Return of the 10th Circle Archmage

“·················ogue.”

When asked what the hell is artificial intelligence, the students kept their mouths shut again.

“Are you all dumb? Why are you not talking?”

Professor Yoo Ha-eun looked around the students with a slightly pathetic expression.

'Hmm······.'

Most of the students turned their gaze to avoid the question.

‘All Korean students are like that.’

Most of the students who graduated from elementary, middle, and high schools in Korea.

As they grow up, they gradually lose the way to ask questions.

'I didn't at first...'

Not being able to ask questions is not because Asians are dumber than whites.

'The habit of asking questions with great curiosity as a child is gradually diminishing due to the annoyance of adults...'

In general, parents tend to answer their children's questions in detail.

Of course, there are parents who do not like that, but if they are a parent who has affection for their child, they try to answer them well.

However.

‘Even if you go to elementary school, you will be blocked from asking questions…’

Teachers were not parents.

They were only paid workers in society and at work.

Educators and everything else, no matter how loud they talk, in the end, they were civil servants with iron rice bowls, and workers who worked.

‘Because teachers usually don’t like to ask questions…….’

At first, there were students who did not like questions, but it was entirely the teachers' fault that the questions disappeared in Korean schools.

'It's not that I'm getting paid more for answering questions honestly, I'm just doing what I've been doing for several decades, and it's easy to work with...'

As an educator who teaches students, it's not that I don't understand their ideas at all.

However.

'That's wrong...'

If you were going to aim for a safe salary in that way in the first place, you shouldn't have been an educator.

‘The damage is entirely on the students.’

A bad school system, and indolent and lazy educators.

Pathetic educators who avoid all errors and stress to develop, and fill their retirement age with a glance, saying, “Good things are good.”

Because of such people, countless students who entered the school have been harmed even now and in the future.

'It shouldn't be like that...'

Professor Ha-eun Yoo thought that Korea University, which is called the 'Hall of Knowledge', should be different.

‘It is not just an education that learns past knowledge in the form of an infusion, but students themselves find their own study direction with an active attitude, and explore unknown areas with motivation and hard work under stress.’

Which one is more efficient, the former or the latter?

widely!After finishing his thoughts, Professor Yoo Ha-eun put the vodka marker he was holding on the desk and opened his mouth.

“All students who participated in today’s class will be given the lowest class score.”

Shoot ah!

In addition to the regular midterm exams, mock exams, and various report assignments, there were standards for grading grades.

It was just a class evaluation.

In addition to basic assignments, most of the professors at Hankuk University also greatly reflected their class attitudes in their credit evaluation.

*

‘Oh what the fuck?’

I was listening to class with my chin in the back seat, and my eyes widened in surprise.

‘Why are you giving me the lowest score all of a sudden?’

It's not even the sound of banging in my sleep, what the hell did I do wrong?

‘Are you sure you didn’t ask a question like that…?’

Usually, taking the announcements I attended in the past, for example, teachers rarely ask students questions in hopes of answers... No, not at all.

Just like the chorus of a song, he asked a question as if he was putting a kuse in his description, and most of it he recovered immediately.

'But, that professor is too active...'

Like a person who ate American water, he was very sensitive to questions and answers.

'What does it have to do with me anyway...?'

I chose the Hell difficulty course that was never broken in this school, and I am here today to break the impossible.

So, it didn't really matter to me whether the class was given the lowest or the highest grade.

'By the way, the class is thrilling and fun...'

Rather than just giving boring explanations, I felt like my concentration was revived when I drove the students in a Spartan way with a whip like that.

'I might have been aiming for that more...'

From the position where I had my chin crossed and staring blankly at the whiteboard, I sat back upright.

“No one has answered about artificial intelligence, so I’ll just explain. But, this is the last time.”

“·················ogue.”

It seemed to mean that there was no soup at first if you looked at it at first, and then if you saengkalan next time.

“Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence created by machines. In computer science, it means beings with ideal intelligence, or intelligence created by systems, that is, artificial intelligence.”

"Ah······."

Even the students already knew what artificial intelligence was like.

'Because everyone is already using artificial intelligence in every part of our lives...'

Of course, it wasn't the 'strong artificial intelligence' we saw in science fiction movies, it was literally 'weak artificial intelligence' woven by computer programming algorithms.

‘I don’t [reasonate, judge] like a human, but [calculate] like a human.’

Alpha Gon from Gubble, Sunsiri from Macple, Alex from Yamazon, etc...

We are already using artificial intelligence in our daily life, such as smartphones and computers, every day.

“The development of artificial intelligence began in the 1930s, and its beginnings ...”

As this is my first full-fledged class, I first explained the history of artificial intelligence that I already knew.

square square.

The students immediately picked up their ballpoint pens and started taking notes.

'If you look at the major books, you will find them all...'

There was no need to write them all down like that.

The important thing is...

‘A question.’

Such dead knowledge can be scrapped and viewed in a lot of spare time.

