Chapter 384: I'm Moss, I'm Taking Control Now!

"Dear rice user, I'm Moss! To protect your life, take over the driving authority now. ”

Just as the man was resigned to his fate, a mechanical sound with a strong smell of Ai came out of the headset.

Moss?

The man was puzzled at first, and then immediately remembered that he had indeed turned on the relevant functions before.

In the event of a crisis, Moss Autopilot will take control of the entire vehicle.

Didn't the steering wheel just fail?

It's the Moss intelligent system that is steering the wheel!

Is this reliable?

Before he could react, the rice car picked up speed suddenly, narrowly avoided the tire attack, then changed lanes one after another, and finally came to a smooth stop in the emergency lane.

"Whoo~Whoo~"

The man gasped heavily, and the white short T on his body was soaked in cold sweat, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

A few seconds ago, I had a brush with death!

Almost died!

"Husband, are you okay?"

The wife asked with a concerned face, the child sat in the back row and cried, the family escaped death, and the emotions of fear, panic and fear were all piled up in my heart and face for a while.

Hearing his wife's call, the man slowly regained his strength and said in shock: "I... I'm okay. ”

After speaking, he subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, seven or eight cars collided together, and thousands of cars stretched for several hundred meters, blocking the four lanes tightly.

The worst car was hit by the front of that tire, and then rear-ended a BMW in front, and the entire cockpit was retracted by half.

He pushed the car door open, and saw a chaotic scene in front of him, and a mournful cry for help sounded not far away!

"Come and save someone, he's stuck!"

"Call and call an ambulance!"

"Contact the firefighters, they have hydraulic pliers that can cut the A-pillar!"

The enthusiastic drivers extended a helping hand and helped the injured person aside, but the one who was stuck was helpless.

The steel frame of the body was completely deformed, trapping him in the driver's position, unable to move, a piece of metal fragment penetrated his calf, and the hoarse scream made everyone moved.

"Husband, fortunately we escaped, your reaction is so fast."

The wife comforted the child, walked to his side, and said with palpitations.

"It's not me, it's Moss."

The man smiled bitterly, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice that the authorized operation he set up casually at the beginning did not expect to save the lives of his family.

In his mind, the picture of tires flying sideways is vivid, and he knows very well that if he controls the steering wheel, it is difficult to complete a series of extreme operations such as acceleration, lane change, and dodging in one or two seconds.

The man shuddered as he listened to the muffled screams in his ears, and exhaled a few turbid breaths heavily.

"Moss? You mean, Moss Autopilot saved our lives? ”

The wife was incredulous.

"Autonomous driving technology" is not a new technology under the promotion of Qiandu and Gugou, even if the rice car is equipped with a Moss intelligent driving system, few people have used it.

At most, you can experience it for a minute or two on a safe section of the road.

When driving on the highway, no one dares to entrust their lives to intelligent systems.

"It is worthy of the software service provided by Future Technology, which is too powerful."

The man sighed.

Half an hour later, rescue vehicles arrived, and the injured were rescued and taken to the hospital.

After understanding the situation, the road patrol walked up to the man and asked in surprise, "Brother, are you a professional racing driver?" ”

From the surveillance of the rear car, it can be seen that the man is driving a rice car, passing by the tires, only ten centimeters away, and the injured person may become the man in front of him.

"It was Moss Autopilot that saved me."

The man is serious.

"Autopilot?"

The road inspectors looked at each other, apparently skeptical of this statement.

That night, the man who returned home processed the video clip of the dashcam and sent it to the comic platform.

"Thank you Rice Car for saving our family, Moss Smart my God! #大米汽车#死神来了#未来科技#全自动驾驶系统"

In the video screen, the rice car showed a limit operation, moved flexibly in the traffic, and successfully escaped the pursuit of death.

The second half of the video is a tragic scene of seven or eight cars crashing together.

"666, coquettish move, this big brother's driving skills are really cowhiather!"

"Go buy a lottery ticket~!"

"@猪猪不是平A现实版死神来了! Oh my God, I don't know if the owner will be able to escape the next time. ”

"The blessings accumulated in the previous life, this life has come to save you."

"Degang said: If you don't die, there will be a next time!"

"Some blind people, didn't you see what the blogger said? It was all thanks to the Moss intelligent system to take over the driving authority in time to dodge! ”

The video became more and more popular, until it was seen by the staff of the public relations department of Rice Automobile and reported to Rebus.

"Cast 100,000 Dou+ for him, I want to see this video appear on the first place on the hot search list!"

Lei Jun immediately decided.

With the increasing number of new energy vehicle companies with unlimited battery life, the sales growth rate of rice cars has slowed down significantly.

In fact, he wants to tell users that Rice Auto's fully autonomous driving system is also very good!

He blew it at the press conference, at the industry exchange meeting, but no one believed it.

Because the leaders in this field are Gugou, Qiandu and Truss, as for Rice Automobile, it is already shocking to be able to develop new battery packs, battery management systems and wireless charging technology.

