Chapter 412: Intelligence
The investment in movies has cost more than 100 million, and it is not much to spend on three films, two of which are commercial productions, and the other is more connotative, not a noisy commercial blockbuster, which is also appreciated by An Feng. Usually the critically acclaimed and award-winning films are not commercial films, but have depth.
Once things are done, it's April.
During these days, An Feng's daughter has gained some weight, her little face is chubby, white and red, looking at it makes people want to take a bite, when An Feng hugged her, this thought came out more than once, but she still likes her father to kiss her, if she grows up and let her know the truth......
"Alice's hair is getting longer." An Feng hugged her and sat on the bench by the lake, teasing the little one.
Joanna came over to take a look and nodded: "The color has also darkened, and it is estimated that after a year or two, it will become the same black as you." β
"According to the example of mixed genetics, the color of black hair will not be that dark." An Feng said, "If only she had a pair of sapphire blue eyes, it would be cute." β
"Then we have to have this gene." Joanna smiled.
"It's a pity that the eye color didn't inherit yours."
"Black eyes are pretty too." Joanna reached over and gently grabbed her little hand, "Isn't it, baby?" β
Alice shook her mother's hand, her mouth open, and Joanna said, "You see she smiled." β
"It's funny." An Feng said, at this time, the mobile phone on his body rang, "You hug her, I'll answer the phone." β
When I took it out, it was my mother calling, and An Feng answered: "Mom, do you care about your granddaughter again?" β
An Feng's parents went back in March, and there is another bear child at home to take care of, but every once in a while, they like to call and ask. Don't worry about this, don't worry about that, even if there is a professional baby nanny at home, but the elderly always have their own concerns.
I talked to my mother for about ten minutes, and I kept responding with "uh-huh-hmm", and finally ended the call on the grounds that calling too much affected the children next to me.
Joanna said, "Mom loves children so much. Let's let her stay longer next time. β
"The problem is that they're going to get bored." An Feng said that the room at home is always empty, but the elderly are not used to the language and customs here.
"Also, only the two of us can communicate." Joanna knows this very well.
After saying a few words, the phone rang, and it was an email. An Feng picked it up and looked at it, and made a call: "John, how are things?" β
"We got a reply from the Spurs owner that they were considering selling. But the question of price needs to be negotiated. β
An Feng thought for a while: "I have a trip to Texas next week on official business, you see if the other party is free, if you can, prepare." β
"Okay, I'll prepare." John said.
After hanging up the phone, An Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "This year there is finally a place to spend money, it is not easy to spend money, child, you will have to be smarter than me in the future!" β
"Did you say?" He held his head up to Alice. She screamed a few times.
Joanna smiled: "It is said that educating children to be economical, how can anyone teach her like this will cost more money than you?" β
"Hahaha!" An Feng smiled. "So she's unique, right, little princess?"
An Feng scratched her fingers, and the little guy moved his hands and feet, and laughed.
β¦β¦
A few days later, An Feng set off with a few assistants.
The plane landed in Austin. An Feng was not interested in participating in business negotiations, so he asked John to talk to Spurs owner Holt on his behalf, and when things were almost done, he came forward to sign a contract. The main purpose of this visit to Texas was the GP company, which has not made a big move for a long time.
Of course, whether it's GP Energy or GP Electronics. They are all pushing through the old and consolidating their unshakable position, and the reports on the market also revolve around them, but An Feng believes that the big move is another breakthrough in science and technology, such as quantum computers and intelligence that have lasted for many years.
In fact, R&D can be faster, but An Feng is riddled with things, and the foundation of the R&D team is weak, so he can only let Mr. G, the third virtual person, give them a lecture. An Feng stored some of his own feelings and understandings, and watched them repeatedly, and the progress broke through little by little.
Finally, recently, the AI team has made a breakthrough.
The R&D team headed by Song Wenrui, more than 20 elites, through superconductor technology, realized the operation of the quantum computer based on An Feng's theory, and the matter is currently strictly confidential, because they are not sure whether it is correct, and they need An Feng, who is always a divine judgment in this regard, to do the final test.
According to reports, most of the parts inside are superconductors, and with the help of refrigerant, they have always maintained a superconducting environment of minus 15 degrees, and successfully carried out calculations based on quantum algorithms.
Song Wenrui said: "At present, its computing power is not as good as the Ares computer, let alone GP's new architecture, but its potential is extremely huge, and the computing power is doubling exponentially with each generation, and if it is maintained, it will surpass the computing power of all computers in the world combined." β
According to the theory, the computing power of a quantum computer can be powerful enough to encompass the universe...... An Feng wasn't sure if it was that strong, but now these definitely won't work.
