Giant of the times

When the era of robots arrives, many jobs will indeed be replaced by them. Many experts believe that according to the current development trend of robots, 50% of people in the world will be unemployed in 20 years.

Will Li Zetian not develop robots because of this?

Won't!

Technology cannot be stopped.

If you don’t develop, won’t others also develop?

At present, because artificial intelligence robots are developing too fast, many people feel anxious, including even the world-renowned scientist Hawking. These people believe that developing artificial intelligence is opening Pandora's box and releasing the devil. Sooner or later, mankind will encounter an artificial intelligence crisis!

In response, Li Zetian smiled noncommittally. No matter what the future holds, for now, artificial intelligence is beneficial to humans.

In fact, compared with robots and humans, humans have more advantages.

The human brain is tens of thousands of times more powerful than the most advanced robots.

Also, humans have genes, but robots don’t.

Once you master the secret of genes, you will be like a god!

In movies or novels, human genes mutate and then possess powerful superpowers, which is actually very consistent with scientific principles. Gene Technology Company has an internal "super human" plan that uses gene editing technology to purposefully transform human genes to make humans healthier and stronger!

Although not much results have been achieved yet, the research direction is always correct.

In the future, humans will still be the race at the top of the food chain! ! !

…

At the railing, the misty rain stopped.

Li Zetian leaned on the balcony, meditating quietly. After the weather cleared up, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Li Zetian's mouth.

"Humanity has too much unemployment, but I have a solution!"

In December, the Christmas season arrives.

The United States and even the Western world are making large purchases, and the price of the Andrew robot has been reduced to $3,000. Due to the expansion of production scale and the improvement of production technology, the manufacturing cost of Andrew robots has been greatly reduced, to approximately US$2,500. Therefore, even if you sell it for $3,000, you can still make $500.

However, users don’t know.

As soon as they saw the price reduction of the Andrew robot, they rushed to the store to buy it.

For everyone, Robot Land is undoubtedly the best family gift this Christmas.

Soon, this year passed.

In January 2012, the financial statements of major companies last year were released.

Li Zetian took a general glance and was very satisfied. The total revenue exceeded 8.6 trillion US dollars and the net profit was more than 925 billion US dollars. If it were not for the increased efforts in technology research and development, the net profit would definitely exceed 1 trillion US dollars!

Money begets money, and the money earned will continue to be used to invest or acquire companies.

Nowadays, Li Zetian's business empire is getting bigger and bigger, and it is undergoing huge changes every day.

In the past two years, Li Zetian's penetration into various Asian countries, including India, Indonesia, Vietnam and other countries, has reached a very terrifying level. The Internet, finance, energy, electricity, food, real estate, industrial manufacturing, etc. are simply pervasive.

In addition, Li Zetian also vigorously developed mining in various African countries and acquired many mines. In fact, the price to buy these mines is very cheap. You must know that after the subprime financial crisis, global mineral prices plummeted and countless mining companies went bankrupt. At that time, the world's three largest mining companies Vale, BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto Group's market value A big drop, less than half of what it was before.

As Li Zetian integrated the automotive industry, robots and the rise of artificial intelligence homes, the mining market quickly picked up. The mines Li Zetian bought have now increased in value more than ten times.

However, even if Cronos Industries becomes the world's largest mining company, it still cannot satisfy the companies under Li Zetian's name.

…

The Christmas holidays are over and people are returning to work.

Li Zetian frequently visits Tesla Motors and Gene Technology to pay attention to the status of autonomous vehicles and brainwave technology.

On February 10, Tesla’s autonomous car manufacturing factory was completed.

This factory was built in Los Angeles and covers an area of ​​approximately 10 million square meters. It is the second largest factory in the world.

The world's largest factory is the Cronos Industrial Artificial Intelligence Robot Manufacturing Factory in Nevada, covering an area of ​​15 million square meters.

Starting from February 15th, Tesla's unmanned vehicles began mass production, half a month ahead of schedule.

This time, two models will be produced, one is the luxury convertible Tesla Roadster X, priced at US$500,000, and the other is the high-performance sedan Tesla Model 1, priced at US$100,000.

Both cars are very expensive, but there is no way. They are both electric cars and autonomous cars, and the manufacturing costs are so high.

On March 10, Tesla Motors was preparing to advertise. The company's CEO suddenly called Li Zetian and said that he wanted to ask Eve to be the advertising spokesperson for Tesla Motors.

