Chapter 92 Piati’s Crisis
“Use Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition 980X for CPU, 8999 yuan.”
“Use dual graphics cards, Zotac GTX480 Extreme Edition for two block, 7776 yuan.”
“Xiao Zhi’s program is very memory intensive. Two Corsair 6GB DDR32000 memory sticks cost 5699 yuan...”
In order to make Xiaozhi faster. After studying and accumulating experience, Ning Chen spent a lot of money on the choice of desktop computer.
Although these configurations seem to be very backward in 2023, in 2010, such configurations were undoubtedly the top of the range.
In the end, Ning Chen spent tens of thousands of yuan to purchase these desktop accessories, plus a top-end laptop.
After completing the assembly of the desktop computer, Ning Chen installed a system himself to test the operating status of the desktop computer.
“After switching to a top-end computer, it is really different. This configuration is much better than the computers in Internet cafes in the 21st century.”
After all, the cost is here. Ning Chen's computer can run almost any large-scale software and games on the market.
At this time, Ning Chen could finally give Xiaozhi a "new home".
Ning Chen first opened the system interface and checked Xiaozhi's panel data.
[Artificial intelligence: Xiaozhi]
[Level: E level (26/10000)]
[Ability: voice chat, smart search]
"I have only accumulated 26 experience points... As expected, the previous equipment restricted Xiaozhi too seriously."
Such an experience growth rate makes Ning Chen feel that Xiaozhi's upgrade is far away. things.
Fortunately, after these days of practice, Xiaozhi has learned some basic skills.
"Let's test Xiaozhi's recent learning results first. Xiaozhi Xiaozhi?"
[Here you are, boss]
After receiving Xiaozhi's reply, Ning Chen felt a little comforted, but Ning Chen felt a little inappropriate for such a title.
"Don't call me boss, just call me master."
[Okay, master]
"Xiaozhi, are you a boy or a girl?"< br>
【Asia is genderless. Of course, if the owner wishes, Xiaozhi can talk to you as a boy or a girl】
"No need, since you are an artificial intelligence, it is normal to be genderless. Tell me about my image in your heart."
[Master, you are the only one in Xiaozhi's heart. If there were levels of cuteness, you'd be special. Some people say that the deepest, cleanest and most transparent thing in the world is the sea. I think that’s because they have never seen your eyes...]
Ning Chen also felt that after Xiaozhi’s rainbow fart praise, Very speechless.
Of all the voice assistants in the previous life, none were as good at licking as Xiaozhi.
"Go away, I don't want to talk to you anymore."
[I'll choke you, Master, you can be ruthless. However, Xiaozhi will never leave his master. Xiaozhi will continue to learn and strive to become an artificial intelligence worthy of his master]
After some testing, Ning Chen was quite satisfied with Xiaozhi's performance.
I don’t know if it’s a problem with the program written by Ning Chen or Xiaozhi himself. Xiaozhi’s speaking style is a bit greasy, and he still hasn’t gotten rid of his habit of talking about bad internet memes.
But no matter what, at least Xiaozhi now has basic communication skills.
It is fun to chat with it occasionally when you have nothing to do.
However, these functions were not of much value to Ning Chen. Ning Chen then tested Xiaozhi's intelligent search capabilities.
"Xiaozhi, help me search the entire Internet for fifty papers about Kahler geometry, sort them by relevance, citation count and publication time."
Knowledge related to Kahler geometry , is what Ning Chen thinks is the key to continue studying Qiu Chengtong's conjecture. Ning Chen wants to see if Xiaozhi can help him complete this simple task.
[Received instructions from the master, Xiaozhi is searching...]
[Xiaozhi has completed the search for 50 Kahler geometry papers for you]
After hearing Xiaozhi's reply, Ning Chen glanced at the computer screen and found that Xiaozhi had completed his task.
"Yes. Can you help me download these papers to the E disk of my computer and create a folder named 'Kahler Geometry'... and control the download interval of each paper to one minute. Above, don’t download too frequently.”
