16.The Future of Information Technology
16.信息技术的发展前景
But as we stand here today, the opening of CeBIT, we are on the threshold of a very important change in the evolution of this industry. In many ways, this industry, a very immature 1 industry, is about to play out in its most important dimension. That is because the technology has become so powerful and so pervasive 2 that its future impact on people and governments and all institutions will dwarf 3 what has happened today.
然而当我们今天站在这里，出席CeBIT开幕式的时候，信息技术革命正在发生重要变革。虽然目前信息技术产业发展时间不长，但在很多方面，它将发挥至关重要的作用。这是因为信息技术已经变得如此强大、如此普遍，以致未来它对人、政府和各个机构的影响将使目前的状况相形见绌。
I believe there are two trends that are most significant here, and bear the closest watching. The first is what we call deep computing 4. The term is inspired by our chess-playing super computer Deep Blue, which I believe many of you know competed with the Grand Master Gary Kasparov last year. The second major development in Information Technology is of course for a topical, already discussed here this evening, and that is the rise of global networks, like the Internet to create a network world, or what some call a network economy.
我认为，现在我们最需要关注的是信息技术产业发展的两个最重要的趋势。第一个我们称之为“深入计算”，这个术语是我们在超级计算机“深蓝”的启发下得到的。“深蓝”会下国际象棋，相信很多人都知道，它去年曾和国际象棋大师加里·卡帕斯洛夫较量过。第二个信息技术的重要发展，就像我们已经讨论过的，是全冻网络的崛起，比如Internet，它创造了一个网络世界，也有些人称之为网络经济。
Personally I believe that future leadership companies and by the way future leadership institutions of all kinds will be those who know how to compete and win on the basis of knowledge——learning, adapting and improving the vital asset we know as information.
我个人认为，未来社会的领先企业和领先机构必将懂得以知识为基础——学习、适应和改进信息这一重要资产，在竞争中取得胜利。
