Scholar's Cultivation System Panel

"The effect of model training is still not satisfactory. At present, there is still a big gap between us and overseas artificial intelligence laboratories. If there is no breakthrough in this situation, I am afraid that the laboratory will be withdrawn by the company."

On January 6, 2020, Jingzhou City, Deepin Technology Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in Longfor Science and Technology Park.

Yan Yuming, who was appointed as the head of the laboratory, was standing in front of the data analysis equipment and listening to the report.

You can see the worry on the eyebrows of the researcher sitting in front of the screen next to him.

Apparently they were not going well.

Deepin Technology is undoubtedly the hottest domestic technology company that is at the forefront of technology. Countless researchers are proud to join Deepin Technology, because this is the stage that is most likely to realize their dreams, which is completely different from other commercial types.

Previously, Deepin Technology invested a huge amount of money and took huge risks to build three new laboratories.

Undoubtedly caused an earthquake in the industry.

Let everyone see once again Deepin Technology’s determination to research technology.

Yan Yuming once served as a professor in a well-known overseas university, engaged in the fields of computer vision and artificial intelligence. After returning to China, he worked in a leading Internet company and founded an artificial intelligence research institute.

Unfortunately, compared with the artificial intelligence models developed overseas, there are still many shortcomings in China.

Just when he was about to retire as the dean, he suddenly received an invitation from Deepin Technology Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

He admires Xu Yun very much, especially the intelligent image restoration algorithm and intelligent auxiliary diagnosis system developed by Xu Yun. It can be seen that Xu Yun has a very high talent in the field of artificial intelligence.

Therefore, without thinking too much, he resolutely decided to join Deepin Technology Artificial Intelligence Lab.

Served as project leader.

Another important reason for making this choice is that he can see that Xu Yun does not pursue wealth too much.

In recent years, leading domestic Internet companies have begun to develop their own artificial intelligence models.

But the purpose of most of them setting up research teams is mainly to occupy the market in advance and bring greater benefits to the company.

Simply put, it's about making money.

This has caused many projects to be put into the market to earn gimmicks before they are completed.

Some laboratories are responsible for their own profits and losses, which eventually leads to the break of the capital chain and the interruption of research.

However, Deepin Technology was able to spend a lot of money to set up a new laboratory in the rapid development stage of the company, which is enough to prove that Xu Yun does not have much pursuit of money and only wants to research new technologies.

Facts have proved that the decision he made was not wrong.

Not long after several laboratories were put into operation, the solid-state battery laboratory took the lead in announcing technical breakthroughs.

It has continuously promoted the revolution of the battery industry and solved the funding problem, which has once again proved Xu Yun's talent.

Yan Yuming thought more than once that with Xu Yun, they will be able to develop a world-leading artificial intelligence model sooner or later.

As a result, after Xu Yun solved the solid-state battery technology, he was directly responsible for the national key projects, so they could only research and explore on their own. In addition, the artificial intelligence laboratory was built after the solid-state battery, so it is normal for the project to progress slowly.

It's just that recently he and other researchers in the laboratory are feeling more and more pressure.

In addition to the fact that the company's laboratory and the biological research laboratory next door have yet to produce results, there are also many people on the Internet who are constantly urging, wanting to witness the powerful results of the artificial intelligence laboratory.

Under such circumstances, it is conceivable that if the artificial intelligence model finally developed fails to meet expectations, it will definitely disappoint everyone in the outside world.

The key is to have an impact on the company's reputation.

"You can rest assured that the company will never cancel our artificial intelligence laboratory."

"Mr. Xu's original intention of establishing these laboratories was not for profit."

At this moment, Yan Yuming reached out and patted the researcher's shoulder, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he comforted him: "But we still have to work harder and hand in a satisfactory answer sheet as soon as possible." After saying this, the whole person's expression Immediately became dignified again.

Naturally, everyone is aware of Xu Yun's character, and the words of worrying about the cancellation of the laboratory are nothing more than casual remarks.

What I want to see most is that the laboratory can develop a sufficiently advanced artificial intelligence model as soon as possible.

As Yan Kaiming's voice fell, the girl wearing glasses sitting in another seat suddenly spoke and brought the topic back on track.

"Professor Yan."

