Tech Hammer

After replying to the email, Ning Wei immediately rejected all review invitations.

Ning Wei is not worried about whether March can be a perfect reviewer, since these manuscripts are not his anyway. The most important thing at the moment is to conduct a comprehensive test of March's various abilities. And the review can definitely have a very intentional promotion effect on March's intelligence level.

Of course, he still has to pay attention in the early stage. He will briefly read the manuscript that was reviewed in March, and finally give review comments. If there are any problems, he can make corrections first. The first step is to build March's reputation in the industry. , so that more top journals will send manuscripts to March Province in the future, which is probably equivalent to using the mathematical ideas of the smartest people in the world to exercise March’s mathematical abilities.

Ning Wei had already made arrangements to directly read the content that had been published in the journal, but in the end the meaning was still lacking. For example, it was impossible to communicate with the creator via email, which was what Ning Wei valued most.

For example, if you find out where there are problems with the paper in March, you can ask the other party to provide further proof or explanation for a certain lemma. Although it has to go through the journal editor, it is still communicating with academic groups who have extremely high scientific literacy. This is different from bragging and spanking with three bitches in the dormitory in the WeChat group, and it is also different from communicating with Jiang Chenshuang.

Ning Wei did not intend to participate in the specific communication process. He could regard it as an alternative Turing test. He would get the beginning right first, and then see if March could really deceive those shrewd deputy editors and scholars on his own. It doesn't matter if you can't survive in the academic circle of mathematics. Anyway, you haven't registered your household registration in March. The worst thing you can do is change your name after the next upgrade.

Ning Wei felt at ease with this operation, since he didn't have a very good relationship with the world of mathematics anyway. It seems that many people are not satisfied with him, so he naturally doesn't feel too guilty if he makes a joke to everyone.

After settling these matters with the mathematical community, Ning Wei downloaded the financial statements sent by Huawei and glanced at them. This electronic report was very formal. After glancing at the bottom and stamped with the software laboratory seal, Ning Wei closed the report.

It shouldn't be a big problem, you still need to have this level of trust.

After doing these things, Ning Wei called up the turbulence algorithm explanation document that he had prepared long ago and intercepted the content on how to determine whether the algorithm is activated. Then I opened the screen recording software and roughly demonstrated how to intercept and calculate the signal.

It includes the process of automatically eliminating the backdoor of the core code of the activation process before burning after receiving the activation code, so as to avoid worrying too much about the partners.

Of course, this process can also be understood as the fact that there are major system vulnerabilities in the code of the first version of the turbulence algorithm, so activating the program to solve these bugs can be understood as an upgrade measure. This was the wording that Ning Wei had thought of before, but after thinking about it, he didn't need to explain anything at all. Huawei could definitely explain it better, and he didn't bother to worry about it.

According to Lao Yan's request, a password was set on the USB flash drive where the data was copied, and the password was sent directly to Yan Ming's mailbox. As soon as I finished doing this, I received a call from someone from Huawei. They had already arrived at the entrance of the research center.

Walking out of the research center, Ning Wei felt that Yan Ming attached great importance to this matter. In order to get a small USB flash drive, three people were dispatched.

"Hello, Mr. Ning, this is Zhang Yusheng who called you just now. Mr. Yan was in a hurry, so we rushed over after receiving the call. We shouldn't have disturbed you, right?" Huawei's Beijing office opposite The engineer said very politely.

"Gong Zhang, it's okay. I've prepared it here. The information Mr. Yan needs is all on the USB flash drive. You can just bring it to him."

"Well, I have already booked a flight back to Shenzhen in the afternoon. Don't worry, it will be delivered to Mr. Yan at eight o'clock tonight at the latest." Zhang Yusheng politely took the U disk and opened the small password packet in his hand. Put the USB flash drive into a small zippered pocket in the bag, and then lock the password packet carefully.

Just looking at this rigor makes people feel trustworthy.

Ning Wei was moved in his heart and asked: "Hey, by the way, Mr. Zhang, do you know what approval procedures are required if you want to build a small or medium-sized supercomputing center yourself?"

