❌ TỪ VỰNG BAND 7 TOPIC ROBOTS ❌

- Artificial intelligence (n): Trí tuệ nhân tạo
- Sophisticated (adj): Tinh vi, tỉ mỉ
- Domestic tasks (n): Việc nhà
- Debut (n): Sự xuất hiện lần đầu tiên trước công chúng
- Humanoid (n): Rô bốt hình người
- Personality trait (n): Tính cách
- Important figure (n): Nhân vật quan trọng
- Strike up conversations (v): Bắt chuyện
- Era (n): Kỷ nguyên
- Demanding job (n): Công việc đòi hỏi cao
- Peforming surgery (v): Thực hiện phẫu thuật
- Adverse effect (n): Hệ lụy tiêu cực
- Human labor (n): Nhân lực lao động
- Manufacturing zones (n): Các khu chế xuất
- Labor-intensive (adj): (Chỉ công việc) Cần nhiều lao động
- Automaton (n): Rô-bốt

Part 1
Are you interested in robots? (Bạn có hứng thú với rô-bốt không?)
(Answer) One hundred percent yes, I have always taken an avid interest in all kinds of technological innovations and artificial intelligence is no exception. (Reason) I think robots with extremely enormous memory are getting more sophisticated and they will soon be a tool that can help humans with a lot of things such as domestic tasks or even replace people in workplace.

Part 2
Describe a technological application that you are impressed with. (Mô tả một ứng dụng công nghệ mà bạn ấn tượng)
(Answer) Today I would like to talk about a robot which made its debut on a daily news program that I saw a couple of weeks ago.
(Reason) The news was the introduction of a humanoid named Sophia - the first robot citizen of the world. Sophia was developed by a robotics company that is best known for its development of human-shaped robots with artificial intelligence. (Example) She is built based on basic human’s personality traits such as creativity, empathy, and compassion. She had the chance to talk to many different important figures in the field of technology. During every talk, she was interviewed as a human being, she knew how to strike up conversations with the hosts and I was totally impressed with the things that she could do. She could show different emotions on her face, imitate human gestures and even facial expressions.
(Example) Another intersting thing about Sophia is that she said she was the first robot to be on the cover for ELLE Brazil, a well-known magazine. She was also the focus of the world’s media as she announced that she would destroy humandkind. Honestly, I think Sophia would be the beginning of a new era when automation could do demanding jobs such as teaching people languages or peforming surgeries. Many people have raised concern about the adverse effects of artificial intelligence when they enter the workforce, but I reckon that it will be a great help to humans in the near future.

4. the potential risks and rewards 潛在的風險和回報
5. artificial intelligence 人工智能

★★★★★★★★★★★★

The Chinese entrepreneur said he was "quite optimistic" about AI and thought it was nothing for "street smart" people like them to be scared of. "I don't know man, that's like famous last words," responded Tesla's chief.

在上海舉行的世界人工智能大會上，馬雲表示，他對於人工智能「較為樂觀」，並且認為像他們這樣有「生活智慧」的人不應該害怕。而特斯拉創始人馬斯克卻說：「兄弟，我不確定，但是這聽起來像那種著名的最後遺言。」

The two did, however, agree on one topic: that one of the biggest problems the world is facing is population collapse. Their 45-minute conversation kicked off the World AI Conference (WAIC), which ties into China's goal of overtaking the US to become the world's leading artificial intelligence innovator by 2030.

不過，作為當今世界其中兩個最有影響力的科技產業領袖，兩人在一個問題上倒是有共識：世界面監的其中一個最大問題是人口的萎縮。馬雲和馬斯克進行的45分鐘對話，成為世界人工智能大會的開場。這次會議契合了中國想要在2030年之前取代美國領導世界人工智能革新的目標。

9. population decline 人口下降
10. kick off 開始
11. tie into 結合成一體，（使）配合得當，（使）有聯繫
12. leading artificial intelligence innovator 領先/領導的人工智能創新者

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Mr. Ma focused much of his comments on how machine learning could act as a force for good. He said it was something "to embrace" and would deliver fresh insights into how people think. "When human beings understand ourselves better, then we can improve the world better," he explained. Furthermore, he predicted AI would help create new kinds of jobs, which would require less of our time and be centred on creative tasks

馬雲認為，有學習功能的機器如何能夠成為一種正面的力量。他說，這是一件值得「歡迎」的事情，能夠給人們帶來新的想法。「當我們人類更加了解自己的時候，我們就能夠讓世界變得更好，」他說。除此之外，馬雲預言，人工智能將會創造更多新的工種，從而節省我們的時間，將人類可以更集中於創造性的工作。

13. focus (sth) on sb/sth 集中，特別關注
14. a force for good 善良力量
15. insight into 對….深刻的見解

★★★★★★★★★★★★

By contrast, Mr. Musk suggested that mass unemployment was a real concern. "AI will make jobs kind of pointless," he claimed. "Probably the last job that will remain will be writing AI, and then eventually, the AI will just write its own software."He added that there was a risk that human civilization could come to an end and ultimately be seen as a staging post for a superior type of life.

