The first month of school always flies quickly, and it is almost March in a flash.

The school couldn't wait to directly issue three certificates to Ye Ming, and then hired him as a professor with another letter of appointment.

This is ...... for Ye Ming A good thing, of course.

First of all, he can be recommended as an academician – a professor and equivalent are prerequisites for becoming an academician. As for other achievements, nationality or something......

Ye Ming didn't even have a passport, just an ID card and a household registration book, which was simply a red seedling that was about to shine.

Secondly, he can also participate in the future science prize, which is known as the domestic "Nobel Prize", although the money is only 1 million US dollars, which looks a little drizzle compared to other current "net worth", but net worth and cash are two different things......

Jizhi Technology is now in the "rising period", and Ye Ming is embarrassed to make money in his pocket, besides, it seems that it is useless for him to take money. It's better to receive an award, and you can make your mother happy and happy, and continue to go to Versailles on WeChat.

In the end, everyone can call him Professor Ye.

Although Ye Ming was a little embarrassed, it was better to listen to it than to call Mr. Ye.

However, when he became a professor, Ye Ming did not fulfill his duties as a professor.

After all, he has been visibly busy in the past two years.

For example, at the end of March, Jizhi Technology will hold a spring conference again.

……

Qi and Mo sat on the sofa in Ye Ming's office, their eyes full of smiles: "What is the internal price of Aita?" ”

Next to her, sat a robot covered in blue and white paint.

The shell of the robot can't see the material, but it can be clearly seen that it is made of piano lacquer, and the whole body is translucent.

The joint joints are made of special materials that allow it to move freely, protect the joints well, and are easy to disassemble.

Both of its hands are constructed, but the proportions of the two hands appear to be slightly larger than the slender and slim body.

It's just a pair of working hands.

In addition, its head is oval-shaped, and it does not have unnecessary facial features such as a nose and mouth that could cause the "uncanny valley effect", nor does it use a large screen design that uses its face as a display, but a mobile phone-sized screen is installed in the eyes.

As for the most important binocular camera, it has an under-display design.

Thanks to its clever design, its head can be rotated 180 degrees, so that it can easily swap the "face" and "back of the head", making it easy to use a projector mounted on the back of the head.

Well...... However, at the position of the two ears, two openings were designed for it, one for sound and one for heat dissipation.

Overall, its design is very much in line with people's imagination of housekeeping robots.

Of course, if you have to design, it can be designed to be better, more perfect, more realistic, and even closer to the human hand......

But in order to account for some unnecessary "troubles", the robot design team abandoned these exciting ideas.

"Internal price?" Ye Ming scratched his head: "I don't know, you have to ask Sister Qu Jing." ”

"Sister Jing said to ask you."

“…… Shall I send one to you? ”

"......" Qi and Mo were speechless for a while: "Boss, I still have some savings." ”

Ye Ming was happy.

Although Paint & Ink has not yet graduated, it has long become a core member of the AI department of Jizhi Technology. Let's put it this way, before He Mo came, she knew Aita best.

When there was no money before, the salary was quite high, and now needless to say, the income of paint and ink is calculated according to the annual salary.

"How much is the first batch of mass production at the moment?"

"There are about 3,000 units, and according to market research, I don't have to worry about selling them...... Well...... Of course, it still depends on your performance at the press conference. Qi and Mo said and blinked: "Come on, Professor Ye." ”

Ye Ming coughed.

Urushi and Mohaha laughed: "It feels very smooth." ”

"Don't, spare me."

"Invite me to dinner, then?"

"No problem - let Aita cook?"

"Good!"

Qi and Mo turned their heads to look at the side: "Aita." ”

"I'm here."

Two voices rang out at the same time.

In addition to her, the prototype that had been charging while sitting opposite also replied.

Ye Ming laughed.

"It's over, it's mentally retarded."

……

Last day of March.

Palo Alto, CA.

Tesla Building, Robotics Experiment Center.

At 9 a.m., all the staff gathered in the conference room.

As the boss sat down with a serious face, the display on the wall of the conference room was turned on.

Immediately after, the assistant clicked on YouTube's homepage, the hot list, and then selected the first video.

"Jizhi Technology Spring Conference"

The video was uploaded in just four hours, has been viewed more than a million times, and is currently viewed online by more than 100,000 people.

"I don't know if you've watched the live broadcast, but I still hope you can watch the replay."

Musk looked at everyone and frowned deeply: "This is our opponent." ”

With his voice, the video was clicked.

In the applause, Ye Ming slowly walked to the front desk.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Ye Ming's voice sounded: "Since we are a start-up company with little experience, we have done a very bad job of keeping some products confidential. So much so that on the day we announced the press conference, some people had already guessed what product we were going to release. ”

There was a burst of laughter from the audience.

Musk sighed softly.

Of course I guessed it.

He ran around with the robot with such fanfare that he even dared to let the robot physically drive......

If you can't guess that today is going to release the robot butler, then you will simply hit the wall and die.

Just look at Apple how important the secrecy of an unreleased product is to a tech company.

And Jizhi Technology is good, it seems that it doesn't know what secrecy is......

However, Musk does not believe that this is the importance of Jizhi Technology not knowing the secrets of the product.

The scariest part is here – they know, but they don't care.

On the screen, Ye Ming's voice continued.

"We have three announcements today."

"The first one is that we have jointly launched a prosthetic eye solution to help blind patients recover their vision with the Brain Science Center of the Provincial Jiaotong University Medical College."

With Ye Ming's voice, an "eyeball" appeared on the screen behind him.

"This is a feat we have accomplished with a digitally integrated chip that will completely address blindness from all causes, while also allowing patients to obtain the highest level of immersion in holographic simulations with their prosthetic eyes!"

"It can be said that it brings patients into the metaverse in one step......"

Musk frowned: "Jump over." ”

The assistant glanced at Musk and dragged the progress bar.

On the screen, a slender robot with a light blue and white paint slowly appeared in the applause of the mountain and a tsunami.

Ranwen

Everyone in the conference room fell silent.

Even if it was the second time, or even the third time they saw this scene, they still couldn't suppress the shock in their hearts.

This seems to be a few simple steps, but it is the first step for strong AI intelligent robots to officially step into human society.

It is also the first step in a new world.

One big step.
