Q3.
When you hear the words “Artificial intelligence”, what are the first four things that come to your mind?
- Computing Power
- Machine/Deep Learning requires huge computing power, which means tons of GPUs, to analyze the collected data and find the pattern.
- Training model
- There are lots of models like CNN, GAN, and Diffusion that are the kernel of AI’s brain.
- Magical Interaction
- Sometimes it’s just magic to use AI. In Midjourney, you could generate new pictures from the input; in ChatGPT, you could talk and ask questions to a smart robot. However, all of these are actually not magic shows but scientific experiments based on evolving training models and computing power.
- Future
- I firmly believe that AI will be more powerful and prevalent in the future. ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion are only the start of the AI generation. The pandora’s box just opened.
//Everyday AI Activity
Think about the devices and/or digital services you use daily.
- iPhone/MacBook:
- Siri: Smart AI assistance
- Office (Word, PPT, Excel)
- The embedded predictive text in Word is so convenient and productive.
- Chrome
- AI-powered recommendation algorithm enables personalized search results.
Magic Moment
I was surprised by the Album on my iPhone, which can recognize and categorize different people by their faces. The algorithm can even recognize faces in my painting and pair them with the corresponding people in real-life videos.
