The End of Technology

The display of the N1 robot this time was different from what was shown to the elderly.

More specifically, the N1 robot was not allowed to show too many technical operations. The two-hour demonstration mainly focused on the N1 robot's movement ability and various balancing abilities. For example, they performed various human sports, such as skipping rope, pull-ups, push-ups, and football. The most exciting and high-end one was showing everyone a robot crossing a 200-meter military obstacle. The final result was very good, 1 minute and 37 seconds. .

This result is almost perfect for some age groups.

This also made Dou Liaozhen stunned.

How should I put it? He still has some self-awareness. The algorithm he designed really cannot be so powerful. Maybe you can jump with a skipping rope. As the designer of the key parts of the N1 robot, Dou Liao really knows some inside information and some of the latest materials used in the N1 robot. Therefore, this thing looks tall and sturdy, but in fact it is not heavy.

So it's natural to do some dexterous movements.

But crossing a two-hundred-meter military obstacle is exaggerated, and it can be done so quickly. This is no longer just an algorithm problem. There is also a calculation problem involved.

Dou Liao really felt that the N1 robot might have a calculation and transmission system that he didn't even know about, otherwise it would be almost impossible for his usual communication with the base to reach this level.

Even the engineers who were deeply involved in the motion engineering of this robot were shocked. You can imagine the mood of other big guys who watched the demonstration and did not understand the technology. They may not know the technical details of how it all happens, but it's clear that these people understand that it is difficult to achieve what they see.

As for the scenarios in which the robots demonstrated by the base will be useful in the future, it is a matter of opinion.

"Okay, that's the end of today's presentation. Please follow the staff to our No. 1 canteen for dinner later. By the way, we have a complete replay video of today's presentation process. If necessary, please wait. You can tell Director Zhuo, who is leading the team today."

Looking at the N1 robot below as it completed the 200-meter turnaround and finally recorded the results on the timer, Ning Zi, still wearing a white coat, calmly announced the end of today's 90-minute new product display.

For the guests invited today, there are still some unfinished things to say. Of course the feeling is different.

Some people see opportunities and profits, while others see threats.

But none of the big guys revealed their true thoughts. But one thing is probably the same feeling, and that is - the trip is worthwhile.

…

Outside the second floor, Tim Cook, who was the first to step out of the elevator, stopped at the door of the small building. He ignored Zhuo Mingqian beside him and turned to look at the people behind him.

Obviously he was waiting for someone, but Ning Zi was not with them.

But his purpose was soon exposed. When Ge Dongshu walked and chatted with the people around him and came to the door, Tim Cook took the initiative and said: "Mr. Ge, let's go for a walk together?"

Ge Dongshu thought for a while, immediately showed his face and nodded to Tim Cook, then turned to the people around him and said, "Mr. Xu, Mr. Cook has something to ask me. Why don't we talk later?"

"It's okay, Mr. Ge, please do your business first. We have many opportunities to get together. Mr. Cook is a guest from afar after all." The man next to him said politely.

Ge Dongshu nodded, and then strode to Tim Cook's side. Zhuo Mingqian also stopped wisely and walked with the people behind him, leaving space for the two of them to talk alone.

…

Someone took out his mobile phone and took a photo, which happened to capture the silhouettes of Ge Dongshu and Tim Cook looking at each other while communicating.

This is definitely a photo worthy of being on the cover of Time magazine.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these two people represent the two giants of the most high-end smartphone market in the modern world.

Yes, with the help of the various functions implemented by the two unique smart assistants, other brands in the high-end mobile phone market around the world have simply been unable to gain a foothold. At least so far, no corresponding smart products have appeared. Especially in the international market, the new generation of Apple and Youwei mobile phones can better match various faster applications, and there are almost no rivals in the entire North American and European markets.

Even the low-end mobile phone market has been gradually eroded by Apple, which has changed its system, and the products of the older generation from last year and the year before.

This situation has even attracted the attention of many departments in the European Union. The European Competition Commission, the European Antitrust Monitoring Agency, the European Electronic Communications and Information Regulatory Commission, and the German Federal Cartel Office have recently taken many actions to investigate the two cases. The company may be involved in antitrust actions.

Even Cisco is under investigation.

Investigations, lawsuits, huge fines…

There has been a lot of negative news about these two companies recently, but for now, the sales of both products are maintaining well.

But there is no way, there is really no substitute.

Whether it is a Samsung or other brand of mobile phone, there are corresponding smart assistants to replace the products of these two companies. More importantly, Faster brought by Cisco has built and integrated a huge pan-entertainment resource platform from news to audio, video, comics, novels, etc.

All personalized products developed by faster users can pay to use this huge resource library, which also includes countless individual users. This has created a de facto monopoly to some extent.

Think about it, when users can develop a simple and smooth network playback software by themselves, as long as they can pay a fee, they can purchase an interface and connect to Faster's audio and video database. Of course, if you want to play internal audio and video, you must additionally purchase the corresponding video content through monthly subscription or a la carte.

This user can even submit his own playback software to Faster's software database through the purchase interface for others to download and use. However, the logic of getting here has changed, because this kind of download does not help the user who uploaded the software to earn any economic profits.

On the contrary, because the purchased interface data is only bound to the original user's credit card, every customer who downloads this playback software needs to pay the software provider to have access.

In other words, according to Faster's logic, every software sharer in the platform software library is an out-and-out good person. Because this is equivalent to them paying others to use Faster's database and share resources.

Of course, good people can also set various conditions for downloading the software they upload.

Taking audio and video as an example again, a good person can limit the sharing of only a few movies recommended by him in the software when uploading, which means that he is willing to pay for all users who watch these movies through the faster platform; these good people can also It is stipulated that only users who are invited by him can download the software he uploads, which is probably equivalent to contributing these fees to relatives and friends; or the good people who share the software directly publish tasks on the platform, and only users who have completed the tasks can download their own software...

