It's hot, isn't it?。This is the forecast for today's maximum temperature of 37 degrees Celsius.。Wow! It seems like something like that、38℃ is already familiar。39No one is surprised anymore because we have heard about temperatures above ℃ several times on the news and weather forecasts.、That's surprising。

Sometimes I chat with AI。This is for me to get used to AI.。While chatting、I don't seem to understand what you mean when you ask about AI.、I often feel that。He answers simple questions in surprisingly well-written sentences.、If you ask me some more details,、Only the text is normal、I keep getting empty and “stupid” answers.。Moreover, I looked at her from above and said, “Did you find this helpful?”。

What does that mean?、I read it in the digital version of a certain newspaper.、I was convinced by the interview article with Professor Mutsumi Imai of Keio University.。Simply put,、This is what it means。
“Even if the word melon is recorded in the AI,、It's just a statistical word、The meaning is not understood。but、It's a big fruit for humans.、Experiences and facts that include various aspects such as sweetness、It is connected to the melon itself to create the "meaning (of the word)" (this is apparently called "symbolic grounding" in cognitive science).。That's not the case with AI.。(The way people memorize words is the exact opposite of humans)
AI is before and after the word “melon”、It's just learning what words are ``statistically'' arranged.、If you deviate from this, the sentence becomes meaningless (the article has been shortened)."

As expected、That's what it feels like。I feel something similar with image generation AI.。At first, you might be surprised and say, “Wow!”、If you do it a few times, you'll start to feel like maybe it's stupider than I thought.。I don't have the feeling of "thinking".。They just come out one after another。
If you think about it、Even new generation computers、That's not what I'm thinking about, per se.。However、Has a huge memory (and never forgets)、Unusually fast learning ability、Making full use of the weapon called “statistics”、"(Theoretical、This means that they are able to quickly draw "rational" conclusions.。For that person, it would take 1000 years.、Perform complex calculations in a few seconds。The one who connected that computing power to language generation was、It was chat GPT.。Because I already had that foundation.、It's quickly becoming popular。
AI is just an extension of a tool (for now)。Originally our “hands”、How we use those “hands” is our own problem.。if we are stupid、AI also has the potential to become a terrifying tool.。

It's not raining。(heavy rain、I'm sorry to those who are suffering from floods) but I hope it rains a little bit.。Hydrangeas in the garden, etc.、The flowers that want water in particular are drooping their necks。

Because it's not raining so much、What is the water storage rate at dams in the metropolitan area this year?、Apparently there's no problem at all。Even in small places, it's around 80%、93% in the Tone River system、I said it in the weather forecast。It was falling on the mountains。

but、That there is no rain on flat ground、That's how the temperature gets higher、This means that the cooler will be left on every night。Green curtains are also water-filled。You need electricity to pump water。How lucky it is to have moderate rain、I really feel it。
Even if there is water in front of you, it cannot be drunk or used in mud.。The flooded water can only be waited for it to recede.。The amount of seawater has increased due to global warming、Countries and regions are beginning to be submerged。

It is said that abnormal weather also has the effect of global warming.。Japan will turn carbon dioxide emissions to "virtually zero" by 2050、It declares "carbon neutral"。To reduce emissions to zero is、Make the amount absorbed by plants and the amount generated by economically、In that sense、It's not that it won't happen at all。
Economic and industrial perspectives do not seem to be very likely to achieve this、Ironically, the declining birthrate has progressed、If the decline in the industry progresses due to population decline、It may be achievable。In that sense, it could be contradictory to "measures to reduce birthrate" and "measures to global warming"。
It is necessary to bring together "wisdom"。Knowledge is the origin of wisdom、Because it's about knowing the facts、It is undoubtedly important to deepen your research。on the other hand、Research on global warming itself alone、The research itself is not progressing。Research and development of new observation equipment is also essential.、Thinking from a new perspective is also important。It's not that you just need to stand out one of them.。
but、In Japan, specific research is carried out.、We are currently implementing policies that only spend a certain period of time.。Research funding etc.、It's a bit sparse in terms of Japan's GDP、The reason for placing it in the lower position of tax use is、I would say that it is longer than the period from election to the next election.、Maybe it's because they don't have a long-term (?) vision?。Sowing seeds、I know it's hard to water、It's already dying。　

It's hot、How many times have you said this year?。When you say the word "hot"、I feel really hot、I try to say "It's warm"、It's strange because I feel like it feels 2-3 degrees lower when I do that.。everyone、How are you doing?

And yet、News and weather forecasts have been repeatedly calling out ``dangerous heat.''。Just hearing it makes me feel breathless, as if it were 2-3 degrees higher.、It's a kind of "warning"、It can't be helped。Every day, your smartphone will receive notifications such as ``Please refrain from exercising outside'' and ``Do not go out unless it is urgent.''。

According to news etc.、It seems that ``dangerous heat'' is spreading all over the world.。Due to the heat wave "Charon" that occurred in North Africa、In places like Italy, temperatures have already been above 40°C for several days.、in a few more days、Rome is said to be on track to surpass Europe's record high temperature of 48.8 degrees Celsius.。In China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, temperatures have already exceeded 50 degrees Celsius.。To be honest, the temperature is unimaginable.。
　In such a place、As for whether everyone is using a cooler?、maybe not。For those who do not have a cooler (for those who are out of order or cannot use it for economic or other reasons)、I think it's a real "dangerous heat"。Was it about ten years ago?、Similar heatwaves have hit Europe and the Americas.、The memory of many people dying at that time came back to me.。
In southern Ukraine、Infectious diseases such as cholera have occurred due to flooding after the dam was destroyed.、It is reported that it is spreading in even worse environments such as trenches.。I'm thinking, "Maybe if we're at war!"、Only one person in the world can stop it、The doubly frightening reality is that Mr. Putin is the only one who is crazy.。

While swimming in the sea in the hot sun、Things like when I was a child, I would collect the fruits of the hamanasu that grew in clusters along the coastline.、In this abnormal world, it feels like a dream.。in any case、Summer has just begun (I'm sure the rainy season hasn't even ended yet).。Please enjoy this summer safely.。
