Chapter 848 Xiao Ai Upgrades!

【(﹃`)】

Floating around Lu Zhou, the drone controlled by Xiao Ai was shaking up and down, left and right, and turning in circles,

Lu Zhou speculates that this strange posture is probably the unique way of coquettishness of the artificial mentally retarded, but it is a bit hard-core and difficult to understand.

Looking at Xiao Ai who was making noise beside him, Lu Zhou coughed lightly and said.

"Don't make trouble, I'll study how this thing works first."

This thing is not a toy for children, but probably the only commercial quantum computer in the world that can be applied to the industrial field in a true sense, not the kind in the laboratory that has just surpassed the early days. A guinea pig for classical computers.

If this game goes bad, let alone he can't afford the loss, human civilization can't afford it either!

Xiao Ai: [Yes, but master... I'm afraid you'll spoil it! QAQ]

"how is this possible!"

As soon as this sentence was said, Lu Zhou suddenly realized that this broken system didn't even give him a pamphlet of instructions, so after a few seconds of embarrassment, he coughed softly and asked, "...you will use this something?"

Xiao Ai: 【No! But after letting me in, it will definitely happen! 0v0]

Xiao Ai: 【Moreover, you can save the step of installing the system! 0v0]

Is it so awesome?

Seeing that Xiao Ai was so confident, Lu Zhou finally made a decision after thinking about it for a while.

"Then please."

Informatics is not his strong suit.

Although he has improved the level of informatics, the subject level does not equal the knowledge reserve, it only determines the acceptance speed of knowledge in this field and a very abstract analysis ability. If he does not spend a lot of time learning, his current programming technology is actually comparable to that of Undergraduate level is no different.

Writing small programs is fine, but frontiers like quantum computers...

If you don't put in a lot of work, you might even find the door hard to find.

Xiaoai: [Leave it to me! ()]

Almost at the moment when this line of text flashed across the screen, the VGA logistics vehicle and the mechanical arm on the wall started to move.

First, the case was moved from the central open space of the laboratory to the wall, and then the robotic arm connected to the wall moved up and down to identify the various power cables and power conversion ports that came with the case, and quickly connected them to the correct position.

Lu Zhou was terrified after watching that operation, he was afraid that this guy would ruin his "new computer".

Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen.

For his new home, Xiao Ai is obviously more cautious than him. After installing the case, he even freed up his "hand" to use tools to tailor a radiator with a water-cooled and air-cooled system for this case. rack, and then carefully put the chassis on it.

Xiao Ai: 【Master, master, installation is complete! The time to witness the miracle is coming~φ(≧ω≦*)]

Lu Zhou: "Don't talk nonsense, turn on the phone quickly."

The signal light on the chassis flickered, and the connected screen quickly lit up.

However, the screen is lit up, but it is black and there is no movement.

Staring at the pitch-black screen, if it wasn't for the jumping cursor in the text box in the upper left corner, Lu Zhou would have thought that the device had crashed.

After continuing to be silent for a while, Lu Zhou looked at the drone floating beside him and asked.

"...is this the end of the matter?"

Xiao Ai: 【Huh? Already done it? 0v0]

Lu Zhou: "...Is there no desktop?"

Xiao Ai: [But this is a command-line operating system... Of course, if the master needs it, I can also design a graphical operating system for the master... Wait, Xiao Ai suddenly feels a surge of prehistoric power Out Σ(°△°|||)︴】

The text flashing on the screen was suddenly interrupted, Lu Zhou was slightly taken aback, and then hurriedly asked.

"……What’s wrong with you?"

"Xiao Ai!"

The moment the voice fell, the chassis of the quantum computer suddenly released a blue light.

Looking at this astonishing scene, Lu Zhou's eyes widened, but soon he discovered that the light did not come from the quantum computer, but from the illusion in his field of vision...

Or rather, the system.

In less than half a second, a translucent dialog box popped up from his field of vision.

[Congratulations to the host, the "artificial intelligence" branch has upgraded its technology. 】

[Current Level: LV3]

Branch technology of "artificial intelligence"!

It was upgraded here!

Lu Zhou felt excited.

The last upgrade seemed to be when he just came back from Princeton. Although he also moved Xiaoai once later, it seemed that he did not meet the conditions for the upgrade that time.

But LV3 actually needs a quantum computer to upgrade!

This upgrade condition is too harsh, right?

I stretched out my index finger and clicked on the translucent dialog box, and the soon-folded dialog box unfolded downwards, listing the requirements for advancing to LV4.

[Upgrade condition: Collect enough data from human social behavior. 】

The upgrade condition of LV4 does not seem to be to continue to improve computing power, which also made Lu Zhou really relieved.

This is already a quantum computer sent by a higher civilization. If he is asked to move Xiaoai to a new house, even if he really develops quantum computer technology, I am afraid it will be impossible to find a "bigger house" in the short term.

It's just that this "collecting enough data from human social behavior" is too abstract, right?

Is it enough to register a few social accounts and watch the sand sculpture group friends pour water and blow them away, then hang up quietly and wait for the article to be read?

Looking at the empty progress bar, Lu Zhou couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Xiao Ai, who had been silent for a long time, finally responded. The drone parked in mid-air swayed left and right, and floated in front of Lu Zhou.

Xiaoai: 【Master, I'm fine. ()]

Stretching out his hand and swipe in mid-air, the translucent dialog box disappeared. Lu Zhou looked at Xiao Ai with a "shy" face, and asked.

"...how does it feel after upgrading? Has anything changed?"

Xiao Ai: [I feel like I've become smarter! ()]

Lu Zhou: "..."

I don't know if it was his illusion.

he always feels...

It seems a bit of a loss to use such a good thing to upgrade this guy?

...

Because it couldn't be disassembled, Lu Zhou's enthusiasm for this "beyond" X-1 quantum computer suddenly halved. After throwing it to Xiao Ai to tinker with, he left the laboratory and took the elevator directly to the top floor. director's office.

Sitting at his desk, he thought he might as well deal with the backlog of documents, so Lu Zhou dug out the materials submitted by various research institutions this month from the filing cabinet.

Just when he was about to flip through the books one by one, there was a knock on the door of the office.

After closing the document in his hand, Lu Zhou temporarily threw it on the corner of the table.

"come in."

With an excited expression on his face, Yang Xu, director of the Institute of Computational Materials, opened the door and walked in.

Seeing the excited Yang Xu, Lu Zhou froze for a moment, then asked with a smile.

"What good news excited you?"

"Of course that's great news!" Walking quickly to Lu Zhou's desk, Yang Xu laughed and put the report in his hand on Lu Zhou's desk with excitement, "Remember The carbon-based chip project we established two years ago?"

With a slight movement in Lu Zhou's heart, he immediately sat up straight from his office chair.

"Is there a result?"

"There are more than just results..." Looking at Lu Zhou, Yang Xu took a deep breath and said excitedly, "We have already figured it out!"
