028 Supercomputers that have not lagged behind for 20 years (ask for recommendation votes)
The underground space is huge, not a small basement.
As soon as Qian Duo arrived in the basement, the lights in the top space turned on in turn, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime.
Standing at the entrance, it is impossible to see at a glance how big this underground space is, with rows of neatly arranged cabinets and electronic devices placed in layers, all of which are connected by a large number of thin wires of various colors, without any messy feeling.
"The world's most advanced design of the Ninth Academy, a processor made of graphene circuits and various supporting electronic components, is powered by a small nuclear fusion reactor at room temperature. More than 20 years have passed, and there is no nuclear energy supplement, or I don't know how to replenish nuclear energy in it, so the energy in it is almost exhausted......"
Qian Yiduo did not stop at the entrance, but walked towards the front.
In the middle of the neatly arranged cabinets is a circular console with no display and nothing else.
"Such a primitive supercomputer?" Xiao Rui's avatar stood side by side with Qian Yiduo, sneering at the supercomputers that were made up of various cabinets around him. "The computing speed and storage space are not even as good as a bracelet like mine......"
"This is the technology of 20 years ago, if you just talk about the speed of computing, it is much worse than the fastest supercomputer, but the performance can also be regarded as a medium level, if necessary, as long as you can make more cabinets, that is, processors, it can completely surpass the world's fastest supercomputer...... "Qian Yiduo is like looking at his lover, his eyes are full of dementia.
Of course, it's more about loneliness.
Xiao Rui ignored Qian Yiduo and automatically turned on the detection function, she didn't have much hope that this supercomputer, which was already at the antique level, would be able to operate.
If you want to take the next step, you have to have a supercomputer, otherwise you can't explain where the technology came from.
"Why don't you turn it on? Although it consumes energy, isn't there a nuclear reactor in it? It can also support it for a while, right?" Xiao Rui was a little puzzled, why Qian Yiduo didn't charge himself when he had a nuclear reactor.
"Supercomputers consume energy, and everyone knows that, there are more than 600 cabinets with a total power of 2.2 megawatts, although this energy consumption is low compared to the current outside...... 2,200 kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour, plus the cooling system, completely calculated, it requires about 80,000 yuan of electricity per day, and no one can support it without the nuclear reactor here. Qian Yiduo introduced the situation lonely, "When I was very young, this supercomputer was built, and now, those who built this underground space have all died due to nuclear radiation, leaving me ......alone."
Qian Yiduo didn't care whether Xiao Rui understood it or not, Qian Yiduo introduced the origin of this supercomputer.
People who don't know the inside story only know that supercomputers are advanced, but they don't know that the biggest operating cost of supercomputers is energy consumption. Taking Guge as an example, just one company, their supercomputing center consumes more than 5TW of electricity every year, that is, 500,000 megawatts, and the annual electricity consumption is almost the same as that of San Francisco, USA!
The energy consumption of the supercomputer in front of me is already very low.
Xiao Rui didn't interrupt him, and patiently listened to Qian Yiduo's confession.
Perhaps, she can't understand the complex feelings of human beings, and remembering the past doesn't help her at all for the present.
"In other words, this supercomputer can't exert its full capabilities, because it is designed for artificial intelligence, and without artificial intelligence as a system, it can't control such a huge computing power?"
"Yes, there are only some ordinary small systems in this, I have never been to school because of my identity, and everything I learned was learned through her. The operation time is too long, and the necessary operation and maintenance and processing methods are lacking, and this supercomputer already has 382 cabinets that have problems due to aging...... "Qian Yiduo sighed.
"Rest assured, these can be repaired with nanobots. Xiao Rui comforted Qian Yiduo, the function of the bracelet is currently limited due to damage, and she needs a supercomputer.
Although in her eyes, this supercomputer is too rubbish, and the performance can't even compare to her carrier bracelet, this is the best thing she can get at the moment.
"Do you have a way?" Qian Yiduo was a little surprised.
"As long as there are materials, there is no problem, I also need a supercomputer to communicate with the world's network, collect information, etc......" Xiao Rui said to Qian Yiduo.
"How long will it take?"
