[Service Development Team, Eunji Kwon] The dictionary definition of an influencer is a person who influences others. With the development of today's one-man media channels, anyone can become a creator and rise to so-called stardom by uploading interesting content. Influencers, who form a consensus through friendliness, communicate with their followers based on various contents.

Most chatbot systems still operate based on rules, but in order to implement natural conversations, you eventually need to use more complex language models such as BERT. However, there is a lot of recognition that BERT is heavy and complex, and we briefly introduced what the game platform company Roblox did to make it a service using BERT. Basically, servicing using a GPU...

The main task of AI chatbots is to answer questions such as explaining product information, telling schedules, and checking the weather. Perhaps if these technologies are maximized, we can reach'Super Human AI' for some of the human fields of'knowledge'. However, with "Human-Like AI", you need to worry about the overall human ability rather than maximizing specific functions...

I recently read about the relationship between human abilities and neural networks. Although it appears in the article, the way the human brain and neural networks operate have similar corners, but I don't think they need to be the same. Rather than imitating fish to swim, you can make a submarine, and make an airplane rather than imitate a bird to fly. (This is the author's example).

This is a video of IBM's emotional robot Nao-mi. [Summary of Contents] A robot that says he doesn't want to do with a person who asks to destroy a tower that has been difficult to build.

One of the recent trends is the super-giant model, i.e. the enormous increase in the number of parameters and the application of traditional learning methods. Apart from the "software capabilities" that the human brain shows, I wondered how much should I increase to reach the "hardware" capabilities of the human brain? (If you reach the same hardware capabilities, you can now see the algorithmic efficiency of human vs. AI...
