317 How big does a box need to be for a person
"Looks like they're looking for saviors." When he saw the latest report from Wu Qing, Wu Xiaoqing sighed.
Then he called Shen Changwen and wanted him to come to the company to discuss, but it was the search and rescue team who answered the phone.
"Professor Shen is on the rescue boat," the search and rescue team said, "and he knew the news while you were sleeping, and is now verifying whether it is true or not." ”
"How do you verify it?" Wu Xiaoqing suddenly thought of Xu Yan, "It won't be for him to go, right?" ”
"For the time being, no one is needed," the search and rescue team said, "and we only need to send in a mobile phone for the predetermined coordinates, keep the shooting in place, and take it back immediately after a few seconds." ”
"A few seconds is enough?"
"That's enough."
"Okay." Wu Xiaoqing got up from the bed and began to get dressed.
Just bought a few steamed buns at the nearest shop, Wu Xiaoqing went to the company while gnawing, but met Yan Yan and Chen She downstairs, several people were in a hurry, and they didn't notice that Wu Xiaoqing was behind them, it seems that they have been busy enough recently.
"There have been a lot of consultations recently," He Yuqing lowered her head and checked the list that had just been confirmed, "There will be three in the morning alone." ”
"Networked?"
"Yes, it's all online lately, which saves money than inviting real people."
"But the boss said it would be better to invite a real person."
"That is, I found out that many people said while Baidu...... It's really an idiot for the company. He Yuqing said indignantly.
In fact, if it weren't for the supervision of the search and rescue team, the whole company would be really an idiot, the person who asked questions with Baidu and major forums had already participated in several meetings before, but he was lucky, and he encountered all the times when the search and rescue team was not there, including Wu Xiaoqing and Shen Changwen, and Yan Yan When they were in charge, not only did they not notice it at all, but some of them answered Wu Xiaoqing and felt that the answer was good.
"Actually, it's not the company's fault," Chen She had talked to the search and rescue team about this issue before - of course, he thought it was communicating with Wu Xiaoqing, "With the expansion of the company's business, the company's future consulting direction will also change. ”
"Does this show that the company is growing fast?"
"It's our business though...... But for the company, it is a cost," Chen She said, "The company is about to set up a special online question department, which is dedicated to discussing some issues with low technical content but more need for association ability on the network forum." ”
"Then we should work directly with the website."
"Yes, that's one thing...... But...... Mr. Wu! When he entered the elevator, Chen She turned around and finally saw Wu Xiaoqing, who had quietly followed.
Wu Xiaoqing nodded: "Do you continue to talk, I think it's very good, and you can also exchange business knowledge when you chat." ”
"After all, did we get paid," Chen She said, "Why do we eat steamed bun......s for breakfast?"
Yan Yan's eyes were very sharp: "This steamed bun is not delicious, or I'll help you buy another one, their fried food is amazing." ”
Wu Qing shook his head: "No need, it's almost all over now." "Besides, the elevator is also off.
After arriving at the company, Wu Xiaoqing went to his computer for the first time, wanting to see what fresh and interesting results were reported in the consultation meeting yesterday, but found that there was a consultation meeting going on, and he joined in, and it was Rao Xin who presided over the meeting.
"Mr. Wu is here." Rao Xin's voice was a little hoarse, and when he heard it, he knew that it was the sequelae of talking too much. Shen Changwen and Wu Xiaoqing's throats also had this symptom, although it seemed that they were just listening with their ears, but when it came to the content they were concerned about, they still couldn't help but participate in the debate.
"All night?"
"Yes, it's an American over there, and the jet lag is reversed." In the evil capitalist world, as long as money is given and money is in place, the so-called "family first, companionship is important, and never overtime" is immediately a. - It's a pity that the project is so urgent that Americans can't stay up late enough and have to work overtime 24 hours a day.
The topic of the meeting was about Wu Qing and the others sent over, this latest report - in the report, they claimed that they had received the support of some of the Federation, and now they have identified many teleportation points for the Second Earth server, as long as they can find a way to create a storage device corresponding to the Federation civilization, theoretically speaking, they can take Wu Qing and them back at any time, completely avoiding the possibility of them being captured by the Federation.
The most important part of this consultation meeting is to test the possibility of this "theory".
All of them were experts in information and procedures from all over the world, including some of the technical leaders of leading industries in technology, and the attraction of inviting them to this conference was not from the consulting fees of Blue Consulting.
In fact, these people are limited to professional ethics and necessary confidentiality regulations, and will not agree to any form of paid technical advice, the biggest reason why they come here is simply because the consulting meeting of Qinglan Company has become a new trend in many academic circles.
