The technology accumulated on our planet is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, but various groups have hidden it because of their own interests and cannot share it. Many theoretical studies are enough for us to escape from the solar system. The frequent emergence of master figures in the past hundred years has pushed human imagination to the extreme.
There are many factors to consider in civilian technology, such as cost, safety, convenience, usage habits, interference from vested interest groups, etc. Therefore, it does not have to be advanced to be widely used.
Li Zhuang has been working during this period and rarely goes out. He is just a little surprised why there is no power outage and the roar of the high-power diesel generator set is not heard.
Domestic power problems have always been serious. Because Weisen Science and Technology Park is a key unit, power outages are rare. However, considering safety and the operation of precision instruments and equipment, the company purchased a large diesel generator set and designed and built a diesel filter. , to improve the quality of oil and supply it to high-power generator sets. The original small electromagnetic filtering device was just a helpless transitional measure.
During lunch, Li Zhuang went to the company cafeteria to eat and met He Xiuwen, who was chatting with a group of people in the New Energy Laboratory. Each laboratory also has small restaurants, but everyone still likes to eat in the company's large canteen. The reason is simple, there are many dishes to choose from, and it¡¯s lively. He remembered the question he had asked some time ago and asked about the progress in fuel cells.
He Xiuwen was speechless and called the leader of the fuel cell project team next to him and asked him to report to Li Zhuang.
"Mr. Li, nice to meet you."
The leader of the project team greeted him respectfully. He only joined Li Zhuang after retreating. As the founder of Wesson Technology, every new employee knows Li Zhuang's name, but they have never seen him before. It is said that they have been studying something in the laboratory.
"Hello, I'm very happy to have you join. Could you please tell me about the progress." Li Zhuang has always been very polite to talents.
Comrade team leader will tell you about the development in the past few years.
When the company was founded, there were not many researchers in the New Energy Laboratory and there were many research projects. We had no choice but to focus on electric vehicles. Li Zhuang doesn't know much about battery technology, but He Xiuwen is an expert. He has some research on the entire battery field, but he is best at lithium batteries.
Although fuel cells have many problems when used in automobiles, they are very promising in the field of industrial power generation. The power generation efficiency is higher than that of power plants, but the investment is large, there are many problems with connecting to the grid, the power generation is not enough, and the management amount is not small. Frequency conversion issues and price management are not simple. The former has high technical requirements and the latter has serious interest issues.
The New Energy Laboratory has been recruiting employees who have research on fuel cells, but the domestic level in this area is not high enough. Zhang Kai mobilized the laboratory staff to search for a group abroad. Even Yamamoto also brought over a few friends from Japan. The leader of the project team is a Chinese, an outstanding figure who came out of the Academy of Sciences. Like Wu Wg, he is also a rare double doctor.
The fuel cell project team mainly promotes solid oxide fuel cells. The current energy conversion efficiency is about 65%, which is a super big guy. The power station was built on the edge of the industrial zone. It was jointly funded by the bosses of the laboratory and the industrial zone, and the city government also allocated funds.
The attitude of the city government on this project was very critical. As a result, the relevant departments had a feud with the power grid. The subsequent dispute over concentrated solar cells was just a trigger. First, civilian electricity was removed, and then industrial electricity was removed. Even the power supply to government buildings was not supported. This caused the power grid to take relatively drastic actions in the anger of the person in charge of K City. Of course, it was supported by the upper levels. result.
This large power station mainly uses coal gas and natural gas as fuel, and sometimes hydrogen. The hydrogen production and storage project team established a large-scale concentrated solar energy device on a hill near K City to conduct research, and the produced hydrogen was stored. The industrial zone power station company took a fancy to the by-products of their research and bought them to generate electricity.
The power transmission and distribution project team developed a perfect sine wave DC-AC inverter for this project, ensuring the stability of the factory equipment.
The head of the fuel cell project team wanted to talk endlessly and show off his achievements in other areas in front of his boss Li, but was interrupted by He Xiuwen. He knew that Li Zhuang's time was very tight, and he was able to listen for so long mainly because of some special reason.