Artificial intelligence robots endorse autonomous cars?

Li Zetian was startled at the time, but then agreed, thinking the idea was quite good.

Starting from April 1st, Tesla’s self-driving car advertisements have been posted on various publicity channels, including TV stations, the Internet, newspapers, bus stops, etc.

After seeing these advertisements, people couldn't help but be surprised. Whether it was Tesla Roadster X or Tesla Model 1, they were both extremely stunning.

However, the expensive price is prohibitive.

"It would be great if I had a car like this..."

"Sexy girl, please take me away with you. As long as you have such a luxury car, I will be your girlfriend!"

"Holy shit, it's so cool!!! As soon as Eve walked out of the company building, the autonomous car drove out of the garage and finally stopped in front of Eve!"

"Tsk, tsk, that's really cool!"

"Well, when I'm taking a walk, the Tesla driverless car can still follow me slowly. Let me go. This is amazing!"

Tesla's unmanned cars have caused a sensation in the United States, but President Gall and others are not happy, and they vaguely feel a crisis is coming.

…

On June 1, Tesla’s driverless car was officially launched.

There are still many wealthy people around the world. In one week, Tesla Motors sold 15,000 Tesla Roadster X and 263,000 Tesla Model 1 units.

The sales volume is so good that people are naturally jealous.

Many car companies are behind the wheel of Tesla's autonomous cars, claiming that they are unsafe and prone to accidents.

Li Zetian disdained it.

Now that so many people have purchased autonomous vehicles, as long as word-of-mouth publicity spreads, these rumors will be self-defeating.

When people have full trust in driverless cars, Uber driverless car hailing services will be fully launched. Drivers who have previously cooperated with Uber will only choose to stay with better reputations. Even if users don't choose autonomous vehicles, they have another choice.

Japan, Toyota Motor.

"Bagaya Road!!! Our Toyota cars are the best cars, we cannot let Tesla take away our market position, especially in the US market! Let the development team develop autonomous cars quickly!!!" An old man in his sixties shouted loudly at everyone in the conference room.

"Yes, yes!" Everyone nodded solemnly. Is it so easy to develop an unmanned car...? However, Toyota's technology and foundation are too strong, and there is support from the Japanese consortium behind it, so everyone still has some confidence. In fact, Toyota Motor Company is also developing autonomous vehicles. After all, autonomous vehicles have been very popular in recent years.

The next day, Japan's Toyota held a press conference and announced Toyota's autonomous car concept car.

Toyota Motor Company thinks so. Although I have not yet developed an autonomous car, I am the industry leader after all and have a huge user base, that is, many fans. As long as I say that Toyota's autonomous car will be developed soon, , then these users will not buy Tesla driverless cars immediately, but will wait until Toyota driverless cars are developed before buying Toyota driverless cars.

In this way, Tesla's sales of autonomous cars can be greatly reduced.

"Wow, Toyota is about to develop driverless cars. This is great! I have been driving Toyota cars before and I think Toyota cars are very good!"

"I originally planned to buy a Tesla driverless car, but I just thought it was very expensive and was hesitant. Since Toyota is also going to launch a driverless car, I'd better wait and see. Toyota cars have always been high-quality and affordable, and they are the best-selling cars in the United States. The car, presumably, will be cheaper than Tesla cars.”

"Toyota is a major international brand, and it's guaranteed! How many years has Tesla Motors been established? It would be such a tragedy if the autonomous car had an accident..."

"..."

Li Zetian read the messages on the Internet and frowned.

"Toyota wants to fight with me, right? OK, come on, who's afraid of who? I not only want to develop driverless cars, but also develop 'Transformers'!!!"

When he thought of this, Li Zetian suddenly became inexplicably excited.

He naturally knew that with the current level of technology, it would be impossible to develop the "Transformers" in the movie, but it would be quite interesting to add artificial intelligence to an unmanned car so that it could speak and have a unique personality. . If possible in the future, we might not be able to develop cars that can turn into robots!

"If a BMW suddenly says, 'Don't touch me,' will it scare children?"

Li Zetian laughed unconsciously.

Immediately, Li Zetian called the CEO of Tesla Motors and told him what he meant, telling him to contact Cronos Industries and then hold a press conference to announce the matter.

Within two weeks, the matter was settled, and a press conference was held the next day.
