The Future of Learning English

Hello everyone, and welcome to this English lesson, which isn't really an English lesson. It's more just Bob's thoughts on what the future of learning English will look like. I think there's a couple of things that are going to change what it's like to learn a language in the future, and I just want to talk about each of them for a bit, so hopefully you find this video interesting.

		   
大家好，欢迎来到这堂英语课程，实际上它并不是一堂真正的英语课程。更多地说，这只是鲍勃对学习英语未来将会是什么样子的一些想法。我认为有一些事情将会改变未来学习语言的方式，我想简要地谈论每一件事，希望你会觉得这个视频很有趣。
		
	

The first thing I want to talk about is AI. You might think, "Bob, you're late to the party. AI was a big thing a year ago. We've been using AI already to learn English," and I think you're probably right. I'm a little late to the party, but I don't think AI is where it's at yet in terms of a tool. I think it's very useful. I think it's awesome. But I think what the future holds is something even cooler. Eventually, I think you will have a personalized English language AI tutor. I think it's probably about six months to a year away. Someone will invent it, or maybe it exists already and you can tell me in the comments below. But I think eventually you will have a tutor that you talk to every day, that you write to every day and writes back to you that you can have conversations with. Like you can actually talk and hear the AI tutor and it will study and correct your English speaking. I think the AI tutor will simulate different conversations with you. It will simulate being at a restaurant, it will simulate buying gas at a gas station. It will do all kinds of really cool things like that to help you practice your English conversation. And hopefully it's really, really cheap. I hope it doesn't cost a lot of money. So I think that's where AI is really going to shine. Once we have an AI that is tailored to you, an AI that knows what you know and what you don't know, and then is able to help you get better at speaking English. And so I think that'll be really cool. It'll be cool when an AI tells you, "Hey, you made that mistake yesterday, let's practice it a bit more in a really friendly tone in a way that doesn't make you feel bad for making that mistake." So I think that's somewhere in the future. I think right now AI is really cool for generating stories, helping you learn vocabulary, having little written conversations. But I think the future is going to be cooler when it actually remembers who you are and helps you every step along the way, making the conversation just a little more challenging. Can you imagine an AI that helps you learn three or four new words every time you talk to it and intentionally uses them in the conversation and teaches you the meaning? That would be very cool.

		   
我想要谈论的第一件事是人工智能。你可能会想，“鲍勃，你来晚了。AI一年前就很火了。我们已经在使用AI来学习英语了”，我认为你可能是对的。我来晚了一点，但我认为AI在工具方面还没有达到顶峰。我认为它非常有用，我觉得它很棒。但我认为未来会有更酷的东西。最终，我认为你会有一个个性化的英语语言AI家教。我认为可能还需要大约六个月到一年的时间。有人会发明它，或者也许它已经存在了，你可以在下面的评论中告诉我。但我认为最终你会有一个你每天都可以交谈的家教，你每天写信给它，它也会回信给你，你可以和它交谈。就像你实际上可以和AI家教交谈并听到它说话，它会研究和纠正你的英语口语。我认为AI家教会模拟与你进行不同的对话。它会模拟在餐厅，加油站购买汽油等场景。它会做很多类似这样的很酷的事情来帮助你练习英语会话。希望它真的非常便宜。我希望它不会花费很多钱。所以我认为这就是AI真正发光的地方。一旦我们有了一个专门为你量身定制的AI，一个知道你知道什么和不知道什么的AI，然后能够帮助你提高英语口语水平。所以我认为那将会非常酷。当一个AI告诉你，“嘿，你昨天犯了那个错误，我们来练习一下，用一种友好的口吻，让你不会因为犯错而感到难过。”所以我认为这是将来的事情。我认为现在AI生成故事，帮助你学习词汇，进行小写对话等方面确实很酷。但我认为未来将会更酷，当它真正记得你是谁，并在每一步帮助你，使对话变得稍微更具挑战性时。你能想象一个AI每次与你交谈时都帮助你学习三四个新单词，并有意地在对话中使用它们并教你它们的意思吗？那将会非常酷。
		
	