Li Zhuang was very happy, and his mood improved a lot during class. The students were a little surprised by his lively chatting and laughing.
Since the establishment of the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, it has been developing a compact intelligent brain integrated with 100,000 artificial neurons. Such a simple thing is not difficult for Li Zhuang, even for IBM back then. The intelligent flight system developed by the IBM Artificial Intelligence Laboratory for the Citi Air Force has been in use for more than ten years.
The first 100,000-level smart brain on the market was launched by IBM. It was the first model in the company¡¯s artificial intelligence laboratory.The workmanship and stability of this type of work are as excellent as previous products, and the energy consumption is very low. But everyone knows that this is just IBM's helpless trick to recruit talents and show the world that "I am still very powerful."
Wesson Technology's Intelligent Brain Laboratory focuses on how to improve compactness and develop more efficient software systems. As for the research on interface modules with the existing von Neumann system, the Intelligent Production Laboratory is responsible for the company's work here. Blocks are already powerful enough.
The appearance of wai101 was designed by Lisa. She fully considered the heat dissipation problem and designed the entire product to be beautiful. It is completely different from people like Li Zhuang who only copy the appearance and pay attention to operating efficiency.
The completed wai101 gives visitors to the company¡¯s product display building a feeling of coming to the future. The smart brain, which is only the size of a desk, fully demonstrates the progress of IT manufacturing technology over the years. The exquisite human-machine dialogue system, automatic translation system, and scene mode system make use relatively simple.
In the face of real artificial intelligence, the so-called translation problem is just a joke. Vicki analyzed the relevant linguistic data and designed the translation system by herself, and the related docking processing was completed by the high-performance brain laboratory. Although it cannot be compared with master translators, when this system was sent to several universities in the province for experts to evaluate, the famous translator Professor Wu said with a smile, "I am worried that my students will not have food." Eat, luckily I can still have food to eat.¡±
wai101 has received orders for more than 600 units. The first batch of smart brains shipped from the factory adopted an adoption ceremony, mainly targeting wealthy customers.
Customer representatives all arrived a month in advance, waiting to meet their little babies and develop relationships. The company specifically stated that the three principles of robots are unreliable and can only be set up to have one master. This has made competition within each family very fierce. Everyone knows that once the housekeeper system used in conjunction with it is launched, this intelligent brain will be their most trustworthy subordinate. .
The housekeeper system launched by the smart home project team includes weapons-grade bulletproof high-power lasers and closed-circuit surveillance systems. The company had to go through a lot of ups and downs before reluctantly passing it, using some tricks. It only said it had a laser, but did not say it was a weapons-grade laser system. Domestic leaders are no strangers to lasers, but they don't know much about the extent of the development of Wesson Technology's lasers, so they don't take it seriously.
More than 400 units were sold abroad, all of which were transferred to the account of the super estate project team through offshore company transactions. To Li Zhuang's surprise, it was a big hit in China, including later wai201, which received orders for more than a thousand units. The taxes paid by the company's automatic tax system almost caused the leaders of K City's tax department to almost have a cerebral hemorrhage. Later, they even specially Invite company management to dinner.
The overall situation is in chaos. Most of the wealthy people in the country have irregular wealth sources and lack a sense of security, including public servants. There are too many unidentified properties in a mess. Li Zhuang's youngest daughter, Vicky, did not engage in research during this period. Her first job was to take over from Wu Xiaoxiao as a thief and fund manager. She collected nearly 500 billion US dollars and put them into anonymous accounts in Swiss banks. This part of the funds is very safe, and the people who have been stolen don't even dare to say anything. It is often the case that the families of naked officials wandering overseas find that they have nothing.
When the first payment came in, it included an advance payment for a new order, which gave Wang Mei a feeling of being trapped in a golden mountain. She found Li Zhuang and stammered that she wanted to buy an airplane. Li Zhuang rolled his eyes at her and said, "How about you build another airport?"
Wang Mei smiled self-deprecatingly and gave up on this nonsensical idea.