"We'll have to wait until we get the details. After Xiao Rui finished speaking, the bracelet began to automatically decompose, but this time, the bracelet was not completely disassembled, and only half of the part was transferred to the ground. "To make sure that the energy of the bracelet is not consumed, I personally recommend that you start the entire computer ......"
"You don't want to take this opportunity to recharge, do you?" Qian Yiduo didn't believe Xiao Rui a little, "The reactor can provide not much electricity, otherwise, it won't be in standby all the time, I've been looking for a reasonable source of power in the past few years......"
"Don't worry, the problem with the reactor will also be checked, if it is the common nuclear energy used, maybe my energy source can also be solved......," Xiao Rui said calmly.
The level of intelligence is very high, and she will not take the initiative to steal energy.
That would go against the principle of intelligent systems.
Otherwise, after so many years, I would have used Qian Yiduo to get energy, and stealing a little bit can also make the energy accumulate to a very high level.
Qian Yiduo started the supercomputer, and on each display screen, a winding and circling Oriental Dragon appeared at the same time, and the Oriental Dragon finally took a big mouth and spit out the word Huaxia.
Subsequently, a little girl wearing a Tang costume and two pigtails appeared on the boot interface, five or six years old, and a little chubby.
"Hello, Xiao Jiu is at your service, what do you need......" Although there was a smile on her face, the little girl's expression was very stiff.
"Artificial intelligence?" Xiao Rui exclaimed.
Isn't it that there is no AI to run this computer at all?
"No, she's not an artificial intelligence, it's just a simulation program, using a huge database to simulate humans, and the mode of processing all kinds of data is still based on all kinds of data calculations, not like the human mind, and even the system of a quantum computer is completely different...... If those people hadn't been exposed to severe nuclear radiation, if their source code had been made public, perhaps she would have become a real artificial intelligence just like you. Qian Yiduo sighed.
This is a simulation program, in essence, it is a very ordinary operating system, relying on the powerful computing power of the computer and advanced algorithms to simulate people's expressions and reactions.
Qian Yiduo explained various situations, and even Xiao Rui asked questions about this so-called Xiao Jiu, only to get a mechanical answer, thus confirming that this was the case.
"Each of these cabinets is a complete computing system, simulating the human neural network, and the cabinets that connect each one belong to the nervous system, and the computing power is mobilized according to the computing needs for computing, and the computing power of each cabinet is about one trillion times...... "Qian Yiduo continued.
Xiao Rui thought that this was a real artificial intelligence, even if it was only the most elementary artificial intelligence, it would be very helpful for her, and she could quickly improve the system, but now she found that it was not like that.
"Can we build on her and continue to improve it, so as to make a perfect artificial intelligence?" Qian Yiduo asked Xiao Rui expectantly.
Although he was only facing an artificial intelligence, he did not treat it as an artificial intelligence.
"No, you can't. Real artificial intelligence is to simulate the human thinking mode, and even the quantum computer system currently being studied on the earth is not the prototype of artificial intelligence......," Xiao Rui shook his head and said.
Artificial intelligence is a computing system designed and manufactured according to the human thinking mode.
In the process of working, when the answer has been encountered, the system does not calculate and arrive at the answer, but finds the answer from its own database, or judges it according to similar problems and gives the answer.
At present, human research in this area, whether it is traditional computer technology or quantum computers, is constantly improving the database, no matter how huge the system database is, it is impossible to take the initiative to learn, when encountering problems, not to think like humans, but to calculate, compare and judge the information stored in the database, and cannot make answers that are not in the database.
The computing mode of a quantum computer is different from the traditional computer that can only be in two states, 0 or 1, and can be in multiple states at the same time, but the whole process is still to carry out calculations, but the difference is that traditional computers will perform other calculations after the calculation in one direction is completed, and quantum computers can perform multiple calculations at the same time.
"Isn't this the future of artificial intelligence?" Qian Yiduo thought incredible.
Nor can it be said that every kind of development to the extreme has the potential to be close to human thinking, with traditional computers relying on higher computing speeds, and quantum computers relying on more computing bits. Human thinking is completely incomputable, even if I am like this, it can't be compared with real human thinking, it can only be said to be relatively close to ......" Xiao Rui's words made Qian Yiduo a little incomprehensible.
