The End of Technology

After hanging up the phone, Dominette Duncan was in a tangled mood, especially when the news that Ning Zi won the Nobel Prize again was made public the next day, and the whole world was shocked.

This operation of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has indeed surprised many people, and those who laughed most happily were probably those magical BC companies. After all, the more showy the performance, the more unexpected it will be. No one expected that Ning Zi could win two awards at once, in physics and science at the same time.

The key is that even after the uproar in the academic community, they can't find any fault. The biggest problem for the university is that it has to make another banner. All kinds of celebrations and sourness are naturally inevitable.

After all, it’s nothing to win a Nobel Prize. But to win two prizes in the same year and make people speechless is to be the only one.

Einstein only won it once.

But for Ning Zi...that's probably it.

The recognition of winning a prize is not something that everyone feels extremely excited about. The main thing is that if you take more, you won’t be curious about it.

In comparison, for Ning Zi, winning the Fields Medal in Mathematics was more exciting. It’s just that the experience was relatively quick that time, and I didn’t even get to attend the dinner.

Of course, it was similar this time. Anyway, Ning Zi had no connection with the dinner party.

In March's terms, as long as Xiao Ning leaves the country, he is considered to be in danger alone, and it is still a kind of danger that even this super kitten is difficult to save.

Especially at this time, it is the darkness before dawn. If you wait a little longer, another village will see a bright future.

Ning Zi naturally believed in March's judgment.

Fortunately, his life is actually quite fulfilling and he is well protected. Whether he goes to a high-profile dinner or not is not a big deal to him.

Even if many people in the surrounding area would jump out and criticize the research and development base of TiDa, and even say that it is a threat to all mankind, some people would naturally refute it.

But there is still some impact.

There are many rumors widely circulated on the Internet, saying that Ningyuan Research Center and the R\u0026D Base of Sports University have been controlled by artificial intelligence. It is known that artificial intelligence may develop into extremely dangerous opponents. Artificial intelligence often becomes the biggest villain in movies. , attack the entire civilization.

Therefore, it can be concluded that all the research Ning Zi is currently doing may be extremely dangerous. It will gradually erode the development space of human beings, and one day even wipe out the entire human race like Skynet did. There is also a lot of supporting evidence. Both Youwei and Apple’s products use artificial intelligence products provided by Ningyuan, and Cisco’s current promotion of faster is even more proof.

The technology brought out can even replace programmers. You can imagine how far the self-developed technology has reached.

Not to mention that although the research content of the base is confidential, the actions of the Youwei Group cannot be completely confidential. Ever since Youwei Group set up a large-scale research department to start supporting robots, it is no secret that TiDa is researching robot strategies.

Not to mention that it was later revealed that Ning Zi had requested some of Boston Dynamics’ latest research data during negotiations with a number of companies on turbulence algorithms. There are definitely not many engineers in the world who can write algorithms related to machine motion. They can be counted on at most four hands, and two of them were poached by Youwei Group with high salaries.

The above information can be easily analyzed. The research and development base of the University is not only researching spacecraft, but also researching robot technology. Coupled with the artificial intelligence technology that the outside world has no idea how far it has developed, this has also made many people on the Internet Conspiracy theories seem especially real.

Many people also began to secretly clamor for the university to disclose the specific research and development content of the research base. It even required the group to disclose the details of its cooperation with the R\u0026D base of Sports University.

Yes, although the Nobel Prize was awarded to Ning Zi, which brought Ning Zi's reputation in the academic world to a higher level, concerns about such talented people are growing. After all, the earth belongs to all mankind, and the safety of artificial intelligence has always been a matter of opinion.

If machines can really produce emotions and feelings similar to those of humans, then it won’t be surprising if they can do anything. The plot of science fiction in which machines destroy the world may not necessarily happen. After all, human beings are also very good at eliminating thoughts that are not against themselves under the banner of doing good for others. Using oneself to judge others, no one can give a final conclusion as to whether a machine will do this.

