Chapter VI Artificial Intelligence Plan

Under Wang Miao's guidance, Chen Xi found a company that had been closed for many years.

This is Shen Yufei's company, after her death, the company was passed on as an inheritance, according to the law to her husband - Wei Cheng, Wei Cheng did not take care of the company's brain, so he simply drove away all the employees, leaving only a few computers to do calculations, and he didn't go back to his home, eating, drinking, and sleeping in the company.

Coming to the back door of the company, Zhou Ya got out of the car first, and a bunch of black-clothed people holding shields ran out of the front and rear convoys, and they used their bodies to establish a safe passage between the bulletproof car and the building.

Chen Xi glanced at the resolute cheeks of the soldiers with his spare eyes, and secretly swore in his heart: I will never live up to the expectations of those facing the wall, and I will definitely save mankind from the root.

After searching for a long time, everyone found Wei Cheng sleeping soundly in a large conference room full of scratch paper, and Zhou Ya asked Chen Xi in a low voice: "Do you need to wake him up?" ”

Chen Xi thought for a while, with an evil smile on his face, he waved his hand and gave an order to the soldiers behind him: "Take it away, take away the scratch paper on the wall on the ground, as well as computers, hard disks, CDs, etc., these are all treasures to him." ”

Wei Cheng, who was so drunk, didn't realize that he had been kidnapped, and still fell asleep.

After that, Chen Xi visited some scholars and sincerely invited them to join Sugon Technology.

After visiting the national soldier who won the medal of two bombs, the country can no longer hold back, you can't just catch your own family, so Zhou Ya conveyed the chief's words, "Mr. Chen Xi, the country hopes that you will go around other countries, such as the beautiful country, their computer technology and lithography machine technology are very developed, far ahead of the world, which is conducive to your artificial intelligence plan." ”

Chen Xi got into the car and replied, "No problem, I'm just going to dig up a team engaged in distributed computing." ”

At this time, Wei Cheng, who was thrown in the back seat, woke up.

Zhou Ya, who was driving, looked through the rearview mirror, handed over a vomit bag, and said, "You are not suitable for drinking." ”

Wei Cheng retched and asked, "Who are you?" Why kidnap me. ”

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Have you ever heard of a wall-facing person? ”

Of course Wei Cheng had heard of such a big thing as the face wall plan, and he nodded again and again: "Oh, I know, big liar, you are the youngest of the liars, Chen Xi?" ”

Chen Xi nodded at first, then shook his head.

"I'm a wall-facer, but I'm not a liar, I don't have the ability to deceive."

Wei Cheng wiped his mouth with his sleeve, "I have a bit of a talent for mathematics, so what do you want me to calculate?" ”

He knew the reason why the other party was looking for him, and he also knew that he couldn't refuse, because the rights of the person facing the wall were too great.

Chen Xi pondered for a moment and explained: "I hope to use computers to simulate the human brain and the intelligence of the human brain to create a robot with the ability to think and learn, that is, a real artificial intelligence life." ”

"So, I need many, many, all sorts of evolutionary algorithms."

Wei Cheng thought for a long time, shook his head and said: "There is no hope, the ideological ability of intelligent life forms and the bottom layer of wisdom involve the quantum realm, and exploring the quantum realm will definitely hit the inverted wall of Zhizi." ”

"Strong artificial intelligence is only the ultimate goal, what I want now is only weak artificial intelligence that is enough to replace human labor in low-end production activities, I hope that the majority of human beings can be freed from heavy and low-level labor, and devote themselves to more advanced labor production or their own hobbies and ideals."

Chen Xi's eyes were full of longing, as if he longed for the era of his dreams to come to the world.

Wei Cheng asked again: "Why simulate the human brain, it is easier to write a complex program." ”

The longing in Chen Xi's eyes disappeared, leaving only a cold gaze like a dark and deep pool, and he said casually: "Naturally, because the artificial intelligence created by writing programs is not intelligent enough, they cannot perfectly replace manual labor in a complex and changeable working environment. ”

"Moreover, artificial intelligence is similar to artificial retardation now, and it may be similar in the future, we need to take a new path: use a supercomputer to simulate a brain, and let the computer use the human brain to think, how to do a good job."

Wei Cheng pointed out a problem: "Let the computer simulate the human brain, with more than 10 billion neurons, even the supercomputer of the beautiful country cannot do it." ”

Chen Xi nodded: "I have also considered it, so I have two plans, one is to hibernate and wait for a breakthrough in computer technology, and the other is to pile up the amount of computing power I need with countless chips." ”

"So, I'm going to go to the beautiful country and SETI@home Project, a scientific experiment to search for extraterrestrial civilizations using globally networked computers, founded by David P. Anderson of the University of California, Berkeley."

Lin Yun used this website to calculate a theoretical model of ball lightning, which was shut down in '05.

"The data processed by this project in six years is so much that the world's most advanced supercomputers have to run without sleep for hundreds of years, in fact, 1,000 laptops connected to a high-speed LAN and running SETI@home screensavers at the same time have the potential to break into the world's top 500 supercomputers."

"There's a lot of potential in distributed computing."

Chen Xi chattered about his plan.

"I want to build a chip that simulates the activity of a single neuron, fit the chip into hundreds of billions of electronic devices, and create a virtual human brain on the Internet."

"The technical challenges I have now are the mobile communication network technology (5G or higher) that transmits more, faster, and shorter latency, and is more stable, as well as the algorithm and chip architecture that simulate the movement of neurons in the human brain."

"Of course, there is energy, and people don't want to make more electricity bills for their electronic devices, so the premise of this plan is a breakthrough in nuclear fusion technology."

This time will not be too long, and Dr. Ding Yi will carry out controlled nuclear fusion in 8 or 9 years, that is, between 12~13 years of the crisis era, so that mankind can enter the era of unlimited energy.

After listening to Chen Xi's tirade, Wei Cheng became interested in participating, "Okay, I'll help you, I need a lot of brain science materials." ”

"There's no hurry, my colleague Bill Hines is working on an analysis camera that takes pictures of the brain, and when the analysis camera was born, the human brain, or even the human mind, there was no secret at all, haha, this guy is actually helping the Three-Body Man break down the wall of human thought!"

Chen Xi looked up to the sky and laughed, mocking Hines.

Then, he said to Zhou Ya solemnly: "What I said just now must be kept secret, otherwise Hines's wall-facing plan is very likely to go bankrupt." ”
