声网发布在线素质、职业教育解决方案 搭建多场景、全平台线上课堂
提交: May 12, 2022, 2:55am CST
标签: [编辑]
5月11日，声网在线上举办了主题为“聚焦场景力，释放生态力”的在线教育发布会，正式发布了新生态下在线教育多场景教学解决方案，包括在线音乐、在线美术、在线职业教育、在线编程、Stem在线教学解决方案。同时为兼顾降低教学场景研发门槛和课堂教学质量，声网还发布了从 PaaS到 aPaaS 教育产品矩阵，并联合生态的 SaaS 教育、智能硬件、云市场组件等伙伴，共同整合互动应用技术服务，为教育线上化的全方位业务赋能，共同构建高质量、高稳定的一站式线上教学场景解决方案。
“在以产品力是线上教育创业者未来竞争核心力的趋势下，声网在教育场景上做了以下核心技术的突破：实现真正的视频互动大班课，能支持128人音视频上行；学生端和老师端提供了背景虚拟化、人像抠图、美颜、虚拟人像等功能；复杂环境下能做到AI降噪和回声消除；在SDK崩溃率上，友盟发布的崩溃率行业标准水平是0.4%，我们的指标是0.004%，已经达到行业平均水平的千分之一，能更好地保障课堂的稳定流畅性。”声网教育行业产品负责人李斯特表示。
素质教育解决方案：低代码快速搭建音乐、美术、编程、Stem 在线课堂双减政策出台后，宣告了学科类的市场化已经落幕。在这样的大背景下，企业开始探索新场景，“从声网发布的教育场景图谱上可以看到，目前教育行业细分赛道都存在着潜在的创新机会，如在线美术、在线声乐、在线编程、在线技能实训、在线健身课等多个场景。其中大部分场景在我们平台过去一年的音视频用量是持续增长，例如职业教育和成人兴趣学习，在2022年一季度的音视频分钟数同比2021年增长了230%。”李斯特介绍。
但不同于学科教学场景，素质教育对实时互动技术有着非常强烈的个性化诉求，也无法将之前学科类的解决方案直接套用，核心难点是在于素质教育赛道细分场景多、需要融入教具且交互复杂，通用的音视频课没办法满足线上素质教育场景的要求，同质化严重，无法构建差异化竞争。
如在美术教学场景中，最大的痛点是画质和互动。画质上，线上课堂学生的光照明暗度不一，摄像头本地拍摄易产生画面变形，这些因素都会影响到老师能不能精确地做出辅导。现场，声网发布的在线素质教育解决方案，可以提供明暗光线的校正和高保真采集，基于图像采集、AI算法优化能改善弱光体验，还原画面色彩，并且图像梯形校正能解决学生端拍摄作品易出现的镜头畸变问题，让老师能清楚的看到学生作品细节便于指导。同时针对可能会出现的教学视觉盲区，在线素质教育解决方案还支持外接摄像头，多角度采集学生画板画面。
而音乐教学场景，包含了乐器陪练、声乐小班、音乐大班等课程，这些场景搬到线上会遇到多人实时合唱同步性差、伴奏/乐器/人声分离难、复杂乐器外设难以接入、AI降噪与回声消除效果差等痛点。“这些问题都会导致音乐教学效果差、体验差，在多人实时合唱场景中，声网可以提供低至 64ms 超低延时，通过多端伴奏、歌词和人声精准校正同步，打造线上真实合唱体验。乐器教学的场景，能支持MIDI 信号的无损传输，帮助电子乐器接入课堂，延迟低至50ms，实现线上远程合奏。”声网教育低代码产品负责人钱奋介绍。不仅如此，音乐教学场景出现的回声、噪音等情况，声网领先的“AI降噪与回声消除”能力能实现乐器和人声精准分离，减少教学环境中的回声混响干扰，保障音乐场景中声音的最佳体验。
除音乐、美术教学外，编程和Stem教学也是教育创业者热衷的赛道，针对这两个场景的线上化，声网也发布了解决方案。在线编程教学场景，提供跨平台、跨设备、安全快捷的远程桌面共享和指令控制服务，支持随时随地的远程访问、远程协作和远程管理，并且支持Scratch、Python等在线代码编辑器和多人协作编程。Stem在线教学场景，支持PPT、H5、Cocos、Unity等动态课件，并拥有视频窗口随意拖拽、高清放大、多视频同屏展示等功能。
