Chapter 263 True Artificial Intelligence

"The docking authority has been tested, and now you can start the intelligent assisted development of Yinglong EDA at any time."

May 2020, 5, Warwick Technology Headquarters, Shenzhen City.

In the office area on the floor where the Yinglong EDA industrial software project is located, Zhang Tao listened to the reports of the employees below, and gradually calmed down his uneasy mood. He took a deep breath and gave an order.

"let's start."

As the words fell, the engineer sitting in front of the computer screen immediately started operating.

Zhang Tao stared intently, eager to know the final result.

Although he now knows that Deepin Technology's artificial intelligence model Benben has been iteratively upgraded to version 3.0, but it is still unclear to what extent it can be achieved.

If the efficiency of software development can be greatly improved, everyone will undoubtedly be happy.

Otherwise, the plan is declared a failure.

At this moment, a voice from behind caught his attention, and he subconsciously turned around to look.

"Artificial intelligence can never replace humans. What you are doing now is just useless."

All he could see was a middle-aged man in a suit walking in. No emotion could be seen on his face.

Zhang Tao obviously knew the man in front of him. He frowned first, and then replied: "The use of artificial intelligence to speed up the development of the Yinglong project was approved by Ren Dong himself. In addition, I don't think what we are doing now is useless." .” I completely disagree with the other party’s point of view.

The man was not angry when Zhang Tao refuted him, but just emphasized his point of view again.

"No matter how strong artificial intelligence is, it can't match the efficiency of human beings, not to mention that the existing artificial intelligence can't reach that level at all."

"That's not necessarily Mr. Zhou."

Zhang Tao shook his head calmly and expressed his opinion: "The artificial intelligence model developed by Deepin Technology is already very strong."

Regarding the company president Zhou Qin in front of him, Zhang Tao really didn't know what to say.

It's a headache every time I bring it up.

Although they are in the same company, the two of them have completely different concepts.

Zhou Qin has always insisted that the development of science and technology will mainly depend on human beings in the future, and artificial intelligence will play a very limited role.

The performance in science fiction movies can only exist in movies.

There is no such thing as a brain.

Originally, the company decided to speed up the development of Yinglong's EDA project to deal with the current situation. His proposal at the meeting was to increase the investment of technical personnel.

As long as more outstanding relevant talents are recruited, the development speed will definitely speed up.

However, the problem is that in addition to increasing project costs, the most critical thing is the shortage of talents.

It is difficult to recruit outstanding talents in related fields.

The number of personnel engaged in EDA software development in the country is limited, which is completely incomparable with the overseas Xinshikaideng.

If this plan is really adopted, I am afraid that few people will be recruited in a few months.

After all, what they want is to increase the speed of development, which requires new recruits to get started immediately.

This experience alone can eliminate many people.

If it is to cultivate relevant talents, then there is no problem in recruiting newcomers.

Unfortunately, this is not the case at the moment.

In this case, Zhang Tao put forward his own suggestion at the meeting, wanting to use the artificial intelligence model developed by Deepin Technology to assist.

Many people who can participate in this kind of meeting have technical backgrounds. Naturally, they understand the gold content of the deep technology artificial intelligence model that caused a global sensation before, and it may really help.

With the powerful learning speed of deepin artificial intelligence, it only needs to make it familiar with the Yinglong EDA under development, and the software can be automatically improved.

After talking about his proposal, the plan was successfully passed and implemented immediately under the votes of Director Ren and other executives.

For this reason, Zhang Tao took people to Jincheng urgently.

Fortunately, the process went smoothly, and he successfully persuaded Xu Yun to cooperate with Deepin Technology.

Speaking of this, Zhang Tao didn't have the desire to continue talking with Zhou Qin, so he couldn't help but fell silent and just stared ahead.

Anyway, it won't take long for the result to appear, and then it will naturally prove that his proposal is correct.

Even if Zhou Qin doesn't support it then, he will have nothing to say in the face of reality.