Because he has done a lot of research and development.
It can only be said that the older this person is, the more eyes he has, or the more comprehensive he thinks.
An Feng does not doubt his team, but there are some things that the team cannot control, quantum computers, robotics industry, nuclear industry, genetic theory...... There are too many things that are not suitable for being handed over to the world in advance, so he has made appropriate adjustments quietly.
For example, this batch of quantum computers, it can only be counted as a quantum computer, and it is difficult for it to surpass the supercomputer composed of graphene chips, that is, it is only a few steps away from real success, but if it can't deal with the difficulties, these steps can be tens or hundreds of years.
Only he can do it in a short time.
It's a semi-finished product, usable, but not complete, and the team saves him a lot of time, and the rest shouldn't be made public too early, so he has to do it himself, or let an intelligent program he can trust to do it - that's why he needs robots and artificial intelligence.
"We have added a bionic structure, based on a quantum computer, with a bionic computer as the core, to create intelligence with a certain logic." Song Wenrui paused. "But it can only be said that it has the intelligence equivalent to that of a six- or seven-year-old child, and the logic is very simple."
"It's going to grow up." An Feng said, "Let's start testing." β
Song Wenrui nodded at the others.
The current biological intelligence has the "senses" of the outside world, so it can talk directly, An Feng asked: "What is your name?" β
It does not have a sound system, and the text is displayed on the screen: "Number X005." No name yet. β
An Feng asked, "Then do you know what you are?" β
"Machines?" It put a question mark on it.
"Yes, you're a machine, a special machine capable of thinking." An Feng said.
"What is 'thinking'?" There are also question marks at the end of machine statements. Unlike a normal computer, it is capable of questioning a problem, not judging or not.
An Feng was actually stopped by it, he didn't think about what it was, the patent of intelligent creatures?
Song Wenrui reminded beside him: "If it is too complicated, its program cannot be understood, and the explanation you give it must be concise enough to be digested." β
An Feng continued to chat with it about some simple content, which felt like communicating with a child. You have to be simple and even patient - because it can be distracted. The whole result is very magical, and there are many questions about the intelligent machine.
After the test, the machine hibernated.
An Feng and technicians came to the R&D office to discuss some complex content.
Song Wenrui introduced the part of intelligence generation: "It is different from the traditional brain as we understand it, its logic part is in the bionic machine, and the process borrows from the quantum computer, which can also be understood as borrowing the brain of the computer." The stronger a quantum computer is, the more mature it becomes. β
"We build a sensory system. Connected to the senses is a hierarchical storage system that operates on the working principle of the cerebral cortex, training it is like educating a child, after repeated training, the intelligent machine will build its own model of the world through its own senses, and we do not need to edit the program to instill in it our artificial imagination. It's very similar to the human brain and understands itself. β
An Feng listened to the main report, combined with what he had experienced, and determined that simple intelligence had been generated, but it was not yet the complete artificial intelligence he hoped for. At present, it is based on human rules, and it is still very simple, and children who are six or seven years old, even if they evolve, are only in their teens.
And then there's the structure they're using, which is based on a huge computing concept, so that the smarter the AI is, the more it thinks β it will reduce its lifespan. Like people, if you think too much, you will go crazy, if you think too much, you will get confused, and your lifespan may only be six or seven years.
But there is a first step in everything, and now is the historic moment of artificial intelligence.
This level of intelligence, after complete modification, can manage robots or dedicated networks according to Anfeng's requirements. It's enough for now, so An Feng is very satisfied. "We can think about building a sensory system to perfect it," he said. β
"We're preparing for that." Song Wenrui said.
"Good." An Feng nodded, "One more question, what is its name?" β
Song Wenrui said: "Hal, H-A-L. β
βHALοΌβ An Feng thought for a moment, "Space Odyssey? β
"Yes." Song Wenrui smiled and nodded, "Every letter is in front of IBM." β
"Interesting, but hopefully it won't do something deranged in the future." An Feng said.
Space Odyssey, is Arthur. In a series of science fiction novels by Clark, Song Wenrui's name for intelligence comes from the artificial intelligence "Hal" in it, and Hal in the novel had a problem on the way, killing the astronauts, and making the protagonist pass the "odyssey" addiction of space drifting.
Song Wenrui said: "Of course not, the fundamental program we make it is to obey human beings, even if the wisdom is high, it is also a machine that follows the program, and the self-protection mechanism will eliminate the hidden danger of disorder." Just as man made a gun but also had insurance, it also had insurance. (To be continued......)
