Today I will take you to have an online tour. Come on with me to the Maldives (马尔代夫). It’s a group of very small islands in the Indian Ocean, near Sri Lanka. There are about 1,200 islands and there are people living on about 200 of them. About 530,000 people live in the Maldives and over 230,000 of them are on the capital island, Male.

Lots of the islands in the Maldives have different kinds of hotels on them, so tourists can go and enjoy their trips.

In the Maldives, you can move around in the following ways: by domestic flight (国内航班), by seaplane or by dhoni. The dhoni is the old Maldivian boat. Travelling by dhoni takes longer, but it’s much cheaper and more convenient. You can easily find these old boats there.

The water is very clear, so when you are underwater, you can see as far as more than 50 meters! There are many excellent diving (潜水) schools. They speak many languages, so you can find someone to help you. Of course, that’s not all you can do on these beautiful islands. You can watch whale and dolphin shows, go fishing, or visit the towns.

Should we hand over every job to machines? Should we develop non-human minds that might become more intelligent than humans and finally replace (代替) us? Should we risk losing control of our own future? These questions were asked by many scientists in a science meeting.

In most people’s minds, the rapid development of AI is of great help to humans. For example, AI has helped humans develop new medicines and design new materials to help with climate change.

When ChatGPT was first open to the public, it gained a million users in just one week; with that number quickly growing to 100 million within two months. It was widely used to do things like writing articles and creating speeches.

However, some have started to worry. Will AI go against humans one day? Will AI take our place and all the people lose their jobs? Will bad people use AI to harm others?

These worries make scientists stop developing AI and start to think about better ways to use this technology. Most of them agree that laws should be made to make sure that AI is used safely.

Many governments are already taking action, though differently. For example, the UK, as well as the USA, opens its arms for AI without any rules other than present ones because it regards it as a huge market. But Germany is more careful. It puts uses of AI in different areas into different levels of risk. Uses in some areas are not allowed, and companies that break the rules will be punished (惩罚).

Making laws is the government’s duty. For us common people, it may be more important to think about how we can work more effectively with AI.