However, Zhou Qin obviously had no intention of stopping, and then continued to speak.

"Deepin Technology's artificial intelligence technology is indeed world-leading, but when it comes to developing large-scale industrial software like EDA, I'm afraid it's still more difficult for humans than it is."

But this time it was not Zhang Tao who answered immediately, but Zhong Lingling, a researcher sent by the Deepin Technology Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

"It seems that Mr. Zhou doesn't know much about our artificial intelligence. I believe he will surprise you later."

Zhong Lingling suppressed the anger in her heart, forced a smile, and answered before Zhang Tao.

After all, Huawei's personnel are stupid and ignorant of artificial intelligence. Now that the two parties have established a cooperation, Deepin Technology Lab must send personnel to follow and connect.

In this way, if there is an emergency, it can be resolved in time.

Zhong Lingling was sent here.

She followed Zhang Tao from Jingzhou to Shenzhen City.

At first, she didn't really want to carry out this task. After all, the laboratory is currently developing an intelligent driving project, and participating in key projects of the laboratory is definitely better than such a trivial matter.

The key is also a kind of self-improvement.

Mainly, she knows very well in her heart the ability that Benben, who has iteratively updated to version 3.0, can display.

If it is just to assist in software development, there is basically no need for her to help.

It is nothing more than a formality to express the sincerity of deep technological cooperation.

Her plan was to help Zhang Tao and the others get on the right track as soon as possible, so that she would not have to stay in Shenzhen City.

If you return to Jingzhou City in time, you can continue to participate in the research of the intelligent driving project.

As a result, I heard the conversation between Zhang Tao and Zhou Qin in the morning.

Zhou Qin does not believe in Benben's ability, which is equivalent to questioning the artificial intelligence laboratory.

More importantly, Benben was developed by Xu Yun, which makes it even less likely to see others belittle it.

After all, in the eyes of everyone in Deepin Technology, Xu Yun is the greatest person who can continuously create miracles.

Zhou Qin is not stupid to be able to hold the position of president. Although he is very suspicious of Zhang Tao's plan, he will not openly argue with people from Deepin Technology.

In addition to being hindered by the influence and strength of Deepin Technology, it is also because of the cooperation between the two companies.

After listening to Zhong Lingling's words, she just replied calmly.

"I'll wait and see."

Zhang Tao's lips moved in response, but finally chose to swallow the words that came to his lips and did not answer Zhou Qin's words again.

Soon the three of them fell silent, and only the sound of typing on the keyboard remained in the entire space.

To determine the specific help of artificial intelligence models to software development, comprehensive data is definitely needed.

It is definitely not possible to have immediate results.

It was under such circumstances that Zhong Lingling, Zhang Tao and Zhou Qin did not leave at noon.

We even had lunch together.

It wasn't until close to five o'clock in the afternoon that the preliminary data was finally counted.

……

"Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhou, our test results are out."

The manager of the technical department quickly came to the office with a document, greeted the two leaders, and immediately announced the good news.

Although he didn't tell the specific test results, judging from the unconcealable joy and excitement on his face, it is estimated that the test results are relatively satisfactory.

Zhang Tao is even more aware of the character of his manager, and it can be said that he never hides his emotions.

How I feel every day is basically written on my face.

Seeing this, he basically had a judgment in his heart, but in order to prove it to Zhou Qin, he began to preach quickly: "How about the test results?"

He didn't choose to take the document and check it out by himself.

Faced with Zhang Tao's inquiry, the manager naturally did not dare to hesitate, and immediately told the contents of the document.

"According to our actual test today, if we use the artificial intelligence model to assist development, the development speed can be increased by 50.00% compared with the previous development."

"And this is relatively conservative data."

"Based on today's efficiency, we will be able to completely complete the development of Yinglong EDA by the end of the year at the latest."

After listening to his subordinates word for word, Zhang Tao could no longer control the joy in his heart.

He stood up from the sofa excitedly.

"Great."