The construction of super estates is accelerating, La Grange¡¯s dedicated dock has been expanded on a large scale, and environmental protection has been done very well. Most of the local people were hired by the super estate project team and became company employees. The steel plant is progressing smoothly. Precision equipment imported from Germany and Japan is flooding into the dedicated terminal. Two airports that can take off and land the largest A380 passenger aircraft are under construction.
The scale of the concentrated solar power generation and seawater desalination system has been expanded three to four times, taking into account the drinking water and electricity problems of surrounding residents and indigenous people. Some of the fresh water is even sent to Port Hedland through pipelines.
Li Zhuang took Zhang Kai and the human resources department to Citigroup to find Thomas. This guy is having a hard time now, but as a native, he is still happy to lead the way for Lizhuang and visit various famous universities and research institutes.
MIT is his hometown, and cit is his hometown when he was an undergraduate. These two famous universities have most of the talents that Li Zhuang needs, and of course Harvard and Stanford have not been spared.
Comrade Li Zhuang, who came from a certain communist country and had not even graduated from high school, was welcomed by the university he visited. Even the scholar he had defeated happily had dinner with him.
"Li Zhuang is famous, Zhang Kai is a human spirit, and Thomas is a traitor. It is not difficult to visit some well-known scientists and engineers. Some scientists work in top-secret departments and cannot come out, and some are not well-known.When the offer came over, Zhang Kai accepted it without politeness. Citigroup attaches great importance to basic education and has abundant talents. It is no accident that Citigroup has become the world's most powerful country.
Theoretical physics, space physics, nuclear science, basic chemistry, applied chemistry, biotechnology, genetic engineering, nanotechnology, precision machinery, laser engineering, etc. Anyway, as long as there are talents that can be used, Li Zhuang will visit them and provide them with basic theories. Mainly research on aspects. These people were not that sensitive, and the relevant departments of Citigroup followed suit. Fortunately, they found that no technical secrets were involved, so they didn't pay too much attention. It was regarded as Li Zhuang's respect for these fellow-minded people.
In mid-April, Li Zhuang ate in the MIT cafeteria and watched a display of unprecedented scale.
The Japanese have launched a robot, and it is a very intelligent robot.
The Tokyo Joint Artificial Intelligence Laboratory released the world's first humanoid intelligent robot in Tokyo on April 15th. The technological advancement is still beyond the research level of Wesson Technology.
The high-power isotope battery, ultra-high-strength body, perfect balance system, 50,000 artificial neuron integrated chips, precision optical vision and infrared detection systems have exhausted the advanced technology reserves that Japan has developed over decades, shocking the world like never before. super technology.
Japan¡¯s battery technology has always been the world¡¯s leader. Although isotope batteries have a long life, their output power is limited and they are mainly used in a few fields such as aerospace and medical care. Japan's micro high-power isotope battery technology has obviously been put into practical use. As for the safety that everyone is worried about, Japanese scientists demonstrated it on site. The leader of the robot project team put the battery into the fire, burned it at high temperature for several hours, and then took it out and installed it on the robot. It still worked normally. He then conducted physical tests. The strength of the battery exceeded people's imagination. It was estimated that it was made of nano-alloy materials.
Washington immediately requested the purchase of the technology, and the Japanese were very happy. The Prime Minister's original words were "One trillion U.S. dollars, bring it over and I'll give it to you." Washington is not used to his younger brother suddenly becoming so loud and threatening to impose trade sanctions. The Japanese, who are accustomed to obeying the strong, have fully demonstrated their national characteristics this time. They immediately announced the launch of an intelligent brain with five million neurons, and released a video of the intelligent brain automatically controlling the development, improvement, and production of robots. At the same time, they claimed that they had The design of the 10 million neuron smart brain has been completed and will be launched within two years after full testing.
The Citizen Navy launched a targeted unmanned combat aircraft with 100,000 neuron integrated chips, showing off its power on the coast of Japan, and released a video of the aircraft on the aircraft carrier automatically taking off and landing, and the robot automatically refueling.