However, no matter how loud the online discussion is, it is difficult to succeed.

Because after everyone's research, they discovered that the construction of the R\u0026D base of Ti University was basically invested and constructed by Ning Zi personally.

Personal investment means that no country's R\u0026D funds are taken up. Naturally, no one has the confidence to let the University's R\u0026D base announce various technical details and R\u0026D progress. Even if these remarks are recognized by some academic leaders, it will not work.

Not to mention that Ning Zi never fights alone.

Any worries disappeared after the reaction.

As for Youwei Group, they will not pay attention to these requests.

This is one of the benefits of not being listed.

There is no listing and financing, which means that there is no need to be responsible to some boring shareholders, and naturally there is no obligation to consult and announce the company's decisions. Any requests and suggestions online can be regarded as farts. So whether it is making mobile phones, chips, or robots, the company's decision-makers do not need to be responsible to countless shareholders.

Therefore, no matter how much commotion there is on the Internet, it does not affect the peace inside the base.

After Ning Zi won the award, the Space Academy continued to hold classes quietly. The heads of each laboratory still selected various scientific research tasks on the intranet every day, and then completed them step by step to accumulate points. After all, these points can not only upgrade the laboratory and replace various laboratory equipment, but it is said that they can also be prioritized in the space laboratory in the future. For these researchers, it is an extremely valuable resource.

Not to mention going to do a laboratory in person, having a laboratory of one's own in space is different from ordinary people. Moreover, various cooperations in the future will definitely be softened. The most important thing is the release of negative mass anti-gravity materials, which gives everyone full confidence.

Although Ning Zi said that he would send all these children to space to study in their junior year at the Space Academy, he was still somewhat skeptical. However, he is optimistic that the base will have large-scale space buildings in about ten years.

And everyone is not too old. Ten years from now, most of the main laboratory leaders will be in their fifties. Basically, it can be described as being in the prime of life. If there are no accidents, everyone can continue to work for more than ten or twenty years.

At this time, the status gap emerges.

For example, if you don’t have your own laboratory in space to be evaluated as an academician in the future, would you be embarrassed to participate in the evaluation?

So no matter how much controversy there is outside, at least internal unity is no problem.

Of course, there have been situations where internal leaks may have occurred, but there is a set of effective and strict disciplines to control them. The most important thing is that any leakage channels are basically blocked. After a few typical examples are severely punished, any evil behavior can be eliminated. Stopped.

March must be praised again for this.

All working researchers have signed relevant confidentiality agreements. According to the contents of the confidentiality agreement, it can also intervene in the monitoring of all information that may involve confidentiality matters, so naturally nothing will slip through the net. In addition, there is no such thing as human relations in March, so even if there is any internal human relations, it will basically have no effect when it comes to Ning Jue.

He should be fired and should be held accountable. Therefore, no matter how violent the outside world is, it will hardly affect the internal research progress.

Of course, the most important thing is that March knows very well which units the latest R\u0026D information should be disclosed to, and to what extent it should be disclosed, so that mutual trust can be maintained without causing any crisis of trust, etc. Just right.

In addition, the layout of the entire industrial chain that was gradually unveiled in March seems to be just the research and development of the base, but in fact it is a layout of hundreds of thousands of assembly lines across the country, silently supported by millions of matching jobs, and in addition Apple is among them, laying out the global industrial chain.

Through these layouts, the entire interest chain of upstream and downstream manufacturers is firmly bound together, and through various authorized technology upgrade measures, the entire interest chain is made more stable. The most important thing is that the basic payment is simple, the price offered is fair, the quality requirements are transparent, and the authority of all handling personnel is tightly restricted. It is not only efficient, but also guarantees the interests of each partner manufacturer to the greatest extent.

In short, a series of measures have maximized resource utilization, and at the same time, through various interest allocation models, all doubts on the network have been spontaneously attacked, and even disappeared.

The attack pattern that might have caused chaos in the system passed so quietly that many people involved in the situation did not even feel it.

