From black technology to super engineering

"The current weight of Aita is about 60 kilograms, and the weight is mainly in the lower body and the battery pack at the waist." Ye Ming pointed to the mechanical body and said: "First of all, just overcoming the weight of the battery will consume a lot of energy—although the battery The module can be designed in the balance system, but due to the existence of inertia, it is easy to cause the attitude to lock in an unexpected situation, so that it will be dry-climbed at once."

This is like a person who walks a tightrope performing a balance, usually holding a very light and long pole instead of holding a 40-pound battery pack in his hands.

"Then can the battery be integrated in the legs?" Professor Chen also stood up, his chin resting on his hands, his eyes burning: "Use 18650 batteries to form muscle blocks, and then the leg structure can be made of lightweight materials. "

"Think about it, but it affects the movement. You can see that the structure of the thigh is perfectly in line with the mechanical structure design. The redundancy is only one layer of shell."

Professor Chen frowned, nodded, and said after a while: "By the way, if it's really a housekeeping robot, it's actually not a big problem, right?"

Ye Ming laughed.

If you just stay at home, it's certainly not a big problem.

But how could it be possible to stay at home all day and night? It can't be like the previous two years, where it was banned every day.

"I always want to extend her to other fields." At this time, Professor Tang also said with a smile: "Whether it is combat, or other special industries, or other forms, solving the problem of portable energy is always the key .”

"Well, that's true." Professor Chen nodded again, took a few steps back, looked at the robot, and smiled with satisfaction: "But this shape is indeed a bit crude, when will we make a shell?"

"I brought it out today just to design it."

"Then after the casing is finished, the press conference can be developed - what about mass production? What about the cost?"

Professor Tang also added: "Count the local computing and projection systems you mentioned earlier."

Speaking of this, Ye Ming coughed.

In terms of cost, the prototype model made by Ita is estimated to be around 150,000 soft sister coins-please note that this is without any "intellectual" cost, and there is no local computing system and projection that Ye Ming mentioned before .

"In total, it's about 160,000 to 70,000 yuan. The main reason is that many customized designs are expensive. If mass production can be carried out... it will probably be controlled to..."

Ye Ming looked at the ceiling at forty-five degrees.

"Well, I can't figure it out."

The two professors laughed at the same time.

In the company, Ye Ming has never been in charge of raw materials, production and sales—in a sense, all the current business of Jizhi Technology comes from his design.

Anyway, it is now, Ye Ming is going out to engage in black technology, and then Jizhi Technology is responsible for realizing it.

He doesn't need to worry about cost at all.

Professor Tang shook his head with a smile: "Send over the design plan, let's have someone calculate it."

"Well, it has been uploaded to the file server just now." Ye Ming chuckled: "I hope she is not too expensive."

The two professors looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

They know that Ye Ming is a typical guy who spares no effort to promote the popularization of technology, but...

Forget about hybrid chips that benefit patients.

This kind of product is obviously not very affordable for the poor, and they will not buy it, and those who want to buy it will not consider the price...

Why can't this money be earned?

"Ye Ming, do you know what it means if it goes online with Aita?" Professor Chen pointed at the robot and smiled.

"Aita" moved his eyes along with his fingers, and nodded slightly.

"Eh...means that human technology has entered a new stage?"

"..." Professor Chen froze for a moment, nodded and smiled, "Yes, but more importantly, she is unique."

"Even if the current industrial system and industrial production capacity can make the cost of machinery cheaper than a Wuling Hongguang, are you going to give this AI away for nothing?"

"Aita is currently the only strong artificial intelligence in the entire field of artificial intelligence! Do you know how many attacks are intercepted by the data center in the provincial capital every day? Let me tell you, this place has become a shooting range for hackers." Professor Chen laughed He shook his head: "Do you think she can cook?"

"It might work."

"By the way, I can cook, I can clean the house, I can be quiet when I have nothing to do, I don't worry about stealing your things, I won't annoy you, I can show you movies, maybe I can play games with you— - Can you play games?"

Ye Ming thought for a while and then nodded: "Sure."

"Look." Professor Chen said with a smile, "It's cheap, can you bear it?"

Ye Ming couldn't laugh or cry.

Professor Tang also said at this time: "Old Chen is right, just because you want to log into Aita, you really can't lower your value."

Ye Ming exhaled lightly.

He does know that Aita is very sharp. It can be said that her birth directly triggered a big discussion in the field of AI science.

One school of opinion believes that Aita is still a weak artificial intelligence in essence—an AI that completes tasks according to the algorithms and logic set by humans and solves problems is a weak AI, just like all AIs currently on the market.

It's just that Aita is the kind that uses computing power to the extreme, and belongs to strong "weak artificial intelligence".

The reason why this school holds this view is because they believe that "strong artificial intelligence" needs to be born with consciousness, have a human way of thinking, and be able to think and solve problems independently.

But another school of opinion believes that Aita has adopted a brand-new "thinking and learning" algorithm, and her thinking process is a pure black box-this is confirmed by Jizhi Technology.

Then, according to Aita’s passing of the Turing test, through her “talent” in natural language, through her performance in various tasks, especially in EDA design, it can be considered that she actually possesses a certain human way of thinking.

Those who support Aita as strong AI also believe that self-awareness is not a prerequisite for strong AI, but the way of thinking is.

As for AI with self-awareness, emotion, and even independent personality, it should not be called Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Instead, it should be called DL (Digital life), digital life.

The two schools of thought have been arguing for a long time, and in the end the first school accepted the theory that the latter singled out digital life, and accepted the view that Aita is a strong AI.

After all, the logic and way of thinking shown by Aita are more consistent with human beings than all existing AIs.

"Okay." Ye Ming nodded.

The two professors smiled at the same time again.

Just then, Professor Tang's phone rang.

He glanced at the number and thought for a few seconds: "Where is the area code of 001650? Is it Laomei's side?"

Ye Ming and Professor Chen shook their heads at the same time to express their ignorance.

After being startled, Professor Tang immediately raised his head and laughed: "Why don't you ask Aita, Aita, where is 0016507768424?"

Aita's elegant voice sounded: "Palo Alto, California, Tesla Building."

(I lost track of time bragging with friends in the group. Blame them)
