On the evening of October 13, Beijing time, IBM Chairman, President and CEO Ginni Rometty held a keynote speech at the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University this evening on the theme of “Transformation, Coming to the Cognitive Business Era”. And started a dialogue with Qian Yingyi, Dean of the School of Economics and Management.

Luo Ruilan joined IBM as a systems engineer in 1981 and was president and CEO of the company in 2012. She is also the first female CEO in IBM's 100-year history.

In the speech, Luo Ruilan first mentioned the two key words of this speech - digital transformation and cognitive computing. She pointed out that in recent years, big data, blockchain and other technologies have become hot spots in the industry, and a large amount of information has been generated in the last two years. Most of the information, such as pictures and videos, is unstructured. In the past, computers were powerless for such problems. The emergence of IBM cognitive systems was to solve the problem of digestion and interpretation of such information.

Cognitive computing systems do not require programming and are self-learning, but Luo Ruilan does not agree to equating IBM's cognitive (cogniTIon) system with artificial intelligence (AI). She believes that artificial intelligence is only part of the cognitive system, and cognitive systems are still Contains many other aspects.

Later, she introduced the cognitive system using IBM's Watson as an example. Watson is well known after participating in the American question-and-answer program "The Dangerous Edge." But Watson's ability is not just that, IBM also uses it in the medical industry to help doctors diagnose patients' diseases. In the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, Watson has been able to make the same decisions as 99% of doctors. IBM has Watson read 25 million pages of literature, and now it has been able to read patient medical records to help doctors diagnose and treat patients.

Speaking of the relationship between IBM and China, Luo Ruilan talked about previous cooperation in traditional industries such as personal computers and banking. As for artificial intelligence Watson, IBM said it has already cooperated with 21 hospitals in Hangzhou on cancer treatment. In addition, IBM has promoted the “Green Horizon” project in China, which uses artificial intelligence to predict and solve environmental pollution problems in China.

After the speech, Qian Yingyi, Dean of the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University, started a dialogue with Luo Ruilan. The conversations between the two sides included the transformation of IBM business, artificial intelligence and cooperation with Apple.

Luo Ruilan said that IBM has been transforming from a hardware company to a technology company with 90% of its business as software and services. IBM has sold $8 billion in business in recent years and acquired more than 50 companies, using most of its revenue. In research and development and transformation.

Unlike Hawking and Musk, who are cautious about artificial intelligence, Luo Ruilan believes that artificial intelligence is not intended to replace human beings, but to enhance human intelligence, and human beings should be a positive relationship. IBM's cognitive system will help humans make more decisions in the next five years.

When talking about his relationship with Apple, Luo Ruilan laughed and said that he and Apple CEO Tim Cook were very young when they first met. IBM partnered with Apple two years ago to provide airlines with Apple hardware containing IBM software. And IBM has also developed several applications on the Apple platform to help business users use Mac computers quickly and securely.

Finally, in answering the students' questions, Luo Ruilan focused on the recent hot blockchain technology. She believes that blockchain technology can bring changes to the supply chain. IBM provides a lot of technical code in this area, and has established industry alliances with many companies. The distributed database technology of the blockchain can play a huge role in financing, anti-money laundering, shipping and so on.

She also said that the main role of the blockchain is not in digital currency (such as bitcoin), but in the management of the world to save hundreds of billions of dollars. In addition, the blockchain can be applied to autopilot technology in the future, and it can use distributed databases to prevent security problems caused by hackers tampering with upgrade packages.

After the dialogue, Luo Ruilan presented Qian Yingyi with a book entitled "Cognitive Computing and Artificial Intelligence" edited by the IBM Institute for Business Value.

Water-cooled capacitor

Water-cooled capacitor is supercapacitor is a capacitor with a capacity of thousands of farads.According to the principle of capacitor, capacitance depends on the distance between the electrode and electrode surface area, in order to get such a large capacitance, as far as possible to narrow the distance between the super capacitor electrode, electrode surface area increased, therefore, through the theory of electric double layer and porous activated carbon electrode.
