's father, but specifically in the topic, it refers to the other person's father. Talk about your father-in-law. At the same time, when saying "Naizun" instead of "Your Majesty", you need to use "Naizun" instead of "Naizun" to increase the sense of distance]

"Is it so troublesome?"

[The trouble is not the noun, but the verb! This bunch of verbs is troublesome. For example, if your action involves the other party, you need to say "feng", such as return, inform, and send. When someone else's actions involve you, you should say "favor", such as patronage, patronage, etc. If the other party's behavior does not specifically involve you, you should use "ya", such as "elegant meaning". And we also need to consider the relationship between superiors and subordinates. If the other party is a superior, we have to change to another set of "vertical", such as asking questions. The other party is a subordinate or a peer who wants to change to a different kind of 'Xian'. It makes me look crazy. 】

"Ah, I don't think I talk like this."

[I’m lucky you don’t talk to me like that! Because I don't understand it at all. It seems to me that the people around you often accommodate you and don't say these overly complicated words of respect to you. In addition, the way you express respect is very similar to academic Sinian. 】

"Well, I feel like you're saying something that I'm used to but don't realize. How do you feel I usually talk?"

[When you usually want to express respect or humility, you would not use these complicated words of humility. Instead, you use the subjunctive mood. You use the subjunctive mood to replace these extremely complex terms - for example, you say 'if', 'can', 'if so'. 】

"Ah, so that's it? From your point of view, that's what I said."

【That’s a lot better to talk about! It's too complicated and I can't understand it at all. I'm afraid that's why Phaethon can communicate with you directly, and she can't understand the too complicated words of humility. It's fine as it is, very good, no problems at all. 】

"Should I study more occasionally? Because I find that sometimes it is very difficult to read official documents, and I can't keep up with the rhythm of the official documents when writing."

【right! Have you noticed it too? Those official documents are simply hellish! Every person, every verb, are all words of humility, and the direction of the face must be considered throughout the process. It is as if there is a force field covering the person who writes, and as soon as he enters, he stops speaking human words. Everything turned into "What's your wish" and "Welcome to you", a living hell of humble farewells. ]    "Tsk, but I feel like it would be a bit unethical if you don't speak much. It would be great if there was an automatic humility machine. Oh, by the way, can I ask Doudou to write it for me?"

[Well, let’s not talk about it, it seems really possible. 】

"But don't they know how to read at all?"

【no the same. It's true that they can't read, but if you ask them, they can ignore the specific meaning and treat the symbols as tasks, and that's fine. In fact, Doudou can perform such complex tasks many times. Even if they don't understand, they can directly generate results through the process. 】

"Then can they package it and give it to others? I feel like if this is made into a program, it might be a big hit."

[It seems. It doesn’t seem to work. ] Apollonia thought for a while, [This seems to be the biggest difference between artificial intelligence like Doudou and the 'program' you think of. Programs can be copied and pasted at will, after all, they are just a bunch of code. As long as the hardware can run, the program can be copied no matter how many times it is copied. But the situation of Doudou is completely different. Each Doudou needs special education, and each Doudou's abilities are learned. That is, they cannot be copied. 】

"So, it's impossible to equip everyone?"

[With a total population of hundreds of millions, of course you cannot afford it. And every Doudou is actually different, and the effects they achieve are also different. Well, this is actually quite difficult to arrange. Every beanie is different, which is always a problem. Another biggest problem is that Doudou and the others do not have enough computing power. Doudou's calculation power is quite poor, and they occasionally make miscalculations, and the coordination between multiple steps often makes mistakes. And the more steps there are, the greater the chance of error. 】

"Then I don't seem to notice it usually?"

[Because Doudou actually does not rely particularly on division of labor and cooperation, each of them basically produces finished products directly. For example, when drawing on film, they just draw on their own frame to create a relatively complete composition. In fact, it has nothing to do with the entire project. They are only responsible for this part of their own work. If the work itself is on film, then it really isn't a big problem. After all, it’s normal for film to have flaws. But if they are asked to calculate the complexity during the calculation, I am afraid that if they make a mistake in calculating a decimal point, it will be completely wrong. 】

"It seems that this is not alarmist." Shangluo pressed his forehead, "I think they can indeed make such a mistake. Indeed, they can."

[But. What I want to say is, but. ] Apollonia added, [I seem to have noticed this. I have observed the history of technological development over there. It seems that this kind of 'general artificial intelligence' is one of the ultimate goals you are pursuing. However, with almost no large-scale integrated circuits built and computing power basically relying on mechanical computers, there is already such a "general artificial intelligence" but it still has no computing power. This seems to be a step to reach a very powerful place. 】

"Ah Chip, I think now there will be problems if the production capacity of the chip is not good, because it will be difficult to train Doudou who can dance. But this way, it doesn't seem to be a big problem? Just equip everyone with different Doudou. . If you need translators, equip them with translator beans. If you need explanation beans, equip them with explanation beans. Well, it’s true. It’s not bad, but the situation may be a little strange.”
