Extraterrestrial parasite

Chen Yang packed up all the experimental equipment, turned around and sat on the chair. With a push of his feet, the chair slid gently towards the host computer.

Based on the importance of a happy mood in research and study, Chen Yang simply changed the chair to a soft leather chair with rollers. Not only was it comfortable to sit on, but he could move freely in the basement with just one step. The inner sliding system effectively improves the researcher's working mood and comfort.

When the researcher's mood improves, his work will naturally improve to a certain extent.

Chen Yang continued to research on artificial intelligence.

According to what the right hand said, in the research of computer intelligence in advanced civilizations, the most important thing is to study simulated consciousness from scratch. Only by thoroughly studying simulated consciousness can computer intelligence be initially brewed.

Chen Yang has a deep understanding of this. As a technological product of advanced civilization, the virtual consciousness simulated by Cornerstone Core is almost the same as that of a real person, making it difficult for Chen Yang, a human being, to distinguish the authenticity from the fake. Although the cornerstone core is not a complete application of artificial intelligence technology, just a slightly involved part is beyond Chen Yang's ability to study.

Not to mention him, even his right hand was hesitant, and he couldn't come up with a real theoretical reason. This is like the launch and use of a nuclear bomb, which only requires entering a password and pressing a button. But how the nuclear bomb is made and the specific design principles, the person who presses the button to launch the nuclear bomb must be stunned.

Even so, the right hand of an artificial intelligence that is too advanced cannot make suggestions, but an artificial intelligence that is beyond the current level of human research can still give some advice.

Of course, the right hand is an egoist. If it didn't think that artificial intelligence would be helpful in future plans and expected it to help Chen Yang for free, it would be better to discuss what to eat today.

In view of this, the right hand gave a suggestion that the research of artificial intelligence should start from simulating consciousness. It does not have to truly reach the full level of human consciousness. It should first accept "information stimulation" from the outside as the first step, and then slowly progress.

Despite this general policy, if we really want to study simulated consciousness, it involves not only computer technology, but also a wide range of knowledge such as philosophy, which makes Chen Yang very confused. So with a headache, he simply slowed down this step and started working on the robot part first.

This robot - the crude robot with exposed wiring currently on the console table, is about the size of a mobile phone with a five-inch screen.

The earliest human robot is a non-electronic program-controlled robot. Its driving structure consists of a core ratchet turning a tooth, and then there are many changing contacts. Each different contact is connected to a different mechanical operating part. This drives these mechanical parts to move.

With the rotation of the ratchet and the change of the contact point, the movable mechanical parts are also different, so these mechanical parts make up its activities.

In this ancient design, no electronic components are used, so it is called a non-electronic robot.

However, because there are very few contacts that can be accommodated on the ratchet, the activities of this kind of robot are not only stiff, but also have few steps and slow speed, which are all big shortcomings.

Now in the 21st century, electronic technology has developed rapidly, and computer program control drive has become the mainstream design of robots.

Compared with non-electronic robots, the range and scope of activity changes, speed and flexibility of electronic robots controlled by computer programs are far beyond those of ancient robots, and their advantages are quite obvious.

It's just that every step of the robot's activity requires writing hundreds or even thousands of sentences of programs, and the electronic robot has to constantly change its moving parts in every activity, which makes writing programs not only an arduous task, but also difficult to write. When an error occurs in an activity program, the long process of checking, modifying, and debugging the program will make many people slap the table and get so angry that they go crazy and quit!

In order to avoid this complicated and painful task, Chen Yang decided to use a "self-programming algorithm".

Once an error occurs in current electronic robots, designers need to troubleshoot the errors one by one, which is not only cumbersome but also a waste of time.

The self-programming algorithm is to design a self-programming program to allow the robot to complete its own work of discovering activity errors and proposing modification plans.

In other words, as long as the robot makes an error, it does not require human intervention. It will detect and troubleshoot the error by itself, then propose a solution and complete all the work alone.

This is the most ideal primary intelligent robot...

There is no single country in the world that can completely handle this, not even Japan, which has mastered the ultra-high technology of electronic robots.

At this point, Chen Yang shamelessly took advantage of the situation. He copied the core control program on the TC-100 UAV designed by his right hand, and then absorbed its advantages to create a robot as big as a mobile phone. Control driver for self-programming algorithms.

It is definitely not as good as the drone made by his right hand, but it is no small achievement, especially if it is made by Chen Yang himself, the feeling is very different.

This experimental robot was initially named "01", and the number 01 was imprinted on it with a laser, giving this compact robot a somewhat handsome appearance.

"Well, let's see how it goes this time..."

After immersed in debugging for half an hour, Chen Yang clicked the mouse and pressed the action button.

01 The indicator light above lit up red, and the motor below began to rotate the four wheels. The entire mobile phone-sized robot slowly moved on the table. It first circled along the edge of the table, and then shrunk by ten centimeters to surround the table. It goes around in a circle, and finally closes the distance again, and then returns to its original position after going around in a circle.

Especially the last point is very important. After returning to the original position, 01 also slightly adjusted his posture, so that when he finally stopped, he was exactly the same as before he moved, which was amazing.

There was nothing on the table, so the difficulty 01 encountered was not great. When Chen Yang put it on the ground, the difficulties he encountered were not the same as before.

Not only are there a lot of debris on the ground, there are also many "complex terrains" and obstacles, all of which are obstacles to 01's progress.

"Chichi..."

01's motor made a sound, and headed towards the unknown front without hesitation. There were actually only two things it had to do. One was to finish exploring the closed floor of the basement, and the other was to return to its original position completely.

The instruction is very simple, but it not only requires the sensor to work normally, but also to effectively synthesize and utilize the information collected by the sensor. In the core chip of 01, countless invisible currents are constantly converging and flowing, unimaginably huge. The amount of information is continuously "absorbed" and calculated...

"sharp……"

Sitting on a chair and watching the operation of 01, Chen Yang had to admire the drone control program on his right hand.

Although it seems that the robot is only doing exploration work, it seems very simple. However, if you think about it, isn't the exploration vehicle launched by NASA to Mars just for exploration?

The most important and core part of the exploration rover is the automatic control program designed by NASA engineers who spent a lot of time and money. It is used to troubleshoot some errors on its own and cope with the complex conditions of Mars when the Mars exploration rover cannot receive instructions from the earth. The environment is a very complex thing.

What 01 is currently doing is similar to that of the Mars Exploration Rover. Maybe NASA’s Exploration Rover is not as good as 01 in this regard.

Twenty minutes later, 01 successfully completed exploring the basement and returned to its original position.
