My science and technology museum

Before attending the World Artificial Intelligence Conference, Xu Lei thought it had high standards in the industry. After all, the people invited were the heads of world-renowned Internet technology companies and elite industry academicians.

But after the opening ceremony, he realized that the entire conference seemed to be just that.

Except for domestic companies such as Penguin's Mato Qiandu and Li Yan who attended the conference in person, other companies such as Gugetras attended the conference online.

It's somewhat disappointing.

But now that it’s here, the Lingsi artificial intelligence chip must take this opportunity to be announced.

For something like influence, the more new exhibits you can earn, the sooner you can unlock them.

…

"Let's invite future technology representatives to the stage. The speaker this time is..."

After Liang Fuxing, who was sitting in the audience, heard this, he immediately stood up, straightened his clothes, and turned to signal to Xu Lei next to him.

"Mr. Xu, let's go up."

"Um."

In response, Xu Lei just nodded slightly, with no emotion on his face.

Because he saw the absolute confidence in Liang Fuxing's eyes, it was destined that today's conference would be the home of Lingsi artificial intelligence chips.

But it is worth mentioning that just after Liang Fuxing walked onto the stage, Li Yan, the chairman of Qiandu Company, who was also sitting below, had a face full of disappointment, as if something failed to meet his expectations.

Although Xu Lei didn't notice this scene, Ma Teng happened to see it.

Out of curiosity, I couldn't help but take the initiative to ask.

"Chairman Li seems to be disappointed. Wouldn't it be more conducive to the development of artificial intelligence if Future Technology can participate in this conference?"

Although artificial intelligence is hailed as the future development trend of the industry, and large companies will basically conduct research and layout in advance, Penguin is definitely weaker than Xiaoqian, the artificial intelligence project owned by Qiandu.

Originally, Ma Teng did not need to attend a conference like this in person. He could choose to attend online or send representatives.

It was only after seeing that Xu Lei would participate in person that I changed my mind.

I want to take this opportunity to contact Xu Lei offline to see if I can build a closer relationship between the two parties and eliminate the small friction caused by the Magic Star Engine licensing service fee.

As we all know, Future Technology's artificial intelligence technology is in a leading position in the world, otherwise it would not be easy to develop an intelligent tool with a high degree of autonomy such as the Magic Star Engine Yinglong chip design software.

Qiandu should be happy to have such a company sharing amazing experiences.

You know, there aren't many opportunities like this.

Li Yan did not conceal anything when faced with Ma Teng's inquiry. He went straight to the point and said, "It's really surprising that Future Technology can participate in this conference. It's a pity that their CEO Xu didn't come on stage to give a lecture. I'm afraid I won't hear the surprising news." News.”

"This is true."

Knowing the reason for Li Yan's disappointment, Ma Teng agreed and said nothing more.

The main reason is that they don't know Liang Fuxing. When they see Xu Lei sending such a person to the stage to give a lecture, they will naturally think in a bad direction.

I think that Future Technology’s participation in this conference did not bring anything. It was just like those overseas companies that attended online, just casually dealing with it.

And when time passed by little by little, after Liang Fuxing finished speaking the foreshadowing words, he finally brought up the topic.

"The improvement of artificial intelligence level cannot be separated from the support of computing power. For this reason, our company has specially developed this Linsi artificial intelligence chip. It will be used in new large-scale intelligent data centers of future technology to promote the faster development of industry and technology. .”

And the moment he finished speaking, the specific data of the Lingsi chip appeared on the big screen behind him.

Initially, many company representatives did not take Liang Fuxing's words too seriously until they saw the specific data displayed on the screen and their eyes widened.

I couldn't help but gasp.

Especially Li Yan, his entire face was extremely shocked.

"Hiss~"

"It's actually a 1-nanometer artificial intelligence chip. Future Technology is really making a big deal this time!"

In order to achieve technological leadership in the field of artificial intelligence, Qiandu designed its own artificial intelligence chip as early as two years ago. However, compared with Lingsi at this time, the gap in performance and power consumption was simply as big as heaven and earth.

The key point is that everyone now knows that although Xu Lei has conquered the 1-nanometer chip production process, due to the high cost and price, major manufacturers are still pursuing 3-nanometer chips.

This is why 1-nanometer chips have not yet come out.

Unexpectedly, it was Future Technology that finally designed it, and it was an artificial intelligence chip.

A rough estimate is that to use chips of this size in a large data center, the investment required to build them all would be at least over 10 billion.

This shows that future science and technology attaches great importance to the development of artificial intelligence technology.

Can be sure.

After this conference is over, I believe that major companies will increase their investment in the field of artificial intelligence to prevent them from being too far apart from future technologies and eventually being eliminated by the times.