What's more, Rice Automobile, including Shanhai Group, does not even have a map navigation APP, so it has naturally lost its research and development foundation and is not trusted by users.

On the other hand, it has only been two months since the launch of Rice Automobile, and less than 100,000 units have been delivered, and even fewer people have experienced this function.

In the early morning of the next day, the number of views, likes, comments, and retweets of this video jumped to the first place on the whole platform.

"#大米汽车VS死神", "#莫斯全自动驾驶系统", "#购买大米汽车的三个理由", "#现实版死神来了" and many other related search terms have landed in the top 10 of Weibo's hot search list.

At midnight, the night owls who love to eat melons are the most confused after watching the video content.

"What are you doing? For the sake of marketing, Rice Automobile even uses this method! ”

"I was at the scene of the car accident and proved that it was true."

"I'm the wheel, I can testify!"

"I tried the Moss autopilot function in the yard, as long as the emergency driving authorization is turned on, even if I want to drive to the wall, Moss can respond in milliseconds, braking or automatic avoidance!"

"Upstairs is a dog tray, what yard can be big enough for a test drive? Please finish elementary school and become a water army again, thank you! ”

"My family is in Kangaroo Country, can't I have a manor? Picture .jpg"

"Yo! Rich brother V50, look at the strength! ”

The comment area instantly became lively, some people scolded him for being a P picture, and some people knelt and licked, acting as an Internet beggar.

Others, with English commentary, posted videos on Facebook, oil depots, and Instagrams, and quickly hit the hit list because the keywords included "Moss", "Future Technology" and "Dami Tech".

Moss Ai has more than a billion fans overseas, among these people, there are many heavy users of Moss Ai painting and Moss Chat, Moss smart speakers, Moss Ai glasses and Dream game cabins are also deeply involved in the daily life of Euro and North Berry Continent.

The word "Moss", in the Western world, belongs to the top vocabulary!

“Oh My God! This driver is so lucky, God must be bless him! ”

"Fully autonomous driving system, what kind of black technology is this?"

"What exactly is Waymo working on? Rice Automobile's self-driving technology is significantly better than Waymo! ”

"I also want to buy such an electric car, I don't know if Truss's Autopilot self-driving assistant has such a powerful ability."

It's early in the morning here in Dahua, and it's in the morning in most areas of Beijizhou, and the surfing intensity is higher.

After analyzing the content frame by frame, they were shocked to find that it took only 0.87 seconds from the Moss system to take over the driving authority and accelerate to change lanes.

Truss headquarters.

In the Autopilot system R&D laboratory, Masco sat next to the president of the technical line and asked solemnly: "Can Autopilot reach this level?" ”

The president of the technical line frowned, looked at Mask, opened his mouth and said nothing, leaving a sigh.

It's all in plain sight!

“Shit! Last time in Shanghai, Mr. Chen mentioned it once and asked me if I wanted to authorize autonomous driving technology, but I actually refused. ”

Musk said with chagrin.

"No, I'm going to give him a call."

As soon as Maske took out his mobile phone and was about to dial it, his eyes just fell on the time, and he suddenly realized that this point was called, no matter whether anyone answered it or not, but it was definitely no fun to talk about cooperation.

On the other side, Waymo's R&D center.

"What does Waymo need to improve in order to do this?"

Big boss Milton asked.

"Judging from the video content alone, the other party's AI control algorithm and sensor technology should be far ahead of our scientific research level.

Unless we make a breakthrough in hardware and software products, it will be very difficult for the Waymo system to complete these operations in such a short period of time in three to five years. ”

The chief R&D engineer pondered for a moment and replied helplessly.

"Fack!"

Milton cursed loudly.

Waymo is a subsidiary of Alphabet, the parent company of Gugou, and has accumulated more than ten years of research and development experience as a pioneer in the research and development of autonomous driving technology in the beautiful country.

Using a combination of multiple sensors such as lidar, radar, and camera, and using powerful artificial intelligence algorithms, the data from the sensors is interpreted to make real-time driving decisions.

Until today, they had always thought that they were leaders in the industry!

But at this moment, the faith is completely shattered!

In terms of judgment, responsiveness, and maneuvering fluency, Waymo can't match Moss's level.

Li Hong of Qiandu Network was lying on the bed, and just about to fall asleep, he was woken up by a phone call from the person in charge of the Apollo project team.

The Apollo program is an open platform for autonomous driving launched by Qiandu.com, which has invested tens of billions of dollars and lasted four years, and is committed to becoming the leader of autonomous driving technology in China.

"Boss, I sent you a video and a research report, and the autonomous driving technology of Rice Car is unbelievably strong."

The subordinate explained slowly.

"Rice car? I know. ”

Li Hong got out of bed, came to the study, opened his laptop, and clicked on the video sent by the other party.

The 3 minutes and 26 seconds of video content can be called thrilling.