Also in this year, Ning Ji's name was added to the list of academicians of the two Chinese academies. Became a glorious Chinese double academician.

Although some people objected during the process, believing that Ning Zi should disclose more technical details in order to receive this honor, the objections were eventually suppressed. Being an academician is beneficial. When it comes to the allocation of larger resources, you can have a lot more say.

Of course, March also puts a good time limit on the progress of the project.

In November 2019, when the students of the Space Academy were preparing for the midterm exam and the dean’s name appeared on the list of additional academicians, China’s first generation self-propelled engineering robot was officially prototyped, the N1 humanoid robot. It was officially launched on the same day.

Of course, at this moment, most people have no idea what kind of huge changes this news that has not yet been officially announced will bring to human society.

…

November 13, 2019, China, Yanbei Sports University large-scale scientific research base.

The weather in Beijing has already begun to turn cold in November, and the lush green Sophora japonica trees along the roads in the past have lost their appearance, revealing their bare trunks. However, the various large trees in the base still look lush and green, especially the many transplanted ginkgo trees, whose leaves have turned golden and are scattered all over the ground, giving them a different kind of beauty.

Having just gone through two security checks, Ge Dongshu, who was sitting in the car, couldn't help but take a second look at the noisy yard beside the road.

At this time, the car was driving on the road outside the walls of the Space Academy in the base. This was also the busiest place after his car entered the base. Across the courtyard wall is the school's basketball court. The youthful cheers coming from inside give this solemn scientific research base a youthful color, and also bring more vitality to this heavy late autumn. .

"It's better to be young. By the way, Mr. Dou, now that we are done with our work this time, it's time for us to organize a few basketball games internally. Set up more prizes so that everyone can relax." Ge Dongshu withdrew his gaze and rushed The man next to him sighed.

The Dou Gong mentioned by Ge Dongshu looks to be in his thirties, with messy hair and a pair of plastic black-rimmed glasses. Judging from the thickness of the lenses, it can be seen that the prescription is definitely not low. His expression looks a bit dull, but People who really know him would never describe him as dull.

In fact, if you put aside some talented people, this Dou Gong is also a rare genius in this world.

There are not many people in the world who can design algorithms for bipedal robots, and this engineer Dou is one of them.

Not only that, the algorithm he designed was also approved by Ning Ju. Being one of the chief designers of the underlying algorithm for the N1 self-propelled humanoid robot is enough to prove his ability. This is also the reason why Ge Dongshu specially brought Mr. Dou with him to the meeting this time.

But having said that, it’s really hard to say who will take whom.

Although Ge Dongshu has made further progress in the past two years and has become the second most influential person recognized by the entire Youwei Group, when it comes to robotics technology, it is obvious that Dou Gong has more say.

"I don't know much about basketball, but I don't need to decide what activities the group holds." Dou Liaozhen took off his eyes, wiped them with his sleeves, and said slowly.

Seeing such an informal manner by accident, Ge Dongshu subconsciously looked away.

Relatively speaking, he still prefers the elegant academic school like Ning Zi.

But then again, the technical executive in front of me now earns the most money for the group. He was hired with an eight-figure salary every year. Even if his life is a little informal, there is nothing to criticize.

"Forehead……"

"Although basketball is also good, if a programming competition is held, people may be more interested."

"Programming has become lonely." Hearing this topic, Ge Dongshu sighed again.

"I can't say that completely. I've tried Faster, but it's still impossible to completely replace humans. Relatively speaking, it's still a bit stupid. It only achieves the best in gathering resources, but if you want to do real programming, it's not That's great." Dou Liaozhen said seriously.

"Oh, then when you meet Ning Zi you can talk to him about this matter. You also know that Faster was actually developed by Ning Zi."

These words made Dou Liozhen silent for a moment, then he shook his head and said: "Forget it, Mr. Ge, I'd better not mention it later. I have never won a debate with him."

Well, these words made Ge Dongshu suddenly feel that this engineer became more pleasing to the eye.

Hey, people.