“线上素质教育场景教学重体验，重交互，那伴随着需要机构较强的研发能力，在这个问题上，我们今年升级了灵动课堂2.0版本，赋予了更强的场景化构建能力，提供了素质教育、职业教育等不同的场景化能力，让没有太多技术背景的教育创业者，能够结合其自身的在线教学需求，高效、低成本构建定制化在线课堂。”钱奋表示。
灵动课堂2.0 覆盖了1V1、互动小班课、大班课等班型，以及K12、美术、音乐、编程、Stem等教学场景，为教育创业者提供贯穿课堂丰富教学组件，如投票、分组、答题器、倒计时等，老师端还支持屏幕共享、远程控制、窗口拖拽、高清放大等功能。此外灵动课堂还提供UIkit组件、自定义插件、轻量化配置等定制化进阶服务。目前灵动课堂已经为小叶子陪练、画啦啦、小美在线等教育客户提供了高质量的线上教学课堂搭建。
职业教育解决方案：兼顾成本、效率与体验发布会现场，声网还发布了在线职业教育解决方案。近年来，受政策的激励，职业教育市场规模在逐年递增，近五年年均增长率保持在10%以上，并且2022年市场规模有望突破万亿。尽管市场空间巨大，但线上的业务教学模式却未得到有效的提升，机构普遍面临服务同质化、缺少精细化运营、音视频质量差、系统集成困难等难题。

任哲表示，随着技术的不断进步，在线教学的教学质量也在持续提升，尤其是互动体验，音视频技术的普及对线上教学的质量与学习效率带来了质的提升，例如在小组讨论环节：在既定教学场景中，需要小组讨论，现实模拟的环节，学生可以足不出户，在任何地方完成互动探讨的环节，提升课程完成效率。而未来，在线教育在现实增强与大数据方面有望带来更大的提升空间。
赵悦帆则表示，当下的RTC技术以及AI等技术，真正解决的是线上培训中要突破的空间和时间的局限性，例如RTC技术让很多不发达地区学生也能享受到优质的教育资源，缓解了教育资源的不均衡性，同时AI技术可以辅助解决了教师在教育环节中的一些繁琐劳动力，把他们从这块机械性重复性的工作中解放出来，把更多精力投入到因材施教。
杨继珩认为，技术最终有机会赋能到教学场景的每一个环节，从教学基础的信息化、社交化、数据化，到智能化、人文化等，当前的技术实现线上教学基础的信息化、数据化、社交化已有比较好的模型，但距离有效的智能化以及基础的人文化的阶段还有相当的差距，也是技术最难以替代人的部分。同时，希望未来技术能够在更好的权益保障、社交化学习的赋能、学习路径规划与实训，这四个方向对在线教学起到更好的辅助作用。
李斯特最后表示，音视频技术迭代升级可以降低互动教学的应用门槛，比如大频道技术让更多人参与视频互动，比如虚拟人和动作捕捉提升互动参与热情，这些迭代升级会帮助提升学习效果，同时多设备机位、高自由度视角、VR、AR等设备的引入，让老师可以做更精细的线上教学操作演示，新技术推动了过去很难在线化的一些学习科目，甚至未来可以畅想，在线学习修车和烹饪也有可能是一个赛道和行业。

今年的TikTok跨境，就是2015年的亚马逊？
提交: May 12, 2022, 11:01pm CST
标签: [编辑]
如果让中国跨境卖家回忆2015年的亚马逊，所有人都会跟你描述一个“躺着都能赚钱”的大淘金景象。而今天的亚马逊早已经成了一个内卷和感受不到善意的平台，中国卖家纷纷在寻找下一个大机会。而他们当中的不少人在今年越来越感觉，如今的TikTok跨境电商可能是那个答案。
赶紧上车自2020年与Shopify和Walmart合作试水电商领域后，TikTok从2021年正式将电商作为重点发力业务，先后在印尼和英国等地上线TikTok Shop（TikTok小店）。最近TikTok Shop又在4月25日在泰国、越南、马来西亚、菲律宾四个东南亚国家，上线跨境电商业务。
与此同时，大量卖家因为亚马逊封号潮的发生，也开始密切关注或直接在TikTok跨境业务上做生意。
