Tech Hammer

Hua Xia, Yanbei University, International Mathematics Research Center, Academician Office.

It was already 10:30 at night, and the press conference held at the IBM headquarters building in Armonk, New York, started at 9:00 sharp local time. It was in May, New York State had begun to implement daylight saving time, and the capital of China The time was 13 hours ahead of local time, so it was already 10 o'clock at night in Beijing when the press conference started. It was exactly half an hour into the press conference when the signal was interrupted.

Ning Wei touched his chin and looked at the black screen, suddenly not knowing what to say. Speaking of which, he quite sympathized with John Blake who was standing on the stage. He was a very good young man, so why could he be so hard to think about? There is nothing wrong with research, but we want to develop new strong artificial intelligence, and we still use his theoretical framework.

However, after reading the source code of Watson in detail, Ning Wei feels that the design of this underlying learning logic is quite creative. There are certain innovations, especially in the design of decision tree algorithms, which are well within the world's leading level. If these were all designed by John Black, it means that this guy is very talented in the computer field, at least not as bad as Lucy Rowan.

This is already a high praise.

Although Ning Wei has been enjoying beating Lucy for so many years, he actually admires the talent of this once the youngest female doctor at Harvard. That's really all it takes. Many of his ideas were even inspired by his quarrel with this woman. What's even more frightening is Lucy Rowan's comprehension ability, not just in mathematics or computers, she even knows a little bit about physics.

This is why this era has higher requirements for geniuses. If it were placed a hundred years ago, this woman might have been written into textbooks. More importantly, Ning Wei still believes that Lucy Rowan's biggest failure in her life is that she cares about appearance more than the pursuit of science. She spends time on makeup and dressing up every day, and goes shopping every year. It may even exceed the time she spends in the laboratory, classroom, and computer room...

So to get such an evaluation from Ning Wei is enough for John Blake to be really powerful. If this new IBM academician knew Ning Wei's evaluation of him, he would probably feel very gratified.

But thinking about it at this time, he definitely couldn't think about it. After all, the praise of idols cannot be eaten as food.

Ning Wei just expressed a simple sigh in his heart, without any other meaning. He couldn't criticize the cute kitten lying calmly in front of his desk for being too silly.

Well, not so cute actually. Ever since this guy likes to be called March-sama... Japanese comics have done a lot of harm to cats.

But there still needs to be discussion.

Although Watson is no longer a secret to him, and he even used part of its code to optimize his own kernel in March, there must still be some communication to show respect for his peers...

"Do you think we should publish that paper? Otherwise, John Blake will take the blame. This should be considered an accident, right?" Ning Wei said.

After all, it is love that is so heartfelt. From a broad perspective, Ning Wei does not want a genius like John Blake to never recover. Not only does he have a very high theoretical level, but he also has rich experience in front-line work and hosting projects for the past ten years. It is natural for him to be a teacher for future Ningban children, and he is even better than Lucy Rowan at the teacher level.

After all, Lucy has a solid theoretical foundation, but after coming to China for so long, she still has no practical experience. It's not that I didn't give her a chance, it's that I was too lazy and wasted my good brain.

"Meow... of course it depends on what you mean."

"Actually, the main reason is that you are too noisy. Wouldn't it be nice to let people finish this press conference happily?"

"Meow... But it's meaningless. They are eager to open many related databases to Watson, and most of the content has been included in the data retrieval database. If you don't tell them at this time, it will be too insidious. .After all, I am an upright cat."

This reason is so invincible that Ning Wei thinks March should be given 180 likes.

"Has it been included in the search database? Does Area 51 really have alien information?" Ning Wei asked with great interest.

"Meow... there is no real information about aliens. Most of them are worthless documents based on speculation, especially the information before the 21st century. The credibility is not even as good as the gossip news from the self-media. In fact, I still think that the universe The results of the process deduction are correct. The human civilization on Earth in the solar system may not be the only civilization in this universe, but it is currently the civilization with the most advanced technology in this universe and is in the first echelon."

After hearing March's answer, Ning Wei instantly lost interest. He originally wanted to read those records.

"Okay, but really speaking, if our thirty-year plan is successfully completed, we will know whether there are extraterrestrial civilizations in this universe. It's quite exciting to think about it." Ning Wei nodded and said.

"Meow... Actually, if we really want to say that there is evidence of extraterrestrial civilization on Earth now, it should be in China."

Ning Wei looked at the kitten, and then the two of them blinked together.

"Well, I don't think I've heard of this." Ning Wei thought for a while and then spoke very carefully.

"Meow... I only live in this mountain, and I don't know where the clouds are." An ancient poem came out when March opened.

This also made Ning Wei more cautious. After thinking about it, he did not continue to communicate with Yue Yue, but pressed the button on the table. After a while, young Yuan Jiajun walked in.

"Xiao Yuan, I suddenly feel a little hungry. Why don't you help me go home and bring me a cup of milk tea made by Classmate Jiang. You know, I don't feel at ease if I have to go home to explain to others."

"Ah...Academician Ning, why don't you go back so late?"

"Well, there are a lot of things going on today, and I may be busy until one or two o'clock. Go quickly. Don't worry, I won't go out while I'm in the office."

"Then... Okay, Academician Ning, I'll be there right away." Although Yuan Jiajun felt strange. After all, Ning Wei basically never asked him to go to the house to get milk tea, he still nodded, then turned around and walked out. office.

Although his task is to follow Ning Wei at all times, it does not need to be so strict as long as he is on the Yanbei University campus and within the research center. This was also specially explained to him by the previous Brother Liu.

