Chapter 170: Brain chip implantation
Chen Xu originally planned to stay in Kyoto for two days, but he didn't know that the plan could not catch up with the change.
First, Yan University invited him to give a lecture, and then the next day he went to Austria with Professor Liu Chenglin to participate in a three-day academic seminar.
Before he left Austria, a group of friends from Germany invited him to participate in brainstorming.
There were only 10 people in attendance, all of whom were super top students in computer-related fields, and the oldest was only 28 years old.
The youngest is a young Greek boy, Simon, who is only 15 years old this year.
These ten people are all real geniuses, one is more powerful than the other, just like Simon, although he is only 15 years old, he is already a doctoral student in the Department of Information Engineering at the University of Oxford, and has published a number of academic papers with international influence, which is very powerful.
Everyone had an in-depth discussion on issues such as machine learning, cybersecurity, visual computing, natural language processing, and human-computer natural interaction.
Most of the time, Chen Xu plays the role of a listener.
These geniuses, whether it is the amount of knowledge or logical thinking, are far from being comparable to Chen Xu, Chen Xu really feels what is the gap in IQ?
But there is no way, people's IQ is innate, and if you want to improve it, the only way is to implant a chip in the cerebral cortex as Xiaobai said, and become a super intelligent brain like Xiaobai.
Then, in addition to discussing AI, Chen Xu raised the question of implanting smart chips in the brain.
The crowd was very interested and had a lively discussion.
Brain implants are nothing new.
Someone started experimenting back in 1998.
In 2014, at the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Brazil, a paraplegic man successfully kicked off the ball with his mind to control the robot exoskeleton mechanical armor.
Although that kick may seem unremarkable, it sends a very remarkable signal, that is, humans can use the chip implanted in the brain to complete the control of the machine with their minds!
The principle of mind control is not difficult to explain: through the extraction, analysis and interpretation of EEG information, after a certain amount of processing, it is transformed into a signal that controls the movement of the machine, and then drives the external mechanical movement.
The difficulty lies in the use of "brain-computer interface" technology to "catch" and "turn" EEG signals.
"Brain" refers to the brain or nervous system of a living being, and "machine" refers to a device for processing or computing information.
Put simply, it is to establish a direct communication and control channel between the human brain and a computer or other electronic device.
With this channel, people can express ideas or manipulate devices directly through their brains.
In July of this year, Carnegie Mellon University made a breakthrough in the field of brain-computer interfaces: researchers used non-invasive neuroimaging and machine learning to convert brainwave signals and related command signals.
It is possible to control the robotic arm without implanting a brain chip, and to be able to track a randomly moving computer cursor!
Under the guidance of Chen Xu, everyone quickly talked about the topic of connecting the human brain and computers to obtain massive knowledge.
Soon from the computer connection, we talked about the possibility of chip implantation, so that human beings can have a large reserve of memories?
……
Time flies like a white cloud.
By the time Chen Xu returned to China, it was already September 6th.
The plane landed at Koto International Airport.
The personal assistant Su Yiren, the newly matched secretary Li Ziang, and the driver and bodyguard Wang Jiaxing went to the airport to pick up the plane.
On the way, Li Ziang briefly reported to him the recent development of Xinghai Technology.
In addition, the Global Hackathon also came to an end on the 3rd. ”
"Oh, yes. How's it going?"
"The technology of foreign security vendors basically crushes domestic manufacturers, and the gap is very large, and there is basically no way to fight back. Secretary Li Ziang told Chen Xu what happened at the competition in detail.
"There are several security companies that have withdrawn from the competition. ”
Chen Xu nodded.
He had expected it.
Domestic security vendors, all day long thinking about how to put the money in the user's pocket into their own pocket, how can they have the effort to sink down and do a good job of technology?
This time, I invited foreign security vendors to perform at my doorstep, just to give an educational lesson to those domestic security vendors, so that they can take a good look at the gap between themselves and the top international security vendors.
As for Star Sword's showmanship, it's just incidental.
There is also a sword and shield, although there is no dazzling performance, but no one dares to despise it, and this hacking contest can be regarded as establishing a leadership in the industry.
Of course, Tengxun, Baidu, and 36 Zero, must be unconvinced.
There is still a lot of fighting in the future!
Chen Xu thought of some thoughts after Yan Da's speech last month, and he called Meng Xianghe.
I talked to him about the development strategy of Sword and Shield in the future.
Play the safety card!
There is no way to use the software overlord clause, and it will definitely sacrifice some privacy if you want to use it, but within the protection of the sword and shield firewall, you can't steal the personal information of my users without their consent, which is absolutely not allowed.
Of course, now many domestic enterprises are playing the legal sideball, which is a huge chain of interests, involving almost all enterprises in the world, and it is not something that can be easily shaken by the sword and shield.
So there needs to be a step-by-step process when doing this.
It can't be a one-size-fits-all approach.
Otherwise, the 3Q war of the year will definitely be repeated.
And it will be more intense.
There is a sword and shield without vine news, ah mile bar, whiteness, Jingdong, 36 zero, handwriting beating, swishing fox, slag waves......
You can start with some small Internet companies and cut off the tentacles embedded in users' mobile phones.
Then, like a scalpel, cut all the way up, and finally cut all those tumors away.
The conversation with Meng Xianghe lasted until the underground parking garage of the World Financial Center.
Then I took the high-speed elevator upstairs.
Chen Xu went to the company to check the company's recent development.
Xiaobai translation sales can only be described in two words: hot.
Technical agency authorization, order contracts, Qi Wenbin signed softly.
Every day is a daily income.
In addition, the company's diversified development path is also rapidly being rolled out.
The three portals have been launched at the beginning of the month, except for the "Xinghai Education Network" for the time being, there is no popularity, Xinghai Science and Technology News and the First News Network, have begun to spend a lot of money on publicity.
In addition, film and television publishing, stationery, education and medical care have begun to be planned, and a large number of talents are currently being recruited.
Speaking of medical care, Qi Wenbin asked: "Boss, I want to set up several large-scale comprehensive chain hospitals in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and then introduce the most advanced medical equipment from abroad, what do you think?"
"Of course it's good. After a pause, Chen Xu asked, "This investment is not low, right?"
Qi Wenbin: "Well, a hospital needs a minimum of 20~3 billion yuan. ”
After Chen Xu saw the company's detailed profitability during this period before, his heart was numb, and now he didn't have much reaction when he heard the investment amount of billions of yuan.
What's more, this is not a one-time investment, but a gradual one.
There's also the bank.
Xinghai's ability to make money is so strong, those big banks are now probably rushing to give Xinghai loans.
So he wasn't too worried about the construction money.
The main thing is talent.
Good doctors are not so easy to recruit.
The two chatted for more than an hour, and it wasn't until it got dark outside that Chen Xu got up to say goodbye.
……
Back at the home of Shang Yu Haoting, Chen Yanan had just served the soup on the table.
Chen Xu scooped a bowl with a spoon, and just took a sip of it when the phone rang in his pocket.
Take it out and take a look, it's Tong Lisha's.
Looking at the name on the phone, Chen Xu was a little dazed.
I went to Kyoto on the 23rd of last month, and today is exactly half a month.
In half a month, Tong Lisha sent him a lot of messages, but he seemed to have replied to one or two?
and Shen Yiqiu is the same. During that time abroad, Shen Yiqiu also called him twice and sent him text messages, but every time he hung up in a hurry, and the text messages were also remembered and replied.
He wondered why he couldn't remember them.
Are they not pretty?
Are they not sexy?
Or are they not interesting enough?
Neither.
He felt that the biggest reason was that they couldn't resonate with him spiritually......
