0477 Chip, Chip!
In the nervous anticipation of human beings on the earth, one day in early September, a message was posted on the Huaguo section without warning.
It is this news that lets the world know what the big move issued by the Star Group is and what field it involves.
Just last month, after countries around the world have completed the 99-level database tutorial, the world has basically aspied the consensus that on the basis of learning the 99-level database tutorial, the truly self-aware artificial intelligence is about to emerge. It's just that there is still a lack of the most critical overall algorithm that can coordinate the overall situation.
People speculate that Star Group may well have this overall algorithm. And with the support of this overall algorithm, Star Group should have developed real artificial intelligence long ago. Otherwise, a year ago, Star Group would not have been able to fight the world on its own online.
Although the Star Group does not disclose this unique algorithm, over time, on the basis of the 99-level database tutorial, the data technology sister can also study it, but after all, it will not be more convenient than the Star Group personally disclosed. And the Star Group's disclosure may also be more advanced and perfect.
The news on the Huaguo section this time, as the world expected, the Star Group really admitted that after the 99-level database tutorial, it is really a real artificial intelligence. It's just that because this kind of self-aware artificial intelligence can only achieve the intelligence level of an eight- or nine-year-old human child at most, the Star Group calls it 'quasi-artificial intelligence'.
Whether it's true AI or quasi-AI, people can leave it alone. What people really care about is the most critical overall algorithm for compiling artificial intelligence disclosed in the news - the quaternary coding method!
After a brief interpretation of the quaternary coding method, the earth data science community immediately found that this quaternary coding method is inseparable from the 'X4' architecture launched by Star Group earlier.
Scientists quickly came to the conclusion that this quaternary coding method can only be programmed on a dedicated chip with the X4 architecture as the core to achieve its best operation.
This has made Western countries feel extremely happy.
In the past, although the X4 architecture was launched by the Star Group, because it can simulate the state of the original chip, whether it is silicon-based or carbon-based chips, and it runs well, and the Star Group itself has not stated that it will involve chip manufacturing, so the earth science and technology community has not deliberately developed and designed new chips based on the X4 architecture.
At that time, people still thought that the chip aspect was the weak point of the Star Group. Now, as soon as the quaternary code was introduced, it quickly became clear that it had to work in the X4 architecture to work effectively. The X4 architecture simulated on mainstream chips is essentially just a state simulation. This simulated state does not have the effect of making the quaternary encoding method run smoothly.
Then, in order to make the quaternary coding method run smoothly, it is necessary to design and manufacture a chip based on the X4 architecture, instead of simulating on the existing chip and the old architecture as before.
Whether it is the chip manufacturing industry in China or outside China, they all think that this time they have finally grasped the weakness of the Star Group, which is not a weakness, and has a certain degree of bargaining capital with the Star Group.
Because the design and manufacturing of chips is the most high-end manufacturing industry in the world's civilized world, its industry ecological chain is very extensive, and it is also very high-end, and it is very costly. It is almost impossible to build a chip production line from start to finish. Even if the Star Group has an inexhaustible amount of money, it is not something that can be achieved in the short term.
However, people's dreams have not yet begun to be made, and when the thoughts just arise, they are slapped by Huaguo Starry Sky.
After the quaternary coding method was announced, there was no movement in the Huaguo section for half an hour. This half hour must be the time specially set aside by the starry sky of Huaguo for the world to think.
Half an hour later, the world has recognized the relationship between the quaternary coding method and the special chip, and when the discussion about the special chip began to appear on the Internet, another extremely important news appeared in the Huaguo section.
The reason why this news is extremely important is because the news that appeared this time really has the effect of earth-shattering.
This message is relatively long, and the content of the message is relatively profound. But no matter how profound the content is, it does not prevent people from quickly understanding its main meaning.
According to the new news, in order to make the quaternary coding method run smoothly, Star Group has specially designed a new chip based on the X4 architecture.
This passage undoubtedly made the speculation that those who thought that chip design was the weakness of Star Group instantly became a joke. Because the news not only said so, but also generously announced the chip design drawing.
Although there are very few people who can understand the chip design drawing, even those who can understand it can only understand a very small part for the time being. But no one dares to question this chip design. Although it is still only a design drawing, it has not been demonstrated, it has not been taped-out, it has not been actually manufactured, etc. Although I have seen the chip design drawings taken out by the Star Group, some foreign predators who are good at chip manufacturing still have not completely given up. Because no matter how advanced and reasonable your chip design is, it always needs to be put on the machine for actual manufacturing, and it can't be produced out of thin air, right?
These predators all believe that the Star Group must be asking for them now. Because not to mention the technical difficulty of building a chip production line, it takes a long time to build alone. Even if Star Group has the technology to build a production line, what about time?
Of course, there is one thing that Western predators can also think of, that is, most of Huaguo will not be embarrassed by the Star Group in chip manufacturing, and China also has a complete chip manufacturing production line.
However, can China's chip manufacturing production line be compared with the chip manufacturing production line of the Western world? China's chip manufacturing production line only solves the problem of whether there is a problem, and the gap between China and the Western world in terms of sophistication is still relatively large.
In the past few years, Huaguo was forced to improve its chip manufacturing industry chain when it was threatened by the chip supply of Mi, but Huaguo's most mature chip manufacturing has just reached the level of 5 nanometers. There is still a huge distance from the limit of chip manufacturing of 2 nanometers and 3 nanometers.
In this regard, science is science. No matter how hard the Chinese scientific community tries, it must face up to the gap between their scientific and technological knowledge and that of the Western scientific community, which has existed for hundreds of years.
Therefore, the Western predators are very sure that with the best way of doing everything in the Star Group, if they want to quickly get the perfect chip that meets their wishes, they must come to them for cooperation.
This makes the predators and the scientific and technological community in the Western world feel that they can finally straighten their waists and say a word or two loudly in front of the Star Group.
It is very ironic that Westerners, who have always been arrogant in front of China in the past, know that they cannot refuse the cooperation request put forward by the Star Group, but they also feel complacent that they have the opportunity to bargain with the Star Group.
It can be seen from this that the Star Group has brought heavy pressure to the scientific and technological community of the entire earth world, especially the western world of the earth.
But will the Star Group give the predators of the Western world a chance to speak out loud because of its pursuit of perfect chips?
As it turns out, these ideas are just wishful thinking on the part of Western predators.
The Star Group quickly shattered their thoughts, leaving them with not even the slightest chance to comfort themselves.
