Chapter 313: Netscape, Yahoo and Google
Thinking about it, Li Zetian became more and more excited, and even couldn't wait.
If he does what he envisions, the speed of AI development will increase to an incredible level.
So, in the next month or so, Li Zetian was integrating resources, and the Evolver Robot Artificial Intelligence Laboratory allowed artificial intelligence to be written into the operating systems of Microsoft and Apple through authorization, and allowed the two companies to modify on the basis of artificial intelligence. However, both companies' AI databases must be shared with Evolutionary Robotics. Of course, if Microsoft and Apple were not Li Zetian's enterprises, Li Zetian's idea would definitely not be realized. The importance of databases is self-evident, Microsoft and Apple are both big enterprises and would rather develop their own artificial intelligence than share databases.
In Li Zetian's plan, the Evolutionary Robotics Company will authorize artificial intelligence to any enterprise in the form of authorization, however, if the artificial intelligence of the Evolutionary Robotics Company is used, then the company's data related to artificial intelligence must be shared with the Evolutionary Robotics Company, because the more data, the faster the artificial intelligence can evolve! In addition, it can also use the cloud data, operational computing, and computing that have only appeared in the 21st century. Many companies don't need servers, and Evolver Robotics can provide them with cloud services, so they can also master a large amount of data!
Writing AI into the operating system is not so simple, and it will definitely take a long time to develop, test, and improve. However, now that we have this direction of cooperation, I believe that we will be able to see a different operating system in the next few years.
Li Zetian will also pay attention to this matter often and fully assist in the development.

The spring grass is born in the year, and it is in February and March.
In March, the West Coast of the United States is sunny and the weather is exceptionally refreshing.
Li Zetian's family went to Hawaii for a vacation, surfing, diving, basking in the sun on the beach, and playing for a week.
When I returned to Los Angeles, my skin was a little tanned.
Today, more than 50,000 domain names have been registered around the world, and the development of the World Wide Web is beyond imagination.
To Li Zetian's surprise, a browser appeared on the market at this time, and it was not developed by him. The developers are four sophomores at Stanford University.
"Nima, this is definitely caused by the butterfly effect!" Li Zetian muttered.
The World Wide Web is so popular, someone can think of developing a browser, and it's a normal thing at this time.
"I can't wait any longer, if someone else takes the lead, it will be a big loss. โ
Li Zetian immediately called Dongfang Yuqin over.
"Yuqin, you go and quietly register a company called Netscape, and the product developed is a web browser! In the evening, I will write a proposal to you for the development problems related to web browsers. โ
"Okay, I'll arrange it right now. Dongfang Yuqin nodded, she was capable, resolute, and very efficient.
So, two weeks later, in an office building in Los Angeles, Netscape was quietly established, with a registered capital of up to $5 million, a very high start, and as many as 50 excellent engineers, and the CEO of the company was a Chinese Cheng Shouzong. When Dongfang Yuqin talked about this person, Li Zetian was slightly stunned, vaguely remembering that he seemed to be the CEO of BlackBerry.
"Being favored by BlackBerry shows that this person is still capable. Li Zetian said secretly.
Now too many people are paying attention to Li Zetian's investment trends, so he will not appear in Netscape again, so as not to attract people's attention and cause unnecessary competition. Wait for Netscape to develop, and then sell it to Microsoft.
At present, there is still a big thing to do, Li Zetian said to Dongfang Yuqin: "At present, there are more and more web pages, and many domain names are difficult to remember. People don't know what web page they want to visit when they are confronted with a tiny computer screen. Therefore, providing search services will be the development trend of the Internet!"
When Dongfang Yuqin heard this, she nodded, feeling that what Li Zetian said made sense. However, she clearly didn't recognize the value of search engines.
Li Zetian said slowly: "As far as I know, the teachers and students of the School of Computer Science of McGill University in Canada have developed a product called Archie, users can enter the exact file name to search, and Archie will tell users which FTP server can download the file. Although the information resources collected by Archie are not web pages (HTML files), they work in the same way as search engines, including automatic collection of information resources, indexing, and search services. โ
โMrยท Li, you mean to acquire Archie?" asked Dongfang Yuqin.
Li Zetian shook his head and said with a smile: "No need, search engine, I will write it myself! You still go to register a company this time, what is the name...... It's called Google. After my search engine development is completed, you can help me recruit a group of excellent employees to develop the second generation of search engine on the basis of the original. โ
"Okay. Dongfang Yuqin responded, seeing Li Zetian's thoughtful look at this time, she couldn't help asking, "Is there anything else you want to explain?"
At this time, Li Zetian was thinking in his heart: Google is mainly engaged in search services, is it not the establishment of Yahoo and the development of a web portal? In the early stage of the development of the Internet, the value of search engines could not be reflected, but the web portal was a hot mess.
If you set up Yahoo, when the company's stock price reaches its peak, you can cash it out and make a lot of money!
If you don't establish Yahoo, but let Google develop a web portal, Li Zetian can't bear to sell his shares, the search engine has huge development potential, as a person who travels through, how can he not know!!
"It's better to build Yahoo, fatten it up, and slaughter it. In other words, the portal is not very useful in the later stage, just look at how miserable Yahoo is. In the early stage of development, Google relied on Yahoo to provide search engines for it and grow itself. And before selling Yahoo, Google must have grown and fledgled to establish an unshakable supremacy in the search field!"
Li Zetian thought about it, and said to Dongfang Yuqin: "Well, in addition, I will establish a company called Yahoo to develop a web portal, and I will also write a plan, and you will let the recruited employees develop the website according to my plan." Also, it's important to note that Yahoo's search engine must be provided exclusively by Google!!"
Although it is only 1988, since the development speed of computers and the Internet is much faster than in previous lives, and the development time is not too fast, the launch of the portal is not too fast. Of course, it is often said in the industry that "the pioneers are basically martyrs", but what is Li Zetian afraid of, some money is used to burn!!
Moreover, Yahoo was valued at more than $125 billion at the time of its disruption.
Dongfang Yuqin saw that Li Zetian's tone was so solemn, and she understood that Li Zetian attached great importance to the search engine, and she said: "Don't worry, I will explain your words carefully!"
"Hmm. Li Zetian nodded.
After Dongfang Yuqin left, Li Zetian turned on the computer and began to write a search engine. At present, there is no need for an overly complicated search engine, he decided to develop a search based on manual classification catalog, to establish a directory navigation in a semi-automatic way, the user interface is a hierarchical structure, the home page provides several classification entrances, put the information under the catalog, step by step down the query, with which to find the information you need.
At the beginning of Yahoo's existence, such a search engine was sufficient. [.]
