二、When MartinRoth startedas aforest rangerin the1980s,his jobwas tocare for the forestto ensurecontinuityfor decades,even centuries.Now,with climatechange,its moreabout planningfor anuncertainfuture.Its disastermanagement,“says Roth,for whomthe3,000acres of forest serveas testinggroundfor high-tech solutions,earning himthe nicknamedigital forestranger.”After asevere storm,the clockstarts ticking:Damaged treesshould beremoved beforethe arrivalofbark beetles,which growin deadtrees andcan destroyentire forests.While itonce tookRoth about
2.5(无人机)hours tocover anacre onfoot,drones nowlet himsurvey theentire3,000acres inseveral days,so hecan quicklylocate damagedtrees,inform ownersof affectedplots,and sendupdates toworkers.Roths explorationgoes beyonddrones.His recentproject iscombining bodycamera withAL.Usually youmark thetrees,theyre cutdown,and youhave noidea howmuch woodyoull get,whatquality,and whichspecies Jhe explains.AI nowsees throughhis bodycam,recognizes tree species,estimates woodproduction,and sendsreal-time information to hisphone.Since upto halfof Europeantree speciesare unsuitedto risingtemperatures andextended dryperiods,Roth has also begunexperimenting withnew species,planting themin smallgroups andkeeping trackofthem inhis system.As forestareas expand,interventions areneeded,but therearent enoughemployees tokeepit allstraight.Either Iknow it,orthecomputer knowsit,or noone knowsit andits lost,“he says.Roths expertisein tacklingthe challengesof modernforestry withtechnology isincreasingly soughtafter-colleagues reachout for advice,and helectures on the topicat universities.But hewarns thattechnologycan neverreplace awander throughthe forest:I shouldnever believethat thedigital twinisreality.I alwayshave todo areality check.”

三、Researchers fromGoogle havebuilt anew weather prediction modelthat combinesmachine learningwithconventional techniques,potentially yieldingmore accurateforecasts.The model,called NeuralGCManddescribed ina paperin Naturetoday,bridges adivide thatsgrown amongweatherpredictionexpertsin the last severalyears.The conventionalmodels,which havedominated weatherprediction forthelast50years,use(方程)complex equationsto modelchanges in the atmosphereand giveforecasts,but they are extremelyslowand expensiveto run.Experts aredivided onwhich toolwill bemost reliablegoing forward.But thenewmodel fromGoogle insteadattempts tocombine thetwo,“Its notsort ofphysics vs.AI.If sreallyphysics andAI together,says StephanHoyer,an AIresearcher atGoogle Researchand aco-author of thepaper.NeuralGCM shows that whenwe combineAI with the conventionalphysics-based models,we can(模拟)」dramatically improvethe accuracyand speedof atmosphericclimate simulationssaid StephanHoyer.The papersaid NeuralGCMproved faster,more accurateand usedless computingpowerin testsagainst atraditional forecastingmodel basedon atmosphericphysics toolscalled X-SHiELD.In onetest,NeuralGCM identifiedalmost thesame numberof tropicalstorms asconventionalextreme weathertrackers did,and twicethe numberof X-SHiELD.In anothertest basedon temperature(湿度)and humiditylevels during2020,the errorrate wasbetween15and50percent less.Peter Dueben,another co-author of the latestpaper,said Al-only modelswere oftenviewed(设计)dubiously byexperts because they werenot basedon mathematicalequations devisedfromphysics.However,the combinationofthephysics-based modelwiththedeep learningmodel“seems toget,the bestof bothworlds hesaid,adding that the approachwas a“big steptowards climatemodelling withmachinelearning.The appetiteis therefbr AIJPeter says.But Ithink alot ofpeople stillare waitingtosee whathappens/

四、Productive artificialintelligence isincreasingly makingits presencefelt inclassrooms.Its notjuststudents whoare turningto AIfor help;teachers arealso gettinginvolved.Many teachersare nowusingnew AI grading toolswhich offerstudents speedierfeedback and more opportunitiesto practice.Whenapplied correctly,AI assistantsare believedto bringabout benefitsand removeprejudice from theevaluation ofstudent work.(面向教育的)Education-oriented AIstartups typicallyprovide gradingservices mainlyinwriting-heavy subjectslike Englishand history,and tosome extentin mathand science.These AI-basedsystems generatea scoreand offernegative commentson variouselements suchas topicsentences,persuasive argumentsand more.Teachers have the optionto usethe Ai-generated feedbackas aguide ordirectlypass itontostudents.However,not everyoneis convincedthat AIis suitablefor grading.Some peoplehold theview thatthetechnology isntreliable enoughfor vitalgrading,which canhave asignificant impacton students9college admissionsand otherlife-changing decisions.Critics pointout thatcurrent AI tools canhaveshortcomings orbe overlystrict ingrading.Alex Kotran,co-founder ofthe AIEducation Project,emphasized,It shouldnot be used for grading.It willweaken publictrust inthe educationsystem.”To testhow thesegraders function,a12th-grade Englishpaper froma WallStreet Journalcolleague(压迫)was putinto threedifferent AI tools.The paper,an essayabout theoppression ofOphelia inShakespeares“Hamlet thatoriginally receiveda97%in2013,got variousscores.AutoMark gaveit97%at firstand later100%,while ClassCompanion ratedit62%and CoGraderjudged it85%,The resultswereconfusing.In conclusion,AI grading tools offerboth opportunitiesand challengesintheclassroom.As AItechnologycontinues togrow,it willbe crucialto strikea balancebetween gettingmuch ofits benefitsandpreserving thehuman touchthat isessential foreffective teachingand learning.
