Chapter 46 This is what true class thinking looks like
The time was up, Ji Hong didn't even bother to eat, and went directly to the conference room.

Unless there is a major unavoidable situation, he is very punctual. Missing a meal at noon obviously does not fall into this major situation.

Sitting on his seat, he grabbed the milk tea in front of him and drank a few sips. Originally, Ji Hong didn't like drinking this stuff, but today, Quan decided to replenish his energy.

It was also the first time that Ji Hong felt that the post-00 administrative girl who often had some magical brain circuits in the company was not so outrageous - as long as she had the ability to work, preparing fruit drinks and milk tea for the conference room was a trivial matter.

"I see everyone is here, so let's get started."

Ji Hong was straightforward, without even making an intrusion: "In the morning, I met Mr. Zhang from Moore Technology downstairs, and he also talked about the need to change the way of thinking in the thinking-like architecture.

“GPU performance and hardware scale are part of it, and the computing architecture is even more important than the hardware scale.

"If we say that the traditional computing architecture is equivalent to a program-controlled traffic light, it is meticulous and sets red, yellow and green switching according to time.

"So, now that the traffic lights have been replaced by smart ones, what do you want to do?" Asking this, Ji Hong took another sip of milk tea.

"Monitor the traffic flow of each traffic light at the intersection and intelligently adjust the time." The speaker was a young man from Moore Technology.

"Yes," Ji Hong affirmed: "Your current version of the CTCA architecture has achieved this level, but don't you think it's just the name of the Thinking Computing Architecture?
"Does dynamic adjustment of time have anything to do with thinking? This is big data! Scheduling based on data statistics. What is thinking? Not only data, but also analysis.

"Take the traffic light as an example. You should at least take out the traffic flow data of the adjacent intersections in the four directions of the traffic light and analyze it together, right?

“We must not only look at the current situation, but also observe and predict future trends. Predictably plan and reserve all the stream processing cores of the GPU and even the load balancing between multiple graphics cards.

“Even just as traffic flow is cyclical, with morning and evening peaks, and holiday peaks, there are also some rules for the project’s demand for computing resources.

"Maybe this pattern is not as obvious as the morning and evening peak hours of traffic flow, but when we schedule GPU resources, we can predictably consider changes in data communication and resource requirements based on trends, and then schedule more accurately or even reserve them?

“Is predictability difficult? It might have been difficult in the past, but now we have AI that’s like a mental model.

"As long as the architecture runs for a period of time, using AI, we can summarize even non-periodic characteristics to assist our CTCA architecture. This is truly class thinking."

"Okay, let's all take a break and digest it. We will talk about the impact of inter-chip communication loss in a while, and how to evaluate and deal with it."

……

"Nuo, look, the guys are all very motivated, saying that they want to improve the efficiency of the CTCA architecture by another 3%. I knew it was right to come to you. You must know the best about similar thinking."

Ji Hong worked in the office for a while, and it was past seven o'clock when he came out. He saw Zhang Jian again in the lobby on the first floor.

"Mr. Zhang, have you done your job well? On behalf of the company's mid-level shareholder Ju'er Zhengneng, who holds 5% of the shares, I officially express doubts about your work!"

Ji Hong joked: "You are such a busy CEO, why are you hanging around my place every day? If you really have something to do, come up to me, what do you call this? Sit down? Follow me?"

Of course Zhang Jian has a lot to do, but an architecture that can perform better than NVIDIA at the same scale is worthy of his attention. He is waiting for Ji Hong here and nothing actually happens. If anything happens, he will call him early. .

"I don't even know what to say to you. The expectation exceeded 5%. Adding 3% will only make it 8%. Are you concerned?"

"You're so talented?" Zhang Jian was unhappy:
"Do you have any misunderstanding about the word 'Yecai'?
"If the CUDA ecosystem is used in a compatible manner, it will be 70% of NVIDIA's at the same scale. Now not only is there no loss, but it can exceed 8%. Do you call this 'only'?"

"Mr. Zhang, if you are holding a golden mountain, don't compete with beggars to see who can get more food. You must have your own pursuits." Ji Hong also continued:

"Okay, there are a lot of things going on at Moore Technology, so stop staring here. The CTCA development team has moved here, and I will help you take care of it. As long as I'm here, there won't be any problems. "

"That's what I've been waiting for." Zhang Jian said with a smile, "I've been out for so many days, and there's a lot of things going on at the headquarters, so I'm going back today."

"Let's go, let's go!" Ji Hong waved his hand impatiently: "There's no need to come back!"

...until he was far away, Zhang Jian still murmured in his heart: What does it mean to pursue? Am I not big enough? Or is CTCA’s potential far more than this?

Zhang Jian also has a technical background and has been at NVIDIA for many years. Even if the analog thinking model cannot know the essence, he probably has some feelings: How strong will it be?

When will mind-like ideas cease to be top secret, at least accessible to close partners?

Maybe it can be done when it’s not advanced enough to show off!

This shouldn’t take long for Juan Er Smart Technology.

Zhang Jian turned around and looked back at the Science and Technology Innovation Park: No, I still have to come here often!

Zhang Jian also has pursuits, especially the pursuit of technology and the rapid rise of domestic GPUs - otherwise he would already have endless enjoyment from the position of vice president of Nvidia, so why would he take the risk to start a business?
But now, with Juaner Smart Technology right in front of him, he not only wants to come here often, he even has the idea of ​​finding a suitable time to move his office here.

……

"Mr. Zhang is really interesting."

When she got home and told Cheng Hui what happened today, she couldn't help laughing.

"Yes, the company team is expanding rapidly and there is indeed a shortage of space. I originally had the idea of ​​renting the upper and lower floors."

Ji Hong also lamented that it makes sense that some people can succeed. They not only have vision, but also have courage.

"He wants to..." Although Cheng Hui didn't ask, it was obvious what his purpose was.

"It's just about the CTCA structure. Let me pay more attention. If the CTCA works well, Moore Technology's profit will be several thirty million more per year."

Ji Hong also smiled: "However, I am already very concerned about the thinking-like architecture. This is the first step in launching the Intelligent Computing Center. How could I not pay attention to it?
"Zhang Jian should also know. Maybe he just wanted to find an excuse to give a gift, so I accepted it calmly. If I didn't accept it, it would arouse suspicion."

"My husband is awesome!" Cheng Hui sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Many people can earn 30 million, but given it as a gift, it seems that this CTCA is very important!"

[Recognized, inspiration for solving ultra-large-scale GPU cluster communication problems +1]

"Huh? The information I got in my mind this time is less, and more of the supplement and improvement of the solution I thought about at noon."

Ji Hong discovered a little difference, but he didn't get too entangled. He quickly came to the study and recorded these details and inspirations.

……

Half an hour later, Ji Hong came out of the study. Cheng Hui hadn't finished cleaning up yet, but he also said with a smile: "Hubby, today's time is a little short!"

"What? Time is short? I think you are... talking about this later!"

……

"Husband, you are so strong!"

"Physical energy recovery +1, physical fitness +0.1!"

Ah, another wonderful night.
