a few years ago I began working on helping¹ computers to generate human-like stories from sequences of images. 我几年前开始致力于从图像序列帮助电脑产生类似人类的故事。

So, one day, I was working with my computer to ask it what it thought about a trip to Australia. 所以，有一天，我正在用电脑工作时，询问它对澳大利亚之行的看法。

It took a look at the pictures, and it saw a koala. 它看了看图片，看到一只树袋熊。

It didn't know what the koala was, but it said it thought it was an interesting-looking creature. 它不知道树袋熊是什么，但电脑表示它认为树袋熊看起来是很有趣的生物。

Then I shared with it a sequence of images about a house burning down. 然后我与电脑分享一系列关于房屋烧毁的图像。

It took a look at the images and it said, "This is an amazing view! This is spectacular!" 电脑看了一下图片说：“这是个惊人的景观！这很壮观！”

It sent chills down my spine². 它使我的脊背发冷。

It saw a horrible, life-changing and life-destroying event and thought it was something positive. 电脑看到一个可怕的、改变生活和毁灭生命的事件，并认为这是积极的事情。

I realized that it recognized the contrast, the reds, the yellows, and thought it was something worth remarking on positively³. 我意识到电脑认识到红色和黄色的对比，并认为这是值得积极评价的事情。

And part of why it was doing this was because most of the images I had given it were positive images. 部分原因是因为我输入电脑的大部分是积极的图像。

That's because people tend to share positive images when they talk about their experiences. 那是因为人们谈论自己的经历时，倾向于分享积极的图像。

When was the last time you saw a selfie at a funeral? 你上次在葬礼上看到自拍照是什么时候？
