Seven trends in the development of artificial intelligence

It is expected to "show its talents" in the fields of network security and intelligent driving

Artificial intelligence has become one of the most revolutionary technologies in human history. "Artificial intelligence is one of the most important technologies we as humans are working on. Its impact on human civilization will be more profound than fire or electricity". In January 2020, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said so in an interview at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Enhance human labor skills

There has been concern that machines or robots will replace human labor and may even render some jobs redundant. But people will also increasingly find that humans can use machines to improve their skills.

For example, the marketing department has become accustomed to using tools to help determine which potential customers are more worthy of attention; in the field of engineering, artificial intelligence tools provide maintenance forecasts, allowing people to know in advance when machines need to be repaired; more and more knowledge-based industries such as law Intelligent use of artificial intelligence tools to help people sort through the ever-growing amount of available data to find the information needed to complete a specific task.

All in all, in almost every career field, a variety of smart tools and services are emerging to help people do their jobs more efficiently. In 2022, the connection between artificial intelligence and people's daily life will become closer.

The United States "Forbes" website pointed out in a recent report that although it is currently difficult to imagine the impact of autonomous decision-making by machines, it is certain that when the wheel of time reaches 2022, new breakthroughs and developments in the field of artificial intelligence will continue. To broaden the boundaries of our imagination, it will "show its talents" in 7 major fields.

Bigger and better language modeling

Language modeling allows machines to interact with humans in a language that humans understand, and even convert human natural language into executable programs and computer codes.

In mid-2020, the artificial intelligence company OpenAI released the third-generation language prediction model GPT-3, which is the most advanced and largest language model created by scientists so far. It consists of about 175 billion "parameters". These "parameters" are Variables and data points that machines use to process language.

As we all know, OpenAI is developing a more powerful successor GPT-4. While the details have yet to be confirmed, some estimate it could contain as many as 100 trillion parameters (as many synapses in the human brain). In theory, it's a big step closer to creating language and having conversations that humans can't tell the difference. And, it also gets better at creating computer code.

Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity

In January this year, the World Economic Forum released the "Global Risk Landscape Report 2021", arguing that cybersecurity risk is a major risk that the world will face in the future.

As machines increasingly take over people's lives, hacking and cybercrime will inevitably become a bigger problem, and this is where artificial intelligence can "play its game".

Artificial intelligence is changing the rules of the game in cybersecurity. By analyzing network traffic and identifying malicious applications, intelligent algorithms will play an increasing role in protecting humans from cybersecurity threats. In 2022, the most important applications of artificial intelligence may appear in this field. Artificial intelligence may be able to dramatically speed up response times by providing instant insights into threat intelligence compiled from millions of research reports, blogs and news reports.
