#Listen to the talk: AI時代的英語學習力

 

After listening to this speech, I have some expectations for future technology, but at the same time I am worried, because AI can improve our efficiency and production value, but because Neuralink is developing a brain-computer interface, although it can only be done by humans at present the brain controls the computer mouse, and external knowledge cannot be implanted into the brain yet. However, what we can think about is that when the brain-computer interface can be realized, what is the difference between the human brain and the computer? What is the meaning of human existence? At the beginning, the speaker mentioned that what we should think about is "not which job will be replaced by AI, but which part of your field will be replaced by AI." Everyone has to think about how their own field can compete with AI. Combining tools, starting from its own field, because it is just a tool, the speaker introduced many websites in the speech, these websites can help improve our efficiency, and also remind us that if AI can do better than us, then we will don't do this part. Only by doing what AI can't do can you create your own value and avoid being completely replaced by AI. It also illustrates the importance of learning English.  Although AI is currently very powerful in translation, he believes that the importance of English will only increase in the short term and may decrease in the long term, because English is an indispensable medium for collaboration with AICG and obtaining the latest information, and major LLMs all speak English, so English is still necessary to learn in the short term, and all language learning principles remain unchanged, but the originally difficult directions will become easier. As long as the tools get better, hard work is still indispensable, but the reason why it is not other languages ​​is that language learning is never just about manpower, it also depends on the application coverage and national strength. Finally, he also reminded the audience that critical thinking is the most important thing for human beings next ability, things or cognitions that cannot be copied and pasted, such as experiential marketing, will be the most valuable, and education is no longer based on knowledge, but on adapting ability. His speech gave me a new understanding. Start thinking of ways to create your own differences, and lifelong learning and flexible adaptation will be more important in the changing future.

聽完這一場演講之後，讓我對於未來的技術有些期待，卻同時也感到擔憂，因為AI可以提高我們的效率、產值，但因為Neuralink正在研發腦機接口，雖然目前只能做到由人腦控制電腦的鼠標，還無法將外面的知識植入到腦袋裡，不過我們可以思考的是當腦機接口可以實現的那一天，人腦和電腦有什麼區別？人存在的意義又是什麼？在一開始時，講者便提到我們應該思考的是「不是哪個工作會被AI取代，而是你的領域的哪個部分會被AI取代」，每個人要去想自己的領域要怎麼跟AI工具進行結合，從自己的領域出發，因為它只是一個工具，他在演講中介紹了許多網站，這些網站可以幫助提升我們的效率，同時也提醒我們如果AI做得比我們好，那我們就不要做這個部分，去做AI不能做的，才能創造自己的價值，避免完全被AI取代，更說明了學習英文的重要性，雖然目前AI對於翻譯方面是很強的，但他認為英文的重要性短期只會增加，長期可能減少，因為英文是與AICG協作與取得最新資訊所不可或缺的媒介，主要的LLM都講英文，因此短期內英文仍然是必須學習的，而所有的語言學習原則不變，但原本較為困難的方向會變簡單一些，只有工具變好，努力依然不可少，但為什麼不是其他語言的原因是語言學習從來不只是人力，也要看運用涵蓋度與國力，最後他也提醒了聽眾批判性思考是人類接下來最重要的能力，沒辦法複製貼上的事務或認知，例如體驗式行銷，會最有價值，且教育不再基於知識，而是adapting ability，他的這一場演講令我有了新的體悟，要開始想辦法創造自己的差異，且終身學習與彈性適應在變動的未來更加重要。