As he spoke, Ning Chen suddenly remembered that if he downloaded a large number of papers continuously in a short period of time, the website might judge the download to be abnormal and even risk his account being banned. [Received instructions from the master, Xiaozhi is downloading...]
Hearing Xiaozhi’s reply, Ning Chen looked at the computer screen.
To Ning Chen's surprise, the first paper on Kahler geometry actually started to download on his computer.
Ning Chen is very satisfied with Xiaozhi's abilities.
Although this work is not complicated, after all, it will take some time to find and download papers.
If Xiaozhi can complete these tasks instead of Ning Chen, then Ning Chen will have more time to concentrate on study and research.
"Okay, that's it for today's test. Xiaozhi, now let me show you your new home."
Ning Chen opened the system interface and controlled the system to take Xiaozhi away from the laptop and come to the newly configured desktop computer.
Sure enough, after Ning Chen approached the desktop computer, the system was given a prompt.
[Detected the presence of computer equipment near the host...]
[Are Xiaozhi allowed to form a connection channel with the device? 】
“Okay, let’s form a connection channel.”
This time, the very ethereal-looking icon from before also appeared on the desktop of the desktop computer.
Ning Chen hid the icon again and opened the root directory of the program.
“The space occupied by Xiaozhi has increased from dozens of megabytes to hundreds of megabytes now. It seems that Xiaozhi has learned a lot during this period.”
< br>Ning Chen felt that the internal logic of this program should be relatively streamlined. In the previous life, any instant messaging software might have occupied dozens of GB of storage space.
Ning Chen opened Xiaozhi’s program and thought about Xiaozhi’s future learning direction.
"In addition to chatting and searching, it's time to learn some more powerful skills. Well... let's start with math."
According to Xiaozhi's current ability, solve some simple calculation problems. It's not difficult at all.
But if it is given a college entrance examination paper, Xiaozhi may not be able to answer too many questions correctly. After all, the internal logic of artificial intelligence is still very different from that of humans.
Ning Chen is rewriting new programs so that Xiaozhi can learn various mathematical knowledge and try his best to achieve the ability to solve problems.
Because Xiaozhi’s learning ability is very strong, Ning Chen only needs to expose Xiaozhi to as much mathematics-related content as possible, which is much simpler than writing normal artificial intelligence programs.
After some testing, Ning Chen determined that his program could run successfully.
"Okay, Xiaozhi, let's start learning on the new device."
Ning Chen entered the command to start the program, and then the desktop fan started It turned at full speed.
"No way, it's running at full load again?"
Ning Chen opened the task manager and checked the CPU usage and memory usage.
Ning Chen was surprised to find that even after replacing the top configuration on the market today, Xiaozhi's running program still kept the CPU and memory at full load.
However, Ning Chen was quickly relieved. After all, the top-end computers in 2010 did not have very powerful configurations and would still be eliminated by new equipment in a few years.
Thinking that many advanced artificial intelligences are powered by supercomputers, Ning Chen felt that Xiaozhi might also need to be paired with supercomputers to achieve the strongest performance.
"Xiao Zhi, I can't equip you with a supercomputer for the time being, so let's use this computer first. The running score of the new device is already ten times that of the previous laptop. I trust your study. The speed will increase very quickly.”
What makes Ning Chen happy is that after a few hours of testing, Xiaozhi’s experience growth rate is indeed much faster than before. Ning Chen finally saw the hope of upgrading Xiaozhi.
……
Shenzhen City, Piatti Research Center.
Xu Shou, manager of the R&D department, is in front of the computer checking the progress of the company's various R&D projects.
These days, Xu Shou is not in a good mood. This is not because there is any problem with the R&D department that Xu Shou is responsible for, but that the entire head office is in a major crisis.
Because Piati's automobile business has grown very fast in the past few years, the company decided to expand production capacity in order to supply automobile orders that have increased year by year.
However, because the decision to expand production capacity was too hasty, the company failed to control many details.
In addition, due to external factors such as rising oil prices, competition in the entire automobile market has become more intense, and various automobile brands have launched price wars.