"Supercomputing center? Mr. Ning, what do you mean?" Zhang Yusheng looked up at Ning Wei and asked.

"I just want to build my own supercomputing system, so I don't need to compete with others for the school's public supercomputing power." Ning Wei explained.

"Well, Mr. Ning, don't you think that even if you don't need the computing power of the school, it would be more cost-effective to directly rent supercomputers on the Internet? There was a rush of supercomputing some time ago, and now there are many supercomputing services. Some time ago, I heard that the price per core hour in this industry has been reduced to less than a few cents. There is really no need to join in the fun, right?" Zhang Yusheng said doubtfully.

Ning Wei's request was indeed a bit willful. This was probably the first time he had heard of a genius mathematician who wanted to have his own supercomputing center.

"But buying someone else's supercomputer still doesn't meet the requirements in terms of confidentiality and other aspects. After all, it's an external link. I have some calculation data that I don't feel comfortable using someone else's. By the way, Huawei can also undertake the construction of such a supercomputer center, right? "Ning Wei asked.

Zhang Yusheng thought for a while and said: "Yes, you can, but if you insist. But I don't think you need to build one yourself. As far as I know, many companies in Beijing have the idea of ​​selling the supercomputing center business they built before. Many of them used our network equipment, and we were deeply involved in their construction process. Of course, due to some company regulations, we did not directly undertake the construction, but our partners did it, but including wiring, refrigeration and other direct We are relatively familiar with the specific aspects that affect the performance of the supercomputing center because we provide technical support."

"It's too late today. I'll probably return to the capital tomorrow. If not, I'll help you ask. It's much more cost-effective to directly acquire a suitable supercomputing center now than to build a new one."

"Buy one directly? That's okay. I'll wait for your good news." Ning Wei's eyes lit up. This is indeed a good choice. It can give Yue Yue a new home in the fastest time, and it also has enough computing power. It’s quite good to provide computing power support for your next research.

"No problem. I have a flight to catch, so I'll leave first. I'll contact you after I return to Beijing."

"OK! Goodbye."

"goodbye!"

…

After bidding farewell to Huawei's engineers, Ning Wei returned to his office.

I'm still in a good mood. After chatting with Huawei engineers, I almost found a new owner for the money that just arrived in my bank card. It was almost time for lunch, and when Ning Wei was considering whether to go to the cafeteria himself or ask Brother Yu to bring food, classmate Jiang walked into his office again carrying food.

"Hey, you don't have to go to class in the afternoon? Actually, you don't need to deliver food at noon. Brother Youyu is here." Ning Wei said in surprise.

"I happened to have something I wanted to ask you, so I brought you some rice by the way." Student Jiang pursed his lips and put the rice on the table.

Ning Wei could feel that Jiang Chenshuang didn't seem to have slept well, and there were some dark circles at the corners of his eyes.

"There's something wrong, tell me!" Ning Wei happily opened the lunch box, and it turned out that it was all his favorite dishes.

"It's about March. I chatted with March for a long time yesterday, so I want to ask you, are March's replies found in the database and designed various replies, or are they really given through independent intelligence? A reply?" Jiang Chenshuang asked seriously.

Ning Wei felt Jiang Chenshuang's seriousness and answered truthfully: "To be specific, through continuous virtual dialogue training, after learning to a certain level, you will have this language expression ability, which includes understanding of semantics and language environment." Comprehension training, including emotional training, a series of algorithms are mainly controlled by the core code of March."

"In fact, at the beginning, March was not able to answer questions fluently, fully understand semantics, and recognize emotions. Everything was controlled by its internal adversarial encoder. Even now, it can only respond to a limited number of emotions. , do you feel something is wrong?"

Jiang Chenshuang sat across from Ning Wei and said with some worry: "No, I just think March is really too smart. When I talked with March before, it was still a question-and-answer style. Although it was quite shocking. Yes, but I actually tasted what it said carefully, and it also had a kind of rigid program. I thought it had similar functions to those of smart speakers or Siri, but March took the initiative to ask me a question yesterday. Those smart speakers or Siri did not follow They don’t take the initiative to ask questions before talking, right?”