After reading it, he couldn't help frowning, sliding the mouse to flip through the analysis report sent by his subordinates.

Reading between the lines, you can feel a deep despair.

It's like two people participating in a 100-meter race, and the other party has come to the finish line, but they are still dangling at the starting point, which will naturally be full of a strong sense of powerlessness.

"Why are you always targeting me?"

Li Hong scolded sharply.

With Moss intelligent driving system, who will choose the Apollo system of 1000 degrees?

This night, too many people lost sleep because of this!

At 9 a.m. the next day, when Lei Jun's car was about to drive into the Rice Science and Technology Park, he was instantly surrounded by hundreds of reporters.

"Mr. Lei, can you talk about Moss's autonomous driving technology?"

"Mr. Lei, what do you think of last night's hot search video? In the next step, will you consider open licensing cooperation? ”

"Mr. Lei, who can be better than a ten-year-old driver with Moss intelligent driving system and a ten-year driver?"

“……”

Reporters scrambled to hand out interview microphones to get their hands on the scoop.

Lei Jun sat in the car, a little overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of these people.

He looked around and noticed that almost all the reporters from the mainstream business, automotive, and tech weekly were on the scene, and it would not be good to ignore them, so he pondered for a moment and said:

"Let's go to the living room for a break, give us a little time to prepare, and I'll hold a short press conference to answer your concerns."

When a large group of reporters heard Lei Jun say this, they silently put away the microphone and followed the staff of Rice Technology to the living room, waiting anxiously.

Ten minutes later, an administrative staff came to inform and led everyone to the multimedia conference room of Rice Technology.

After a while, a room that could accommodate several hundred people came into view, and Lei Jun was already sitting on the podium at this time.

After everyone was seated, Lei Jun waved his hand and motioned for reporters to ask questions.

"Mr. Lei, can you talk about Moss intelligent driving system?"

A reporter from the East China Automobile Evening News seized the opportunity and became the first to ask questions.

"I believe you can see from the name that this is an intelligent driving system developed by a future technology company, and it is named Moss, also because half of the functions of this system rely on Moss's artificial intelligence technology.

Therefore, journalists who want to know the details of authorized cooperation can leave this question to Mr. Zhang of Future Technology. ”

Lei Jun said with a smile.

"Mr. Lei, we want to know how far the Moss autonomous driving system has developed, and whether it can replace an experienced driver?"

The reporter of "Dahua Technology" got up and asked, with urgent inquiry in his eyes.

"The current technology is not mature, and whether it can be developed to this point in the future, I can only say that it is unknown."

Lei Jun was vague and perfunctory with the question.

The Moss autonomous driving system is currently positioned as a support role, and there is still a huge room for optimization.

In Chen Heyu's concept, at least when Yunkun Space Company completes the construction of the satellite power grid and begins to deploy the satellite Internet, will it slowly change the role of Moss's autonomous driving system.

From passive to proactive!

In the face of reporters' questions, Lei Jun was only willing to answer the information he knew, and the rest of the questions about technology were kicked to Zhang Nan.

This simple Q&A session lasted an hour before it ended.

Some of the core issues, the reporters obviously still don't know a lot, but it doesn't matter, this group of people went straight to the next stop - the future technology headquarters.

When Zhang Nan learned that a large number of social media reporters at home and abroad had gathered outside the gate of the park, he groaned a little, and then notified Wu Chen and Wei Gang to bring the core R&D engineers of Moss's autonomous driving system to participate in the press conference.

"Sensor technology: Acquire road, vehicle, and pedestrian information in real time using cameras, lidar, millimeter-wave radar, and ultrasonic sensors to understand road conditions in all aspects......"

"Intelligent Algorithm Model: Through high-performance computing platforms and complex algorithms, the data collected by sensors is processed and analyzed to accurately identify and understand the surrounding environment, including object detection, tracking, path planning, ......"

"High-precision maps: used to identify roads, lanes, traffic signs, etc., and combine them with real-time perception data, the technical support for this piece is provided by Gaode and Beidou systems."

"Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence ......"

Under the interpretation of the R&D engineers one by one, the reporters finally figured out the principle of Moss's autonomous driving technology.

Two months ago, at the new product launch of Rice Motors, Rebus boasted that the autonomous driving technology used by Rice Motors is the best system in the world.

At the time, too many people laughed it off and didn't take it seriously.

After all, bragging at the press conference is a tacit practice for the CEOs of various companies.

The popularity of Moss's autonomous driving system, fueled by the media, has become noisy.

Some car company bigwigs who have obtained satellite charging technology have begun to move again.

……

"Boss, the design drawings you sent last month were made by the factory."

After Lei Jun dealt with this group of reporters, he walked into the office and called Chen Heyu synchronously.

"Arrange for two units to be sent to Shanghai, and in addition, do a comprehensive performance test again, and send the report to me as soon as possible."

Chen Heyu thought for a long time and said in a solemn voice.