The second way I think the future of English learning is going to change is with VR, virtual reality, or augmented reality, or mixed reality. There are a lot of names for it. But when I see the videos with the Apple Vision Pro headset, and when I see what can be done with it, I think we're looking into a future soon where you'll be able to see things around you that aren't in reality, and then the headset can help you learn those things. I can imagine, along with an AI simulating actually going into a restaurant and ordering your food and having your food brought to you, all virtually of course. And then maybe they bring you the wrong food, and then you can ask the server for the right food. So I think virtual reality, I think headsets. I think it's in its infancy. When something's in its infancy, it means it's not there yet. But I think we're a year or two away. Certainly the cost is prohibitive. I would love to have an Apple Vision Pro headset, but I think they're $3,500 or somewhere in that range. I don't have that kind of money. By the way, I hope you're learning a couple of little interesting phrases from me today, like, "it's not quite there yet." "I don't have that kind of money." Those are little phrases we use to describe things that are expensive or things that aren't developed fully yet.

		   
我认为英语学习的未来将会通过虚拟现实（VR）、增强现实（AR）、或混合现实（MR）来改变的第二种方式。有很多名称来描述它。但是当我看到配备了苹果视觉专业头戴设备的视频，以及它所能实现的功能时，我觉得我们正在迎来一个未来，你将能够看到周围的事物，而这些事物并不在现实中，然后头戴设备可以帮助你学习这些事物。我可以想象，配合人工智能模拟真正进入餐厅并点餐，然后把食物送到你面前，当然都是虚拟的。然后可能他们会给你送错食物，然后你可以向服务员要求正确的食物。所以我认为虚拟现实，我认为头戴设备。我认为它还处于初期阶段。当某样东西处于初期阶段时，意味着它还没有完全成熟。但我认为我们还有一两年的时间。当然，成本是不可承受的。我很想拥有一个苹果视觉专业头戴设备，但我认为它们要价3500美元或者在那个价格范围内。我没有那种钱。顺便说一下，希望你今天从我这里学到了一些有趣的小短语，比如，“还没有完全成熟。”“我没有那种钱。”这些是我们用来描述昂贵的事物或尚未完全发展的事物的小短语。
		
	

So anyways, the future, I think AI will get better and better. I think it will eventually... it will know what you don't know. Do you know what I mean? Like, it will know what you don't know and then help you learn a little bit every day so you get better and better at it. And I just think a conversation with an AI is way less stressful than a conversation with a human. And then augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, we'll come up with the official term eventually. But yeah, I think once it's not cost prohibitive, once it's cheaper. Maybe someday you'll be sitting with your VR headset on and instead of watching one of my live streams, we'll be in the same virtual room together and you can interact with me. We'll see. Who knows what the future holds. Anyways, just some thoughts from me about the future of English learning. I would love to hear your thoughts below. Especially, I would like to hear what you're already doing. So in the comments below, let me know how you're using AI or Chat GPT. Let me know if you got a Vision Pro headset and how well it works. I'd be really, really curious. But anyways, thanks for just listening to my thoughts. Remember, this video does have a full transcript. You can turn the subtitles on, and I put a link to the full transcript in the first comment below, and a link in the description of this video as well, so you can read along if I'm talking a little too fast for you to understand. Anyways, thanks for watching. Bye.

		   
总之，未来，我认为人工智能会变得越来越好。我认为它最终会……它会知道你不知道的东西。你知道我的意思吗？就像，它会知道你不知道的东西，然后帮助你每天学习一点，这样你会变得越来越好。我只是觉得与人工智能对话比与人类对话要少压力得多。而增强现实、虚拟现实、混合现实，我们最终会找到官方术语。但是，我认为一旦成本不再成为阻碍，一旦价格更便宜。也许有一天，你会戴着VR头盔坐在那里，而不是看我的直播，我们会在同一个虚拟房间里，你可以与我互动。我们将看到的。谁知道未来会带来什么。无论如何，这只是我对英语学习未来的一些想法。我很想听听你的想法。特别是，我想知道你已经在做什么。所以在下面的评论中，让我知道你如何使用人工智能或聊天GPT。让我知道你是否有Vision Pro头戴设备以及它的效果如何。我会非常，非常好奇的。无论如何，感谢你听我说这些想法。请记住，这个视频有完整的剧本。你可以打开字幕，我在下面的第一条评论和视频描述中都放了剧本链接，这样你就可以跟上我的说话速度，如果我说得太快你听不懂的话。无论如何，谢谢观看。再见。
