「多看書」可能是對鍛鍊語言基礎的學生最好的建議。其實,這個建議對人工智慧來說同樣奏效。 在2月18日,Facebook釋出了多個用來訓練他們的神經網路的資料集。其中一個資料集全是例如《叢林之書》,《彼得·潘》,《小婦人》,《聖誕頌歌》,《愛麗絲夢遊仙境》等經典小說。總共有100多個故事,都來自免費網上圖書館Project Gutenberg。
這是專門為初出茅廬的AI定製的閱讀列表。Facebook把這種用閱讀培訓AI的方法叫做「兒童圖書測試(Children’s Book Test)」,同時也用它測試電腦的閱讀能力。 Facebook的研究人員利用閱讀列表上的一些故事範本訓練出神經網路。然後,他們在尚未讀過的故事中找到一些短摘錄,但最後一句話缺失一些單詞,他們讓神經網路從幾個選項中選出正確的單詞,將最後一句話填補完整。 例如,以下的例子是從桑頓·伯吉斯(Thornton Burgess)的《蟾蜍先生歷險記》摘選的一段話。

研究人員認為,AI能夠回答這些問題證明了它們可以透過借鑑更廣泛的語境來做決定,這是表徵和記憶複雜資訊的關鍵技能。類似的思維方式驅動了Facebook設計的另一個智力測驗:讓AI回答短篇故事人物之間的關係。
然而,Facebook的AI並不僅從書本中學習知識。當它不讀書的時候,它還努力鑽研電影中的機智問答(Movie Trivia)。Facebook不僅公佈了他們的兒童圖書測試資料,還公佈了從線上常識素材庫Freebase上獲取的108 442個問題。這些問題包括:「另類嘻哈樂的知名藝術家有誰」和「哪個國家使用南島語系中Tomadino語」等等。
