The research and development of artificial intelligence seems to be nothing more than algorithms and programming. It seems that a few people can create a powerful artificial intelligence program.
But this is only a one-sided view, because what they are doing is generative artificial intelligence technology, which has not yet become popular in this era.
Although the rudimentary theories of generative artificial intelligence technology already exist, many details still need to be supplemented by a large number of scientific researchers, who contribute their ingenious ideas.
If relying solely on Geek Technology Company, it would probably take at least a year to quickly develop a powerful artificial intelligence.
In order to speed up the process, Gao Nian naturally wanted to add some capable assistants to his team, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences was naturally the most suitable in this regard.
They have a large number of top mathematicians, academicians, and senior scientific research talents. If they are willing to fully assist Gao Nian,
Then, with the power of many people, and the assistance of multi-person teamwork bringing different perspectives and creative ideas,
It may be possible to refine the crude conceptual theories that Gao Nian remembered from his previous life's curiosity about artificial intelligence ChatGPT.
Then, using his own methods, he can successfully materialize the artificial intelligence ChatGPT from his previous life, shortening the research and development time by more than half!
"The Chinese Academy of Sciences is very interested in our cooperation proposal.
After several meetings, they stated that they would send 12 academicians and no less than 500 senior researchers to participate in the project.
However, we still have some details that have not been agreed upon regarding the profit sharing."
Ni Guanghai, the Minister of Technology Research and Development Department, answered Gao Nian's question.
After thinking for a while, Gao Nian gave his decision:
"Speed up the negotiations. In short, our bottom line in terms of scientific research results is that the civilian market belongs to us.
The military and national defense markets belong to them. If they still disagree, then forget it."
"I understand."
Ni Guanghai agreed, indicating that he understood.
Seeing this, Gao Nian didn't continue to say anything. He then continued to make various arrangements to prepare for the upcoming research and development of the third-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke.
Meanwhile, waves were rising outside during this period, and a huge impact, quite unfavorable to Geek Technology Company, was brewing.
More than ten days later, on January 12, 2012, a piece of news shocked the global technology circle.
On this day, in a commercial building in Silicon Valley, USA,
Apple Company in the field of mobile phones, Nvidia Company in the field of graphics cards, AMD Company which operates graphics cards and CPU businesses,
Intel Company, the overlord of CPU processors,
Microsoft Company of computer systems, the blue giant IBM Company, Oracle Company, a giant in the field of databases, Google Company in the field of Internet search, and Facebook and Twitter Companies, Western Internet social giants.
A total of ten top technology companies held a joint press conference in a commercial building in Silicon Valley, jointly announcing a collaboration to develop a new generation of artificial intelligence.
The total funding for this joint research and development project reached a staggering $500 million.
And the most important thing is that if any of these 10 companies hold technology patents related to artificial intelligence,
They have also contributed them to this joint research and development project.
Subsequently, these technology patents will be converted into corresponding profit shares, equivalent to how much money has been raised, and then how much profit share they will take, and so on.
Through this move, it can be seen that the US companies are really serious this time.
They really want to develop a powerful artificial intelligence with a performance score that is not inferior to the second-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke!
In response, the global media naturally reported on this matter like crazy.
More insiders were amazed that these ten companies could actually cooperate.
After all, in the past, these companies never interacted with each other, fearing that other companies would come and snatch the meat from their bowls. But now, these ten companies are really working together to develop artificial intelligence technology, contributing money if they have money,
Contributing technology patents if they have technology patents, and contributing scientific research personnel if they have scientific research personnel.
This spirit and behavior of truly working together is really too surprising.
And this kind of concerted effort is quite bad news for Geek Technology Company.
Because these ten companies are really working together, contributing money if they have money, contributing technology patents if they have technology patents, and contributing scientific research personnel if they have scientific research personnel.
This will undoubtedly allow Western artificial intelligence technology to develop rapidly.
At least at that joint press conference, they jointly announced that they would launch an artificial intelligence with a performance score leading the second-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke in half a year,
This also made netizens in China nervous and worried about Geek Technology Company.
After all, the top ten well-known technology companies are working together, so they naturally have no doubt whether they can develop a powerful artificial intelligence.
Therefore, it is certain that in half a year, Geek Technology Company's second-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke will no longer be able to lead the way alone.
This naturally made Chinese netizens feel a little melancholy. After all, it was not easy for China to have a globally leading technology.
As a result, after less than two years of glory, it is about to be surpassed by the West, which is really too sighing.
However, fortunately, their Chinese smart phones and computer graphics cards are still leading the world. Even if artificial intelligence technology is overtaken by the West, it is not unacceptable.
It's just that the thought that artificial intelligence technology is about to be surpassed by the Western companies that are starting to pay attention to it is still a bit melancholy after all.
However, in the meantime, they still couldn't help but pay attention to the relevant news of Geek Technology Company.
They wanted to know whether Geek Technology Company had any countermeasures in the face of the ten technology companies jointly developing artificial intelligence.
However, what disappointed them happened, because Geek Technology Company did not announce that it would develop a next-generation, stronger artificial intelligence, as if it didn't know about this matter.
The only thing that could barely be related to this matter was the supercomputing center that Geek Technology Company had previously established in Rongcheng, which was officially put into use on January 16, 2012.
But what is this supercomputing center for? Geek Technology Company did not publicize it, and even chose to handle it in a low-key manner without reporting it.
As for why Geek Technology Company is so low-key?
This is because there are not too many companies and institutions currently researching ChatGPT-type generative artificial intelligence technology.
Given Geek Technology Company's market position, once it is exposed that it is researching generative artificial intelligence technology,
Other technology companies around the world will definitely flock to it and then rush to research generative artificial intelligence technology.
Even the research and development team that announced that it would cooperate to jointly develop artificial intelligence technology,
It is also very likely to shift the artificial intelligence technology route from the traditional deep learning technology route to the generative artificial intelligence technology route.
Therefore, Geek Technology Company did not publicize it, but instead chose a development strategy of quietly developing and not firing shots.
After all, once they follow Geek Technology Company to research generative artificial intelligence technology, it will inevitably lead to them competing with Geek Technology Company for technology patents.
This behavior will result in Geek Technology Company being unable to build an unbreakable technology patent barrier.
Therefore, Geek Technology Company chose to remain silent in the face of the menacing ten technology companies and their actions.
And time passed slowly like this. In the blink of an eye, several months passed, and a confrontation between the tip of a needle and the point of a wheat awn was about to break out.
