【摘要】 超材料作为一类具有自然材料所不具备的超常性质的人工材料，为实现物质的重构以获得人工物质提供一种技术路径。这样一些功能高度、可设计的人工物质为各种类型人工智能的实现提供了理想的物理载体，也为人工生命实体的实现提供了新的可能。在探讨物质、智能及生命系统的关联与重构的基础上，评述了超材料在各种人工智能系统中的应用，特别是在高性能光计算和具身智能领域的研究进展，并对利用超材料策略构建人工生命，特别是自复制机器实体的可能性进行分析。更多还原

【Abstract】 As a class of artificial materials possessing extraordinary properties that not found in natural matters, metamaterials offer a technological pathway for reconstruction of matters to get "artificial matters". These highly functional and designable artificial matters provide more ideal physical carriers for the implementation of various types of artificial intelligence and open up new possibilities for the realization of corporeal artificial lives. Based on exploring the relationship of matter, intelligence, and life systems, this commentary reviews the applications of metamaterials in various artificial intelligence systems, especially the research progress in high-performance optical computing and embodied intelligence, and analyzes the feasibility of constructing artificial lives with metamaterial strategies.更多还原