In the academic circles around the world, in the past year or so, have begun to pay attention to this mysterious Qinglan Consulting - from the emergence of this company for nearly a year, gradually with absurd issues, rich remuneration, careful reasoning, began to be known by more and more people, and recently, the consultation will be at any cost, in the world has carried out a large number of repeated consultations, including a large number of scholars who consult most of an important topic.
According to these scholars, their academic level often feels unacceptable in the face of the organizers' doubts, and after these people return, they begin to speculate whether the topics of these consultations may involve large-scale classified projects in a certain country.
For example, at the last consultation meeting, some experts were even convinced that he saw a complete set of technical processes about antimatter batteries, which felt like a physicist in the Newtonian era saw the theory of relativity for the first time - for earthlings, this technology is definitely not feasible in reality at all, and the energy consumed for the preparation of antimatter batteries alone is a terrible astronomical amount for earthlings.
Earthlings now struggle to even meet the basic power supply, let alone spend expensive electricity to make antimatter batteries.
It's like a poor Hanako seeing a recipe for a top-notch Huaiyang dish, and this recipe has no practical meaning for Hanako except drooling.
But academia is one of the most drooling professions – many high-energy physicists have already given credit for these preparations, which means that if the earth now has enough materials, it would theoretically be easy for them to make the dish.
This makes people curious about the originator of this recipe.
Many technical leaders of companies come to the consultation meeting, not to speak, but to listen to others, to "see" the information provided by the organizer for free, and commercial companies are always more sensitive to the possibility of advanced technology than government departments - so far government departments have not sent such a level of talent.
And this meeting undoubtedly satisfied this desire of most people.
But after all, a consultation meeting is a consultation meeting, and no matter what purpose they come to, they still have to say what they need to say - otherwise there will be no invitation next time.
A designer engaged in computer hardware manufacturing just stood up and was about to speak, but he opened his mouth, his face was flushed, but he didn't say a word, and after drinking water twice to relieve it, he said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm a little too excited, first of all, I want to apologize, because I have been reading technical materials before, thinking about the possibility of this civilization's hardware technology......"
"Of course I know it's a fictional setting, but as a matter of professional habit, I think you can all understand that I can't help but want to find out where he's not technically rigorous. But ......"
“…… The meeting lasted three hours, I thought about it for three hours, and for three hours I didn't hear a single word that the other speakers had said. ”
"All I have to say is that, in my professional opinion, this setting is technically possible. Of course, it is a pity that it is impossible for our earth to replicate it at present, because it means a complete subversion of computer principles and basic processes of industrial manufacturing......"
"I'm just here to pay my respects to Blue Consulting, and although it's just a virtual idea, it allows me to see something more shocking.
"The other point I want to make on this topic is whether our Earth can make the memory of the Federation people."
"My answer is yes, but it's going to be very expensive and it's not easy to use – it's very inconvenient."
"It has been calculated that the amount of storage that a simulated AI needs to occupy is about a dozen petabytes, and with the current technology of the earth, the smallest volume we can do with a petabyte is about the size of a laptop."
In other words, even if we can rescue all three virtual people, the "container" we need will end up like a large suitcase. ”
"But even if we did make it, we wouldn't be able to deal with the next question — how do we fit such a huge program into it?"
"The procedure is not banknotes, it is not gold bars, and if we just rob a bank and take such a huge suitcase and go to great lengths to sneak into the vault, then the problem is very simple, just open the box and fill it in."
"What limits the operation of the whole operation is the storage speed compared to this kind of memory."
"In the industry, even the most advanced data centers can now achieve the most extreme storage speeds, which will not exceed 15 Gigits per second, and the average engineering speed can be around 10 Gigabs - usually we don't use that much."
"Let's not talk about whether this portable memory can achieve such high speeds – if it can."
"What AI data is there now, and the amount of data added up is estimated to be about 50 petabytes, and then you have to add the necessary environment to run them, which is much larger than the AI data itself. Even if we were only going to ship out the AI data itself, without the need for an environment — 50 petabytes of data — that's nearly five million seconds — more than 1,300 hours, almost two months. ”
In the setting, the rescue time is required to be as short as possible - the planner's idea seems to be the same as that of an ordinary company stealing key technical secrets. Plug the hard drive in, copy and paste, and take it away, no more than a few minutes, no more than a few hours. ”
"I have to say that the proposer of this technology really overestimates the technological level of the earth, which is like using a disk from 30 years ago to steal a large game in a modern computer, and the amount of data and the requirements for computer hardware on both sides are not at the same level at all."
After listening to this, Wu Xiaoqing touched his nose in embarrassment, because this plan was exactly what he proposed - of course, he was only proposing a conceptual opinion, in his subconscious, it seemed that the theft of data was a more "convenient and fast" way, obviously, "Wu Qing" was the same as he thought, so they now sent the memory addresses of all the servers.
But apparently they were all wrong.
