Scientists are a group of straightforward people, they will be happy with the praise of others, others will deny their research results, they will also show that their son has been beaten by others to protect the calf, they can't hide things at all, and they will say whatever comes to mind.

"Taylor, do you have any other thoughts on the office of the future that you are planning to create?"

Seeing that the other party was complaining to himself, Yao Fei felt that he could make a little more material next.

"Ethernet technology, in '76 my friend Metcalfe and his assistant Boggs published an article on "Distributed Packet Switching Technology for Local Area Computer Networks", and at the end of the second year, we applied for a patent.

At that time, we recommended this kind of network technology to the head office, but they also denied promoting our research results, believing that computer products are very expensive, and the use of computers is limited to computer professionals, which has no great commercial value, and if you invest too much money, it is a commercial gamble.

In order to prove his research, Melekaf left here and founded 3com on his own, and persuaded Diguido, Intel, and finally the head office, and last year the four companies worked together to develop the Ethernet standard.

If those people in the head office had a little brain, this standard would have belonged to us completely, and not just as a participant, as it is now! ”

Computer, Ethernet, the former Xerox Parker Institute is completely the cradle of information technology, but unfortunately it is due to the ignorance of Xerox leaders or the adoption of too conservative business strategies, all of which have missed the opportunity for the company's rise again and again.

"Yes, taking the current situation as an example, although the construction cost of Ethernet is very high, as long as the technical reserves are made, with the continuous progress of technology in other fields, the cost reduction is an inevitable trend.

At that time, computers can communicate with each other at any time, and people will also enter the information age, taking your target future office as an example, in the future, people's office processes can be completely through a complete set of electronic processes, and computers with high storage capacity will completely replace paper.

And the place where people hold meetings will also become more flexible, there is no need to meet together like the people attending the meeting now, and then only need to open their own communication network, through the voice and video camera system, they can completely communicate with each other face-to-face.

The company's employees no longer need to communicate the tasks assigned to their subordinates, but only need to enter the content of the task, and then gently click the enter key, and the employees who are assigned the task can receive the task through the network in all corners of the world in various ways.

With the development of network technology, our society will undergo earth-shaking changes, not only people's lifestyles will be very much changed, but also will have a huge impact on social and economic development, economic structure, employment direction, international economic form and trade form will have a series of changes! ”

Ethernet, this is the first time he has heard this term that can completely change the world in this era, which can't help but make him feel a little excited, and at the same time, he is more determined to catch this group of computer geniuses.

To this end, he also slightly revealed his outlook for the future of Ethernet, increasing the other party's sense of identity with their research results, although this may bring some trouble to Yao Fei's next development, but compared to his own sense of identity to the other party, Yao Fei feels that this is very worthwhile.

Following Taylor's footsteps, Yao Fei continued to greet everyone he met warmly along the way, and emotional investment didn't cost money anyway.

"Hi guys, has there been any progress on your Fred? Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Yao Fei, the founder of Feiyue Technology, I think if you encounter any problems that you have been unable to solve, you can ask him, maybe he will have some useful ideas......"

Before Xerox released that advertisement for the office of the future in '79, several computer experts at their Parker Institute had already begun to fight for their ideals and began to study artificial intelligence technology.

However, they don't know what they do, if they want to achieve artificial intelligence, it not only requires the continuous efforts of a few of them, but also the joint efforts of the whole society to make progress, but even so, so far they have achieved some shining research results, such as word processing software, data management software.

"Fred? Is there something he needs help with? Delightfully, gentlemen! ”

Yao Fei hadn't seen Xerox's advertisement, so he naturally subconsciously thought Fred was someone.

"No, man, Fred is the code name for our research topic, and we hope to eventually develop a smart computer that can recognize our language, understand what we are trying to say, and even do some analysis of things to help us make decisions.

We're in trouble right now, very big, because we've integrated the syntax of our language into its chip, but when we do the translation recognition of the captured sounds, the conversion recognition rate is very low.

Then there are emotions, which are completely unrecognizable, and in these chips, they just treat the emotions we need to express as simple words, and they can't even be recognized because of the non-standard pronunciation......"

Every step of scientific research is full of hardships, after working hard for a long time, it is still found that there is still an insurmountable gap between the ideal and the reality, everyone will have some emotions, scientists are also people, although their brains can carry out complex and difficult calculations, but after all, they are not a sophisticated machine, as long as there is power, they can run non-stop.

"Well, admittedly, it's a maddening question because we all know that we can't keep our standard pronunciation all the time.

Because we come from different places, we speak differently, from the grammatical differences between British English and American English to the local languages of each place, and these differences cannot be avoided.

I have some premature ideas about this problem, and yesterday I visited Mr. Moore of Intel Corporation, and they invented an exception handling mechanism technique, the key of this technique is that when an error is encountered, it can automatically match the various solutions that are pre-set to avoid the program crashing.

In the same way, you can also use this idea in your chip, and you can also use some fuzzy recognition techniques to simulate our thinking methods, and then recognize our language......"

Artificial intelligence, this is a profound subject, to have the courage to study it, needless to say that they are all genius experts, at this time to show their hands in front of these people, of course, it is also very necessary, even if Yao Fei gave them the next research ideas, the next lot of meticulous work will still make these people love and hate.

"Good-idea, exception handling mechanism, fuzzy recognition, and we can also use limited selection techniques to filter more complex statements and improve the recognition success rate, great, guys, let's do it......"
