財富精英勵志演講 第58期:信息技術的力量(7)

[00:01:50]So we believe that deep computing is a trend that will have a profound effect on commerce and on society. 我們相信深入計算是一個將對商業(yè)和社會產生深遠影響的趨勢。 [00:09:46]Of course a concept throwing big problems at computers is not a new idea. Its rules can be traced at the very origins of the industry. 當然把難題扔向計算機的觀念并不新鮮。它可以追溯到這種產業(yè)剛出現的時代。 [00:19:09]The difference today is that the systems are so much more powerful 但是今天的不同之處是現在的系統非常強大， [00:23:30]and so much more affordable that they can be used by businesses and governments and institutions of all sizes. 價格又極為公道，以致于能夠在各種商業(yè)和政府部門、各種科研機構中廣泛應用。 [00:32:34]The second major development in Information Technology is of course for a topic, already discussed here this evening, 就象今天晚上已經談到的，信息技術第二個重要的發(fā)展是全球網絡的崛起， [00:41:23]and that is the rise of global networks, like the Internet to create a network world, or what some call a network economy. 比如 Internet，它創(chuàng)造了一個網上世界，也有些人稱之為網上經濟。 [00:51:04]About 16 million people use the Internet today. And the estimates are that that number will grow to 500 million, 如今有 1600 萬人使用 Internet。估計這個數字很快就會升至 5 億， [00:59:38]and perhaps someday to a billion. Now what will these connected people going to do, or they want to do? 也許有一天還會達到 10 億。那么這些上網的人打算做些什么，或者說想做些什么呢? [01:15:10]Not too long ago, people in my industry thought that the action was going to be an information dissemination - 不久以前，我們這個領域的人認為網上活動將會是信息發(fā)布 -- [01:23:51]news, weathers, sports scores, online magazines called E-zines, and short consumer information. 新聞、天氣預報、體育比分、在線雜志(被稱作 E-zine)以及簡短的消費信息。 [01:33:41]IBM has had a different view for some time. IBM 對此持不同觀點已經有一段時間了。 [01:36:15]We believe the real potential of the network world is for conducting transactions of all kinds, between parties of all kinds, 我們認為網絡世界的真正潛力在于引導所有不同團體之間的不同種類的交易， [01:48:26]an effect that seems to be what is happening. 網上現在正在發(fā)生的情況似乎就是如此。