‘Classes are basically communication between students and professors…’

To that end, the country poured taxes into this place.

I did not create this place to write down the contents of my major like that.

'I'm a bit of a bitch too, honestly... No, I'm different, right?'

I didn't like to come forward and I didn't like to ask questions, just like those students, but there was one thing that was fundamentally different.

‘I am someone who has already mastered artificial intelligence and is using it in practice, and these guys are just learning information about artificial intelligence…’

So, they dared to follow me, so I didn't neglect to ask questions.

‘If you want to get anything, ask hard questions, you carnivores.’

This means that parents are paying tuition in a rush.

I licked my tongue inwardly and looked pitifully at the back of their heads.

square square, square square.

But, again, the students liked this time more than the questions.

The students were terribly afraid of the question itself, and pathologically hated it, and even more hated being asked.

“Now, who can talk about the history of artificial intelligence like this and the recent progress of artificial intelligence?”

Professor Haeun Yoo asked the question in a voice without any expectations.

but

"Me!"

'Oh shit, that's a surprise.'

In the meantime, Lee Ji-soo, who had been working hard on writing as if dead in the seat next to me, raised his hand.

“Student Lee Ji-soo? Get up and answer me.”

Yoo Ha-eun and Lee Ji-soo's positive attitude seemed to be pleasing to him, so he smiled and nodded his head.

"Ah yes. To be honest, I don’t know much about artificial intelligence…”

Lee Ji-soo was the first to mention the Go match between Lee Se-dong and Alpha Gon, which everyone in the country already knew.

“I was in 6th grade at the time. My parents said that learning Go makes you smart, so I went to Baduk academy and saw the match.”

"i See. Keep talking.”

Lee Ji-soo, after posting a few useless editorials saying that the cost of the Go school was over 200,000 won, and that her parents felt burdened by the school fee.

“When Se-dong Lee, who was said to be the strongest Go player, loses to Alpha Gon twice in a row, I really thought that humans would be dominated by artificial intelligence in the future.”

"i See."

Professor Yoo Ha-eun continued to urge the conversation with a smile as if Lee Ji-soo had a cute appearance.“Anyway, I remember the turmoil on the news and on the internet after Se-dong Lee 9th dan lost 3-1 to Alphagon and took over Go, a domain unique to humans.”

In fact, I was rolling in the middle of the other world at the time, so I had no idea that artificial intelligence was such a craze.

‘When I first came back, I didn’t even know what a smartphone was…’

For me, Heldiphone was the best.

At that time, since everyone used feature phones, various companies such as Jinsung, Heldy, Vantech, and Motorola were swarming in Korea.

And among them, Heldi and Jinsung phones were the most popular in Korea.

'Because it lasted and was strong...'

Now that I think about it, I couldn't understand why everyone paid over 800,000 won for such a crude electronic device.

'At that time, I still had an analog sensibility...'

Even though Macple has excellent skills, isn't it almost squeezing out the 'emotion' to Jinseong, who has more advanced skills than him?

When I was immersed in memories for a while, Professor Yoo Ha-eun, who heard all of Lee Ji-eun's words, nodded and agreed with him.

"Yes. That was already eight years ago……”

Professor Yoo Ha-eun also kept her mouth shut for a moment as she recalled memories from years other than me.

I also knew better than anyone how chaotic the world was at that time because I reviewed all the newspapers published in the past at the library.

‘Because this is the first case where artificial intelligence has crossed the realm of humans…’

Of course, computers that are good at calculating things like chess or concave with few variables are advantageous, but the domain of inferring the future and making a ‘judgment’ based on it is an area that computers cannot do.

However, Gubble's 'Alphagon' managed to do it.

‘Of course, it was limited to Go, but it was shocking.’

In 2014, Gubble acquired the artificial intelligence startup Tipmind for 400 billion won.

Afterwards, Guble created a more advanced reinforcement learning algorithm through Tipmind and created AlphaGon in a year.

‘Because Alphagon practiced Go through repeated learning up to 30,000 times a day...’

Taking over in 2014 and beating Lee Se-dol in 2016, it was said that he practiced 32.85 million Go for nearly three years.

'You're such a crazy bastard.'

32850000

Almost every 2.88 seconds, one plate was placed.

‘It’s even more surprising that he left it with himself, not with an ordinary human.’

Alphagon has reviewed all the best notations performed by humans in the past. And I never lost because I practiced with 9-dan Go knights.

In the end, he had no choice but to play against himself.

It was said that the Alphagons were fighting each other, and a final decision was made in only 2.88 seconds.

“Ugh...”

The students shook their heads with a look of boredom.

Even if they couldn't make accurate calculations like me, they were able to make approximate inferences.

How fast is Alphagon's calculation speed?

“Why is everyone so surprised?”

Then, Professor Yoo Ha-eun opened her mouth again with a devilish smile.

“I haven’t even started yet.”