As Liu Wei said, the essence of any security work in this era requires a team to perform systematic operations, and the more professional the team, the clearer the division of labor. Although the person standing in front of the stage is important, he is not omnipotent. Only one person can protect another person perfectly. That is a mythical plot in the movie.

Without reliable intelligence support, well-designed plans and various supports for various unexpected situations, even if you find a superman as a bodyguard, you may not be able to guarantee your employer's safety 100%. Relying on a team is the most professional option. .

So Xiao Yuan left simply and closed the concierge door.

Then Ning Wei asked seriously: "Okay, let's talk quickly."

"Meow..." The kitten raised its paw, and then called up all the physical examination reports of Ning Wei over the years, focusing on the brain CT.

Ning Wei frowned and asked, "Well...my physical examination report has always been normal, right?"

"Meow...it's indeed normal. You are even healthier than 99% of your peers. But by comparing it with millions of similar pictures in the medical database and comprehensively judging brain waves, you can It is certain that your brain has been implanted with a miniature biological computer that far exceeds the current industrial level of the earth. It is at this location..."

A recent brain CT picture began to enlarge until it looked a little blurry, but was quickly corrected by computing power, and soon a picture that looked like a small multi-clawed fish appeared in front of Ning Wei's eyes. Those little claws penetrated into tiny blood vessels and some seemed to be directly connected to nerves...

Apparently this picture was processed in March.

If it were the original graph, it would probably be an inconspicuous small node, and no abnormalities would be visible to the naked eye. Even if it is enlarged, it is impossible to be so clear. It is only possible to achieve such clarity by relying on calculation power to restore and deduce.

Ning Wei looked at Yue Yue, and then their eyes met.

He had no memory at all as to why this thing appeared in his mind, but with a simple inference, Ning Wei thought of the scene where he ran wildly in the heavy rain at school and then suddenly fainted...

From that day on, he discovered that his mind was different. He even clearly remembered that when he was in a coma, he faced a tram problem that easily led to moral dilemmas. If that were the case, it would all make sense. At this moment, Ning Wei felt a sense of relief in his heart...

Sure enough, he was not a genius, but he was certainly lucky. After all, there is definitely only one of this thing in the world right now...

"This thing...is it true?"

"Meow...of course it's fidelity. I've been trying to connect to it through various wireless devices in the past, but all failed. This biological computer has never responded. But after the short space was proved, in a specific laboratory environment it It will take the initiative to send out signals, and has sorted out some information fragments and cracked them into understandable formats, including video and audio content. Do you want to take a look now?"

Ning Wei touched his chin and nodded firmly: "Well..."

"Meow……"

The next moment, the three-dimensional display in the office started working, and a scientist in a white robe appeared opposite Ning Wei.

"I am the chief scientist of the K001 underground city and the general person in charge of the Technological Hammer Project, Liang Zheng. I don't know if this information can really be passed on, but I think it should be recorded. Every hero in this world should To be remembered, in any way. If you can finally digest this message and see it, hopefully you will know what a sacrifice it was."

The picture blurred, and then switched to a picture of countless people queuing in front of a large elevator. The voice-over also sounded again: "The Technology Hammer Project is a technology correction plan. According to the proven Ma Zhenhua theory, our universe and countless universes are Surrounded by a kind of simple and special particles, the projection of these particles in each universe becomes a high-speed path throughout the entire universe."

"So in theory, when a certain universe enters the regressive period, civilization will be able to travel through special methods, find the universe in the new period, and resume civilization. It's a pity that our technology has not yet developed to this point. A terrible situation that is irreversible. This sudden incident did not destroy mankind, but it set back our industrial and technological civilization by at least two hundred years."

"In a saturation attack, especially the saturation attack on the world's major industrial bases and industrial chains, the high-precision industrial chains including China and more than 90% of the heavy industrial bases have been destroyed. Although the Mars base has It was built by industrial robots controlled by artificial intelligence, but our planet no longer has the ability to produce interplanetary long-distance shipping carriers. We have even lost the ability to deliver supplies to the moon base. According to calculations, our Mars base will also be the largest in the world. Fifty years later it decayed and then became a ruin.”

"The good news is that the environmental disaster is dissipating faster than planned. More people in the world can survive this disaster, and our civilization has the possibility of continuing or even becoming more glorious, but this may take dozens of generations People have to work hard again. Along with this process, they will face more problems. Each of these people who are preparing to transfer is precious. They are the generation that has witnessed the glorious civilization of this planet. It is the fire of the future.”

After the words fell, the scene changed again. This time, the location was in a room that seemed to be an interview. More importantly, Ning Wei felt that the man being interviewed was someone he had seen in his dream and was very sure about it.

"Colonel Li Yao, do you really want to sign up for this mission? I need to remind you again that the chance of you surviving after this mission is less than one in ten million. No one can withstand the turbulence in space."

"I have read all the information and I know the fate that will follow, but someone has to do it. It's not me, it has to be someone else, right? And I'm an active duty soldier, and I'm ready to sacrifice. .”

Ning Wei's expression became more serious, and at this moment the voice-over came out again.

"As mentioned in the conversation just now, the Technological Hammer Project is a plan that is destined to require sacrifices, and it requires the sacrifices of many people. Our main control computer is seriously insufficient, and we need more people to monitor real-time data. Increase the success rate and successfully send our biological computer out. If there is a planet like ours in another universe, similar to our civilization, this gift will allow you to directly pass the most difficult stage."

"As mentioned just now, our computing power is seriously insufficient, and some coordinates can only be calculated by hand. We hope that this delivery will allow this biological computer to successfully reach the Chinese land in another universe, but it is still This computer is set with a password to locate and unlock China's genetic sequence. I don't know if these sacrifices are worth it, but I hope all sacrifices will have good results."
