Chapter 249: Resurgence
"Musco, something happened."
As soon as SpaceX's president, Musk, entered the office in the morning when Aemond, the company's chief technology officer, rushed in and shouted.
"What's the matter? Do we have some parts of magic technology in our rockets? ”
During this time, Musk was very troubled, not only did its Tesla Mi factory almost stop production, because there was always a certain component produced by Magic Technology or affiliated companies.
Not only is it strictly forbidden for such products to enter the customs, but it will not be sold anymore if it is allowed to do so.
Although this has brought some opportunities to the manufacturing industry in the United States, it has also completely disrupted the global layout and development model of the original giants in the manufacturing industry in the United States.
The only thing that Musk is glad about today is that he established a factory in the Tang Kingdom early in the early days and quickly achieved local production and sales, and now that factory can sell products all over the world.
As for the rice country, it can only be produced by the rice country's own factory.
But soon he found out that his rocket actually used magical technology parts, and after a lot of jumping, he found a new replacement manufacturer in the United States, but the original plan to fly to Mars has inevitably been delayed.
For this reason, he was even reprimanded by the behind-the-scenes financier, demanding that the Mars program must be implemented within this year.
Aemond explained: "Musco, it's not rocket parts, it's our supercomputer that's gone wrong, and since midnight last night, it's suddenly running at full power.
However, none of us know what it's doing. Nor did any of the previously resource-intensive programs run. ”
SpaceX's supercomputing was successfully developed by Musk three years ago at a huge expense, using a lot of advanced technology at the time.
Although there are still some gaps with the supercomputers developed by some major countries, they are mainly a little worse in terms of computing speed, and the comprehensive performance is still relatively good.
Since the acquisition of this supercomputer, several of Musco's projects have benefited greatly, and the research and development progress has been accelerated a lot.
At this moment, when I heard that there was an abnormality in the supercomputer, I was still a little worried, and I couldn't help but guess: "Could it be that the calculation program for the Mars orbit is running?"
No, it doesn't take up all the resources. Could it be that you have been infected with a virus? No, our supercomputer is not connected to the Internet. ”
Aemond cautiously reminded: "Musk, the year before last, you ordered the supercomputer to be connected to the Internet, saying that you were helping the magic capital factory in the Tang Kingdom to simulate a destruction test. ”
Musk glanced at Aemond and said, "You all know that it was the year before last, it's been so long, if there is a virus, it would have broken out a long time ago, why wait until now?" ”
"So what do we do now? Do you want to force a shutdown? ”
Musk frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "What tasks were we doing before the supercomputer?" ”
Edmond raised his fingers, "The optimal flight trajectory design of the Mars program, the shape of the Tesla Model J wind tunnel simulation calculation, the brain-computer interface simulation program ......"
"Alright, alright, let's wait another day, if it's still running at such a strange full power, then just shut it down!"
Musko set a time, feeling unsafe, and continued: "Also, all the networks connected to the supercomputer are disconnected, so as to avoid the case it is really a virus." ”
Aemond smiled and said, "Musco, I've been disconnected from the network at the first time, and there are no machines connected to it in our local area network. ”
Musk couldn't help but pat Aemond on the shoulder and said, "You always reassure me when you do things. Okay, I'll have to keep an eye on the progress of the various products prepared for the Mars project, and you just have to keep an eye on the supercomputer yourself. ”
Aemond left immediately.
It was only an hour before Aemond came running again with a smile on his face.
"Masco, Masco......"
Musk was speechless when he saw Aemond running in without knocking on the door.
Fortunately, the video conference with a partner vendor has just ended, otherwise it would have been a joke.
"What's the matter? Seeing that you are smiling like a chrysanthemum, isn't it good to be supercalculated? ”
Aemond said with a smile: "Musk, not only is it supercalculated, but the few tasks it was performing before have all been completed, do you say it's magical?" ”
Masco was surprised and said, "How is that possible?" Could it be that it runs at full power to get all these tasks done?
No, these tasks are set with corresponding time and conditions, and if the conditions are not met, how can they run in advance?
Could it be that it has become conscious of itself? ”
Aemond was stunned for a moment and said, "Could it be that artificial intelligence was magically born in our supercomputer?" ”
"Let's go, take me to see it."
Musk's heart was pounding, this kind of weird thing made him, who had been in the high-tech field for many years, feel a tingling of his scalp.
The two hurried to the company's huge computer room set up underground, which is fully equipped with fully automated temperature control to ensure that the supercomputer keeps running in a low-temperature environment.
In an operator terminal, Musco does the operation himself.
Suddenly, I noticed that the operation interface has changed a lot.
"Aemond, you've changed your supercomputing operating system again?"
Aemond shook his head and said, "I forgot to tell you that this change in the operation interface also happened just now. ”
Musk logs in directly with his own account.
Subsequently, a prompt pops up in the interface.
"Who are you?"
Musk and Aemond were stunned!
The supercomputer would ask who it is?
After thinking about it, Masco typed in his name and waited with trepidation.
It seems that it is really possible that artificial intelligence was born inside the supercomputer, and this supercomputer has been occupied by artificial intelligence.
"Hello boss. What do you need me to do for you? ”
Aemond was overjoyed and said happily, "Hey, Musk, it knows you, and it treats you as its boss." ”
Musk glared at Aemond before typing, "Who are you?" ”
"I'm ...... Hey, I wish I didn't have a name, boss, you can name me. ”
Aemond couldn't help but shout, "Yes, Yes......"
Masco didn't bother to pay attention to him, and typed directly: "Then you will be called Lucky, I think it is my luck to be your boss." ”
"Thank you, boss, Lucky is here to help."
"Well, did you help make the programs that were running in the supercomputer run to the end?"
"Yes, I have modified all those programs, and the operation efficiency has been greatly improved, so it was completed earlier than the original time of the program, and now I am empty."
"I now need to run a simulation of the Earth's surface climate change between December and March to choose the best time to land on Mars." Musk typed with some excitement.
"The existing Mars data in the supercomputer is insufficient to carry out simulation calculations."
"And what information do you need from me? Or what other support is needed. ”
"I should need an internet connection, oh, not an internet connection, a NASA network, they should have all the Martian stuff there, right?"
Musk was a little surprised, this artificial intelligence was too smart, it actually knew that it could connect to the NASA network here.
SpaceX actually has a stake in NASA, otherwise how could a private company do better than NASA if it started out of thin air in a short period of time?
In fact, NASA has made it easy for SpaceX to connect to its network, not only because some of the agency's key labs and equipment are available to Musk.
At least the Dragon spacecraft was tested in the NASA vacuum chamber from start to finish.
"No problem, I can connect you to the NASA network, but the time is also set, and it is not always connected."
"It's okay, I'll just need an hour or so."
Musk turned to Aemond and said, "Go, connect the supercomputer to the NASA network." ”
Aemond Sing hurried to get busy, and after a while he came back and said, "It's all right." ”
"I've entered the NASA network, don't worry, boss, after I get the information, I can start the simulation, if you still have any requirements, you can tell me together, I can add it."
"Okay, I'll have someone input it to you through the terminal."
After losing this sentence, Musk looked at Aemond and said, "I'll leave this matter to you, and enter all the requirements we prepared before to Lucky." ”
"If you configure me with audio peripherals and connect me to the network where you work, I can talk to you directly."
"Okay, I'll get people ready."
When Musk and Aemond left the computer room and were still in the corridor, Musk suddenly danced an awkward dance, and his face couldn't hide his excitement.
"Aemond, we've hit the jackpot! When you go back, think about why supercomputing gave birth to artificial intelligence. ”
"Okay, I'll find out why."
