## Details Our hike leader is Gadi Prager From the website... * [TommyThompson](https://www.hphc.ca/TommyThompson01.html) \-\- description of hike with driving instructions * [Schedule Spring 2025](https://www.hphc.ca/schedule.html) * [What to Bring](https://www.hphc.ca/WhatToBring.html) \-\- on a hike * [Hiking Etiquette](https://www.hphc.ca/HikeEtiquette.html) * [Taking Photos](https://www.hphc.ca/Photos.html) * [Après Hike](https://www.hphc.ca/ApresHike.html) Hello Hikers (and those currently questioning our identity), This coming Sunday, May 10th, we are trading our vertical inclines for horizontal velocity. We’re "walking" more than "hiking." What’s up with that, you ask? Think of it as a strategic recovery mission at a brisk pace. We’re tackling the Leslie St. Spit, formally known as Tommy Thompson Park. Fun fact: Tommy is world-renowned for the phrase “Please Walk on the Grass,” so feel free to rebel by staying on the path—or don’t. He’d want you to live your best life. **The Mission** This is a classic 11 km out-and-back journey to the lighthouse. It’s paved, level, and straighter than a ruler, with unpaved "finger trails" for those who have an itch for the scenic route. Navigation Warning: It is virtually impossible to get lost unless you decide to swim to St. Catharines or the Island Airport. If you plan on stowing away in the cargo hold of a jet to the Caribbean, please let me know by the 5 km mark so we don’t count you as "missing." **The Scenery** Far from a boring stroll, the views are spectacular—pure "Kodak moment" territory for the shutterbugs among us. As a nature reserve, the park is teeming with locals, including Marty the Mink. You’ll have Lake Ontario on one side and the iconic Toronto skyline on the other. It’s basically a 360-degree flex. **The Details** Runners: You are more than welcome to "Run, Forrest, Run" ahead of us. Trail runners are a solid choice if you want to explore the grit. Meeting Time: 10:00 AM sharp at the park entrance. Cost: $0.00. Free parking, free entrance, priceless memories. Transport: Carpooling is available for those who prefer to be chauffeured in style. "Champagne wishes and caviar dreams" (though you’ll have to provide your own Grey Poupon). Supplies: Bring water and lunch. Marty the Mink does not share his snacks. **Location**: 1-3 Leslie St. Toronto, ON M4M 3M9 The views for this walk are truly unbe-leaf-able. (Sorry, I had to). Looking forward to seeing everyone out there! Gadi Prager

#93: AI 双面圆桌派 01 ~ AI 时代如何读书
#93: AI 双面圆桌派 01 ~ AI 时代如何读书
你有没有试过,让 AI 替你读一本书? 十秒钟,梗概有了。 一分钟,重点也有了。 再问几句,它还会解释、比较、反驳。 很方便。也有一点可疑。 一本书,只看 AI 总结,算读过吗? 工具书也许可以。 小说呢?传记呢? 那些在某一页突然停住的时刻呢? AI 能说出《悉达多》讲了什么。 哪一句会在你心里留下来,只有你知道。 **第一期「AI双面圆桌派」,我们聊:** **当 AI 可以总结、解释、陪读、反驳一本书时,人还为什么读书?** 我们该读得更多,还是读得更慢? 我们和三位嘉宾一起,聊几个问题: * AI 眼里的重点,是我的重点吗? * 读得快,会不会只是更快地产生“我懂了”的错觉? * 哪些书可以交给 AI 先读? * 哪些书,还是要自己慢慢读? * 故事、共鸣、经验,算不算知识? 两个小环节: * AI 帮我省下一小时。 * 我用 AI 搞砸的一件事。 带着问题来就好。 不用先有答案。 ***嘉宾介绍*** Anna,深耕北美市场营销与中国科技,互联网产品出海,腾讯,IDG投资的企业级AI软件小鹅通elink加拿大负责人,专注企业增长与数字化转型。 * 主导多个品牌北美市场进入与增长项目,实现从0到规模化增长 * 推动小鹅通eLink在加拿大落地,赋能企业私域与数字化转型 * 深度连接中美加商业资源,搭建跨境合作与行业生态网络 Swan, 加拿大注册会计师(CPA),7年审计经验,横跨财务审计与运营审计。曾先后任职于加拿大知名会计师事务所、五大银行,及政府审计部门。拥有横跨三类组织的审计实务经历,擅长从财报中梳理逻辑、发现问题,并快速理解运营流程、防范风险。作为误闯创业群的一名风险“守门员”,习追问,习惯质疑,抽丝剥茧,追本溯源。也是夹缝中生存的打工人,探索如何用AI杠杆减轻负担、加速成长。 张英锋,QHOW Technology 创始人,科技教育与知识传播实践者,长期关注 AI 时代的学习方式与认知模型重构。曾获知乎“2014 年度新知答主”,在科学、数学、教育、历史等领域创作 160 多篇回答和文章,累计阅读超过 3700 万,拥有 26 万关注者。在本场圆桌中,他将从一个略带“反方”的角度讨论 AI 阅读:AI 总结带来的,究竟是真正的知识,还是一种“我已经懂了”的幻觉?他关注的问题是,当 AI 可以快速提炼一本书时,人如何避免停留在叙事共鸣中,而是真正把阅读转化为理解、输出与解决问题的能力。 ***About Startup4Chinese*** Started in August 2017, Startup4Chinese's mission is to INSPIRE, EMPOWER, and CONNECT entrepreneurial minds not only among Chinese but beyond. We want to inspire your passionate entrepreneurship spirit, empower your brilliant startup idea, and connect you with your future reliable partner. We value Openness. We provide Pragmatic topics.