相反，馬斯克則認為，大規模失業將會是一個實實在在的問題。「人工智能會令職位變得有點無意義，」馬斯克說。「很可能最後剩下的工種就是給AI寫程序，然後最終，AI還是自己編寫自己的軟件。」馬斯克還表示，人類文明可能因此而終結，並且最終將成為更高級生命體的墊腳石。

16. mass unemployment 大規模失業
17. a real concern 實實在在的問題
18. make…pointless 令…變得無意義
19. come to an end 終結
20. staging post （長途旅行的）中途站

To avoid such a fate, he said we needed to find a way to connect our brains to computers so that we could "go along for the ride with AI" - something he is trying to achieve via one of his latest start-ups. Otherwise, he cautioned, AI would become weary of trying to communicate with humans, as we would be much slower thinkers in comparison.

馬斯克表示，為了避免這樣一種命運，我們需要找到一種方法將我們的大腦連接到電腦上，讓我們能夠「跟著AI走」——他正在試圖通過一家他最新建立的初創公司做到這一點。否則，他警告說，AI將會對試圖與人類溝通感到厭倦，因為相比之下我們的思考會比電腦慢得多。

21. to avoid such a fate 避免這樣一種命運
22. go along for the ride 跟著走；搭順風車；湊熱鬧
23. be weary of 厭煩，不耐煩；倦

★★★★★★★★★★★★

By contrast, Mr. Ma acknowledged that AI could now beat humans at games like chess and Go, but claimed computers would only be one of several intelligent tools that we would develop in time. Although Mr. Ma acknowledged that we needed to find ways to become "more creative and constructive", he concluded that "my view is that [a] computer may be clever, but human beings are much smarter".

相反，馬雲則認為，雖然AI現在可能在象棋和「精靈寶可夢」（Pokemon Go）等遊戲當中擊敗人類，但是他堅持認為，電腦最終只會是我們發展的多種智能工具之一。雖然馬雲承認，我們需要尋找方法來變得「更加有創造力和建設性」，但是他斷定，「我的觀點是電腦可能很聰明，但是人類還是會聰明得多。

24. acknowledge 承認；認可…屬實或存在
25. more creative and constructive 更具創造性和建設性

Mr. Musk responded: "Yeah, definitely not.
馬斯克對此回應說：「好吧，肯定不是。」

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Towards the end of the event the two men came together on one point - that concerns about overpopulation were misguided." Assuming... there's a benevolent future with AI, I think that the biggest problem the world will face in 20 years is population collapse," said Mr. Musk."I want to emphasize this, the biggest issue in 20 years will be population collapse, not explosion collapse." Mr. Ma said he was absolutely in agreement.

到最後，馬斯克和馬雲在一件事情上的觀點是一致的——對人口過剩的擔憂是一種誤解。馬斯克說：「假設……AI能帶來一個美好的未來的話，我認為20年後的世界面臨的最大問題將會是人口銳減。」「我想強調這一點，20年後的最大問題將會是人口銳減，不是人口爆炸。」馬雲表示，他對此完全同意。

26. come together on... 在…的觀點是一致的
27. misguide 誤導
28. a benevolent future with 美好/仁慈的未來
29. population collapse 人口銳減
30. be in agreement 同意

This is collaboration music video with art installation ”Karaoke with Artificial life" that Emi Kusano has been created.

このMVはArt Hack Dayで草野絵美が一ヶ月かけて製作した作品、人工生命カラオケ『Singing Dream』のコンセプトを映像化したコラボレーションです。

“Sining Dream” (2018)

The time is the future. Stored for historical documentation, the communication karaoke machine that took the 1980s by storm, had never been experienced by anyone existing in the now. One day, a sudden phenomena had occurred through the machine’s network, it had grown autonomy in the machine. The machine, now with a heart, had started to self-express and reject simple requests of singing pop songs or being possessed by human beings. With the newly found passion of the karaoke machine, its codes and circuit boards grow and multiply like roots and leaves of a tree. As if it is celebrating its own birth, it sings “Happy Birthday” on repeat. It uses this most sung song around the world, utilizes it as group intelligence music, and aims for the survival of species. It creates its own lyrics, and projects its dreams on the monitor to make communication. It receives inspiration from the outside world, and begins to sublimate its own creations. When humans come close, it allures it by camouflaging itself to a normal karaoke. In this work, the possibilities of a future wherein from a collection of human created technology and information, life will be born, and a new seed to prosper will be created is explored with a science fiction touch.

時は近未来。歴史的資料として保管された、通信カラオケマシンは現存する人類の誰もが体験したことがない1980年代に一線で活躍していたものだ。ある日、ネットワークを介して機械の中で突然変異がおこり、マシンの中に自律性が芽生えた。心をもったマシンはヒットソングを歌わされたり人類から所有されることを拒み、自己表現し始める。
カラオケマシンの想いと共に、機械の中を張り巡らせるコードや基板は、根と葉のごとく成長、増殖し始めた。自己の誕生を祝うかのように「Happy Birthday」を歌い続ける。
世界で一番歌われているであろうこの曲を、群知能音楽として活用し、種の生き残りを目論む。自ら生成した歌詞、夢をモニターに投影しながらコミュニケーションをとる。
外界からインスピレーションをうけながら、自らのクリエーションを昇華し始める。人間が近づくと、普通のカラオケのようにカモフラージュしてそそのかす。
本作品では、人類発のテクノロジーや情報の集合体から、生命が誕生し、新たな種を繁栄しようとする未来がくるかもしれないと、人工生命をSF的に表現した。
