The other day,
I was chatting with Teacher Shi Guopeng about the era of AI and the rat race for academic qualifications,
This matter has become less meaningful,
It naturally led to a discussion about the rat race for degrees.
Speaking of this field,
Host Zhang Xuefeng,
I never expected that last night we heard the news of his passing,
My first reaction wasn't even to say he died young.
My first reaction was,
He has an 11-year-old daughter,
His daughter will have to face, throughout her life,
The absence of her father.
Such a fact and regret,
This enormous regret is irreparable.
Actually, we don't live for ourselves,
We live for those who care about us behind us,
We also need the people we take care of.
Those who need us to shield them,
Those who need our protection.
In this era of rapid AI development,
We can毫不夸张地 call it an unprecedented great change in a thousand years.
Now too many people have陷入 an unprecedented state of confusion.
In the past, our direction of effort was very clear,
It was simply to study hard,
Get into a good university,
Find a good job,
Strive to improve ourselves,
And we could live the life we wanted.
But now it's different,
The more powerful AI becomes.
Many skills and knowledge we used to be proud of,
Even the experience we worked hard to accumulate,
We can very quickly replicate and surpass.
Zhang Xuefeng's passing,
Is a wake-up call for us.
Is all this effort still meaningful?
Is it still worth it?
We are caught up in the confusion of the AI era,
Living with emptiness and exhaustion,
So we're still desperately overworking our bodies,
Drinking coffee when tired,
Drinking energy drinks,
Forcing ourselves to stay up late,
Staying up late is all in vain.
We've made both our bodies and minds doubly exhausted,
Always feeling we need to work hard at all costs,
But we forget,
Without physical health,
Without mental peace,
No matter how much effort we put in, it's all in vain,
Its meaning could vanish overnight.
So in the future, we might really not need to blindly compete for academic qualifications and hard work like before.
Compete for effort.
For us in the future,
What's truly worth competing for might be health—physical health and mental health,
If you can sleep, just sleep soundly.
Sleep is a panacea for physical and mental exhaustion,
It's probably the best way to repair the body and calm emotions,
A good night's sleep,
The emptiness in your heart will be filled,
Physical fatigue will be dispelled.
So the confusion you can't figure out will find answers,
Many things can be replaced.
But like a child losing a father,
This kind of regret can never be made up for,
So when you're tired,
Just go get a good sleep.
As for other things,
Wait until you wake up.
