Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Nine: This Is Artificial Intelligence?
After giving a brief introduction to the entire building, Wu Hao immediately took everyone to the control area on the left, and then introduced to everyone: "Leaders, experts, this is the management and control center of our entire 'Dao' super photon computer.
And what's on the surveillance screen on this side is our way, 'Super Photon Computer.' ”
Hearing Wu Hao's introduction, everyone couldn't help but look at it carefully. Many experts also took out their glasses and put them on, and looked at them very carefully.
Wu Hao didn't rush to urge, but let everyone check it, and he answered the questions raised by everyone from time to time.
When it was introduced, these people finally couldn't help it. Yuan Yonghong looked at Wu Hao with an eager face and said enthusiastically: "Xiao Wu, can we go down and take a closer look." ”
"Of course there is no problem, everyone here, please." Wu Hao nodded and smiled.
Immediately, everyone took the elevator to the fifteenth floor, and as soon as the elevator door opened, everyone couldn't help but be attracted by the scene in front of them.
"This is the superphotonic computer we developed, and the pillars that you see in front of you are the main body of our superphotonic computer.
There are a total of 108 columns, and each column contains a total of 400 photonic computing modules, which adds up to 43,200 photonic computing modules.
43,200 photonic modules can provide this superphotonic computer with a peak computing speed of 607,588 TFlop/s, or 6,075.88 billion operations per second.
Although it is not as good as the 11 billion supercomputer (2024) of the United States, which is currently ranked first, it is already at the forefront of the supercomputer field.
More importantly, we have solved the problem of high energy consumption and easy heat generation of supercomputers, and the power consumption of our superphotonic computer at full load is only one-tenth of that of other similar supercomputers.
Its overall volume is much smaller than that of other supercomputers.
At the beginning of the design of our superphotonic computer, the subsequent upgrade and optimization were taken into account, so the modular design was adopted.
This can not only facilitate future maintenance and repair, but also facilitate the upgrading and replacement of related parts.
In the future, we will replace it with more powerful photonic chips, which will further reduce their energy consumption and size, and the computing speed will increase dramatically, surpassing the fastest supercomputers at present. ”
"It's about the same size as our supercomputer." Chen Guangtian nodded and said.
"It's about the same, but the computing efficiency has increased by more than ten times, which is a huge improvement. And that's without the use of photonic chips. ”
Speaking of this, Yuan Yonghong looked at these glowing pillars and said to Wu Hao: "To be precise, your super-photonic computer has not really been developed, it can only be regarded as a prototype and verification engineering machine. ”
"You're right, it's not really a success." Wu Hao nodded and replied: "It's just that the development of photonic chips has not progressed, and we are very eager to have a supercomputer now, so we will develop it for emergency use first."
When the photonic chip is successfully developed, we can quickly replace it and upgrade the core computing components, so as to further release its computing power.
Everyone, please! ”
With that, Wu Hao led everyone to a pillar. Then he gently tapped his finger on the column, and saw a drawer or a glowing crystal module pop out of the column.
"This is my photonic computing module, and these light-emitting columns are all made up of these modules.
Each photonic computing module can be regarded as an independent photonic computer, or it can be regarded as a processor of a supercomputer.
Each photonic computing module consists of two parts. One is the core of the entire photonic computation module, the photonic combinator. The other part is the electronic components that serve the entire photonic combinator.
The photonic combinator can also be seen as a photonic chip, but it is not integrated. Although it is much larger than the average chip processor, its performance is also very outstanding.
The structure of the entire photonic combinator is very complex, and it is an integrated optical path composed of a laser with a stable light source, a complex lens prism, a reflector and other optical lens groups.
If it is the use of traditional structure, traditional technology, it is simply impossible. And we also use the composite lens processing technology to manufacture and process it. ”
As he spoke, Wu Hao took the entire module directly from the column, and the module finally darkened.
"The disassembly and replacement of each module is very simple, and we can replace and overhaul these modules at any time, and this process can be completed by our engineers and technicians, or it can be automatically completed by our intelligent robots."
Speaking of this, Wu Hao raised his voice and said: "Coco, the 61st column operation module is faulty, and an intelligent robot will be sent over to inspect and repair it immediately." ”
"Yes, sir!" A very intellectual voice immediately came from my impression.
"This is artificial intelligence?" Li Weiguo's eyes lit up instantly, and then he asked him.
Wu Hao nodded and replied: "Yes, the entire building, including the entire park, is in charge of the artificial intelligence system, I can call it in any area of the park and give it instructions." ”
"I've heard that your intelligent voice assistant is also called 'Coco', what's the connection between the two." Chen Guangtian asked at him.
"Yes, it's actually it." Wu Hao explained with a smile: "My intelligent voice assistant is also the prototype, or matrix, of all our intelligent voice assistant systems on the market. All experiments and updates will only be released after it has been verified on it, and it will be synchronized to other intelligent voice assistant systems for updates.
Because the company's employees were familiar with it before, after the construction was completed here, I moved it here and continued to serve everyone.
In fact, it's just an intelligent voice program, and it's the intelligent brain behind it that really makes decisions. ”
Wu Hao replied half-truthfully, he naturally couldn't tell everyone that his intelligent voice assistant 'Coco' itself was an artificial intelligence brain.
As they spoke, they saw a robot with flashing police lights driving towards the No. 61 pillar in front of them.
At the same time, the modules on the entire sixty-one columns began to flicker and self-check. Eventually, a red light flashed in the area where Wu Hao took the module.
As for the intelligent robot, it came directly to this column, and then stretched out its robotic arm and began to detect it.
