翻译考试：智能机时代来临
CONTENT：Two things are clear. The first is that smart machines are evolving at
breakneck speed. Moore's law—that the computing power available for a given
price doubles about every 18 months—continues to apply. This power is leaping
from desktops into people's pockets. More than 1.1 billion people own
smartphones and tablets. Manufacturers are putting smart sensors into all sorts
of products. The second is that intelligent machines have reached a new social
frontier: knowledge workers are now in the eye of the storm, much as
stocking-weavers were in the days of Ned Ludd, the original Luddite. Bank clerks
and travel agents have already been consigned to the dustbin by the thousand;
teachers, researchers and writers are next. The question is whether the creation
will be worth the destruction.