As for the audience watching the conference content online at this moment, they were very excited after seeing that the domestic 1-nanometer chip was finally released.

They were all posting comments in the live broadcast room.

"I thought everyone was willing to develop a 1-nanometer chip, but I didn't expect it to come out."

“Future technology is awesome!”

"Chips with such high cost will only be used to build data centers in the future. Mr. Xu is indeed serious about developing technology."

"How can technology develop without early investment? I support Mr. Xu."

"Speaking of which, we have to mention Ali's Damo Academy. They say they are producing research results but they don't invest money."

…

The World Artificial Intelligence Conference lasted for three days, but because Future Technology stole the show on the first day, it did not participate in the next two days of the conference.

Return to Binjiang City the next day.

However, as the popularity of Linsi artificial intelligence chips gradually spreads around the world, companies conducting artificial intelligence research, both domestic and overseas, have increased their investment in funds and developed their own new generation artificial intelligence chips.

No one wants to fall behind in this field.

Licanife Island.

Jingshan City.

In the Guge headquarters building, Wu Kangsheng, who is responsible for the development of artificial intelligence Alpha, is currently in Chairman Ellis's office, reporting on the situation of Linsi artificial intelligence chips.

"The latest artificial intelligence chip launched by Future Technology uses 1 nanometer specifications. I am afraid that once their data center is completed, its artificial intelligence will become more powerful and can be used in more scenarios."

Since the last time he failed to decipher the virus program, Wu Kangsheng has been somewhat depressed since returning to the company.

The artificial intelligence developed by future technology was like an unshakable boulder, which became a shadow in his heart, so much so that he lost confidence in the Alpha he developed.

Especially now that Future Technology has launched a 1-nanometer artificial intelligence chip, I am afraid that its improvement speed will increase by leaps and bounds.

But just when Wu Kangsheng's eyes gradually dimmed, he saw Ellis getting up from his seat and walking over, asking a question in a deep voice.

"Do you think our Alpha is no match for the artificial intelligence of future technology?"

"this……"

Wu Kangsheng obviously did not expect Ellis to ask such a question. Although his expression was a little surprised, he still answered truthfully.

"Future technology can decipher the key, and the online Star Shield now has more than 100 million users worldwide. Our Alpha really cannot do this."

Ellis shook his head at this answer.

Then Wu Kangsheng explained with doubts on his face: "According to their old saying, there are specialties in the arts. The artificial intelligence developed by future technology may be very powerful in programming and data calculation, but if it is applied to real-life human-computer interaction scenarios, I’m afraid it’s not as good as our Alpha.”

"As an Alpha developer, you should remain confident in your work."

As Ellis's words reached his ears, Wu Kangsheng's passion was like a match being struck, tending to be rekindled.

But in the next second, he seemed to think of something again and hurriedly said it.

"Boss, I am naturally very confident in Alpha, but after the Lingsi chip is put into use, I am afraid that there will be a big gap between us and the computing power of future technologies."

“If this gap is not closed, we will only fall behind.”

"Do not worry."

Regarding Wu Kangsheng's concerns, Ellis remained calm, and then responded unhurriedly: "According to the latest news I got, Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Sanxing have reached a cooperation and will make every effort to conquer carbon-based chip technology, and have already Considerable progress has been made.”

"Carbon-based chip?"

When Wu Kangsheng heard this, he was startled for a moment, and then fell into ecstasy. Unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, he hurriedly said: "It's really great. As long as we can conquer the carbon-based chip manufacturing technology, we can regain our absolute position in the semiconductor market."

At present, in the semiconductor industry, the development of silicon-based chips has reached its limit.

Although 3nm chips can meet the needs of most scenarios, the performance of the chips is limited and new breakthroughs cannot be made.

Carbon-based chips are a new way out.

Under the same specifications, the performance of carbon-based chips is significantly higher than that of silicon-based chips. If a technological breakthrough can be achieved and mass production is achieved, it will inevitably cause new changes in the industry pattern.

By then, they will use carbon-based chips to increase the computing power of artificial intelligence, and future technology will no longer be a concern.

It can be said that Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Sanxing were originally competitors, each mastering the most advanced chip manufacturing processes. However, the emergence of Loongson Group caused them to directly lose the OEM production market for high-end chips.

To break this dilemma, choosing cooperation is the smartest way.

After all, the exchange of technologies will definitely greatly improve the progress of research and development, which will help it regain control of the semiconductor market.

But while Wu Kangsheng was still immersed in this joy, he only heard Ellis give instructions again: "I forgot to tell you that we have reached a cooperation with Tesla and will use artificial intelligence Alpha to build a truly driverless smart phone." Car, you will lead the team to the Magic City to contact their person in charge."

Thanks to Su Jin for the 100-point reward!