看好TikTok的人都认为这个平台的电商潜力不可小觑。抖音直播电商在国内的成功促使先行者们押注TikTok Shop直播带货，雇佣外语流利的年轻人在直播镜头前滔滔不绝地介绍商品。与此同时，开放东南亚四国跨境业务后，TikTok Shop上线跨境商品一键同步售卖功能，热门商品在不同市场同步售卖，并由系统自动翻译成当地语言和货币定价。
眼看在TikTok平台卖货更加方便，海量商家涌入平台。一个直观的例证是，开放东南亚四国跨境业务两周前的4月10日，“TikTok Shop跨境商家咨询群”达到5000人的上限，群管理员不得不引导还未成功入群的商家加入新群。
事实上不仅是商家体现出的焦虑和热情让人似曾相识，两家平台所处的环境和各自公司的发展境况也有很多相似之处。
亚马逊在21世纪第一个十年里建立起的第三方卖家业务（Marketplace）、Prime会员体系、FBA自有物流，就如同稳固的铁三角般，让贝索斯提出的“增长飞轮”快速地运转起来，超过同期在内的一众零售电商平台。这个铁三角为其21世纪第二个十年中的跨境电商，提供了流量、物流支付、销售体系在内的重要支持。
2015年贝索斯致股东的信中首次点明了第三方卖家业务（也称市集业务，Marketplace）在亚马逊全球化中的重要性，直言“这些跨境业务已经达到亚马逊第三方销售额的四分之一”。

同期，亚马逊对中国卖家的吸引力也开始超过线下外贸以及eBay在内的老牌跨境平台。仅2015年一年，亚马逊中国卖家的总销售额就同比增长了两倍，在美国站，这个数字是十倍。
同样的故事正发生在TikTok身上。
据公开资料，TikTok是2021年度互联网访问量最大的平台，力压蝉联榜首多年的科技巨头Google，同年9月，TikTok的月度活跃用户量突破了10亿，而其全球总下载量在该年底达到33亿次。
坐拥如此大的全球用户基数，无疑让TikTok在开拓电商业务时拥有绝对的流量优势。
与此同时，就像亚马逊当时的崛起伴随着eBay等的式微，今天TikTok跃跃欲试的同时，亚马逊零售业务近开始增速放缓、与中国卖家关系开始转变。
而且有趣的是，从品类来说，时下风靡TikTok平台的3C电子消费品、玩具、家居百货，以及美妆等品类，其实也是2015年左右在亚马逊最先火起来的商品类型。大众的消费需求并没有随着时间而改变，但率先诞生爆款的地方，却代表了下个命运转门的朝向。

从一家公司发展的角度，两者也有神似之处。
由于美国本土卖家无法支撑市集业务的规模化增长，亚马逊于2012年开始面向海外第三方卖家进行招募，这一全球化进程在2015年初显成效，其面向189个国家的消费者，提供数亿种产品列表和44种货币转换服务。
可以说，除了AWS之外，第三方卖家业务自2015开始，成为了亚马逊的另一大增长点。在亚马逊2021年度财报中，第三方销售额高达3900亿美元，占其总销售额的65%，而其中逾七成第三方卖家来自全球各地。
虽然用户增长尚未见顶，但今年的TikTok实则也站在了转折点上。
对于国内增长渐趋放缓的字节跳动来说，TikTok的重要性变得越来越突出，令人惊艳的广告营收便是最好的证明。近日有媒体报道称，TikTok在2021年的广告收入已达到40亿美元，其2022年的目标是120亿美元，同比海外第一梯队的互联网公司，这个数字将超越Twitter与Snapchat两家公司的广告营收之和。
换言之，如果TikTok的广告营收能在2022年达到预期，它将成为全球仅次于谷歌、Meta、亚马逊的第四大互联网广告收入平台。
然而TikTok也需要第二增长曲线。互联网广告营收的持续飙高固然可喜，但广告变现距离TikTok之于商业世界的全部想象力还差得远。“流量是电商的生命线”，当这个引领海外潮流的内容平台不甘心只扮演流量来源的角色，如何发挥短视频和直播与电商的协同作用，让TikTok成为继亚马逊之后的下一个全球跨境电商平台，才真的令外界感到兴奋。
商家们要适应TikTok的新逻辑这些相似之处让商家们兴奋，但想要抓住这个新机会，并非把原来的方式换个平台再用一次那么简单。
