How does machine learning work? 机器学习到底是怎么工作的？
Sebastian Thrun: So, artificial intelligence and machine learning is about 60 years old and has not had a great day in its past until recently . 塞巴斯蒂安·斯伦（ST）: 人工智能和机器学习 已经有60年的历史了, 直到最近才初露锋芒。
recently:adv.最近;新近;
And the reason is that today, we have reached a scale of computing and datasets that was necessary to make machines smart. 原因在于,当今, 我们的计算和数据集的规模 已经达到了机器智能化 所必需的水平。

So here's how it works. 它的工作原理是这样的。
If you program a computer today, say, your phone, then you hire software engineers that write a very, very long kitchen recipe , like, "If the water is too hot, turn down the temperature. 假设今天你想编写一个计算机程序, 给自己打造一部智能手机, 那么你会聘请软件工程师 编写很长很长的（类似）烹饪食谱, 比如“如果水太热,请调低温度,

That's why a software engineer makes so much money. 这就是为什么软件工程师 赚那么多钱。
software engineer:n.软件工程师;
The new thing now is that computers can find their own rules. 现在的新现象是 电脑可以找到自己的规则。
So instead of an expert deciphering , step by step , a rule for every contingency , what you do now is you give the computer examples and have it infer its own rules. 所以不再是专家一步一步地 为每一个偶然事件破译出规则, 而现在的做法是 给计算机提供实例, 让计算机推断出自己的规则。

A really good example is AlphaGo, which recently was won by Google . 一个很好的例子是谷歌 刚获胜的阿尔法围棋。
Google:谷歌;谷歌搜索引擎;
Normally , in game playing, you would really write down all the rules, but in AlphaGo's case, the system looked over a million games and was able to infer its own rules and then beat the world's residing Go champion. 通常,在比赛中, 你会真的写下全部规则, 而对于阿尔法围棋, 它的系统观摩了 超过一百万次的比赛, 并且能够推断出自己的规则, 然后击败了当下的世界围棋冠军。
Normally:adv.正常地;通常地,一般地; residing:属于;

Google has looked at over a hundred billion web pages. 谷歌已经浏览了超过千亿的网页。
No person can ever study a hundred billion web pages. 也没有人类可以做到这一点。
So as a result , the computer can find rules that even people can't find. 因此,电脑能找到 连人类也找不到的规则。
as a result:结果;

You don't spend the first 18 years giving kids a rule for every contingency and set them free and they have this big program. 你不会把前18年用来 给孩子创建每个细节的规则, 再放他们出去, 那他们就麻烦大了。
They stumble , fall, get up, they get slapped or spanked , and they have a positive experience, a good grade in school, and they figure it out on their own. 孩子会摸爬滚打,跌倒再站起来, 他们失败、受挫, 他们获得正面的经验, 在学校里取得好成绩, 然后他们自己摸索出人生。
