我十分唔擅長、亦都唔鍾意寫文章。雖然閒時會睇睇小說，但由小學開 始，作文就已經係我最唔鍾意嘅功課。我今個Sem甚至為 咗 唔 使 寫 E s say，而特登報咗個可以交Video Essay嘅CC。但係嚟到第四本太青常 刊，始終都係避唔開要寫〈編者的話〉嘅命運，唉....... 科技始於人性。人類為咗烹調保暖而開始使用火，開始發展文明；為咗增 加勞動力而發明蒸汽機，發起工業革命；為咗更強嘅運算而開發出電腦同 互聯網，進入IT年代。喺我尋思咗幾日都諗唔到應該寫咩題材嘅時候，不 禁開始幻想：人類可唔可以製造出高科技嘅人工智能，去自動傾寫出文 章？ 實際上係有嘅。九十後嘅我好明顯唔會係第一個有喱種諗法嘅人，早喺一 九四九年出版嘅小說《一九八四》，作者已經有用電腦寫書嘅想像。而喺 現實之中，諸如《華盛頓郵報》、《美聯社》等國際報章，均有使用新聞 寫作機械人去追蹤訊息，甚至使用模板自動生成新聞稿；喺文學創作嘅領 域，日本公立函館未來大學喺二零一六年已經開發出有關小說嘅AI，透過 分析已故作家嘅作品，模仿並學習其文章風格，創作出成功入圍文學獎嘅 佳作。想試玩自動寫作嘅話，你可以喺一個叫AI Writer嘅網站輸入關鍵 字，然後等網站嘅AI幫你自動生成出文章。 雖然目前由自動寫作生成嘅文章仍然不及記者或者作家嘅手筆來得自然， 喱一項技術仍然有唔少進步空間，但隨著人工智能嘅普及化以及開發成本 下降，AI寫嘅文章違和感相信會越嚟越低，讀者會越嚟越難分辨出，文章 到底係出自文人嘅手筆，抑或係電腦嘅產物。筆璣嘅主編講過佢將來畢業 後想做文字工作，作為一名讀CS嘅準IT狗，只能講一聲祝君好運。

太古夫人： 全知全能的您會否知道十口國的歷 史？例如以往有否和大食國有什麼淵 源？因為我見我國國民，似是嚴格地 信奉著部分伊斯蘭教的教條——比如 說異性之間不得相互接觸。在不少私 底下的聚會，也是男一群、女一群 地活動，彷似稍微走得近了，便 會有傷風化。偶爾有男女被發 現單獨相處，就成為一則茶餘 飯後的談資。為什麼這種風氣 會出現？應否保持？不應的 話又能如何改善？ 敬祝 安康 國民 惑人上

惑人青覽： 蓋依吾聞，十口少交大食， 有諸，民之所習也。百姓 者，或從無異性之塾而師， 少無竹馬之交；或生而性納， 沈厚寡言，故非善與友。夫欲 勢強於諸邦，必以上下同欲聞。 能合眾力，乃長存之道也。是以 分裂之象，宜深慎之。求民之廣友 者，見人之相與，勿群聚而笑之；思 國之得厚者，君政誠能添宴，有使民情益 篤摯。眾志成城，則社稷安矣。 祝 台安 太古夫人字

Swire Hall Students’ Association, HKUSU, Session 2018 – 2019

38 years in retrospect:

Traditions As Swire Festival 2018 draws to a close, signifying both an end and a beginning of our 38th anniversary, there is no time more fitting than now to look back to see how far we’ve come: The traditions passed on.

Things have undoubtedly changed, and quite a bit at that. Alumni would come as honoured guests to our High Table Dinners and reminisce about their High Tables, about the time when they sat where we are sitting now. They would tell us about how things were so different back in their days.

Whether the changes were good or bad is entirely up

6

to debate. But there are changes.

Chief amongst them is, of course, the Seniority System. Devised as a method to counteract the high turnover rate of the residents, it is an infamous, perhaps the most infamous part of hall life in the University of Hong Kong. A method to help pass on the values which the residents most treasure, it has been passed on from generation to generation, 38 years now.

The core concept is that roles are assigned to help everyone contribute to the passing on process. Learners, leaders, advisors…… A l l

parts of the big picture to ensure that the core values are kept and preserved.

Obviously, this system e xt e n d s t o w ar d s o ther aspects unofficially as well, ranging from newball teams to academics.

The necessity of the system lies not in it’s more obvious uses, but in it’s more subtle influences. A purpose within a society is often what provides the average person drives and commitments. Dedication comes not solely with duties and responsibilities, but with purposes and passions.

Without such a system in place, many would be unable to not only contribute, but dedicate themselves towards the community as a whole.

One thing that needs to be kept in mind is that despite being higher in the Sin hierarchy, we are still human. Mistakes always happen, sometimes as

a matter of fact. What we tend to forget is that the system is not a method to punish those who make them, but to help them overcome them.

As defined by the name ‘Advisor’, advises should be provided, instead of mere harsh and pointless words.

Leaders should lead, and through examples. Ideally, this is what should be happened, but we all need to remember one simple fact: We are all humans, and humans are not without faults.

Maybe it is time for everyone to take a step back and reflect. Mistakes will always be made, but we should not allow them to define us, define the system. Seniority System, is about overcoming them. It is about preserving our core values; it is about passing them on.

Hallyu:

in K-pop e r u lt u C Korean

There are multiple reasons where Korean culture has become a major trend worldwide. First, I would like to particularly talk about K-drama. One of the most famous Korean dramas is “My Love From the Star”. The first episode was telecasted on 18th December 2013, and it was televised until 27th February 2014. This drama caused syndrome in Asia

where people were immersed into every minor things that were broadcasted in it, such as having ‘Chi Mac’, the combination of fried chicken and beer. In addition, casting of Kim Soo Hyun and Jun Ji Hyun as hero and heroine of the drama respectively also played a great role in causing the syndrome. I believe

that bringing in the audience into the scene and immediately allowing them to experience something that could not happen in reality were the main reasons why people were so enthusiastic about it.

With rising K-pop all over the world, there is a girl group called

‘Blackpink’ who is receiving a lot of attention. Blackpink is a South Korean girl group sponsored by YG Entertainment, a company that has made a lot of famous artists like Big Bang, 2NE1 and Winner.

Blackpink consists of 4 members: Jisoo, Jennie, Rose and Lisa. They are 4 unique girls who can all perform excellent dancing

17

and singing. They made their debut in 2016 and very soon developed as a recognized idol group.

There are many reasons why fans from all over the world like them but the biggest reasons are their individual attractive visual and different music genre compared to other Korean girl groups. Their songs

are composed with strong beat and addictive chorus.

As a Korean girl group, they have achieved great results such as making an impact in Billboard chart and their Youtube views also show how great their influence is.

Another globally popular K-pop band is a boy band named BTS formed by Big Hit Entertainment, also known as the Bangtan Boys.

This group has seven Korean members: V, J-Hope, RM, Jin, Jimin, Jungkook, and Suga.

18

Their first debut was during 2013, with their title song named “No More Dream� incorporated with hip-hop genre. They later branched out and attempted a diverse range of genres, including R&B, rock music, and neo soul. Their capability to skillfully assimilate various genres is the main reason they are loved by millions of fans worldwide. BTS is also particularly well known for their artistic performances.

Since 2017, their recognition grew internationally with

their albums entering the US Billboard chart, while breaking the record for most viewed K-pop group music video within the first 24 hours on Youtube.

Recently, one member of BTS, RM, who is the most fluent in English, even delivered a speech as ambassador for UNICEF at the United Nations.
