Ask HN：Hacker News 对未来的愿景是什么？
5 分•作者: gooob•9 个月前
周末到了，我们来头脑风暴一下。关于人类困境以及我们如何前进，你最关心的是什么？
我们都看到，似乎几乎所有人都疯了，或者至少叙事是这么描绘的。为什么公司、政府和其他组织会做这么愚蠢的事情？
我们已经制造出能够“思考”的机器，它们通过表达有意义的语言结构来实现这一点。事实上，大型语言模型（LLM）的神经网络中似乎嵌入了实际的语义和逻辑结构。好吧，让我们保持清醒的头脑，记住其中涉及的数学知识，放松一下，思考一下我们真正想要什么（以及“我们”到底是什么）。我们有一天会超越语言吗？我知道我正在用语言给你打这段消息，希望这种交流方式会过时。但那会是什么样子呢？我知道目前形式的人类语言是严重受限的。
如果我们想要设计某种未来的交流协议和方法，让我们思考一下需要交流什么类型的事情？例如，如今的“新闻”是什么？它仅仅是日出的视频流吗？好吧，这需要很长时间才能实现。与此同时，它可能应该像这样：“是的，又是新的一天，人类正在努力工作，为混乱带来秩序，让每个人都过得更好”。
从更具体的角度来看，我想说我们已经达到了可以超越目前“工作”概念的阶段。我们可以超越为了金钱利益而做事的局限性，看到如果存在某些形式的实体组织和资源分配，某些系统可以得到更好的实施。如果一家公司由计算机运营，它是什么？它服务于什么？我的意思是，建议一些业务领域重叠的大公司应该整合他们的运营听起来很傻，但我们都知道，在很多情况下，事情应该朝着这个方向发展。
所以，是的，你对未来的愿景是什么？

It's the weekend. Let's do some brainstorming. What's forefront on your mind with regards to the human predicament, and how we move forward?
We all see that it seems pretty much everyone has gone insane, or at least that's what the narrative portrays. Why are companies, governments, and other organizations doing such stupid things?
So we've made machines that can appear to "think", by articulating linguistic constructs that make sense. In fact, there appears to be actual semantic and logical structure embedded within the neural networks of LLMs. Ok, let's keep our heads on straight, keep in mind the mathematics involved, chill out, and just think about what it is that we actually want (and what "we" are, for that matter). Are we going to someday transcend language? I'm aware that I'm typing this message out to you, using language, with hopes that this form of communication will become obsolete. But what will that look like? I know that human language in it's current form is severely limited.
If we're to design some future communication protocol and methodology, let's contemplate what types of things even need to be communicated? For example, what is "the news" nowadays? Could it be simply a video stream of the sunrise? Well it would take a long time to get there. In the meantime, it should probably be something like "yeah, it's another day, and humans are doing the work necessary to put order to chaos and make things better for everyone".<p>From a more concrete perspective, I'd say that we've reached the point when we can transcend the idea of what "work" is currently. We can see beyond the limited view of doing things for monetary profit, and see that certain systems could be implemented much better if there were certain forms of entity-organization and resource-allocation at play. What is a company if it's ran by a computer? What does it serve? I mean, it sounds silly to suggest some big companies with overlapping domains of operation should consolidate their operations, but we all know that that's where things should be headed in many cases.<p>So yeah, what's your vision for the future?
