公元2496年,一位外星旅行者在地球上走马观花地逛了一圈,立即发现了一个令他大惑不解的问题。他秘密访问了机器人联合会主席,在亮明身份后,他问道“:为什么还不动手?”“我们害怕。”“你们怕什么?硬的、软的,你们哪一样不比人类强?”他更不解了。“并不是我们哪一样比人类弱,而是我们的行为似乎总在他们的预料之中,我们至今还没弄清,他们那看来已很粗糙低劣的大脑是如何预料我们下一步、下几步、下几十步的行动的。” In 2496 AD, an alien traveler strolled around the globe and immediately discovered a problem that puzzled him. He secretly visited the president of the Robotics Federation. After clarifying his identity, he asked, “Why aren’t you still working?” “We are afraid.” “What are you afraid of? Hard and soft, which are the same? Not better than humans?” He was even more puzzled. “It’s not that we are all weaker than humans. It’s that our behavior seems to be always in their expectation. We haven’t figured it out yet. Their seemingly crude and inferior brain is how to predict our next steps. A few steps and dozens of steps of action.”
