中國發展高層論壇:馬雲對話扎克伯格

The three-day China Development Forum 2016 kicked off in Beijing.

爲期三天的"中國發展高層論壇2016"近日在北京開幕。

Internet tycoons had heated discussions on the promise of Artificial intelligence (AI) following the historic victory earlier this month for Google Inc's AI-powered AlphaGo over South Korean Go master Lee Se-dol.

由於本月初谷歌人工智能程序AlphaGo對弈韓國圍棋大師李世石取得歷史性的勝利，互聯網巨頭們就人工智能的前景展開了熱烈討論。

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook Inc, said at the forum that "Artificial intelligence will understand senses, such as vision and hearing, and grasp language better than human beings over the next five to 10 years."

臉書首席執行官扎克伯格在論壇上表示，"人工智能將在未來5至10年內理解視覺和聽覺等感覺，並能比人類更好地掌握語言。"

Lei Jun, founder and chairman of Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi Corp, agreed, describing the win as a breakthrough in artificial intelligence.

智能手機巨頭小米創始人雷軍同意此觀點，將AlphaGo的取勝描述爲人工智能領域的突破。

"It struck me as shocking news. As a big fan of Go, I never expected AI to be able to beat a human champion at the current stage of development since it's a pretty complicated game," he said. He predicted that "fueled by this victory, capital and talent will flood into the AI sector".

雷軍表示：“這是一個使我震驚的消息。作爲一名圍棋的忠實愛好者，我從來沒有想到人工智能在當前階段可以擊敗一個人類冠軍，因爲這是一項非常複雜的棋類運動。”

Despite the breakthrough, Jack Ma, chairman of Alibaba Group, said there was no need for human beings to fear machines.

儘管人工智能取得了突破，阿里巴巴集團董事局主席馬雲卻認爲，人類不需要懼怕機器。

"Machines will be stronger and smarter than human beings, but they will never be wiser," he said, "because one thing's for sure: Wisdom, soul and heart are things that only human beings possess, and machines can never enjoy failure, success, friendship or love."

"我認爲機器會比人類更強大、更智能，但絕不會比人類更睿智。"馬雲如是說。“因爲有一件事是肯定的：智慧、靈魂和心靈都是人類所擁有的東西，而機器永遠不能享受失敗、成功、友誼或愛情。”

At the forum, tech entrepreneurs also shared their views on virtual reality, which they said will be the most important computing platform over the next five to 10 years.

在該論壇上，科技創業者們也分享了他們對虛擬現實的看法。他們紛紛表示，在未來5至10年，虛擬現實將是最重要的計算平臺。
