After the meeting, Luo Sheng returned to his office, and Gao Hua, the person in charge of the virtual brain-computer project, came with him.

After the meeting, Luo Sheng directly approved a R&D budget of 100 billion yuan to him, and also went to the Cote d'Azur Laboratory with Gao Hua to see the progress of the virtual brain-computer project department.

It is worth mentioning that "Côte d'Azur laboratory" is just a general term, which refers to the most powerful comprehensive R&D institution of Côte d'Azur companies, and there are R&D centers with Côte d'Azur laboratories all over the world.

The emphasis on talent is well-known in the industry, and some geniuses are weird and don't like to be far from home.

The Côte d'Azur said that there is no problem, if you have the ability, I will pay to build a research institute near your home, and you don't have to drive to work, you can walk to it.

The reputation of the current Cte d'Azur laboratory is thunderous all over the world, and everyone in the global scientific and technological community knows about it, and it has even entered some primary school textbooks.

People no longer call it "Bell Labs of the East", this is no longer enough, it has become as famous as AT&T Group's "Bell Labs" and Lockheed Martin's core advanced research department "Skunk Works", and is a globally recognized "black technology" R&D center in the world today.

And Bell Labs has declined, and it would be too unreasonable to say that it is the "Bell Labs of the East", but the Côte d'Azur Labs is the youngest.

Speaking of youth, Google's "X Labs" are also very young and very well-known now, but considerably, in terms of influence and the output of technical products, Google's "X Labs" are a notch weaker.

……

Côte d'Azur Laboratory, Virtual Brain-Computer Project Department.

Luo Sheng came to an independent research building, which is dedicated to the headquarters of the virtual brain-computer project department, and is the only single project department and headquarters within the group company so far.

Having headquarters means having branches, and those branches are located all over the world.

Ninety percent of the technology of the virtual brain computer is blank, is unknown, is to continue to expand the boundaries of technology little by little, covering not only one or two scientific fields, but interdisciplinary applications, involving electronics, biology, materials, human brain and other fields of discipline application research, the project department research funds are overspent every year is not unreasonable.

At this moment, Gao Hua took Luo Sheng to wander around the laboratory, the internal space is very large, the walls of the partition are made of transparent glass separation walls, engineers, researchers, and scholars are busy with their own work, and they happen to say hello to Luo Sheng and then continue to be busy with their work.

The employees here all know Luo Sheng, but Luo Sheng knows less than 1% of them, and most of the 1% they know are one-sided, but Luo Sheng's memory is very good, and he will remember it even if it is a long time after meeting.

"Different technical principles lead to very different applications, Google's virtual reality relies on human sensory feedback, while Musk's minimally invasive brain-computer interface is derived from the physical structure of human bioelectricity."

Luo Sheng stopped and looked, and Gao Hua, who accompanied him, introduced two sentences from time to time, the project was set up by the big boss himself, but he hardly came in person.

At this time, Luo Sheng saw through the transparent wall that in a laboratory, several staff members were doing a test, and one of the testers had a shaved head, and his head had conductive glue and some wiring.

The subject looked intently at the screen in front of him, which was the interface of the Tetris game, but he did not use his hands, but instead used his "mind" to guide the game.

At the same time, Gao Hua continued: "Biology believes that almost every cell is a miniature generator, and every subtle physiological activity of the human body is related to bioelectricity, such as heart beating, muscle contraction, brain thinking, and so on. The transmission of information between neuronal cells, which is done by bioelectrical signals. ”

"If these bioelectric signals can be captured and collected, and directly converted into computer-readable information, then a direct interaction bridge between humans and computers can be built, and the data interaction capability of this bridge will far exceed that of any current physical terminal, and even kill Azure-5 mobile phones."

Luo Sheng, still paying attention to the tester who used his brain consciousness to play Tetris, said: "It looks like it's going well." ”

Gao Hua followed his line of sight, glanced at it, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "To tell the truth, Mr. Luo, I have been stuck here for several years, the pain point is that it takes too much brainpower, and the tester must concentrate and be highly focused, otherwise the signal will be distorted and the wrong logical signal will be fed, and it will be too energy-consuming for people, and the product experience is very bad." ”

"In fact, we have found two related problems, the first is how to get the right information from the inside of the brain; Second, how do you send the right information to the brain? Problem one is about receiving the output of the brain, i.e., recording the words of neurons; The second question is about feeding information into the brain's neural network, or altering the flow of nerves, i.e., stimulating neurons. ”

These two things themselves are naturally sent in the brain, just like a person's eyes are doing some horizontal movements, so that he sees the picture in front of him, which is the neurons of the brain output information to the machine, that is, the human eye, and the eye receives this information and responds appropriately.

Entering the retina through the eye, the neurons in the occipital lobe are stimulated to make the image enter the person's mind, and the image stimulates other neurons in the brain so that the person can process and store the information in these images, and then understand the outside world.

Gao added: "When we really understand what's going on inside the brain, we realize that understanding these questions is probably the hardest thing humans can do. ”

At this moment, Luo Sheng retracted his gaze and looked at Gao Hua: "This is the hardest thing that human beings can do?" How do I not find it that hard? ”

Gao Hua was stunned when he heard this, and was stunned for a moment and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Luo, I will talk to death this day, how can I take what you say~"

Luo Sheng smiled: "It's really not very difficult, I've already done it myself, I'll copy a copy of the information to you when I go back, you can access it from the cloud." ”

Gao Hua's eyes suddenly widened: "What? This...... Mr. Luo, you're not kidding, are you? ”

Luo Sheng said calmly: "Do you think that when I am the shopkeeper, I don't do anything at night?" I also have my own private laboratory, don't forget your boss, my specialty is artificial intelligence, which can be regarded as a cross-border linkage. ”

The androids are all out, and a large number of technologies are suitable for virtual brain computers.

Gao Hua was in ecstasy after reacting, he was so surprised, he didn't expect that the big boss was also silently researching and developing.

Now after coming back to his senses, I realized that the big boss is not only a founder and entrepreneur, but also a technology master, but what made him famous was because he founded several super technology giants and unprecedented wealth, and his identity as a technology master was gradually ignored by people.

Gao Hua also realized that the best thing about BOSS is artificial intelligence technology, and the artificial intelligence technology of the Cote d'Azur company is in an absolute leading position in the world, and the actual core contributor is the founder himself.

Luo Sheng asked instead: "By the way, have you found a solution for the real immersive experience?" ”