"it is good."

"Okay."

After saying good-bye three times in a row, after he calmed down a bit, he turned around to express his thanks to Zhong Lingling who was beside him.

"I really want to thank your company for your help this time."

"You're welcome, we will definitely try our best to complete the things Mr. Xu explained."

"Besides, this is something that is conducive to the development of domestic semiconductors." Zhong Lingling answered with a slight smile on her lips.

It would be a good thing to make outsiders clearly aware of the power of deep technology artificial intelligence.

At this time, Zhang Tao's hanging heart was completely let go.

There is no doubt that this data has far exceeded his estimate, proving that his plan is possible, and this can be regarded as a perfect answer for the company.

Compared with Zhang Tao and Zhong Lingling who were relaxed and happy, Zhou Qin next to him was full of surprise.

"50.00% increase speed?"

"It's absolutely impossible."

Muttering words in his mouth, it seems that he is trying to find evidence to overthrow this result.

What is the concept of an improvement rate of 50.00%? Assuming that there are currently 50 technical staff participating in the project, reaching this figure is equivalent to continuing to recruit [-] people to join.

And the recruited people must be able to enter the state immediately.

Although it is difficult to recruit relevant outstanding talents in a short period of time, with the assistance of Deepin Technology's artificial intelligence, there is indeed hope that Yinglong's EDA development will be fully put into the market in a short period of time.

But he really didn't believe that this could be achieved with the current level of artificial intelligence development.

The next second, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly he strode up to the manager of the technical department, and directly snatched the file from the other party's hands.

It's just that as he flipped through the pages, his face became more and more ugly.

Later, he raised his eyes and asked, "Are you sure there is no problem in the testing process?"

As soon as the words came out, the joy on the technical manager's face gradually disappeared, and he looked very impatient.

"Mr. Zhou."

"What do you mean by that?"

In any case, he is Zhang Tao's subordinate, and it is a happy time to complete the task now. Being questioned by Zhou Qin like this shows that their technical level is very limited.

But you must know that they have been developing Yinglong EDA for so long, how can they get the development speed wrong.

After hearing what the other party said, Zhou Qin also realized that he had made a mistake, because the data on the file did reach 50.00%.

Although this data is hard to believe, it is true.

This means that Deepin Technology's research on artificial intelligence has reached a very high level.

If the outside world knows Benben's true ability, it may cause a lot of panic.

Just as his mind was racing and thinking about this, Zhong Lingling beside him no longer remained silent, and made some supplements to the actual capabilities of the artificial intelligence model.

"The 50.00% improvement rate is only for today, and as Benben accepts enough data, the software development speed will continue to increase."

"I don't know what Mr. Zhou thinks about our artificial intelligence now?" The last sentence was asked Zhou Qin.

By this time, Zhou Qin had already lost his previous persistence, and his original concept had already changed with the data on the document.

After hearing what Zhong Lingling said, she was stunned for a few seconds before she came back to her senses.

Very emotional and sincere answer.

"It's really strong."

"It turns out that this is the power of real artificial intelligence."

"My previous concept was wrong."

Zhou Qin did not continue to follow the same path to the end, but chose to follow his heart and make changes.

In the past, he was not optimistic about artificial intelligence because he had never seen the power of real artificial intelligence.

Today he knows.

This kind of super efficiency and speed is indeed incomparable to humans.

If used properly, it is bound to accelerate the development of human civilization.

"I'm going to report the good news to Director Ren." After listening to the conversation between the two, Zhang Tao also reacted, and after receiving the documents again, he planned to go to the chairman's office to inform the situation.

-

In the following time, with the help of Benben, Yinglong EDA successfully got on the right track and the development speed continued to increase.

Zhong Lingling also returned to Jingzhou to continue to participate in the research and development of the intelligent driving project after arranging the affairs of Shenzhen City.

And just as the domestic EDA software is becoming more and more mature, the lithography machine, which is the most critical link in the high-end chip manufacturing industry chain, has finally begun to usher in progress.

