Build a gaming empire from scratch

Chapter 484 Everyone Has a Room to Live in, Everyone Has a Date

After unlocking and learning the secondary artificial intelligence technology, Lin You didn't put it on the shelf, but he didn't use it casually either.

Out of technical caution, he decided to conduct a test first.

The location of the test, also due to personal concerns, was not placed in the "cruel" "Battlefield".

So where do you put it?

In the case of [Virtual Chang’an] construction team with limited scale and even more limited technical personnel, why can the cake seller in Dongshi and the mysterious Mr. Assassin behave so naturally and like a real person in the interaction with Wu Di?
Of course it was because Lin You added technology!

The core technology of secondary artificial intelligence has been first used by him in [Virtual Chang'an].

If this technology works perfectly and does not have any negative effects, then there will be a large number of such "smart" virtual characters in the virtual city of Chang'an in the future.

Greatly enrich the game experience of players.

Following the realization of "everyone has a house to live in" in the metropolis, it is expected to realize "everyone has an object" again!
And it's really smart, the kind that won't cheat, and won't die!
Oh, no, whether it will die or not, it is not sure yet...

How the game will be done isn't fully settled yet.

But no matter what, it is possible that one day in the future, there will be a joke about "Yunmeng package distribution".

Even if it is not in [Virtual Chang'an], it may appear in a certain game later.

Now Xiaomeng asked why he didn't use the technology in "Battlefield", of course Lin You wouldn't hide it.

He replied directly: "Because I feel: they were created to let them die again and again on the battlefield, as if they were being abused..."

"Also, don't you feel offended by ignoring the feelings of artificial intelligence like this?"

"Huh?" Xiaomeng widened her eyes in surprise.

"It's not really going to die, master, you think too much!"

"And they are completely different from Xiaomeng! They are completely the product of another technological evolution route."

"Let Xiaomeng think about how to tell the master!" Xiaomeng pointed her chin with her index finger, blinked her eyes, and thought for a while.

This thinking only lasted for a short time, and Xiaomeng figured out how to explain it——

"They can indeed express joy and pain, but whether it is joy or pain, it is the algorithm that tells them. The algorithm tells them, under what circumstances, what emotions should be expressed, and what expressions should be used, Language and tone to express this emotion. But they themselves, can't really empathize."

"Their [emotions] are based on an algorithm [performance]."

"But Xiaomeng can really feel it! Whether it's joy or sadness, regret or disappointment, sympathy or pain, you can understand and feel it all!" Having said that, Xiaomeng is quite proud, looking up at her little face. Xiang Linyou.

But he saw Lin You's suspicious eyes.

Lin You didn't doubt whether Xiaomeng could feel these complex emotions, but——

"But how do I feel, Xiao Meng, you are having fun every day?"

Unhappy because of Lin You's suspicion, Xiao Meng frowned, and immediately became happy again: "That's because Xiao Meng is very happy every day!"

Seeing Xiaomeng started to be silly again, Lin You habitually reached out and rubbed her pink head.

"So you think, I should use this technology in "Battlefield"?"

"The master doesn't want to use it, so Xiao Meng can understand it, because the master is a good person." Xiao Meng obediently was rubbed on the head by Lin You, as always easy to talk.

"According to what you said just now, secondary artificial intelligence is actually a purely technological achievement that does not involve the field of digital life at all. At most, it is a digital life with disabilities and emotional disorders?" Lin You finally asked for confirmation.

"No~" Xiaomeng shook her head, "They are not digital lives at all, they are not products of a field at all, they belong to technological products, they are [products], not [life]."

"Life cannot be mass produced!"

"That's true." Lin You thought of Xiaomeng's irreproducibility.

It is obviously the same code, but after Xiaomeng was born, it will only report errors continuously, and it can no longer run smoothly at all, and it has become a bunch of completely meaningless codes.

In contrast, the sub-artificial intelligence core is not too difficult to replicate.

Special Note: The "not too difficult" here refers to Lin You who is assisted by Xiaomeng.

"Then...add it in?"

Since it is a "technical product", it seems that it is not moral, but childish and stupid to cover it with the "humanitarian spirit" in the concept of human beings.

"Hmm!" Xiaomeng was very supportive.

Xiaomeng is very supportive of everything that can make Lin You relax and do less work.Only Lin You is not busy anymore, so he can spend more time with Xiaomeng!

"Then use it!"

Lin You finally made a decision.

However, this does not mean that he will be able to release the preemptive version of "Battlefield" this week.

Second-level artificial intelligence technology is not able to create intelligence that is almost like a real person all at once.

