【《中大創新》系列—蒙美玲教授 懂聽能說的人工智能】
電腦是只有0和1的世界，卻懂得聽和說複雜的人類語言，這全靠一眾工程師引入語音識別技術，令人類與機器之間的溝通不再困難。
中大蒙美玲教授研究語音識別多年，她透過引入人工智慧及深度學習等技術，讓電腦學懂分析人類語言，知曉語音背後隱藏的資訊，包括語意、性別、情緒、語言程度，甚至是教育及健康水平等，並研發輔助工具改善人類的生活和學習。「人類的說話就如魔法，當中有很多資訊，除了語意，還有情感、健康程度，甚至教育水平，可以讓機器分析。當下，我要做的就是解究這些資訊，讓人工智慧真正造福人類。」蒙教授分享道。

本文為2020年6月23日「可持續發展目標論壇系列」第四講「人工智能時代下的可持續發展」的講座摘要紀錄。可持續發展目標（SDGs）目標3是「確保健康及促進各年齡層的福祉」， 而目標13則是「採取緊急措施以因應氣候變遷及其影響」。前者是個人與社會範疇的目標，後者是環境範疇的目標。環境與健康固然關係密切，時至今日，兩者都可以運用人工智能（Artificial Intelligence, AI）技術，協助解決一些過去難以解決的問題。
