Facebook released a new AI technology to help blind people "hear" photos-Facebook, blind-IT information

The advancement of technology, not only bring more convenience for people's lives, but also helped many disabled people have more ability to live independently, Facebook recently showed the latest artificial intelligence is one of the. Artificial intelligence has always been Google, IBM and a number of technology companies one of the positive developments in technology, and Facebook is no exception. Facebook recently announced a new artificial intelligence technology to help blind "listen" photos.

In order to show positive for artificial intelligence technology, Facebook set the AI Lab in Paris in June, and the recent Facebook announcement, is developing a recognizable image, description of photo content of artificial intelligence technology for the blind. This technique uses a deep learning techniques (deep learning techniques), which is a technology of Facebook has been used to identify an individual photo, deep learning techniques can identify millions of people in the photo. Facebook uses the same principle, so AI can recognize elements in the photo, and then sent to a computer in the speech tools, blind even if you do not see the photo, also can imagine photo views.

Various social networking sites such as Facebook, Instagram more and more popular nowadays, but brings to visually impaired users a lot of inconvenience in the use, although they can also use social-networking sites, photos upload photos, but in the photo or text is usually added by the others for help. Although there have been some interaction with the network tools can help the visually impaired, but still insufficient. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says social media extends to everyone, even the visually impaired who are Facebook has been one of the goals, and now AI can help us achieve this goal.

But Mark Zuckerberg admits, currently this technology is in early development stage, but AI is a very exciting of field, so we set next target, in future of 5-10 years within to construction a computer systems, this system has than human OK of senses perception-can see have more clear, and can identification people things, and can track people travel of trail, and can listening to have more clear, and more accurate of translation language, these are is human basic of feel.

Facebook 发表新AI技术 帮助盲人“听”照片 - Facebook,盲人 - IT资讯

科技的进步，不只为人们带来更便利的生活，同时也帮助许多身障人士有更多独立生活的能力，Facebook近日展示的最新人工智能技术就是其一。人工智能领域一直是Google、IBM等多家科技大厂积极发展的技术之一，而Facebook也不例外。Facebook在近期宣布了一项新的人工智能技术，可以帮助盲人「听」照片。

为了展示对于人工智能技术的积极，Facebook今年六月在巴黎设置了人工智能实验室，而近日Facebook又宣布，正在开发一款可以辨识图片，为盲人描述照片内容的人工智能技术。此技术用的是深度学习技法(deep learning techniques)，这是Facebook早已用来辨别个人照片的一种技术，深度学习技法可以辨识数以百万张照片里的人。Facebook利用相同的原理，让AI可以辨别照片中的元素，然后传送到计算机中的语音工具，让盲人即使看不到照片，也可以想象照片的景色。

现今各种社交网站如Facebook、Instagram越来越流行，但在使用上带给视障用户许多不便，尽管他们也可以使用社交网站，拍照上传照片，但照片里的内容或文字通常都是由旁人帮忙添加。虽然目前已有一些工具可以协助视障人士与网络的互动，但仍然不足。Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg表示，将社交媒体延伸到每一个人，甚至是视障人士身上是Facebook一直以来的目标之一，而现在AI可以帮助我们达到这个目标。

不过Mark Zuckerberg坦言，目前此技术尚处于初期开发阶段，但AI是一个非常激动人心的领域，因此我们订下一个目标，在未来的五到十年内要建构一个计算机系统，这个系统拥有比人类还好的感官知觉-可以看得更清楚、可以辨识人事物、可以追踪人们旅行的踪迹、可以听得更清楚、更准确的翻译语言，这些都是人类基本的感觉。
