Chapter 113 (1/2)
After the completion of the project, although Lei Tiantang was not very satisfied with the four square underground laboratory he had set up, for the time being, he would dig a bigger space under it when he had to carry out the spaceship construction work. Anyway, the spaceship project which will be held for a while and a half won't work.
So now this kind of three-layer space is enough. He is here to study some black technology materials and carry out some preliminary research and design on some subsystems of the spacecraft.
Of course, supercomputer is also the goal he wants to study first, because it is impossible for supercomputers to produce super artificial intelligence at all. The so-called artificial intelligence developed by major companies can be described as artificial intelligence disability. Almost all of them use large data search to answer questions, and all of them complete the processing of various problems according to the program Without its own exclusive thinking, it can not be called artificial intelligence.
The artificial intelligence that Lei Tiantang plans to build is to have its own ideas, be able to learn by oneself, be full of emotion, have willpower and determination, and be able to implement actions with self-consciousness.
Nowadays, artificial intelligence has been very hot. It seems that people in the science and technology circles, no matter whether they are in science and technology circles, should talk about artificial intelligence on their lips to show how they keep pace with the times. If a company can get more attention from the artificial intelligence project, it can attract more attention from investors.
Lei Tiantang has seen such an example when checking information some time ago. A company that makes children's schoolbags claims to be an artificial intelligence company. It turns out that there is a sensor that can be positioned in the schoolbag. While what these companies are doing has nothing to do with AI, it can be very helpful in financing.
But are these artificial intelligence? The answer must be No. Kevin Mitnick, the world's top hacker, said cruelly at the summit of Internet security leaders in China in August 2017: ”I have not really contacted the core tools and technologies that are truly in line with artificial intelligence. There are no real human intelligence products now, and all AI is fake.”
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 supercomputers is far away from the development of real artificial intelligence. Without good hardware, the computing power will not reach the standard of artificial intelligence.
Therefore, if Lei Tiantang wants to create real artificial intelligence, he must first break through the bottleneck of supercomputer. The existing technology is certainly not feasible. He must design a more advanced supercomputer, and the performance of this supercomputer must be at least 100000 times higher than that of the existing supercomputer, because only such a high performance can be achieved Computers can be used to make real artificial intelligence.
Now, the direction of breakthrough is quantum computer. The first step of Lei Tiantang's plan is to build a real quantum computer. It is not the kind of test object whose performance can not reach the performance of the existing supercomputer in the laboratory, but the mature design of the existing supercomputer in performance.
He also needs a lot of energy to design a quantum computer, because the hardware and software of the whole quantum computer have to be designed from the beginning. Although he can open up and produce the chips and other hardware needed by the quantum computer, the software application is still in the way.
