Chapter 644: Making Chips Is Not a Problem

It is estimated that someone said that the load of Qingda Lazy God has reached the upper limit, won't you spend money to rent a server?

Or set up a few more servers casually?

The external web pages of the Lazy God Department have already been transferred to the rented server, but there is really no way to transfer the rest to the rented server.

Lazy, Xiaolan, and Xiaowan are called super programs by Nanming, because these three programs must run on ultra-high-performance supercomputers, and even distributed cloud computing will seriously affect their performance. If you want to rent a server, unless you rent several supercomputers for a long-term lease, you need to rewrite their codes to adapt to different computing environments for different supercomputers, which will consume a lot of manpower and material resources.

As the first "super program" of the Lazy God System, and also the reason for the birth of Qingda Lazy God's supercomputer, "Slacker" is the core and starting point of all artificial intelligence in the Lazy God System, created by Tie Dan.

This terrifying program, known as the Eye of God by the outside world, might have made all intelligence agencies around the world unemployed if Nanming hadn't sealed it at the beginning of its birth. Get out of control again, and the closely monitored future world in science fiction may arrive early. Compared with it, the prism is nothing.

Fortunately, this program is dormant most of the time and is not enabled.

The first true artificial intelligence core "Xiaolao" of the Lazy God System came from the customer service program written by Tiedan for his lazy life, and later achieved great success in the algorithm constantly updated by Li Xiang.

It can be said that Tie Dan, a workaholic, likes manual labor, rough work and heavy work instead of mental work. At the moment, I don’t know where to help people deliver food, do housekeeping, and clean toilets. Smart Myth.

Then, there is the application of artificial intelligence in the professional field. Although "Da Doudou" and its upgraded version "Xiaowan" are the ideas of Wang Ziyang, they all have a lot of code contributed by Tiedan, and the common core.

On the territory of artificial intelligence of the lazy god system, although Wang Ziyang is a rising star, it is still too early to surpass Tie Dan.

Not to mention iron eggs, Li Xiang's contribution is far greater than Wang Ziyang's.

If this is a pie chart, Tie Dan dominates half of the country and eats half of the pie, and Li Xiang picks up the rest and leaves a small corner for Wang Ziyang.

But in terms of the impact on public opinion, these two people are not as good as Wang Ziyang.

Wang Ziyang released the beta version of Xiaowan Scientific Research Assistant to attack Wan Scientific Research. The effect of the attack was good, but the spread was too strong. Now the user has broken through the 200,000 mark.

Beijing University, a key diffusion unit, has one, and Qingyang University basically has one.

In other universities and scientific research institutions, there are also many people who want to try something new, both at home and abroad.

Beta members are originally for testing purposes, but people took advantage of the loopholes and registered a lot, taking up more resources.

Of course, although the functions of the largest beta version seem to be powerful, in fact, the resources consumed are not particularly large. After optimization, it consumes almost the same resources as the "lazy life" life assistant.

But the full-featured "Xiaowan Assistant" is a completely different concept. The complexity of the problem and the data retrieved are not at the same level. Not to mention the engineering version of Xiaowan Assistant, which also has a camera and the function of motion analysis.

It is much more difficult for computers to understand pictures than for computers to understand language, let alone let them understand dynamic pictures. Fortunately, the starting point of Lazy Technology's artificial intelligence is facial and motion recognition.

Of course, the self-learning characteristics of Lazy God's artificial intelligence also determine that while serving so many objects, it is also constantly learning and absorbing data, and constantly improving its own data core, which is another huge resource expenditure.

In addition to these versions, Nanming also wants to develop a Qingyang University special edition for Qingyang University, which can be regarded as a benefit for his classmates. It is similar to the lowest-end membership edition, and more resources will be needed at that time.

But let alone open more membership versions now, it is almost stuck now.

The most important thing about the relocation of the lazy gods is to find a place to build a new supercomputer in Dongbin City.

Now that the embargo is imposed, I am afraid that this progress will be greatly delayed again.

what to do?

Nan Ming was also a little tangled.

Stretched computing resources, embargoed chips, and the prelude tasks that must be completed for the relocation...

I originally planned to plan the skill tree for the next point, but now I have no choice, there is only one possibility, and that is super calculation!

Are you not embargoing chips? We do it ourselves!

"You call the people who are still in Qingyang, let's discuss it." Nan Ming said.

About five minutes later, Su Wenjie, Su Hongyi, Han Dong, Wang Ziyang, Li Yuncong, and Qin Ye came to Nan Ming's office and held a closed-door meeting.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Yuncong couldn't help shouting: "Aren't these Yankees just chips? What's the big deal? We designed them ourselves."

Su Hongyi sighed. In terms of the chip industry, the Yankees are really amazing.

In this world, there are two kinds of chip companies, one is called intel, and the other is called other.

As the world's most powerful general-purpose chip giant, intel leads the world for two years!

This is still a technology that has been developed. Intel also has a saying that it is called R&D generation, reserve generation, and release generation. Although the technology improvement is slowing down now, it can still be crushed for a lifetime.

AMD, which was once able to compete with intel, has now even sold its own factory.

Everyone knows that i3 is Intel's mid-to-low-end model on the PC platform. However, on the PC platform, there is a saying called i3 Mo Miao Quan, not to mention i5, i7, and even the embargoed Xeon.

But if it's out of reach, it's really not the case.

Foundries are all over the world. There are domestic foundries that can manufacture 28nm processes. The world’s largest chip foundry, TSMC, is also in Bay Bay. 16nm technology has matured for a long time. Samsung’s 14nm is not mature but can be used. Come up with a design Come, choose a process, and you can customize a variety of CPUs with money.

Now Intel's products are only 14nm, which doesn't seem far away.

It is not manufacturing that blocks domestic CPUs, but the other three obstacles, 1. Design; 2. Patent barriers; 3. General programs.

Silicon-based semiconductor chips are completely developed on the basis of other people's systems. The design concepts and patents are too far behind. In terms of versatility... there is no system that adapts to your chip, and your functions cannot be used. ?

But this kind of limitation is mostly limited to desktop platforms and supercomputing platforms. The situation in China is much better. There are also domestic supercomputers including chips and frameworks, which are quite strong.

But the software is far from being able to adapt. Compared with the hardware, the gap between the software is what makes people desperate.

"Manufacturing chips is not a problem for our Lanshen Technology." Nan Ming glanced at everyone, showing strong confidence.

design? I have black technology.

Patent Barriers? I have black technology.

General procedure? I don't even need black tech. The strongest thing about Lazy God Technology is its powerful software capabilities.

"The question is, what kind of chip do we want to build." Nan Ming said, "Everyone knows that Moore's Law is about to reach its limit."

Moore's Law says that when the price remains constant, the number of components that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit will double every 18-24 months, and the performance will also double.

This process is not sustainable wirelessly. When the pitch of transistors is only 7nm, the impact of quantum effects on chips has to be considered. (To be continued.)
