I Have a Little Black Hole

v1 Chapter 113: All beginnings are hard

After the completion of the project, although Lei Tiantang is not too satisfied with the boxy underground laboratory he has built, it is for the time being. When the construction of the spacecraft is about to start, he will dig a larger space below. , Anyway, the spacecraft project that is now in a while is still out of reach.

   So now this three-layer space is enough. He is now studying some black technology materials, etc., and doing some preliminary research and design on some subsystems of the spacecraft.

Of course, supercomputers are also his first research goal, because it is impossible for the current supercomputers to give birth to super artificial intelligence. The so-called artificial intelligence researched by major companies can be described as artificial intelligence, almost all of them Using big data search to answer questions is to complete the processing of various problems in accordance with the procedures, without their own exclusive thinking at all, and cannot be called artificial intelligence.

  The artificial intelligence created by the Leitiantang Project requires its own thoughts, self-learning, emotional, willpower and determination, and the ability to act with self-consciousness.

   Nowadays, artificial intelligence has been very hot. It seems that people in the science and technology circle have to talk about artificial intelligence to show how advanced they are with the times. Many startups like to put an artificial intelligence label on their projects. This will not only attract eyeballs, but also attract investors' favor.

   Lei Tiantang saw an example of this when searching for information some time ago. A company that makes children’s schoolbags claimed to be an artificial intelligence company. The result is that a sensor that can be located is placed in the bag. Although what these companies do has nothing to do with artificial intelligence, it may be of great help in financing.

   But are these artificial intelligences? The answer is definitely no. When the world’s top hacker, Kevin Mitnick, participated in the China Internet Security Leaders Summit in August 2017, he cruelly stated: “I have not really come into contact with core tools and technologies that truly conform to artificial intelligence. There are no real artificial intelligence products, all AI is fake."

The reason why real artificial intelligence cannot be born is that on the one hand, there is no breakthrough in the design algorithm. On the other hand, the most important thing is that the performance of current supercomputers is far from the development of real artificial intelligence, and there is no good hardware. , Computing power will not meet the standards of artificial intelligence.

Therefore, if Lei Tiantang wants to create real artificial intelligence on his own, he must first break through the bottleneck of the supercomputer. The existing technology is definitely not enough. He must go one step further and design a more advanced supercomputer. The performance must be at least 100,000 times that of existing supercomputers, because only computers with such high performance can be used to produce real artificial intelligence.

And now the direction that can achieve breakthroughs is quantum computers. The first step of Lei Tiantang’s plan is to build a real quantum computer, not the kind of experimental product whose performance in the laboratory does not reach the performance of the existing supercomputer. It is a mature design that truly explodes existing supercomputers in performance.

And designing a quantum computer also takes him a lot of effort, because the entire quantum computer hardware and software have to be designed from scratch. Although he can produce hardware such as chips for quantum computers, the software application is still A stumbling block.

   And this is just the beginning. It does not mean that the development of a quantum computer is complete. It takes a lot of effort to go from a quantum computer to a quantum supercomputer. Only when a quantum supercomputer is developed can he start developing strong artificial intelligence.

   Of course, this is all in the future. Now he can only copy a supercomputer in the laboratory, and then build some more units and add it to a certain extent to improve its computing power. It is still possible to support the preliminary research.

   Let’s not talk about supercomputers, let’s just say that an underground laboratory with such a large space can’t have Lei Tiantang doing everything himself, right? It is impossible for him to let others know about this laboratory, so there is no way to recruit people to participate in his experiment, so the robot is his only choice now.

Fortunately, robot manufacturing is now a very popular industry. He has many things to learn from. He is planning to take time to "visit" the companies that design and produce robots, learn from each other's strengths, and design some of his own robots after synthesis. Anyway, he doesn't have the ability to produce real intelligent robots. It's no problem to use these program-controlled robots to help him do simple things. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

   After quantum supercomputers are produced, real artificial intelligence is born, and the intelligence of robots will be improved. At that time, the robot must be redesigned.

   The underground laboratory is basically like this now. After Lei Tiantang has processed the laying of various passages and pipelines, he took a look at the absolute field. There is nothing wrong with it. They are all handled according to his previous design.

The big space is settled. The next task is to divide the small space. The next two layers are left alone, because they are not available for the time being. The first layer still needs to be divided, because some experiments require confined spaces. Yes, the whole laboratory can't be a Chase shop.

A simple division was made. The walls were also made of high-strength alloys. The first layer was divided into four areas, one of which was also divided into upper and lower layers, where the supercomputer was placed. Although Lei Tian Tang is now manufacturing There is no quantum computer, but it is easy to simply copy the IBM supercomputer he purchased for the material company's laboratory.

Of course, looking at his segmentation, he knows that he needs to use a large number of computer units to pile performance, and must pile the performance of the supercomputer to a limit. Anyway, it will not take him much time. The performance of the computer determines the speed of his future research. Fast or slow, of course, the higher the performance, the better.

The other three areas are the same as the laboratories of the materials company. They are all metal laboratories, non-metal laboratories and comprehensive laboratories. His previous research must focus on materials. After all, this is the basis of other research. .

   After finishing the partition, Lei Tiantang clapped his hands and nodded in satisfaction, and then put all the experimental equipment that had been stored in his storage space in their corresponding areas according to their categories. It was finally a thing.
