Chapter 46: The best thing to do is to build it before the enemy
The 17th Bureau of Commerce Branch Office.
"Team He, I really can't figure it out, is the superior too serious about this kid?" Chen Mo couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time, so he couldn't help but ask.
"The information you have access to is relatively limited, and it's not surprising that you don't understand it, and your superiors have their own considerations." He Su said that in this office, there was also a thin man with glasses from the Fourteenth Bureau.
His name is Zhou Huang, and when he heard Chen Mo's casual complaint, he said:
"Cyberspace is a new concept battlefield of advanced warfare in the future, and the exoskeleton system of Tianqing Company, we have convened the top computer engineers in China to try to crack it, so far helpless, and through hardware analysis, we found that the memory of the whole system does not exceed 10Mb, and now any mobile phone APP is not 40~70Mb? This is a complete set of control assistance systems. ”
"And there is no need for invasive BCI brain-computer interface for deep linking to successfully decode brain waves, I originally thought that BCI technology is the University of California, North American Chinese scientist Edward-Chang and his team are leading the world in an all-round way, but compared with the technology now exposed by Tianqing, the latter is at least three generations ahead of the American team."
Chen Mo was dumbfounded, although he knew a little about network technology, he was not a top professional in this area, so he smiled and did not respond.
Chinese scientist Edward-Chang and his team successfully decoded brain waves last year and were able to synthesize speech directly from the brain through artificial intelligence, and the team created a BCI brain-computer interface that is close to restoring the function of speech, through which the computer can "read" their intentions directly from the brain of a paralyzed patient, and can read 150 words a minute, which is close to the level of a normal person.
In other words, humans can now read the brain's thoughts directly through a computer that links to the human brain through the BCI brain-computer interface, without using words.
At the time, when the British journal Nature announced the news, the world was stunned and the world fell silent, which can be described as a landmark technological breakthrough that will revolutionize the way humans interact with machines, and enough to change the structure of humanity and society in the near future.
In the thick clouds, thunder is brewing and generating, and in the silence, a storm is coming!
Only God knows, but for Huaguo, this is not good news.
Zhou Huang looked at Chen Mo and said with an extremely serious expression:
"Have you seen The Matrix? The technology developed by Edward-Chang and his team is similar to the science fiction movie "The Matrix" 20 years ago, and of course it is not as exaggerated as in "The Matrix", but it is enough to give us a glimpse of the future. ”
The main character in the film, Neo, has an opening in the back of his neck and inserts a super needle, through which he can connect his brain to the computer. Through this brain-computer interface, Neo wants to learn any knowledge and skills, which is simply easy and easy to obtain. ”
"For example, Neo wants to learn Chinese kung fu in order to fight Captain Morpheus, and if he learns Chinese kung fu in the real world, it is estimated that he will not be able to learn it in a few years. However, through the brain-computer interface, Neo downloaded the information into his own brain, and quickly learned Huaguo Kung Fu, which can be called pulling onions on dry land, and playing Captain Morpheus against his opponent. ”
"Many people may think that the brain-computer connection technology in "The Matrix" is just an unattainable science fiction myth. In fact, this technology is a major technology that many scientists are working on today, but the United States is far ahead of the world, and the results achieved by Edward-Chang and his team since last year have been demonstrated...... Everything we say imaginary is becoming a reality and is no longer out of reach. ”
"Tianqing's exoskeleton is also by decoding brain waves, reading the intention in the brain of the exoskeleton carrier, but he did not synthesize speech like the Chinese scientist Edward-Chang, but human-computer synchronization, although I don't know how he did it, but I firmly believe that the principle is the same, then it shows that the information read by this exoskeleton system is far more than 150 words in a minute, and even more than ten of its magnitude."
Chen Mo, who was speechless, couldn't help but nod slowly, and Zhou Huang muttered in a deep voice: "From today on, this is no longer science fiction, no longer reading comprehension, no longer news headlines, no longer phantoms in movies and weak souls in computers, but real fate!" ”
"In the history of mankind, every major technological revolution will trigger an impact on human beings and even the entire society, which is a tsunami full of uncertainty."
"The invention of iron tools and the emergence of traditional agricultural societies triggered a war in the age of cold weapons, which was fought from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Han Dynasty in our country; The invention of electricity and the emergence of industrial society triggered two world wars that stained the entire first half of the twentieth century with blood. ”
"Now, with the advancement of artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, robotics, gene editing and other technologies, while bringing scientific and technological benefits, it will also trigger a new storm of social change."
I don't know why, Chen Mo felt a little creepy when he saw Zhou Huang with a deep face at the moment, the latter stared at him again, and said slowly: "If you say that the previous technological progress only made the rich richer and the poor poorer; At this juncture, then, it may make the rich smarter, more knowledgeable, healthier, and the poor weaker, and eventually ...... Super human. ”
"Yes, humanity has stood at such a historical juncture of life and death choices. In the face of a technological storm, if China does not take precautions, pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and allow Europeans and Americans to take the lead all the way, the future will be unpredictable, and the humiliation of a century may be repeated again. Think about such a scene: it is very likely that in the near future, we Chinese people are the original human beings, and in front of the super-human Americans, we may be as powerless and fragile as insects facing humans, and when you flush a bug into the sewer, can you have a trace of waves in your heart? ”
Chen Mo fell silent, and after a moment, He Suyan said succinctly: "The best way to prevent these things from happening is to create them before the enemy. This is not something that you and I can achieve, but we need a genius like Gu Cheng, every genius, no matter what field he is talented, is a priceless treasure of the country, and the country is willing to pour resources into them, even waste resources. ”
Chen Mo, who hadn't answered for a long time, suddenly looked at Zhou Huang: "You seem to have forgotten something, insects have never been conquered." ”
Hearing his seemingly Jedi counterattack, Zhou Huang grinned and replied in a rather sarcastic tone: "So are you willing to become a bug and live like a bug?" ”
Chen Mo: "......"
He Su immediately stopped Chen Mo, who was about to speak, and said: "Okay, don't argue, Zhou Huang is a master of technical investigation technology, and I specially asked for someone from the 14th Bureau." At the end of yesterday's meeting, the attention of the superiors to Gu Cheng and his Tianqing Technology has been raised by three levels. ”
The entire team of six or seven people in this office, including Chen Mo, was surprised, and He Su added: "So, the next task is to protect Gu Cheng's personal safety, including his family, especially his sister Mengna. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and then nodded in unison and said, "Understood!" ”
To what extent Gu Cheng's talent will develop in the future, no one can give an upper limit estimate of his future achievements, but the talent shown so far is enough to surprise people, the recent incident of a large number of servers and personal computers being maliciously occupied by people in the Yangtze River Delta, although the Ministry of State Security cannot produce effective evidence to prove that it is Gu Chenggang, but He Su, who is in charge of this matter, firmly believes that he did it.
In this incident, the State Telecom announced that it was a normal network fluctuation, but no one paid too much attention to it.
It was really a surprise in the sense that he did it.
Such a genius will naturally not restrain him, let alone push him to the opposite side, especially in the context of the rapid soaring technology in North America on the other side of the Pacific, China needs more geniuses to catch up and even surpass.
That's right, the best way to prevent something from happening is to build it before the enemy, and it depends on super geniuses like Gu Cheng.
