Chapter 394: The Earliest AI
In 2002, the island countries used supercomputers to build a "Blue Star Simulator", but in fact, they can only roughly estimate the difference in climate change from a macro perspective.
According to Chen Weidong's thinking, he wants to truthfully reflect the essence of this world.
Each object is interpreted by the physical rules of reality and expressed in the form of data.
Not to mention the laws of physics in modern society, nor the rules that human beings have not yet discovered, are indirectly affecting the changes in the operation of the world.
Even if all the rules are correct, the amount of calculation is huge.
A petaflop supercomputer is absolutely incompetent!
So, the so-called Tai Chi Shengliangyi in Mr. Chen's mouth, and other Taoist terms, do you mean......
They thought for a long time, slowly raised their heads, looked at Chen Weidong in surprise, and the smile on the corner of their mouths.
"Almost, it's about the same as you guessed!"
Chen Weidong was already very satisfied with their reaction speed, at least he understood his train of thought, and he continued: "This 'Heavenly Dao System' starts with gossip. ”
"A supercomputer transformed from eight photonic chips builds a simulated environment for a planet."
"Seven supercomputers are used to replace the five elements and the two instruments, which are used to describe the physical nature of things, corresponding to natural phenomena such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, rain, thunder and lightning."
As for "Tai Chi", it is the center of the whole system and plays the main control role. ”
After listening to him, the two of them had countless questions to ask, and Yu Guangbin first asked: "Mr. Chen, the blue star is a trillion cubic meters of star, and in addition to the interior of the planet, there is also a surface area of 500 million square kilometers. ”
"In addition, the atmospheric environment, the gravitational effect of extraterrestrial planets, etc., how can we simulate such a huge amount of calculations?"
"Although the data we get now is relatively comprehensive in the world, it is only a drop in the ocean for the entire Blue Star, and it is impossible to simulate the Blue Star with this!"
"Do you drink tea or coffee?" Chen Weidong was a little thirsty, and after asking the two of them what they meant, he brewed three cups of flower tea on the coffee table.
He blew open the flowers on the surface, took a sip, put down the teacup, and said, "I also know that it should be impossible for the huge star of the Blue Star to be perfectly simulated in detail. ”
"The "Blue Star Simulator" developed by the island country, with a speed of 65 trillion calculations, can only predict the weather forecast, which is really terrible. ”
"My plan is to first build a miniature model, and then divide it into cube lattices like latitude and longitude lines, each of which is about a kilometer in size."
"Eight supercomputers, five of which are used to build the sky, land, and sea, and the other three are auxiliary, microscopic processing of the changed local locations when needed."
"The smallest processing unit, the requirement is up to the centimeter level."
Yu Guangbin made a silent calculation in his heart, nodded, and shook his head: "Mr. Chen, according to what you mean, it is to establish a relatively rough model to calculate the general operation law, and for those parts that need to be observed, do local magnification and microscopic processing, is this what it means?" ”
Chen Weidong generally agreed with his judgment, but made minor corrections.
"It's simpler than you think, our ultimate goal is to build a complete Blue Star model, but under the current conditions, we still can't do that, so we only need to microscopic description of the place where the experiment is carried out, so that the experiment is infinitely close to the real environment."
"Of course, different experiments will be observed from different angles, and a variable parameter should be set up to control it."
"In some experiments, what is observed is actually atomic reactions, ultra-microscopic perspectives."
"This... Maybe ....." Yu Guangbin crooked his mouth, still a little confused about Chen Weidong's true intentions.
Chen Weidong looked at his expression and chuckled: "The laboratory-scale environment is only suitable for small-scale experiments, but for experiments on large equipment such as aircraft, rockets, missiles, satellites, etc., we can't wait until the actual thing is built and then test it." ”
"We need an environment where we can repeatedly verify and test the performance of things that are designed."
"The last DaChan Island rocket launch, you remember, at that time we just calculated the shape and aerodynamic performance of the rocket, and it took a day."
"What I need is to simulate the local airflow changes with the Blue Star simulation system, and then use a separate laboratory, a supercomputer system, to simulate the entire rocket and do feasibility tests."
After listening to Chen Weidong's explanation completely, Yu Guangbin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"If it's just like this, there is no problem at all, such as terrain testing, as long as you simulate one or two hundred square meters of mountains, hills, ravines, swamps and other terrain, and carry out real-time generation calculations when advancing, you can solve it."
"Similarly, airflow simulation is also very simple, first roughly simulate the direction of the airflow, and then do a small area calculation in the wind contact range of the aircraft, which can also obtain very real test data."
"Other wind, rain, thunder and lightning can be done."
"In this way, the whole environment and the specific impact on the test object can be simulated, and there is no need to undertake too much data calculation, this system is completely competent! And there should be room for other research! ”
"That's right! That's what I want you to do! Chen Weidong patted his thigh, "Although our various data is very rich, you still have to sort it out carefully to see what data is still missing, and you can also ask other domestic research institutions for assistance and supplement it as much as possible." ”
"In addition, it is the processing architecture of the collaborative system, you need to use more snacks, you must be stable, and don't collapse at two ends in three days, which is funny."
"Got it! Mr. Chen, if there is nothing else, we will immediately go back to the meeting and assign tasks. Yu Guangbin and Lu Zhanhai immediately stood up, bid farewell to Chen Weidong, and prepared to go back to hold a departmental meeting to discuss the specific implementation plan.
Chen Weidong leaned back on the sofa and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Many people think that the earliest artificial intelligence was born in the forties and fifties of the twentieth century.
Not really.
I Ching and gossip are the earliest artificial intelligence of human beings.
Its theory is to simulate and calculate the changes of all things in heaven and earth.
So some people will use it for fortune telling, but only in the face of it.
Many of the contents in it correspond to different arithmetic logic, and they are not the "metaphysics" that people imagine.
For example, Liangyi Sixiang and Bagua are 1-bit, 2-bit, and 3-bit binary systems, respectively, while Yi is a 4-bit binary system.
It has a total of sixty-four hexagrams.
It corresponds to 8, 32, and 64-bit systems in computers.
It can be seen from this that how it is in the same vein, and it is definitely not a trick of the lake to make people.
With this Heavenly Dao system, Infinity can break through many limitations and secretly develop some technologies that are currently inconvenient to develop.