"The problem of the light source is the most important part of the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, so let's start from here to solve it."

Xu Yun in the office stared at the 430 points on the light curtain in front of him, secretly thinking about the direction of use.

The higher the level of knowledge he masters, the fewer points it will cost to turn on brain overclocking to solve problems. Having grown to this level, he thinks he is no longer weak.

What's more, compared with the field of biogenetic medicine, he is better at optoelectronics.

Only with these more than 400 points, the research and development of the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine must be completed.

Prioritizing the development of a light source with sufficient power was a resolution previously passed at the project meeting, and Xu Yun did not want to change it temporarily at this time.

The thought stayed here, and he stopped hesitating in the next second, and the overclocking of the brain was officially turned on with the slight movement of consciousness.

Instantly the familiar feeling swept through my body again.

The world around me seemed to be at a standstill, and I felt like I was in a vacuum without hearing any sound.

The brain becomes extremely active, and it seems that as long as you think about the problem of extreme ultraviolet light source, various solutions will be extended.

Xu Yun has entered the brain overclocking state many times, and is very familiar with its application method.

Know how to spend the least amount of points to solve the desired problem, so immediately focus on and choose the most suitable one for the current research situation based on the extended solutions.

After all, this also needs to consider the level of materials and whether such light sources can be manufactured.

If you choose a solution whose technological level is far higher than that of human civilization, it will not be possible to manufacture it at all.

Even if you can use your brain to overclock and continue to study in depth, the points required will still be a huge number. You must know that the gap between different civilization levels is absolutely astronomical.

"Tin Vapor Light Source."

"Xenon light source."

"Xenon Fluoride Light Source."

……

As multiple light source research directions were considered and extended, Xu Yun quickly chose one of them and continued to study its specific manufacturing process and technology.

Right now his brain is like a sophisticated quantum computer, automatically simulating the manufacturing process of the light source.

Make sure to master all the technical key points.

I have to say that this feeling of being able to discover the truth with just one thought is indeed very attractive, making people unable to extricate themselves from it. If he didn't have enough points and time to support overclocking, he would even want to stay here forever. in a state.

Because he had already explained to the people in the project team before entering the brain overclocking state, no one came to disturb him during the process.

After Xu Yun basically mastered the entire manufacturing process of the selected light source solution, he resolutely quit brain overclocking.

When the slight voice sounded next to his ears again, and the time on the desktop computer screen started to jump again, he took a big breath of fresh air in order to adapt to the transition between the two states as soon as possible.

After about half a minute of touching him, he finally returned to normal, with a happy smile on his face.

"Finally, the light source problem has been solved. Academician Luo and the others will probably be surprised when they see my plan."

He murmured secretly, and then he returned his attention to the light screen summoned in front of him.

Check the points consumption.

As the numbers in the column of light screen points came into view, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are 280 points left, that is to say, it took 150 points to turn on the brain overclocking this time."

"It's within the expected range."

Facts have proved that his guess is not wrong. After the continuous improvement of his own strength, the number of points required to open the brain overclocking has been greatly reduced compared to the beginning.

It only costs 150 points to solve the problem of the light source of the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.

Calculated according to this consumption rate, the remaining points are enough to support the other two difficult problems.

Then he checked the time in the lower right corner of the computer screen, and found that two hours had passed since he turned on the overclocking of his brain.

In other words, he still has six hours left to overclock his brain.

After making a rough estimate, he finally felt relieved.

"Integration and overclocking time are basically within expectations, which should be enough to develop a domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine."

As the person in charge of the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine project this time, I was unable to generate a task.

Naturally, points and task rewards cannot be obtained.

If the points are not enough to turn on the brain overclocking for a long time, then the delivery time of the domestic lithography machine will definitely be greatly extended.

Fortunately, the current situation is still under his control.

Knowing this clearly, he immediately recalled the light source manufacturing technology in his mind and began to write a plan...