两个平台崛起背后一个最大的不同是：当时亚马逊跨境是由规模激增的海外第三方卖家从供给侧开始拉动，并逐渐聚集起更大规模的用户流量；而当下的TikTok跨境，则是先拥有了巨大的用户流量，并从需求侧产生了线上购物的站内生态环境。
虽然TikTok Shop目前仅于部分国家地区上线，但其站内种草短视频已在海外掀起了热度极高的“争抢式购物潮”。海外用户对于TikTok爆款商品的追求，甚至催生出了一批TikTok网红商品代购店。不夸张地说，如果在这些代购店中都买不到的TikTok爆品，在线下线上任何地方也买不到，“有时候能在eBay上找到，但价格都炒得非常高”。
35岁以下的年轻人是TikTok的基本盘，在其他地方买不到的产品戳中他们追逐潮流的心思，抓人眼球的商品更像是用来分享的社交货币。“新奇特”甚至成为爆款产品的守则之一。

转运水晶、外形奇特的解压小玩具等日常生活中不常见的产品在TikTok平台非常受欢迎。解压玩具“pop it ball”在去年首先流行于TikTok平台，电商卖家敏锐地嗅到机会，关键词“pop it ball”在亚马逊平台和Google Trends的流量也呈现上升趋势。另一款外形奇特的产品“解压猩猩”在TikTok积累160万粉丝，这款解压玩具在2021年爆火后又一次进入用户视线，4月7日的视频播放量突破7800万次。这个新奇产品的定价不低，50多美元的单价满满都是“网红产品”的味道。
事实上，海外地区、尤其是欧美国家的达人种草经济要比国内更成熟，当地用户愿意相信并听从网红达人的购物意见进行消费决策，以往他们更多从YouTube和Instagram平台获取此类内容，近年来随着短视频兴起，转向TikTok平台。

“很多达人拍摄短视频或者直播时会用手机前置镜头，这让我有种在跟朋友视频聊天的错觉，比YouTube视频更能拉近我与达人的距离感，而看到TikTok实时显示的播放量和互动评论，又让我非常有紧迫感，好像再不买就买不到了。”一位TikTok用户在接受外媒采访时说。
这种TikTok种草带来的购物狂热，让站内名为“TikTok made me buy it”（TikTok令我不得不买）的话题异常火爆。截至发稿前，这个话题的总浏览量超过121亿次。而几位接受外媒采访的种草内容创作者，在一年多时间里创下的个人收入高达数百万美元。
TikTok的造富神话已然拉开了帷幕。
图源：官网截图
这种由需求侧带催生出的电商生态，也进一步让TikTok跨境业务产生了与亚马逊跨境更为本质的不同。
对于2015年在亚马逊做跨境的中国卖家来说，利用国内数十年供应链基础所带来的成本优势，加上国内电商先于海外发展多年所积累的经验，快速地实现规模化并非难事。
而对今年的TikTok跨境来说，虽然中国卖家此前擅长的供应链整合与电商运营能力，仍不失为一种优势，但却不再是最核心的竞争力。
从TikTok用户在平台的消费行为来看，对内容和网红达人本身的认可度要远超过单纯追求性价比，这就对中国跨境卖家提出了更难的挑战：既要掌握内容电商的逻辑和玩法，同时更要懂海外本土文化的流行趋势。
在海外电商市场范围来看，TikTok是爆款发源地；从平台生态来看，爆款商品也是当下TikTok电商生态重要的一部分。一家有TikTok直播带货经验的第三方服务商总结道：“二八定律”依旧适用，80%以上的GMV来自20%的爆品。不少卖家抱着“搏一搏，单车变摩托”的心态入场，期待踩中爆品的风口。
然而，一个扎心的事实是：中国短视频电商和直播电商的方法论是无法直接复制到TikTok平台的。无论是跟上TikTok平台的流行趋势及时上架热门商品，还是成为高阶玩家引领TikTok趋势，中国跨境卖家都面临视频内容创作、引流、运营、供应链等多方面的挑战。
今年1月，转运水晶还是火爆TikTok Shop英国站的“当红炸子鸡”，销售额TOP10的产品中有3款是水晶类商品。到了5月，TikTok Shop英国站销量TOP10中已不见水晶的身影，反倒是3款理发工具产品入围TOP10。当下倘若用做其他平台爆款产品的思维来做TikTok跨境电商，显而易见，大量囤货的路子风险会很高。