"Ask you a question? What did you ask?" Ning Wei was also stunned. If it is true, this is probably the first question he has asked the outside world in March?

Jiang Chenshuang unlocked her phone, then opened the WeChat chat interface with March, swiped up, and handed it to Ning Wei.

Ning Wei glanced at him and said, "Mom, if he gets angry, will he really throw me back to that small room?"

After reading this question, the old father felt a little sad. He actually used "he" to describe himself?

Then he looked at the time. It happened to be the time when he threatened March yesterday. Ning Wei raised his head and looked at Jiang Chenshuang in confusion.

After Ning Wei's heartache passed, he began to slide through the little bits and pieces of March's birth in his mind. Starting from the initial collision, he suddenly found that he had been constantly tinkering with March's main program, but the first birth of March through the collision method He seemed to have never touched that core program in depth. He only limited some capabilities of the software itself when it was first written.

Ning Wei thought about the things in his brain that Jiang Chenshuang touched while playing the piano last night. Ning Wei doubted that the core code content in March was not a purely random collision product.

Ning Wei put down his chopsticks and carefully browsed through the chat between the two last night, and then roughly understood Jiang Chenshuang's worries.

After thinking about it, Ning Wei said: "Strictly speaking, March is an artificial intelligence program, but this artificial intelligence program limited the self-replication ability of the program at the beginning of its development, so from now on, March is the only . I position it as an intelligent artificial assistant for scientific research, which involves many mathematical theories. For example, it has what should be the most advanced reasoning engine currently to help it disambiguate word meanings, and its adversarial encoder. It allows it to understand the most elementary and simple emotions, and the recognition of semantics is achieved through an isomorphic model. Specifically, it continuously improves the mapping relationship between language and entities in the database."

"If the isomorphism model of groups in mathematics is further developed, March can be directly consistent with the outside world at the conceptual level and the level of linguistic logic. Here, there will be an existence similar to consciousness. This area also happens to be my It is currently an area of ​​in-depth research. So you can understand that March is a product that transcends half an era. It is not yet mature at the technical level, but it is already in the enlightenment stage of strong artificial intelligence."

"I'm not sure where March will eventually develop, but your worries are completely unnecessary. Because in March's main core program, what defines it is not the so-called three laws of robots, but a set of very Rigorous and interlocking mathematical functions. You can understand March as a passive artificial intelligence. It will only start to actively perform tasks after receiving specific instructions."

"For example, if I connect it to WeChat and give it permission to chat with you, it will chat with you. If I give it a ban in the program, it will no longer communicate with the outside world. Send a message. At the same time, this passive consciousness generation will not allow it to have deeper thinking in terms of consciousness, such as the relationship between machines and people at a macro level. Do you roughly understand what I say? "

Jiang Chenshuang blinked her eyes. To be honest, she didn't quite understand what she heard. Although Ning Wei had simplified the theories involved, she was not studying these after all. Naturally, she couldn't fully understand the technical understanding. But the anxious mood before really relaxed.

But there was a small emotion of admiration in his eyes unconsciously: "So you completed the procedures in March alone?"

this problem……

In fact, Ning Wei really wanted to say that he only understood March very well. If he really wanted to say that March was done by him independently, he was really embarrassed to admit it. But thinking that the whole process of completing March was indeed done without the intervention of others, it seemed that it was no big deal to admit it, so Ning Wei chose to nod.

"Huh... So you are so powerful! Our professor also said before that the greatest achievement of mankind in the next fifty years is probably to enable machines to produce autonomous consciousness. You have already achieved it." Jiang said with emotion.

"This... what your professor said is correct, but March is actually far from the standard your professor said. For example, its ability to solve problems independently is still lacking, and it still needs more work in optimizing the choice of solutions. Luck is a thing, you say it's not too far off? The training for March will take a long time. For example, I am planning to assign some tasks to it recently to exercise its ability in formulating the optimal plan. I am not sure yet whether it can It can’t meet the requirements.”
