文本分析:
[What]本節(jié)課包含Starting ut和 Understanding ideas兩部分。
Starting ut是導(dǎo)入部分,首先要求學(xué)生觀看一段“關(guān)于未來的預(yù)言”的視頻,然后呈現(xiàn)四張科幻電影《星際穿越》《阿凡達(dá)》《頭號玩家X》《機(jī)器人總動員》的海報(bào)。
Understanding ideas是一篇論壇專題討論,介紹了三位發(fā)帖人對于人工智能的不同看法。第一位發(fā)帖人Millenniumbutterfly認(rèn)為人工智能的發(fā)展給人們的日常生活帶來了很多便利;第二位發(fā)帖人Ppkid覺得目前正在使用的人工智能尚無獨(dú)立思考能力,不會給人類帶來威脅,但是將來真正能夠獨(dú)立思考的人工智能可能會使人類面臨被清掃的風(fēng)險(xiǎn);第三位發(fā)帖人Pink_ haze認(rèn)為人工智能是人類歷史上最大的飛躍,人們應(yīng)該接受并對它加以規(guī)范。
[Why]獲悉人工智能的發(fā)展史,思考人工智能的利弊,學(xué)會辯證地看待人工智能技術(shù),樹立尊重科學(xué)和為人類發(fā)展做貢獻(xiàn)的意識。
[Hw]論壇討論話題具有新穎性和前瞻性,關(guān)注社會和全球熱點(diǎn),通過三個不同的觀點(diǎn)展開描述,能很好地引發(fā)學(xué)生多維度感受科技的巨大進(jìn)步并全面思考人工智能的利弊。文本語言地道,口語性較強(qiáng),無生僻詞匯,便于學(xué)生理解和復(fù)述。

人工智能(Artificial Intelligence),英文縮寫為AI。它是研究、開發(fā)用于模擬、延伸和擴(kuò)展人的智能的理論、方法、技術(shù)及應(yīng)用系統(tǒng)的一門新的技術(shù)科學(xué)。
人工智能是計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)的一個分支,它企圖了解智能的實(shí)質(zhì),并生產(chǎn)出一種新的能與人類智能相似的方式做出反應(yīng)的智能機(jī)器,該領(lǐng)域的研究包括機(jī)器人、語言識別、圖像識別、自然語言處理和專家系統(tǒng)等。人工智能從誕生以來,理論和技術(shù)日益成熟,應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域也在不斷擴(kuò)大,可以設(shè)想,未來人工智能帶來的科技產(chǎn)品,將會是人類智慧的“容器”。人工智能可以對人的意識、思維的信息過程進(jìn)行模擬。人工智能不是人的智能,但能像人那樣思考、也可能超過人的智能。
人工智能是一門極富挑戰(zhàn)性的科學(xué),從事這項(xiàng)工作的人必須懂得計(jì)算機(jī)知識、心理學(xué)和哲學(xué)。人工智能包括十分廣泛的科學(xué),由不同的領(lǐng)域組成,如機(jī)器學(xué)習(xí)、計(jì)算機(jī)視覺等等??偟恼f來,人工智能研究的一個主要目標(biāo)是使機(jī)器能夠勝任一些通常需要人類智能才能完成的復(fù)雜工作。但不同的時代、不同的人對這種“復(fù)雜工作”的理解是不同的。

Deepfake專指基于人工智能的人體圖像合成技術(shù),主要應(yīng)用于“換臉”,其在很多領(lǐng)域有積極的商業(yè)價值,但是一旦被“黑產(chǎn)”盯上用作牟利工具,則會給個人和社會帶來風(fēng)險(xiǎn)和挑戰(zhàn)。Deepfake于2017年年底首次出現(xiàn),隨著其技術(shù)的開源,合成剪輯視頻的數(shù)量不斷增長。要對付假視頻,就要在網(wǎng)絡(luò)海量信息中,快速找到虛假圖片,并對圖像識別后精準(zhǔn)提取其中語義,這也是目前人工智能算法上的核心研究發(fā)力點(diǎn)。
