21、d at the workplace. On the way home, we are affected by the car horns and the like. All these sources of noise can have negative effects on human beings.” Recent studies on the issue have shown that many people suffer from increasing hearing loss due to exposure to constant noise.

It seemed like a logical transition after spendingsix years working in public health and primary care befo
29、re medical school, but from the perspective of Taiwanese immigrant parents, I couldnt have made a more ridiculous career choice. I was shocked by the line of questioning, but theyre my parents, so I had to answer the fundamental question why family medicine?For me, the answer is simple: I went into
30、medicine to improve the health of my community and our society, and when I think about the most pressing health issues facing our nation, its preventable lifestyle disease. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 75 percent of our health-care costs and 7/10 of deaths c
31、ome from chronic diseases that are largely preventable.As amedical profession, weve largely been unsuccessful at getting people to engage in healthy behaviors. Luckily thats where family medicine doctors are uniquely positioned to succeed. For one, the family physician has lots of training to serve
32、everyone in a community, and in doing so, can influence community behavior as a whole.

Hollywoods theory that
37、 machines with evil minds will drive armies of killer robots is just silly. The real problem relates to the possibility that artificial intelligence(AI) may become extremely good at achieving something other than what we really want. In 1960 a well-known mathematician Norbert Wiener, who founded the
38、 field of cybernetics（控制论）, put it this way: “If we use, to achieve our purposes, a mechanical agency with whose operation we cannot effectively interfere(干预), we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire.” A machine with a specific purpose
39、has another quality, one that we usually associate with living things: a wish to preserve its own existence. For the machine, this quality is not in-born, nor is it something introduced by humans; it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the machine cannot achieve its original purpose if
40、it is dead. So if we send out a robot with the single instruction of fetching coffee, it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off switch or even killing anyone who might interfere with its task. If we are not careful, then, we could face a kind of global chess match again
41、st very determined, super intelligent machines whose objectives conflict with our own, with the real world as the chessboard. The possibility of entering into and losing such a match should concentrate the minds of computer scientists. Some researchers argue that we can seal the machines inside a ki
42、nd of firewall, using them to answer difficult questions but never allowing them to affect the real world. Unfortunately, that plan seems unlikely to work: we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure against ordinary humans, let alone super intelligent machines. Solving the safety problem well e
43、nough to move forward in AI seems to be possible but not easy. There are probably decades in which to plan for the arrival of super intelligent machines. But the problem should not be dismissed out of hand, as it has been by some AI researchers. Some argue that humans and machines can coexist as lon
44、g as they work in teamsyet that is not possible unless machines share the goals of humans. Others say we can just “switch them off” as if super intelligent machines are too stupid to think of that possibility. Still others think that super intelligent AI will never happen. On September 11, 1933, fam
45、ous physicist Ernest Rutherford stated, with confidence, “Anyone who expects a source of power in the transformation of these atoms is talking moonshine.” However, on September 12, 1933, physicist Leo Szilard invented the neutron-induced(中子诱导) nuclear chain reaction.32.
