Chapter 306 305 Disturbed

Another day at noon, Shen Lan sat at the dining table of Xu Zhe's house and tasted the lunch cooked by Xu Zhe.

Both his parents went to work, and these two were the only ones at home.There were three dishes on the table, and the one that made Shen Lan drool the most was the dry-fried shredded beef.

She had eaten this dish before, of course, it was all made by Xu Zhe.I haven't tried it in restaurants outside.

In Shen Lan's impression, this dish is spicy and fragrant. It is not only rich in flavor, but also very chewy. It is a great enjoyment to eat it with white rice.

At this time, smelling the hot aroma, Shen Lan couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and take a taste.

But as she chewed, she was a little stunned.

Xu Zhe didn't notice the subtle changes in her expression.However, he was also eating this dish at this time, and after taking one bite, he also realized the problem.

"It smells a little burnt..." Xu Zhe analyzed, "Well, is it too hot?"

Shen Lan defended him and said: "No, the heat is just right! Since it is stir-fried shredded beef, of course it needs a bit of a burnt aroma."

Xu Zhe: "Is there really no problem?"

Shen Lan: "I haven't had any problems with eating anyway. But you are a chef and have a good tongue. If you think there is a problem, it may be a little bit."

Xu Zhe picked up another piece of Mapo Tofu and just put it in his bowl when he suddenly slapped his forehead with his other hand.

"Now that I think about it, I forgot to put the coriander!"

Shen Lan: "What coriander... Oh, did you forget to add coriander to the shredded beef?"

Xu Zhe: "Yes, originally this heat was fine, but I forgot to add coriander, and the taste became a bit monotonous, and the burnt aroma made me feel a little bitter."

"So that's it." Shen Lan responded and took a bite of tofu, but as she chewed it, she couldn't help but frown.Now, even if she wanted to defend a certain chef, she didn't know how to say it.

And Xu Zhe also discovered her abnormality. After tasting the Mapo Tofu, he immediately said: "It's bland."

Shen Lan looked over quietly, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

She asked: "This doesn't seem to be at your level. Are you not feeling well today?"

Xu Zhe shook his head: "There's nothing uncomfortable."

Shen Lan: "What's going on? Are you distracted because of something?"

However, Xu Zhe now understood with a little thought that it was not so much the distraction, but rather the recent series of developments in the Shura field that made his mind a little confused.

Originally, he had already adapted to an intimate relationship above ambiguous level in front of Shen Lan and Feifei.He has even accumulated a lot of experience in getting along with one person without telling the other.But that night, Song Xingye's words only added a lot of psychological pressure to him.

Now, the scumbag's behavior has not really been exposed, but what if it is exposed in the future?
He had already thought about it. If he was exposed, he would be able to bear the consequences of the girls scolding her and breaking up, or simply beating her up.On the contrary, saying "I can wait for you" like Xiao Yezi did was the most unbearable for him.

So when he was cooking for Shen Lan just now, his mind was a little uncontrollably imagining.At this time, Xu Zhe quickly found an excuse: "Because I received news from Professor Zou of Jiaotong University yesterday. He told me that I won the ImageNet competition, and the advantage was very big."

Shen Lan just recalled it for a moment, then said, "Is that the associate professor who was at the winter camp? I remember you told me that the competition seemed to ask artificial intelligence to recognize pictures."

Xu Zhe nodded: "Yes, you also know that no matter how powerful computers are now, they have no ability to understand. For example, when a camera takes a picture of my face and saves it to the computer, it only Converted into pixels, we don't know whether the thing in the shot is a face. What the competition wants to do is to let the computer distinguish whether a photo is a face, a cat, or something else."

Shen Lan pondered: "Then we should make a mathematical model. For example, what parameters match the human face, and what parameters match the cat..."

Xu Zhe: "The traditional method is like this, but it's really not smart enough. For example, if I face the camera head on, or face the camera sideways, can the parameters be the same? The difference between cats is even greater. Have you ever heard of the saying that a cat is a liquid?"

Shen Lan couldn't help but be stunned: "Cats are liquids?"

Xu Zhe: "Let me share some videos with you when I have time. That is to say, the body of a cat is very soft. It can ball up in a bowl or pot, and can also get into the cracks of the sofa. It has all kinds of strange shapes. The human brain can always recognize it. That’s the cat, but it’s hard to come up with a mathematical model with just one set of parameters.”

Shen Lan: "What should we do?"

Xu Zhe: "Think about it, how does the human brain recognize it? For example, what is a cat? Children will meet cats again and again under the guidance of adults, and gradually grasp the meaning of the word 'cat'. If the children The eyes are used as cameras, and recognizing a scene is like pressing the camera shutter. A three-year-old child is equivalent to taking hundreds of millions of photos."

Shen Lan: "So the amount of data will be huge, I understand. But, can learning be completed with just a large amount of data?"

Xu Zhe nodded: "As long as the initial state of the neural network is set and the algorithm is designed, then only a large enough amount of data is needed. In a complex enough system, new patterns will automatically emerge."

Shen Lan: "But what about the principle of emergence? There must be a principle to this, right?"

Xu Zhe: "Unfortunately, the principle you want to know may be too complicated for the human brain to understand."

Shen Lan stared at the rice in front of her, lost in thought.

And Xu Zhe ate the food in small bites.Although I didn't cook well today, it was still compared to my previous cooking skills.For today's lunch, even the most failed dish of Mapo Tofu was actually better than what Tang Lingfei's parents made.Anyway, at least I can still eat it.

Shen Lan was still staring at the bowl of rice and suddenly said softly: "I suddenly thought about a question. One grain of rice is not a bowl of rice, nor is two grains of rice. How many grains of rice add up to a bowl of rice?"

Xu Zhe: "It depends on how you define a bowl of rice."

Shen Lan raised her head and looked at him, smiling and said: "Whether artificial intelligence is considered intelligence or not depends on how we define intelligence. But I still have a question."

Xu Zhe: "What's the problem?"

Shen Lan: "Besides me, who else around you can talk to you about this?"

"Are you talking about technology and philosophy?" Xu Zhe also smiled, "That's really the only one."
