655 Bionic chip

"In fact, when it comes to current computer chips, it is obviously not enough to use the current chips to complete the construction of the metaverse."

"Whether it is in terms of chip computing efficiency or signal transmission speed, it is difficult for the current chip to be qualified for this job."

"So if we want to build a real metaverse, we have to use faster and stronger chips."

"And this chip is a bionic chip!"

Stephen gave Pan Dechuang and Yang Yinuan his ideas.

The two of them listened very carefully, just like elementary school students.

"Now the chips on the Blue Star are mainly silicon-based chips, and the principle is very clear to everyone."

"It is to carve out grooves on the silicon wafer by etching, and then lay transistors into it."

"The process is cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the yield rate is very low."

"And the chips made, although the performance is somewhat okay, the power consumption and heat dissipation are quite amazing."

If someone else said this, it is estimated that Yang Yi was so warm that he spat on his face, and the toad was angry, and his tone was not small.

But if Stephen said so, then Yang Yinuan could only smile and bow down, because people really have such confidence.

Although he is only a clone from Falken, the problem is that Falken has developed into the era of interstellar civilization.

People's computer technology has been ahead of Blue Star for thousands of years.

Although he hadn't told Yang Yinuan what kind of computer they were using, Yang Yinuan had also guessed that he must be more than a few orders of magnitude ahead of Blue Star.

"In recent years, I have seen that some companies on Bluestar are also trying to develop new chips, and one of the good attempts is the bionic chip."

"That is, a chip that mimics the human brain mode!"

Stephen talked about this kind of chip, Yang Yinuan was stunned again, he is not a computer celebrity, and he knows very little about this cutting-edge science.

However, Pan Dechuang seemed to be familiar with these things, and did not express any surprise at Stephen's statement.

"Haha, I've heard of this kind of chip you said, aren't there a few of them in China?"

"What kind of Cretaceous is that, isn't it just for artificial intelligence chips?"

"And the A-series chip of Tangerine, isn't it also known as a bionic chip?"

Stephen listened to Pan Dechuang's words and shook his head with a smile.

"What you said is far worse than the real bionic chip, at least in terms of working principle, it is not half a star."

"Huh? This ......"

Pande's face was also full of embarrassment when he heard Stephen say this.

It turns out that the bionic chip in his cognition is very different from the bionic chip in other people's cognition.

"The human brain is the most complex computing machine on the planet, think about it, how does it work?"

"There are 86 billion ganglia in the brain, and humans rely on such a supercomputer to manage the body and process all kinds of complex information."

"You must know that such a complex precision instrument, after a day of operation, the power consumption is amazingly small, which is only equivalent to a dozen watts of light bulbs!"

"If you try to switch to a computer with a silicon chip, let the computer process the information that humans receive and process in a day, and you see how many kilowatt-hours of electricity are consumed in a day?"

"Therefore, the human brain is the real supercomputer. And the chip we want to make this time is a chip that truly imitates the operation mode of the human brain. ”

"The operating mechanism of this real bionic chip is the spiking neural network, and the A-series chips of the orange you just mentioned, as well as the chips produced in the Cretaceous period, their chips are actually called artificial neural network chips."

"How they work, and how quickly they can process information, are very different."

Stephen explained to the two of them that Yang Yinuan heard it in a fog and didn't particularly understand.

But Pan Dechuang felt as if he understood a little, but he didn't seem to understand too much.

But the more Stephen talked, the more excited he became, because he felt like he could finally learn something new.

"In fact, the working mode of spiking neural network is also very simple, that is, using a superconducting single-photon detector, plus Josephson's section, you can complete the imitation and construction of a simple spiking neural network."

"In fact, now on the Blue Star, there are already some giants in the research of important matters, and a few years ago, the International Business Machines Corporation developed a bionic chip."

"They integrated a million neurons, 256 synapses on a postage stamp-sized chip."

"With 5.4 billion transistors, it can perform 46 gigabit synaptic operations per second while consuming only 70 milliwatts!"

"And last year, Intel also released a human-like brain chip with millions of neurons."

"However, they did not disclose the relevant performance of this chip."

"Now many international giants are in this frontier field, quietly layout and explore."

"And this million-neuron-level chip is only equivalent to the brain level of bees and cockroaches."

"If we want to reach the level of our human brain, we need at least tens of billions of neurons......

"And now many large companies are constrained by relevant technology, or in terms of design, there is a lack of them."

"But this kind of design is not a difficult thing for us......"

Stephen said it lightly, but Pan Dechuang was really excited to hear it!

At this time, I heard Stephen say that he had mastered the design technology of designing a humanoid brain chip.

Pan Dechuang was even more excited when he heard this, and almost knelt down for the big guy.

You must know that although he is the CEO of the company, he is very clear about his position in the company.

In fact, he is the puppet in front of Stephen and Yang Yinuan.

There are only two real cores of this company, one is Yang Yinuan from the management side, and the other is Stephen from the technology side.

And he couldn't understand why Stephen had an almost paranoid blind obedience to Yang Yinuan.

Even if Yang Yinuan doesn't understand anything......

But this is not his concern, what he is most concerned about as a tech nerd is how he can learn more and more useful things from Stephen, a tech maniac.

For example, the design of this bionic chip that this guy is talking about......

It's exciting to think about!

If this kind of chip can really be developed, then they will directly create an era?

Think about it, why can't the metaverse develop now, the constraints of hardware are the key.

If they can really make this kind of chip, then they will be equivalent to creating a new IT world!

At that time, the current semiconductor world dominated by the Stars and Stripes will be overturned, overthrown and rebuilt by them!

The hardware will no longer depend on their chips, and the software will no longer depend on their systems!