People¡¯s habits are actually not that different, no matter which country they are from. Everyone followed suit, and within two or three days all kinds of robots and weapons and equipment were displayed one after another.
Sure enough, at any time, the most advanced technology is used in the military.
It seemed that in an instant, the whole world reacted and was dumbfounded.
Countries possessing nuclear weapons immediately disconnected the automated control systems of powerful weapons and switched to manual control. The military is on standby 24 hours a day to prevent any accidents.
Tokyo was stupid. I didn¡¯t expect that I was so impulsive. The higher-ups didn¡¯t know if they wanted to vent all the anger they suffered after World War II.
Washington is also stupid. Although everyone knows that Citigroup has started research on drones a long time ago, and its technology is extremely advanced, it has never seen a real combat scene. The most it can do is publish photos of drones and show them off in movies. some type of.
??????????????? Other countries only had the idea of ????comparison at first, but later they hesitated a little, so as not to let all the secrets be exposed. Even so, the three killer weapons of unmanned combat aircraft, combat robots, and intelligent missiles have already made the world panic.
Every nation has its strengths and weaknesses. People are not perfect, and neither is a group of people, nor is a system perfect.
A group of people go crazy and others are easily infected, so large-scale fighting always starts from an inadvertent small fuse. The Japanese are the trigger. The Citizen military is used to being arrogant and doesn't think much about it. Besides, this is not the first time the military has released intelligent drones.
When Li Zhuang saw the Tokyo robot display, he immediately called Yamamoto and asked him what he thought about this. Yamamoto felt a little aggrieved and just said, "I am an Australian now, but I used to be a Citizen. The Japanese have nothing to do with me. I have to work and I have three children waiting for me to raise," and then hung up the phone.
Li Zhuang analyzed Japan¡¯s 5 million neuron brain based on the video and found that the performance was close to Vicky¡¯s. He sighed a little in his heart. The power of an individual cannot match the power of the collective. Vicky, which he worked hard to conceive and develop for five years, still seems to be somewhat inadequate compared with the exquisite and delicate Japanese style. With his expertise in artificial intelligenceWith the above-mentioned training, it can be easily seen that the Japanese have used more advanced components than him, and only used half of the artificial neurons to achieve 70% of Vicky's performance. The importance of the industrial base is undoubted. He was not sure that Vicky could be improved to a more advanced level in the short term. The artificial neural network computer itself had flaws. Although he had considered the possibility of future upgrades when designing Vicky and had been thinking about the hardware architecture for several years.
The atmosphere of the whole world has become a little solemn. In the past few years, ordinary people who have been a little suspicious of the progress of their brains have finally burst out of fear.
Ordinary people still believe in the "Three Principles of Robotics" and think they can control robots, but there are a few smartphone researchers who believe this. Asimov is not Turing, he is just a writer of novels. No matter how great he is, he is only a great writer, not a master of computer theory. Socrates is not Einstein. No matter how sophisticated his theory is, scientists don't like it. They still look at Einstein and Heisenberg.
Why is the Terminator series so popular? The reason is self-evident.
The Japanese impulse has opened Pandora's box. Although everyone is researching intelligent robots, they are doing it secretly, knowing that this matter is very subtle. Scientists are desperately trying to develop better control rules, and engineers are trying to turn their ideas into reality.
When Li Zhuang saw the emergence of micro-high-power isotope batteries, he immediately accelerated the collection of theoretical talents, and talents in nonlinear component research were a top priority.
Zhang Kai took the staff of the personnel department and laboratory researchers to take advantage of this delicate moment to begin a large-scale search for talents and send them to Australia.
Canberra has opened its doors to convenience. Green cards are being issued wildly. People who want to naturalize are welcome at any time. Anyway, those who come here are high-level talents.
Watching people who have lost their jobs due to the large-scale use of artificial intelligence demonstrating everywhere, Li Zhuang feels that any technological advancement will harm the interests of some people, and he only hopes that he will not be unlucky. While the airport was still closed, he bid farewell to the scientists who had no plans to leave Citigroup and boarded a plane to Perth.
