Chapter 1101 Gu Man is trapped
Zhao Mingyang was sitting in a coffee shop drinking coffee, and met a very extraordinary person in a very ordinary coffee shop.
This person is an expert in AI and one of the founders of a technology company invested by Zhao Mingyang. He invited Zhao Mingyang to talk about the future development direction of the company, because Zhao Mingyang is one of the major shareholders, and Sam, as one of the founders, and others
One of the founders had some philosophical differences.
Another founder was also the earliest funder of this project. Sam actually came here to ask for Zhao Mingyang’s support. If Zhao Mingyang supported his idea, he could continue to do it. If not, he might be passive.
Zhao Mingyang has the right to make decisions. If he sides with Sam, Sam can continue to follow his development direction. If he does not side with Sam, Sam's direction must be changed.
No matter which direction it goes, one person must leave, because the company can only have one idea and cannot have multiple ideas.
"Mr. Zhao, I want to ask you this time to ask what you think about the future development direction of the AI we are developing. Should we continue to research and develop it in depth and develop it for another ten or twenty years, or will it be available in three to five years?"
.
Of course, if it enters the market in advance, commercialization is inevitable." Sam picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, waiting for Zhao Mingyang's answer.
Zhao Mingyang looked at him, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip of coffee. He was also entangled in it. He knew that the future was very controversial. The future value of the thing they made was beyond everyone's understanding. It was even considered to be the second-largest company after Microsoft.
After that, mankind experienced another technological change.
There are not many technological changes in the true sense. In modern times, it is Microsoft. This is the survey answer given by an authoritative organization, because Microsoft has made computers different and changed many industries in the world.
To put it simply, the changes that the Internet has brought to traditional industries, whether it is e-commerce or smartphones, are all based on this infrastructure. The telephone is a technological change for mankind, but it took too long. In modern times,
It's Microsoft.
But this time, what they want to talk about is the changes in the next era.
Zhao Mingyang never thought that he would be involved in this thing. This project is currently very controversial because it was released too early. What everyone expected was that it would be later, more mature, and more controllable.
Ultimately, it is an uncontrollable factor.
It is like a creature of its own in the virtual world, with its own ideas. Originally, everyone thought that this thing was far away from humans, but unexpectedly it suddenly appeared. Should we limit it, or let it develop on its own?
"Do you think driverless family cars will be realized in the future?" Zhao Mingyang asked Sam, because this is something that has been constantly mentioned in recent years.
Sam didn't expect that Zhao Mingyang would bring up this topic. He fell into deep thought. After a long time, he answered seriously: "According to the current progress and the development of technology, it is very likely that it will be basically possible to do it in the next ten years, and even people will be able to drive in the future."
Illegal, it is not impossible to have to ride in an unmanned vehicle.
Because transportation is handed over to machines, in fact, the failure rate and accident rate may be many, many times lower than when handed over to people. Just like horse carriages are not allowed on the road now, because horses are uncontrollable, and humans cannot control horses.
Follow human instructions exactly.
So horse-drawn carriages were eliminated by cars, because people can control cars, but people themselves are uncontrollable."
Zhao Mingyang looked at Sam. His angle was quite strange and tricky. He compared carriages with cars and future autonomous cars.
"Then you are not afraid of losing control of the car? Hacker attacks? After all, driverless cars are completely electronic." Zhao Mingyang asked again.
"What's so scary about this? We can install multiple systems in the car, such as the cloud connected to the network, such as city systems, such as the car-machine network-free stand-alone system. Based on local data, it can cooperate with radars and cameras for offline operations and calculations.
.
This can be found on airplanes and subways. Multiple security measures can be used to achieve this kind of thing. With trillions of things invested, it is impossible for hackers to break through easily.
Generally speaking, when hackers break into a system, they usually break through the first to second layers of protection. A server basically has tens of thousands of protections.
Moreover, if a server is threatened, it can be stopped directly and other servers used. Some large companies have multiple servers around the world.
The final control is in the hands of a few people. The disadvantage is that ordinary people have less privacy and fewer choices. However, as long as things are done within the prescribed laws and regulations, the security of ordinary people will be greatly improved.
According to the current scientific research progress, driverless driving is not a difficult task. It is just a matter of how to make the price of radar lower. It is enough to have multiple radars and cameras in the whole car and the calculation can keep up. As long as the hardware cost is reduced, this thing will accelerate.
Progress, not software. Nowadays, a high-precision millimeter-wave radar is too expensive. One radar costs 18,000 or even tens of thousands, and a few installed in a car can cost hundreds of thousands. The cost of the car is too high, so it cannot be popularized.
, collect usage data on a large scale, but what if this drops to thousands or even hundreds?" Sam said.
"You also said that the ultimate control is still in the hands of a few people. Can you ensure that the thing you develop is within the control of a few people? If not, then it will not exist. It is unnecessary. It will eventually return.
The topic is the issue of control, do you have a solution?" Zhao Mingyang asked.
"Yes, as long as a control code is implanted in the source code and the control is handed over to the Five Emperors, and only they can participate in the development, we all give up the final authority." Sam said.
Zhao Mingyang guessed that this guy also did this in his previous life.
"Then what do you think this thing will look like in the end? Have you ever thought about it? What I'm talking about is whether it will be excluded or a gimmick, similar to the Metaverse. Now you are just asking for a second round of financing. If I
If you don’t invest, the other shareholder won’t invest either. Your project can only be suspended. I want to know more information.
You know what I mean. I also want to know what your purpose is for doing this, what your core is, and what this thing will look like in the future. You know better than anyone else, but if you don’t tell the truth, I can contact other shareholders to destroy it.
