I thought of this post as "The Story of Jarvis - The Story of My Love and Killing with My Assistant", but that was when I only saw half of the movie and the plot was getting better at the beginning, after all When the plot is only halfway through, the interaction between the male protagonist Gray and STEM is really loving. The story of the paralyzed and frustrated male protagonist regaining a new life and using artificial intelligence to beat the gang for revenge is old-fashioned but really touching. At least at the time, I hoped for a moment that the plot was that simple. But in the second half of the story, things are really not that simple. As the truth gradually surfaced, I took a deep breath and also felt a bit of horror because I thought of an event that happened simultaneously in reality.
This happened today, and because it is inexplicably close to the theme of "Upgrade", I have a stronger sense of immersion in the movie. But things started a few days ago.
Affected by the epidemic, I have been resting at home recently. Just less than a week ago, my headphone audio cable broke. So I ordered a new one from JD.com, and it happened to be the last one in the store. However, after the order was placed, Jingdong Logistics did not deliver, and the audio cable always stopped in Wuhan, the place of origin. After I arrived at the scheduled time, I reminded JD Logistics for an order. The customer service told me by phone that my order did not leave the place of origin. They would try to adjust the order for me within two days and notify me by phone. However, two days passed and no one was there. Give me a return visit, and the courier information has not been updated, so I chose to return it this morning. The order shows that it is being intercepted, and the return will be processed only after the interception is successful. I waited from morning to noon, the system has been intercepting, and there is no new progress in the return details. So in the afternoon, I had to buy the same one from Tmall at a higher price, thinking that when Tmall shipped the goods, even if the return of Jingdong failed, I could ask customer service to force it. Not surprisingly, the Tmall one was shipped soon, but at this moment something magical happened. When I switched back from Tmall to JD.com, JD Logistics showed that my audio cable that was stuck at the place of shipment was actually It has been sent to Beijing, and is being sent to Qingdao from the transit station in Beijing? ! I'm surprised, considering that JD.com's orders are cheaper than Tmall's, so I want to keep JD.com's orders and go to cancel Tmall's orders instead. But the top priority is to cancel the return process of JD.com. At this time, I found out that the return process of JD.com cannot be ended manually. At Jack Ma’s house, whenever you want to cancel the return and refund process, as long as the return is not completed, you only need to click “Revocation Application”. But in JD.com, when I return it, everything is handled by the order system in the background, and I don't even have the right to "cancel the return". When there are too many orders in the system or because other things can't handle it, the return will always stop in the process of "intercepting the order", and in this process, I can't decide anything. I couldn't decide whether to continue the return or cancel the return because of the unexpected event. I was like Gray who lost his self-control in the movie. At that moment, I suddenly felt panic. The instinct to save money told me that I should cancel the JD.com refund process in time, but no matter how I refreshed it, the progress ended up at "trying to intercept the order", and I was afraid that the order that finally started to work normally would be disrupted by my return. It's gone, but no matter how desperate I am, I can't find any button like "Cancel Request". I reported this to the store's customer service, and the customer service just told me to wait for the system to automatically intercept it successfully. I ask the online human customer of JD.com The server reported this matter, and when the human customer service with the job number was connected, she repeated inexplicable words without emotion like a machine, and kept repeating "order status [locked]" and "initiating interception", completely ignoring my complaint. At that time, after watching the movie, I started to feel a chill down my spine.
What are you thinking when you see this? (laughs) In fact, I don't mean to criticize JD.com, and I'm not a conspiracy theorist at all. On the contrary, I always think that JD.com's shopping experience is better than Taobao and Tmall. JD.com's UI interface is more concise, and the shopping process is more worry-free. I never have to worry about any coupons hidden in the depths of the store. I didn't find it. All I have to do is select the favorite products, place an order, and receive the goods the next day. , everything goes smoothly. I even think that JD.com is smarter than Jack Ma’s house. From operation logic to logistics system, JD.com is like a complete closed loop. The only thing users have to do is to confirm the order. I also know that this whole incident is just an unparalleled coincidence, because it was during the epidemic and the delivery place was Wuhan, so there has been no progress, and Jingdong Logistics completed the adjustment of the goods for me after two days of delay because of the large order volume. , so that the place of shipment was transferred from Wuhan to Beijing, and it happened that after I chose to return the goods, the crowded transmission stream made the system unable to take care of my operation, and more coincidentally, all this happened when I went from Tmall to After ordering the same item. At the time of writing this review, I had already completed the "cancellation of the return", when I did not respond to customer service for two minutes, and when I re-entered, JD.com rescheduled another customer service to access. The newly connected customer service graciously canceled the return request for me, and my order was able to function normally again. I jokingly asked her if JD.com installed "robots" in the human customer service to test their performance, something like a free Turing test, and she laughed and said that there was no such thing, so she stopped the conversation and asked me for one. Five star review.
Since I majored in electrical engineering and automation systems in college, I thought I would study PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) after graduation and embark on the road of automatic control. Although I have taken a completely different path now, I know that the artificial intelligence with high self-awareness in the movie is still far away from us. What we have is just the robotic arms called "robots" in the factory. , no matter how expensive and sophisticated they are, they are just machines that can be controlled by programming. But even so, these advanced machines with closed-loop control systems can easily injure workers and even take human lives, which are more expensive than machines - in the news of work-related injuries due to machine failures, machines don't know themselves. What have you done. In the movie, the man who loves old muscle cars can't do anything and can't get past the police, if it's not for STEM to help him with self-driving cars. In reality, however, we try to drive a little bit into the future of the film through other plausible paths.
Attachment: I suddenly remembered something. In fact, at the beginning of the movie, there was a detail that implied that STEM was the murderer. At that time, STEM asked Gray to pay attention to the tattoo on the murderer's wrist in the surveillance video shot by the police aircraft. At that time, STEM did not see the suspect. It only recognized the tattoo on his face, and it explained to the male protagonist in its own words that it was through a higher-definition visual scan, but if everyone has common sense, you can actually find the problem at that time. That is, the video source is blurred, and it is impossible to restore the original clear image no matter what algorithm is used. Just like the built-in AI photography of many mobile phones, the algorithm is only used to simulate the possible situation of the scene at that time, and the AI chip is trained by using big data cloud computing to make the photographic picture more in line with the possible appearance at that time. To put it bluntly, it is a guess. In the same way, there is also the removal of mosaics. Mosaic removal is also based on guessing, so the picture obtained after decoding is not the original picture, but a simulated picture. In short, if someone writes a face, the picture obtained after removing the mosaic using AI The face will be partly different from his own. So it was impossible for STEM to calculate the exact number of tattoos based on the vague video source. Later, we learned that STEM is actually a BOSS, so it makes sense. STEM knew the identities of those tattoos and those killers from the very beginning. , because they are all from STEM, and STEM is just acting according to the script.