This series of means makes the entire faster platform more active than ever.

The sharing spirit of the Internet has been clearly played by Cisco.

It would be wrong to think that there are very few good people sharing software on the Internet. On the contrary, in the software sharing area of ​​Faster, there are so many such good people that it is shocking. No matter what the purpose is, tens of thousands of players with various purposes join the ranks of sharers every day. This also means that tens of thousands of various types of software appear in the sharing area.

Coupled with the search function on Faster that is no weaker than Google, those users who are unwilling to spend money on online platforms can almost find all kinds of genuine resources that are shared for free on software sharing platforms as long as they spend some patience and time.

In this way, a large-scale resource sharing platform where almost no one feels that they are at a disadvantage has begun to take shape.

Of course, it is not that simple to access faster, and not all systems can intervene.

So far, the mobile version of Faster only provides official interfaces for Apple's iOS and the promising Hongmeng system, while the computer version only provides corresponding interfaces for IOS, Hongmeng and Windows.

This also directly results in mobile phones and computers using other systems unable to participate in this feast.

The reason why mobile phones of other brands including Samsung, especially those of the Chinese brand, can still have certain sales abroad are mainly due to low enough prices and active help for users to switch to Hongmeng system and access the faster platform.

Of course, not all profits from the Faster platform belong to Cisco. Many companies including Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc., as well as many various resource providers relying on the platform, can share profits from it. Even so, the faster resource sharing platform has been subject to many lawsuits in just one year since its establishment.

For example, although it provided some technical support for the faster platform, Google filed as many as five lawsuits against Cisco's faster platform this year. Similarly, Facebook and Twitter each sued the faster platform three times.

From the opacity of background data to the opacity of various recommendation resource algorithms, this platform has clearly affected too many people. Many people have seen the trend of centralized monopoly of Internet resources, but they are helpless.

To put it bluntly, the success of the faster platform itself relies on the faster software, which can probably be understood as relying on the integration of Internet resources through artificial intelligence. Those resources are not the first thing everyone looks at, because there are too many channels for obtaining resources on the Internet.

But when people become accustomed to using faster, they simply cannot leave the platform.

After all, independent programming is almost equivalent to being able to completely break away from the shackles of developers, allowing the program to run completely according to one's own wishes. For example, the most important thing is that it can be completely free of advertisements. In other words, the cost of advertising for giant advertisers has become higher. This is probably the reason why Google, Twitter, and Face are always advertising on the platform.

After all, the rise in monthly active users of the Faster platform is really based on attracting the blood of the advertising alliances of these large companies.

Many customers have begun to explore using the faster platform to bypass middlemen and earn the price difference.

For example, be a good person on a software sharing platform.

It only needs to provide software that can use or watch various popular resources for free, but the restriction is to browse its own advertisements, so that the advertising costs of large social platforms such as Google, Twitter, and Facebook will be directly absorbed. The faster platform accepted it.

Even the advertisements you want to advertise require this step.

If it were not for negotiation, Google accounts could also be used to log into the faster platform with one click, and the two companies would probably start fighting directly.

Of course, how the current faster resource sharing platform will develop is still being explored. As a super platform with a monthly active population of 2.6 billion in one year, any change may cause great turmoil, not to mention that there are still countless people coveting it. The number of users of the faster resource platform.

You must know that this is data that China, a huge mobile Internet market, has not yet accessed the platform.

From major mobile phone manufacturers to hardware and software providers such as Google, Qualcomm, and Microsoft, they have expressed their hope to provide more interfaces in various ways.

In addition, major domestic software providers and advertisers are also speculating on when Faster will be launched in China. After all, once the faster software is launched in China, it means that the relevant sharing platforms will also start operating after reviewing the content. This also means changes in the entire Internet operation and monetization logic.

Everyone knows this question, and the best person to answer it is actually Ning Zi.

But when these people couldn't find Ning Ju at all, they had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and get word of mouth from Yanbei University of Technology.

So it is conceivable that as a provider of faster software, the School of Computer Science of Yanbei University of Physical Education can imagine how busy this year has been.

It can be said that almost all the Internet celebrities that can be thought of in this era are lining up to give various speeches at the Academy of Economics and Sciences. Of course, most of these celebrities are drunkards and have no intention of drinking. The purpose is probably to be able to follow after the speech. Ning Zi met up to find out some information.

Of course, in most cases, Ning Zi is never seen.

But it can't be said that the university is too negligent. After all, as the principal, he is still very good at reception. Whenever there is such an event, he will personally come out to receive it as long as he is in school, giving the visitors enough face, and he can often get some benefits while drinking and drinking.

After all, most of these Internet celebrities are extremely wealthy, and the Internet companies they run are leaders in their respective industries.

Even these are already assembly line operations.

For the students at the University of Physical Education, this kind of thing made them realize more clearly what Ning Zi meant when he said that their horizons would be broadened here.

After all, these Internet tycoons have seen too much, and they feel that they are not worth much anymore.

At first, a big shot came to give a lecture, and the students were very excited. They went to take seats early and prepared various questions. Later, the children from the sports college began to pick out the influence of the celebrity and arrange the time for the lecture. If the influence If it is not that big, or the lecture is arranged on the weekend, the instructor must make various demands, and even threaten the usual results, so that the auditorium can be filled with people.

This is probably the slogan of the 2019 Yanbei University of Technology. Celebrity speeches are not news. Only when a big shot can make the auditorium full of people on the third floor and the third floor can it be called news.

Of course, today’s photo is destined to be big news.