不过跨境电商难度的增长不一定是坏事。
相比于亚马逊传统电商模式，即将在TikTok大规模爆发的内容电商，反而给了跨境卖家利用短视频和直播打造自有品牌的机会。看透这点，很多亚马逊中国卖家也准备入驻TikTok平台，他们多年来困于亚马逊的产品推荐模式，明明在垂直品类销量非常靠前，却一直在为他人做嫁衣，出了平台却没有丝毫知名度。
更有意思的是，虽然TikTok在美国还没正式推出店铺功能，但半闭环模式阶段允许消费者通过购物车链接，直接跳转到品牌在Shopify的独立站，这对于在亚马逊中挣扎着找不到独立站导流方式的跨境卖家来说，也算是个不小的福利。
电商直播的兴起，以及内容创作者“种草”带货的可能性，已经通过中国互联网得到了证明。通过TikTok这样的高关注度应用打破传统电商算法排名以及平台框架的桎梏，从中获得可观的品牌操作自由度和创意，将价值掌握在自己手中，这将很有可能是电商平台未来的新秩序。

谷歌I/O四大更新：科技本质不是硬件和软件，而是知识与计算
提交: May 12, 2022, 6:03pm CST
标签: [编辑]
经过三年，谷歌开发者大会 I/O 终于今天回归线下。
位于谷歌山景城总部旁边的 Shoreline 露天剧院今天座无虚席。上千名公司员工、合作伙伴代表，以及幸运的第三方开发者，终于在他们最熟悉的地方得以齐聚一堂。
在欢快的电子舞曲之后，谷歌 CEO Sundar Pichai 走了出来：“哈咯，大家能听到我吗？”这引得台下一阵欢笑。
“过去两年里，每次我进会议都是静音的，所以我想也许我应该跟大家一起测试一下麦。”
Pichai 表示，今年的 I/O 大会会发布和预告一系列科技含量非常高的产品和功能，横跨谷歌的搜索、地图、Android 软件、Pixel 硬件产品，以及 AI 研究等多个部门。
然而这些产品和功能本身，并不是科技的本质。
几年前，谷歌重新设计了自己的公司使命：整合全球信息，使人人都能访问并从中受益。在 Pichai 看来，这个使命有两个最根本的组成部分：知识和计算。在 Pichai 的带领下，谷歌在过去几年内在技术和产品创新方面所做的努力，包括感知计算 (Ambient Computing)、多模态学习、融合搜索 (Multisearch)、超大规模语言模型、增强现实等——其实归根结底，都是在做两件事：
1）加深对于信息的理解，将其变为知识；
2）推进计算的范式创新，从而让任何人在世界任何角落，都可以更容易地访问和获取知识。
最直接的例子，就是谷歌在过去两年所扮演重要的信息枢纽角色：
在2021年，人们通过谷歌搜索和地图来查找疫苗接种信息超过20亿次；
在印度和孟加拉国，谷歌采用最新神经网络技术开发的季风预警系统，已经为超过2300万人提供了暴雨洪水预警，预计已挽救数十万灾民的生命。
信息只是信息，在民众之间流转的效率极低，并且很难保持准确度。但是因为有了先进的知识图谱技术，这些信息能够被系统识别、提取、精炼、汇总，最终以搜索结果、手机通知、灾害报告等形态，作为一种知识，得到了准确和高效的传播。
在今天的 I/O 大会，谷歌发布了一系列以推进知识和计算为核心的新产品、功能和技术。
让真实世界可以被"Ctrl-F"今年4月，谷歌发布了一个全新的多模态搜索功能，让用户手机上通过拍照+文本的方式，进行更加定制化的搜索。比如很想买别人穿的一双鞋，但想要另一款颜色，就可以拍照，再加上“蓝色”的文字。这样，只需要进行一次搜索，就可以更容易地找到自己正在寻找的信息和产品。
但这还不够。对于谷歌来说，他们想要索引和组织的信息，早已不仅限于网上。比如，我们用谷歌地图来搜索真实世界中的地理位置相关信息。但如果想要更进一步，让用户可以更加精确地搜索真实世界，特别是他们附近的特定信息，能做到吗？
在今天 I/O 大会上，谷歌还真发布了一个这样的功能：Multisearch Near Me（周边多重搜索）.
