"Elf Pokémon GO", a global mobile game, has won the love of countless players with its concept of encouraging players outdoors in 2016. However, who would have thought that this seemingly simple game has now become a huge geographical space artificial intelligence training ground? Niantic recently revealed this shocking secret, let us re -examine the technical power behind this game, and its potential future applications.
"Pokemon GO" in 2016 was regarded as the most innocent game experience, encouraging players to walk through the community and meet strangers. In 2024, this game quietly turned into an amazing geographical space artificial intelligence training ground.
The Niantic development team recently disclosed an amazing secret: Over the years, millions of players have actually helped train a huge geographical space artificial intelligence system while playing games. This technology, known as the visual positioning system (VPS), is helping AI to learn complex three -dimensional space information through the player's daily game behavior.
The most clever thing is that this process is almost unknown. Just like the Internet text training ChatGPT, every operation of players in the game, especially the use of the "Elf playground" function to fix the location of the virtual elves, is unknowingly AI "feeding" data.
However, behind the potential application prospects of this technology, there is also a possibility of disturbing. Network intelligence analyst Elise Thomas pointed out that this technology is likely to be eventually used by military.
Imagine that if someone tells you in 2016 that you capture the game behavior of the elf, one day will become part of the world's largest intelligent space intelligent training plan, what will you do?
This may be the weird magic of science and technology development: the seemingly harmless entertainment today may be the key to changing the world tomorrow.
From simple games to complex AI training grounds, the transformation of "Pokemon GO" has triggered people's profound thinking on scientific and technological ethics and future applications. This reminds us that behind the seemingly simple entertainment, there may be huge technical potential and potential risks, and we need to be vigilant and reflected.
