Chapter 242 56G

"I will send you three documents another day. You can decide whether you want to minor in psychology after reading them."

After analyzing the basic psychology he knew to Gu Ningshan, Wu Bin said one last thing.

After hearing this, Gu Ningshan immediately waved her hands and said, "Then don't wait for another day. I just want to see it now."

"OK, let's go. I'll go back to the dormitory to get the computer."

Wu Bin knew that Gu Ningshan liked to act vigorously and resolutely in academic matters as he did, so he immediately stood up and walked out of the Mushroom Pavilion.

After the two of them rode to the boys' dormitory building together, Wu Bin parked the car and said to Gu Ningshan, "Then wait for me here for a while. I will come down soon."

"Wait a minute, take these two books with you. I've already read them, and I think you might be interested in the contents." Gu Ningshan took out the two heavy books from her schoolbag and handed them to Wu Bin.

"Well, the book you recommended must be worth reading."

Taking the two books happily, Wu Bin waved at Gu Ningshan and walked into the boys' dormitory.

While walking on the stairs, Wu Bin glanced at the covers of two books. The blue one was called "THE EMOTION MACHINE" and the other yellow one was called "the singularity is near". point is close)》

Among them, the cover of the book "The Singularity is Near" has the rather eye-catching sentence "In 2045, when computing intelligence surpasses humans" printed on the cover, which looks quite like a headline on a public account.

But below this sentence are also printed such heavyweight recommendations as ["One of the most blogged books of the year selected by the New York Times"] and [Recommended by Bill Gates, Bill Joy and others] .

For Bill Gates, who is known to the whole world, Bill Joy is not so famous, but for people who study computers, this person is a legend.

When the general technology field was just emerging, this big man was involved in the work on the earliest computer operating systems such as BSD, Unix, and NFS.

But to say that his most outstanding achievement must be the vi editor he created in 1976. It can be said that its functions in system and server management are absolutely unmatched by those graphical editors.

‘If this is not a gimmick and can be strongly recommended by these two big guys, it should be a pretty powerful book. ’

After sighing inwardly, Wu Bin opened the door of the dormitory.

The other three people in the dormitory were not there, so Wu Bin directly picked up the laptop on his desk and walked downstairs.

Taking the computer, the two of them rode to the relatively petty-bourgeois Volute Time Tea Restaurant in HKUST. The environment here is relatively quiet and it is a good place to chat while eating.

After ordering two portions of claypot rice, the two of them found a corner seat and sat down.

"Wait a mininute."

After Wu Bin finished speaking, he opened a folder named [Liter] in the D drive.

"I……"

The moment Wu Bin opened the folder, Gu Ningshan, who was watching from the sidelines, almost spat out the tea she had just drank. The dense pile of sub-folders almost dazzled her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Wu Bin looked at Gu Ningshan and asked strangely.

"How many documents have you saved in the computer..." Gu Ningshan asked in surprise.

"I really haven't noticed this." Wu Bin said and clicked on the properties of the [Liter] folder.

"..."

Gu Ningshan, who came over to take a look, was stunned for a long time and asked: "You only have documents in this plate?"

"Well, everything else is installed on the E drive."

"..."

After another period of silence, Gu Ningshan uttered two words, "Excellent."

Because what she saw on the computer screen was such a string of data.

[Space occupied: 56.3GB, (60.854.680.173 bytes)]

[Contains 21.296 files, 1292 folders]

A full 56GB of academic documents! Gu Ningshan was simply stunned. She thought she was already very good at reading literature, but compared to the person in front of her, she was a little too good at reading literature.

"I'm curious about what criteria you used to download these documents?" Gu Ningshan asked after taking a sip of tea and feeling a little more stable.

"Standards?" Wu Bin thought for a while, "There are no standards. I mainly scan all the documents in the mainstream journals of the day every day. When I see topics related to my major or interesting, I will spend a minute or two to read similar topics. The core content is the title, author, unit, and pictures of the paper.”

He pointed to the computer screen and said, "I will download the ones that are really interesting, and then organize them into categories according to the content."

Then he pointed to a folder with the folder "Five Stars" and said: "I will store all the documents that I am particularly interested in in this folder. After completing the experiment, I will take the time to read them in detail. Generally, I am more interested in this folder." I like to classify by research direction, but sometimes I also classify by author.”

"For example, these folders." Wu Bin pointed to a few folders with English names written on them. "I am very interested in the relevant research of these professors recently, and I will put their relevant articles during this period. Read them all and analyze their overall research ideas and mental processes. I also recommend you try this, it is easy to get inspiration from them."

"Hmm...sounds good." Gu Ningshan nodded seriously.

Then Wu Bin quickly opened several folders in succession, pointed at the three papers inside and said, "These are the three papers I want to show you. Do you want to read them now?"

"Yeah." Gu Ningshan nodded.

"Okay, let's take a look." After Wu Bin said that, he pushed the computer in front of Gu Ningshan and took out "the singularity is near" he just got from her.

The two of them spent the whole afternoon in the restaurant together, exchanging their thoughts or questions about their reading from time to time.

At dinner time, Gu Ningshan took a deep breath and looked at Wu Bin and said, "Can you send these three papers to my email?"

"Of course." Wu Bin smiled. "Are you interested?"

"Well, it seems quite interesting." Gu Ningshan nodded.

Hearing that Gu Ningshan was interested in psychology, Wu Bin became excited. He closed the book and said, "Actually, I think those psychologists who are really involved in the field of neuroscience understand the mathematics and statistics behind it better than those who have so-called experience in artificial intelligence development. principle."

"Well, this is indeed true." Gu Ningshan nodded affirmatively, "Professor August from Carnegie told me one thing, that is, the psychology departments of some universities in the United States have opened courses in computational neuroscience at the graduate level. courses, some colleges and universities even build applied computer majors on the basis of psychology departments.”

"Really~" Wu Bin pointed with his index finger, "Actually, when you finish reading those three documents, you will find that people who study psychology are extremely curious. What technology can help them with their research? If they understand people’s mental processes, they will learn techniques.”

"For example, the modern mathematical statistics theory was the first to be applied on a large scale in psychology, because those people have always been curious about whether people's IQ and personality can be accurately measured."

After hearing this, Gu Ningshan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "If they really find out, I will be the first to think about the IQ gap between you and me."