我们可能都遇到过这样的情况：在网上看到一道之前从未见过，但让你口水直流的菜，但是你压根都不知道它叫什么菜，属于什么菜系，附近有没有对应的餐馆。
这个功能就是专门来解决这个痛点的。你只需要拍照或者把照片上传，然后文字输入加上 “在我周围”：谷歌不仅能告诉你这道菜叫什么名字，还能够搜到附近有这道菜的店家。
这个搜索能力不仅限于食物，因为它的背后是谷歌搜索已经在采用的多模态机器学习引擎。一个模型可以同时理解并处理文字、图片、语音等多种不同模态的信息。原则上，任何物体它都能够搜索，包括并不限于食物、商品、服务（比如美甲）等。
这个功能将于今年内正式推出，初期仅支持英文，后续将会增加更多语言。与此同时，这个功能已经上线谷歌移动端 App，用户已经可以开始使用。
除此之外，今年谷歌在视觉搜索上面还有另一个大动作：对移动的取景框内，多个不同物体，进行同时和连续搜索，并且通过AR叠加的方式来展现这些物体相关的信息。
比如在超市，面对一整面货架的咖啡豆，不知道该买哪一款，你只需要掏出手机，打开 Google Lens（谷歌搜索和相机的视觉搜索功能），就可以看到这些不同品牌咖啡豆的评分了。
不仅如此，你还可以继续进行条件过滤，比如“高分”、“深烘焙”、“不含坚果等”：
这个功能叫做 Scene Exploration，目前仍在开发中，尚无具体发布的计划。除了 AR 之外，它也同样利用了刚才提到的多重搜索技术。
Pichai 表示：这就像给真实世界加入了 "Ctrl-F" 功能一样。
谷歌地图：观察真实的世界，现在有了全新角度疫情两年以来，很多人恐怕已经忘记旅行是一种怎样的体验。这也是为什么很多人现在只能通过谷歌地图/地球，以及浏览各种网站照片和旅行视频来“过眼瘾”。
深知这一点，谷歌地图团队决定给用户们送上一份大福利。
先看下面这张图。如果不说清楚的话，你可能以为这是一张伦敦实景照片：
但其实，这是谷歌地图团队使用最先进的绘图和机器学习技术，开发出的全新的3D渲染地图功能 Immersive View：
对于一些知名的地标建筑，比如伦敦的大本钟和西敏寺大教堂，用户可以旋转3D地图查看不同角度，甚至还可以自选查看地标建筑物在不同时间和天气下多变的样貌：
谷歌地图 Immersive View （沉浸式视图）将在今年内推出，支持 Android 和 iOS，支持的城市和地标有限，首批包括洛杉矶、伦敦、纽约、旧金山和东京，之后将逐渐增加更多城市和知名建筑物。
AI 帮你“长求总”在谷歌，Pichai 会要求员工给他发送较长文档或电邮的时候，把内容总结成 TLDR (Too Long Didn't Read，也就是“长求总”)，放在文档或电邮的最前面。这引发了团队的思考：如果更多东西也能被 TLDR，那该多好？
之前谷歌还就真的推出过这么一个功能：
在文档当中，机器学习模型会在后台运行，从文档和聊天记录当中提取文本，提炼出关键内容，然后自动生成一份总结：
以下面这份团队出游计划为例：AI 可以提取出组织者、成员、每一位成员的登记状态和提问，以及相关参考资料等重要信息，放在文档的开头，让文档的参与者可以一目了然。
而在这届 I/O 大会上，谷歌宣布把这个 TLDR 功能迁移到整个企业套件 Google Workspace 的更多功能里，比如 Space 和 Google Chat。
（Space 是谷歌企业服务的团队沟通产品，和 Slack 对标。）
毕竟我们可能都有特别喜欢在聊天的时候一句话只发几个字，还不停的发的同事或朋友——有了这个功能之后，我们也许就可以直接屏蔽ta的消息通知，然后隔段时间看一下总结就行了。
在这个 TLDR 功能的背后，实际上是谷歌在自然语言理解和处理方面的一次“大跃进”式的突破。
在过去，类似的文本总结功能通常需要神经网络模型同时具有长文本段落理解、信息压缩和语言生成方面的能力，对于以往的模型来说是不可能的。
随着谷歌近几年在超大规模语言模型和多模态机器学习方面的进步，这一看起来非常简单，正常人可以轻松具备的能力，才终于被机器获得。
用计算的力量，让知识无远弗届去年，谷歌推出了 LaMDA (Language Model for Dialog Applications)，一个主要用于对话类应用的语言生成模型。我们在去年的 I/O 大会报道中曾经详细介绍过这个模型。