We will not invest tens of billions of dollars for something that is uncontrollable.
You didn't give us any information, how can we trust you? The information you gave us is superficial and practical. We are talking about this thing. What is its final direction? You have to tell us and let us know.
You have a number, give it to me." Zhao Mingyang said straight to the point.
Sam looked at Zhao Mingyang. Zhao Mingyang said it very directly and wanted an answer.
Tapping his fingers on the table, Sam thought for a while and said: "This thing needs big data support. To put it simply, it is a big data integration platform, and then quickly gives a result. It will have certain logical capabilities, but it will not be very strong.
.
It can quickly produce some things that everyone wants, such as music, paintings, copywriting, etc., but these are all secondary processing based on big data.
For example, if you ask it to make a picture based on a text description or you put a picture to it, it can make and adapt it, but if you ask it to create a new one, it is basically impossible. It cannot create something from scratch.
When produced, it can only be integrated and adapted, without creativity, but with imitative power.
A group of people who are just trying to make a fool of themselves and whose basic skills are not strong can be eliminated. Capable original creators will not be disturbed and replaced, but can only make better use of them to improve work efficiency.
In the future, this thing will be widely used in business to help companies improve office efficiency. It cannot be as powerful as I said when I was financing. Its upper limit may be an evolved search engine and multi-functional generator, which can only improve
Work efficiency in some industries.
Other shareholders asked me to continue doing this. They thought this thing had certain intelligence and logic, but the reality is that it cannot exist. Human beings have studied for thousands of years, and in fact they found that only humans have advanced intelligence, animals do not, and machines do not.
Neither.
But in order to raise funds, I exaggerated some things. I have to be honest about this. This project has reached a bottleneck. Only by investing in business to obtain more user data can we make it smarter."
Zhao Mingyang smiled and said: "You want to use it to obtain more closed-loop data, such as data related to many professionals and enterprises, some of which have not been transmitted to the cloud.
But as long as you use it, package it and exaggerate it, people can take the initiative to use it, and when you use it, you can get data, and then share this data with ordinary people.
Ordinary people can get the data of some enterprises and professionals, which will gain access to the market of most ordinary people, so that some enterprises and professionals must innovate twice. Those who do not innovate will be eliminated by this thing, benefiting others at the expense of others, you know this sentence
Words?
We have a saying in China, which is called benefiting oneself at the expense of others. You are a very successful businessman. You know how to make profits and maximize profits. The thing you developed is a good working partner and the best tool for ordinary people. Search
Engine and versatile build tools.
Finally, music, painting, and copywriting are basically homogeneous. The advantage is that big data can be used to obtain users' preferences and then generate what users want. The disadvantage is that a large number of manual labor and a large number of uncreative productivity are eliminated.
It can produce the perfect products that everyone wants, but it cannot produce rich and diverse products, because in the final analysis it only has the ability to imitate, and it can patch things together based on big data to obtain user preferences and piece together something for users.
This has the greatest impact on art-related industries. It will only allow the top creators to appear in art-related industries, and the rest will be homogenized. In the end, top creators must use copyright to protect their works, otherwise everyone's works will be the same.
They all have to be homogenized, right?
User stickiness will be very high, and users will basically be inseparable from this industry. In order to maximize the industry, we will open source the early code to other companies that want to make profits, and let them help us obtain data.
The source code is with us, and they can't prevent us from obtaining the information, and they can also charge usage fees. No matter how those companies package it to make money, or say that they developed it themselves, it has nothing to do with us.
Just pay us royalties and provide us with data. We can sell some products or invest in some products based on these data.
We control the final market terminal. The most direct way is to invest in the stock market. We know what can make money and just buy related stocks. Users and companies serve us. We can make continuous profits through data.
We can't stop making profits until we are defeated by a better product."
Sam looked at Zhao Mingyang in disbelief, realizing that the man in front of him was so terrifying. He actually knew what he was thinking and what he wanted.
"Don't be surprised. Like you, I have never had the chance to get anything before, and I didn't dare to think about it. When I touch the ceiling of wealth one day, when I can change my class on my own, my thoughts will change.
, dreams are reserved for geniuses who are born to change the world.
Many people will laugh at us for abandoning our dreams for money and profit. That’s because we have never enjoyed fame and fortune. Those people are born with this and don’t worry about it. For example, you have lived in a super luxurious detached house.
Villa? Have you ever driven a supercar?
You want your family to live a better life, you want beauties to come to you, you want not to worry about money, you and I are the same, are we wrong? Maybe we are, but we are just businessmen with bad reputations.
, I have never elevated myself to a very high position.
You and I are both mortals. We live in this world for pleasure, and all our efforts are to make ourselves and our families happy.
Leave it to those geniuses to change the world, so I very much agree with you putting this on the agenda and commercializing it on the market. Moreover, I also have a database that can be combined with yours. Combining the two sides can speed up the advancement of this project.
If a shareholder withdraws his shares, I can provide the money for the second round of financing, and you can do yours with peace of mind. Of course, we also need a larger backer and database. If there are larger shareholders who want to take over and invest, they will be given priority.
The final step is to ensure that our project can be successfully launched on the shelves. You don't need to explain so much to me. What you are thinking about now is how to maximize profits and how to best package it.
As long as I pay dividends, I will not interfere with your research and development. Don't think there is anything shameful about this. Gates has been building up his personality. There is nothing you can't do. He is more mercenary than you.
We can’t do things that geniuses do, so there’s no need to learn from them, and there’s no need to do the same thing as them.”
