What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 101 Source

It wasn't until the sun was rising in the east that Xiang Kun finally stopped modifying the PRD. Looking at the plan that was completely different from what he had originally imagined, he couldn't help but rubbed the center of his brows, as if he had made an old mistake again. the...

In the end, the AI ​​assistant he envisioned is already a large-scale project in terms of its numerous functional modules and complexity, and there are some functions that are not yet mature and can be used for reference. Even for giant companies such as Baidu, Google, and Microsoft, it is not an easy task, let alone him alone.

If he had received such a requirement document when he was still working more than a month ago, he would probably pia back to the product manager and ask him to rewrite it after he sobered up.

But now this document is written by himself, and this requirement is made by himself...

So he was a little unwilling to give up, and wanted to try to do it to see how far he could do it.

However, when he started to do what he was really good at again, he found that he could more directly feel the changes in the way of thinking and calculation speed of the brain, and the subjective excitement of the whole person became higher.

The current AI assistant is actually very smart, for example, if you ask "what's the weather like tomorrow?"

AI first converts your voice into text through speech recognition technology, then analyzes your intentions, extracts keywords and "fills the slot".

There are two "slots" in this sentence, one is the time "tomorrow" and the other is the event "weather".

Then execute the command, call the weather forecast program, find out tomorrow's weather, and feedback the result.

If some AI needs to continue the next conversation, it will even "talk" again: "Are you going to travel tomorrow?"

If new keywords are obtained, a new round of slot filling will be started to assist users in various transaction processing.

In the final analysis, it depends on each keyword to trigger the preset feedback, but the current AI is constantly changing, the success rate of identifying the real intention is getting higher and higher, and the feedback is becoming more and more comprehensive and humanized. It looks more and more "alive".

But in fact, the current AI is still far from autonomous artificial intelligence.

Xiang Kun didn't expect to create an artificial intelligence with self-consciousness on his own, he just wanted to use the method of "strengthening learning" combined with "deep learning" to let this AI assistant continue to help him improve the "vampire mutation". model", and according to the output results of the model, continuously search the Internet for medicine, biology, physics and even news in a targeted manner, select content that may be useful to him, sort it out for him to browse, and then according to his actual choice , to refine future search rules and decisions.

In terms of life and training, the AI ​​assistant will also advise him through the "vampire mutation model", and spontaneously raise some questions that he may ignore, propose new directions that can be tried, and assist him in experiments and parameter records.

And he also hopes that the AI ​​​​assistant can help him analyze and monitor daily life behaviors and online operations, whether there are abnormal details that are too abnormal to be noticed by people, and propose solutions, so as to help him keep the secret of mutation.

After spending a whole day, Xiang Kun already had a rough implementation framework, and also marked the implementation methods of most functions, as well as a large number of technical difficulties that needed to be solved.

But the deeper he went, the more Xiang Kun knew that this project could not be completed by himself in a short period of time.

Although many functions are now available on the Internet with open source code and data sets, it still takes a lot of time to integrate. What's more, there are still many functions that must be developed from scratch.

He is now naturally much better than his former self, and it is not a big problem to say that one can be used for 10, and he can work 24 hours a day.

But many constraints are still beyond what he can solve now,

Not to mention manpower, his current hardware facilities cannot support the planned development. Not only does the computer need to be replaced, but cloud services with larger bandwidth and higher computing power are also required, and some terminal equipment customization is even required.

"It seems that we can either find a shortcut, or become very rich, just like Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne..." Xiang Kun patted his bald head and muttered to himself.

However, he didn't plan to go back to the original demand directly, and use it as a very simple AI assistant first, just like seeing the cold hard steamed buns in front of him after YYing a table full of Chinese people, unless he is too hungry, otherwise I can't stop talking.

He is going to start with the speech synthesis function first, anyway, no matter what kind of AI assistant it ends up with, this function is a must.

And just like playing a game, players always like to pinch their faces before assigning specific attribute points. For an AI assistant without a physical body, the voice can be said to be her face.

The speech synthesis function has developed relatively maturely now. Apart from those big manufacturers, there are also many open source toolkits on the Internet that can be used directly.

However, Xiang Kun's obsessive-compulsive disorder occurred again. He was still dissatisfied with the smoothness of the voice for a while, and he was not satisfied with the timbre of the existing female voice for a while.

...

At 11 o'clock in the morning on September 13, Xiang Kun received Jingdong's express delivery, so he temporarily stopped struggling with the synthetic voice, and opened the package with some expectation.

The magnetic field detector and the microscope were sent together. After confirming that there was no problem and no damage, Xiang Kun was going to start testing with the magnetic field detector first.

This detector can measure low frequency 5Hz~400Khz, high frequency 300MHz~3000MHz, and can switch the magnetic field test mode, with an accuracy of 1v/m and 0.01μ.

He first took the hand-held tester close to various electrical appliances to confirm that its readings were normal and its functions were normal.

Then he took the tester and sat in front of the canary's cage. Since the cage was opened the day before yesterday, it has not come out until now, and it is still very "safe and secure" in its own territory.

Looking at the canary that chirped twice, Xiang Kun thought for a while, then got up and went to the kitchen to experiment with the remaining two rabbits.

However, what made him more regretful was that during the process of using "shock and awe" to cause various effects on the rabbit, the readings of the detector did not change significantly.

"Is my previous guess wrong? Or is the detector I bought too cheap and not sensitive enough?" Xiang Kun couldn't help muttering a few words, then put the detector aside, and began to tinker with the microscope.

He did not test his own cells or blood immediately, but first took a little blood from the rabbit with a blood collection needle, and did not make a smear. He simply dripped physiological saline to make a smear for observation.

In the microscope he bought, the eyepiece is connected to a display screen, which can be directly connected to the computer screen, so he directly uses the computer screen for observation.

There was nothing special about rabbit blood, just to get familiar with the microscope that he hadn't operated since middle school, and as a simple reference, so he didn't do much observation.

Next, he found a few microscopic pictures of human blood on the Internet, and watched the video of other people observing human blood with a microscope, as a reference.

Finally, he took his own blood and began to observe.

Xiang Kun didn't do a smear because he wanted to observe his blood more naturally. He knew that his blood would undergo drastic changes within ten minutes.
