¡ª¡ª"But now? The toilet seat is no longer a toilet cover. It must not only be easy to use, but also look good, and it must be imported.
People have shifted from the pursuit of practicality to the pursuit of beauty, quality, style, and more spiritual things.
More and more things, it does not pursue practicality. For example, candles, logically speaking, who still uses candles now?
Its existence is at most a decorative function, but the annual sales of candle companies are still very high.
In other words, people's needs are changing. If you can only provide basic functional things, and you can't use your right brain to give this thing more sense of value, then your products may struggle.
Such progress is inevitable. Just like marriage, the first marriage in the past was to reproduce offspring. However, later on, marriage requires love and compatible views.
Even the initial need - to have children - is no longer necessary. "
Chu Lihua paused, looked in Qing Yunfei's direction, the corners of her lips slightly raised.
After a long time, Yaolivas said. "It sounds reasonable, what about the second and third?"
¡ª¡ª"The second is the lower human labor costs in developing countries in Southeast Asia. Now the communication costs are almost zero, which has resulted in a large number of knowledge outsourcing businesses.
In the past, China was a cheap labor market for developed countries such as the United States, but now the rise of Southeast Asian countries has changed all this.
For example, the annual salary of a computer programmer in the United States usually reaches more than 70,000 U.S. dollars, but the same job can be done faster and better by a young man in India. The price is only 125 dollars for this American programmer. Give him $300 and he'll do the job.
Of course, these American companies are willing to outsource this work. This used to be an opportunity for the Chinese, but now, if the Chinese are given such a low price, no one will do it.
The CEO of General Electric India said in an interview that jobs in any English-speaking country can be done in India, the only limit is your imagination.
Not only in India, but also in the whole world, a large number of knowledge-based businesses are being outsourced.
For example, Intel is also setting up a software company in Russia, Hungarian architects are drawing design drawings for a California design company, accountants in the Philippines are doing audits for European consulting companies, and a large number of our Chinese designers are doing audit work for Philips in the Netherlands. design.
The price of the same job in other countries is only 110. Of course, such things will be outsourced.
Therefore, if you are still focusing on left-brain work, then your competitor is not Xiao Ming from the neighbor¡¯s house, but Xiao Ming from another country who is more diligent than you and asks for a lower price.
Of course, the second point may not have much to do with us, but the third point has a lot to do with it.
The third reason is the development of artificial intelligence.
Did you find out? Any logical task that requires memorization, computers can do better than us.
There is a saying that software is the forklift of the mind, it will shovel most of the work that requires the left brain.
For example, we used to think that programmers, doctors, and lawyers are all high-end professions, but one of the characteristics of these professions is that they use a lot of logic ability.
Doctors need to follow a series of decision-making judgments when diagnosing, do you have a runny nose, do you have a cold, what to do if you have it, what to do if you don¡¯t, whether your indicators are high or low, and then evaluate the results Make inferences and diagnose what the condition is.
These are actually what computers are good at, so now a large number of medical software has begun to appear. I believe that it will not be long before people can use software to diagnose their own diseases.
Simply put, there are three forces that make left-brain thinking less and less important. One is material abundance, the other is global knowledge outsourcing, and the other is the development of artificial intelligence.
These three irresistible forces that are taking place have pushed us from the information age to the concept age, so we must learn to think with the right brain.
If we want to find our means of livelihood in such a conceptual age, we must clearly answer three questions.
The first one is whether the work we can do is to outsource personnel at a lower cost than ours. This outsourced personnel may not be people around us, but may be competitors from another country.
Second, in the future, will our work computers be better and faster than ours, and are we competing with computers for jobs.
Third, in such an era that does not pursue practicality, do the services we provide go beyond practical needs and meet the spiritual needs of users? Can users arouse a scene imagination when enjoying our services? .
If we meet the above conditions while doing things, then our development must be getting better and better, just like getting on an upward elevator, we will get a good result if we work a little harder.
If these conditions are not met, it is like taking a downward elevator. Even if we work very hard, we will still rise slowly. This is the power of the trend.
Just like blind massage, it used to be very hot. But later, many healthy people pretended to be blind people for massage. What's more terrible is that all kinds of artificial intelligence massage instruments can not only massage. It also has various functions such as various magnetic therapy and far-infrared ray physiotherapy.
If I had learned massage for the blind at that time, perhaps, as technology became more and more advanced in the future, my job would be lost sooner or later. "
¡ª¡ª"So you also considered blind massage before? I thought about it before, but I didn't go because I was more interested in literature. I read a lot of stories about blind people. I know, I can't follow the crowd."
Yaolivas felt like he had found a bosom friend.
¡ª¡ª"Well, my most subjective thought at that time was whether girls would suffer a loss if they learned massage. Haha, now that I think about myself at that time, it was too narrow, but it also gave me a different new direction.
If I went to learn blind massage, I would go to the massage parlor as assigned, and then there would be no more. I will always live like that. "
Chu Lihua was very emotional.
¡ª¡ª"Then if artificial intelligence will replace many industries in the future, where is the way out for us? Chuchu, how to use the right brain? Can you be more specific?"
Kang Xuming seemed to see new hope.
Chu Lihua scratched her head, sorted out the thoughts in her mind, and then continued, "It can be summed up as three senses and three forces. Three senses, three forces.
The three senses refer to the sense of design, sense of entertainment and sense of meaning. The three powers refer to story power, communication power and empathy power. "(Remember this site URL: www.hlnovel.com