Finish!Complete!Do not!Yes!
The full name of this technology is: [Secondary Artificial Intelligence Core].

Why bring the word [core]?
Because there is indeed only one core, and other things need to be "teached now".

If there is any difference from the current machine learning and artificial intelligence technology in the industry, it probably lies in its super plasticity and extremely high learning efficiency.

The advantage is that as long as the teaching is done, the same type of virtual characters can be copied directly and put into use with only some fine-tuning.

Just like the current "Battlefield", the virtual characters of soldiers only need to cultivate a few sub-artificial intelligences of different arms, and they can directly copy more copies, making a large number of virtual soldiers "smart".

This can greatly reduce the sculpting time of virtual characters, and can even be used on NPCs such as "soldiers" that will appear in future games.

However, the single-player campaign development of "Battlefield" consumes energy not only with characters, but also with other things: from the surrounding scenery of the battlefield, to the blood and dust on the soldiers' clothing, and even the burnt smell of smoke and flames in the air ...

Too many details.

If you want to complete even one continuous campaign story, you have to wait until at least next week.

However, Lin You has already accepted it: "Next week will be next week. Just finish the player's sky party and maximize the publicity."

……

After the lunch break, Lin You and Xiao Meng returned to the development world of "Battlefield" to adjust the development plan of the campaign story.

He and Xiaomeng completely took over the most troublesome character behavior and action settings.

The other parts were handed over to Qin Songyun and Fan Ruilai to lead the production.

The entire development team is once again engaged in intensive work.

Yunmeng Marketing Department.

The cooperation negotiations between Feihu and Yunmeng are still in progress.

Zhong Chang had already asked Lin You for instructions, and got a "yes" reply.

But Lin You also said: "Tell them clearly in advance that we cannot infinitely accept third-party games, so we don't have to think about giving us more benefits for the first time to fight for subsequent cooperation, just normal negotiations. "

"We will also accept joint development in the future, so that other games can have the opportunity to be on the virtual reality platform, but the requirements will be very strict."

When Zhong Chang continued to ask "how strict the law is", Lin You replied in a bachelor's way: "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll talk about it when I think about it."

Zhong Chang lost his temper again by Lin You.

He is very clear that the so-called "strict requirements", but "haven't figured it out yet", basically means "depending on my mood and taste."

But soon, Lin You explained the reason to him:

Each of Yunmeng's games must be connected as a whole in the virtual world as much as possible. If any one is missing, the virtual world will be missing a piece.

This means: Players want to get the best virtual world game experience, so each of these games is essential.

This is why, even if the player does not buy the game, the public map of the game will gradually be open to everyone.

But this also means that the player's mirage host needs to carry more and more data.

Lin You used to be very optimistic. He thought that once Yunmeng's basic disk was stabilized, the development tools would be completely opened up, allowing all game companies to develop virtual reality games, and log in to the Yunmeng game platform to rapidly expand the virtual world.

But after a few games, he had to accept the reality——

No matter how advanced the virtual world construction technology is, it must rely on reality and be limited by hardware.

Limited by the current hardware conditions in Daxia and even the whole world, it is doomed that the virtual world cannot expand infinitely.

Therefore, it is difficult to completely release the Yunmeng platform and allow all game companies to develop virtual reality games.

Lin You had to refuse external cooperation all the time, and did not open up technology and platforms-"The Last Moment" was the first special case.

Of course, Lin You did not give up on solving this problem——

On the one hand, Lin You has been quietly investing in hardware development.

Instead of starting from scratch, we directly invested in mature upstream hardware R&D companies in order to achieve faster breakthroughs in related technologies.

At the same time, Lin You is also thinking about: Modular mirage host expansion equipment.

Through external expansion, on the basis of not affecting the operation of virtual reality, the carrying capacity of the player's local device is increased.

In addition to these two tricks, there is a third route: to expand the coverage of "cloud games".

Yunmeng's current game is a dual parallel mode of "local" and "cloud game": the player's personal game world is mainly hosted by the local host; the public map is mainly hosted by the server.

There is also a lot of room for digging in this part of the technology.

In order to realize his goal of "virtual world", Lin You's plan is to carry out the three routes simultaneously at any cost.

Hardware breakthroughs rely on investment in third parties; equipment expansion relies on the establishment of subsidiaries; cloud technology——

On their own!
It's not because of arrogance, but mainly because the cloud technology currently used in the virtual world is strongly related to the underlying construction method of the virtual world, and is also highly related to the construction method of each game world.

The corresponding talents can only be cultivated among Yunmeng's employees, which will take a long time.

So now, I can only rely on myself!