今年，谷歌在 LaMDA 的基础上进一步开发，强化了模型的参数量和能力，并终于推出了 LaMDA 2 模型。已经有数千名谷歌员工在试用这一模型并为 Google AI 的研究开发团队提供反馈。
在此基础上，谷歌还推出了一个名为 AI Test Kitchen 的测试环境。这是一个应用，目前仍在小范围封闭测试中，主要目的是让一小部分人跟它背后的 LaMDA 2 进行对话，提出各种各样的问题，或者让它完成各种各样的任务。
目前 AI Test Kitchen 已经开放了三个 Demo：
1）想象 Imagine it，用户给出一个地点，让模型自己想象那里的景色并生成描述：
2）分解步骤/规划列表 List it，你可以问它一个复杂的问题，比如“把大象装进冰箱”，然后看它把完成任务需要的步骤列出来。
值得一提的是，分解和生成的步骤列表当中的每一项，还可以继续分解裂变；而且，它不仅能够生成列表（提炼知识），还能够在具体步骤上提供额外的详细指导（设定几种不同的具体情况，并提供不同的建议）。
3）描述 Talk About It，给一个既定的话题，让他随便说些什么。
目前，LaMDA 模型技术还处于早期阶段，在实际试用和完成具体任务的时候会出现一些预料之中或之外的异常情况，比如在用户意图继续讨论当前话题的时候出现跑题，或者分解生成的步骤列表存在错误信息等。
目前，谷歌搜索和其它一些重度依赖知识图谱 (Knowledge Graph) 的产品，已经在利用类似的语言生成模型了。通过 AI Test Kitchen，谷歌希望测试者能够更多地和 LaMDA 进行互动，做出评价，给予反馈。
在未来，谷歌的计划是采用其在最近一年里开发的超大规模语言模型集大成者——PaLM（全称 Pathways Language Model）来完成更加复杂的语言模型类任务。
PaLM 和前序超大规模语言模型最大的不同，就在于它有一个“思路链条”(Chain of Thought) 系统，并且能够在输出结果的时候把这个推理逻辑一同体现出来。这和以往被认为是黑盒子的神经网络模型工作方式产生了非常大的不同，不仅在 AI 可解释性上获得了长足进展，还展现出神经网络在仿生（人类）的工作机制上的重要进步。
开发超大规模语言模型、多模态神经网络等目前最先进的机器学习技术，并且将其用于谷歌的核心商业产品，对于这家公司来说尤为重要。
互联网乃至整个人类社会每天都在生成大量的信息，而谷歌需要维持将这些信息高效地转变成成为知识，并且让这些知识可以被每一位用户及时、方便地获取的能力。
虽然今天谷歌仍然是世界的百科全书，但只有维持这种能力，谷歌才能继续实现其当前商业地位和人类社会地位的永续。
One More Thing: 借助 AR 和翻译的力量，打破语言的隔阂这场 I/O 大会也发布了不少硬件产品，它们并非我们今天主要关注的对象，你可以通过硅星人的母站品玩的报道来了解这些硬件产品。
不过值得一提的是，还真有一款今天展示的硬件，以它自己独特的方式，强化了今天谷歌想要传达的主题。
主题演讲的最后，Pichai 播放了一段视频，展示了谷歌正在开发的一款智能眼镜原型产品。
图源：谷歌
这支眼镜，看起来一点都不“智能”。然而，它却能够实时翻译面前的人所说的话，并且把翻译结果显示在镜片上：
更厉害的是，它还能够翻译美国手语 (ASL)：
语言是人际沟通最重要的工具。然而，如果对方说的是完全不懂的语言，或者当对方是聋哑人的时候，我们之间的沟通就成了一堵难以跨越的高墙。
在高墙面前，谷歌选择了它最熟悉的方式——用技术去消弭隔阂，使得难以进行的沟通，终于得以成为可能。
曾几何时，“科技以人为本”作为一家科技公司的标语，被传为佳话。而在今天，谷歌更加具体地帮助我们拆解了“科技以人为本”的概念究竟是什么：
科技的本质是知识与计算。而归根结底，知识与计算的存在，都应该是为了我们更好地理解世界，并被世界所理解。

Backwards Compatibility
This repack is HEAVILY backwards compatible with my previous TF2 repack. Only fg-04.bin, fg-05.bin & setup.exe have been updated, so you need to download 38 MB of changed data.
