Marvel's Return of the Inventor

With the release of this incredible achievement, everyone saw Yamato's achievements in the humanoid robot machinery industry.

A ride to the dust.

"Will the overall score surpass us?"

Some members of the Hua University of Science and Technology began to feel anxious.

It seems that the advantages that HuaTech has established in artificial skin have been lost in the fire-extinguishing project.

"The theme this time is bionics, which should not be surpassed for the time being."

After all, Zheng Xi is a three-time veteran and has a much better understanding of the competition than all the team members. Fire extinguishing is a regular event every year, and the theme is definitely not as good as artificial skin.

According to the scoring rules, the total score for the fire extinguishing project is only 25 points. Although Edo University has obvious advantages, it is difficult to close the gap of nearly 7 points in this single project.

Facts have proved that Zheng Xi's judgment was correct.

After the fire-fighting results were released, Edo University ranked first with 23.12 points, followed closely by Hua University of Science and Technology with 17.24. After the two rounds of results were added up, Hua University of Science and Technology still topped the list.

But Edo University, which made a comeback, has narrowed the gap to less than 2 points.

Later, there is another project that tests the intelligence of the robot. In order to keep the competition secret, it has not been officially announced yet.

But what is already known is that this project is the last major score project in this machine championship, with a total score of 75 points.

The current competition in intelligence in the robotics industry will eventually turn into a competition between intelligent systems.

In this regard, Hua Ke University has no advantage when facing Edo University. It is understandable how difficult it is to maintain a lead of less than 2 points.

On the day of the competition, the organizer invited Zheng Xi, the captain of the Chinese University of Science and Technology team who currently ranks first overall, to come on stage and choose a final competition event from four closed boxes.

It adds considerable randomness and topicality to this competition.

Because the competition events cannot be predicted in advance, each college team cannot engage in targeted research and development and can only try to be as comprehensive as possible.

Before the envelope in Zheng Xi's hand is opened, theoretically every team has a chance to advance to the semi-finals.

After all, every team that can participate in the competition has two skills, and there are so many directions to examine the intelligence of robots. What if a blind cat encounters a dead mouse and catches up with its own ace major?

Then pray.

Zheng Xi on the stage unhurriedly opened the envelope in his hand. The ultimate project was written on the envelope in multiple languages. Because the host city is in China, the first line was in Chinese.

"The Turing Test."

Facing the microphone, Zheng Xi read out these four words calmly as always.

"Fuck..."

Du Gui, who has participated in the development of most intelligent systems, was stunned on the spot.

The main content of the Turing test will not be described here.

But one thing is certain: over the years, no machine in the world has been able to pass the Turing test perfectly.

But as for the competition, whether it can pass the Turing test perfectly is not an issue that the organizers need to consider. They only need to formulate a reasonable set of rules so that robots can compete in this test.

The test method used in this competition is that in an isolated space, the organizer arranges a certain number of ordinary people and a robot. The tester is free to ask questions without being able to see the person being asked. After the question is finished, if the tester cannot accurately determine which of the robots is the robot, the robot passes the test.

Then, change the tester and continue asking questions.

This is repeated, and the number of times the robot passes the Turing test is the only criterion for scoring.

Generally speaking, the Turing test also has routines.

For example, the tester asked, "Have you had lunch?"

Both ordinary people and robots will answer, "Eat" or "Didn't eat".

But the tester continued to ask, "Have you had lunch?"

After repeating it two or three times, ordinary people will answer, "Didn't I say it before? Why do you still ask?"

The robot will be more honest and continue to answer "eat" or "didn't eat". In this way, the robot will be exposed.

The total score is 75 points. There are 10 testers, and each one who passes will get 7.5 points. As the testers are replaced, the difficulty and routines of the questions will become more and more difficult, and the chance of the robot passing will become smaller and smaller.

This test has high requirements on the robot's thinking ability. The robot's thinking ability is based on an intelligent system, so this test is indeed linked to intelligence.

The reason why Du Gui was lying was because HuaTech conducted a simple Turing test on Wall-E before participating in the competition.

Average grades.

"Don't worry. It is said that Edo University uses the Neumann architecture for its intelligent cores just like us. The Turing test is not easy to widen the gap." Another team member analyzed.

Today in the world, the architectures equipped with intelligent system chips are mainly divided into traditional architectures and brain-like driving architectures.

Among them, the Neumann architecture has the greatest advantages and is the most used among traditional architectures.

Although the brain-like architecture is more advanced and is also the main direction for the future development of artificial intelligence, the problem of imitating the synapses of the human brain has put the world in trouble. The overall research process is even more difficult and it is currently in its infancy. .

This kind of college student competition should not be on the scene.

Therefore, almost all representative teams will choose the mature and reliable Neumann structure. Compared with its biggest rival Edo University, even if Hua Ke University has no advantages, its disadvantages are not big.

In addition, Zheng Xi drew the Turing test, which basically everyone could not pass, which actually made this disadvantage even smaller.

"Yes, no wonder Captain Zheng is so calm."

As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. After being told this by his teammates, Du Gui suddenly realized.

Looking at the relaxed expressions of his teammates, Ding Sheng always felt that things were not that simple. Perhaps because he had stayed at Marvel for a long time, he thought that if this competition really ended like this, it would be too ordinary. .

Not scientific.

As the game progressed, the robots began to enter the isolation room and were questioned by the testers together with the humans.

The spectator representatives of each team also began to send back the results from the front line.

"Korea Institute of Science and Technology, 15 points."

This is the main competitor, and it appears that only two testers passed.

"Nanyang Polytechnic, 22.5 points."

This is a strong school in Asia-Pacific, so this result is not unexpected.

"University of Melbourne, Australia, 15 points."

The results of Australia's first brother are released, and combined with the results of the first two rounds, it is basically announced that he will miss the International Cup.

"Asan Institute of Technology, 22.5 points."

Oops, Asan has something, but the points in front are too wide, and he has no hope of advancement.

At present, all representative teams have only passed two or three rounds of the Turing test.

This result is all because the organizers, in order not to embarrass the major teams, set the questions in the first round relatively simply and without any routines, and gave them away for free.

"Edo University, 22.5 points."

Well, Yamato, which worries Hua Ke the most, also failed to break through the fourth round.

All the teams are looking in the direction of the Huake University team. Next, their results will determine the championship and the semi-finals.

Under the spotlight, the team headed by Zheng Xi strode to the Turing test isolation room with WALL-E.

......

"Chinese Academy of Sciences University, 22.5 points."

Yay

The results are out, everyone is excited, the championship is won

However...

Yes, just as Ding Sheng expected, in less than an hour, "however" came.

......

"Huaqing University, 67.5 points"
