问题    When I started my career I was astonished by how superhuman some Fortune 500 executives were. It seemed they were magicians. Every decision they made based on deep market knowledge and up-to-date information. How did they do it?
   They have marketing teams that can pull research together in hours. They have chiefs of staff who give them carefully crafted agendas for every day. These teams give Fortune 500 executives what appears to be super-human knowledge.
   Fortunately for those of us who don’t have Fortune 500 budgets at our disposal, it’s getting easier and easier to build your own secret support staff. Within five years, most executives at any size company—and, indeed, most knowledge workers—will have tools that do much of the work of a CEO’s private group.
   That is, "Cyborg systems," or what I called "agents". It will make this possible, using a blend of learning algorithms and distributed labor to perform an ever-widening range of tasks at low cost. With help from these agents, we’ll be able to look as smart as those CEOs do today.
   I got one taste of this when I started using Wonder. Wonder is like having a personal researcher, deploying a small army of experts, including trained librarians, to do small, defined research projects for me. I ask Wonder for help. For $30 to $60, Wonder saves me hours every week. More and more products and services will fuse machine intelligence with crowd work to help users get things done.
   To be clear, CEO support teams aren’t going away. Top executives will continue to see benefits from dedicated, trusted support staff who can handle difficult, urgent, delicate work. But machine intelligence systems can take on elements of what these people do at a much lower cost, democratizing many of these capabilities.
   Granted, there is going to be a lot of garbage before we realize the full promise of these virtual support armies. Many of them fail to live up to even basic promises, like this weather bot that has trouble telling you about the weather. But if you can filter through the many new offerings to find valuable tools, your work will improve and you may even start to look like those CEOs with the seemingly.
The text mainly discusses______.

选项 A、the importance of team work
B、the trustworthy support team
C、the application of machine intelligence
D、working like CEOs

答案C

解析 主旨大意题。文章第一、二段讨论的是世界500强企业CEO们办事能力高的原因——他们有强大的支持团队。第三、四、五段讨论的是机器智能的运用及前景。第六段论述了CEO们支持团队不会因为机器智能的出现而消失。第七段指出机器智能尚存在的缺陷。因此全文实际上主要谈论的是机器智能的应用,故C项为正确选项。