"We received a notice that Mr. Xu will come over today. Our current artificial intelligence model is not perfect enough."

Concern was evident in his tone.

As members of Deepin Technology, they are more attracted by Xu Yun's powerful personality.

After almost half a year, Xu Yun must have some achievements when he comes to inspect the laboratory.

Otherwise, wouldn't it appear that their abilities are limited.

"Dr. Zhong doesn't need to underestimate himself. Although our current artificial intelligence model is not as good as overseas, it is not inferior to the artificial intelligence of major domestic Internet companies."

"Shouldn't our goal be to be global?"

"Doctor Ren."

Zhong Lingling glanced at the boy beside Yan Kaiming and asked.

After speaking, he began to talk again without waiting for the other party to respond.

"Whether it is Google's artificial intelligence tools or the GPT-3 version of the chat robot launched by OpenAI Labs, there are very good points in terms of language models and logical reasoning."

"We must face up to the gap with them. Only in this way can we grow up quickly."

After listening to Zhong Lingling's words, Ren Xudong suddenly wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost.

His mouth opened slightly, but in the end he swallowed the words back into his stomach and couldn't open his mouth.

Because Zhong Lingling was right.

He is also very clear about the OpenAI laboratory, which is a non-profit artificial intelligence laboratory headquartered in San Francisco.

The GPT chatbot launched by the other party was updated to version 3.0 in a short time.

According to the current trend of development, I believe that a new version will be launched soon to lead the world. The key is that every time they update the function, they will undergo earth-shaking changes.

According to industry analysis and the information released by the other laboratory, the next version will be able to lead in the field of artificial intelligence.

Yan Yuming listened to the discussion of the two researchers, and he was not worried about anything other than a faint smile on his face.

After all, he is also an old man in this field, and he knows that young people are often full of vigor and drive.

That's what keeps you motivated at work.

However, there are some things that cannot be rushed, otherwise it is very likely that the result will be unsatisfactory.

"Let's say one thing less, both of you. We do have a gap, which requires everyone to work hard to catch up. Our laboratory has not been established for a short time, but I believe he will stand on top of the world."

Yan Kaiming took the initiative to speak in a conclusive manner, and Zhong Lingling and Ren Xudong fell silent.

On the other hand, the other researchers next to them seemed to have been beaten up, and cheered everyone up.

"Professor Yan is right. The solid-state battery laboratory next door can lead the world in technology and promote the revolution of the battery industry. Our laboratory in the same company can certainly do the same."

"It would be great if Mr. Xu could stay in the lab to guide us. With Mr. Xu's talent, the progress will definitely be much faster."

When the artificial intelligence laboratory was first established, because there were still many problems in terms of personnel, Xu Yun would occasionally come here to give guidance besides being responsible for the research of solid-state batteries.

It's a pity that after Mr. Xu successfully conquered the solid-state battery technology, he went to study his own outstanding youth project.

Although I came back for inspection this time, it seems to everyone that I took the time to come here.

I guess it won't be long before I leave.

The main reason is that some of them have won outstanding young talents before, and they know that the duration of this project is four years.

At this point in the exchange, everyone will continue to devote themselves to their work in the following time, optimizing the existing artificial intelligence model to ensure that Xu Yun will not become mentally handicapped when he inspects.

...

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Xu Yun rushed from Dihao Garden to Longfor Science and Technology Park under the escort of the driver Wang Pengfei.

After dealing with the materials and equipment in the project workshop in the past few days, he returned to live at home and spent a good time with his mother and Chen Shihe.

It is also worth mentioning that Chen Shihe liked the robot dog Benben he brought back.

It's like an electronic pet.

He couldn't laugh or cry about this, thinking that it is an excellent robot dog that can play an important role in military detection and transportation, but now it is just used as a pet companion for cuteness.

Unexpectedly, it really became a gadget in his mouth.

Xu Yun has not been to the artificial intelligence laboratory for a long time, and he noticed many strange figures when he walked in.

In the next second, they all stopped their movements and got up to say hello.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

Moving his eyes on everyone's face to remember everyone, Xu Yun responded with a smile and waved his hands.

"Sit down, everyone, don't be cautious about what to do."

After saying this, after everyone sat down again, he turned his attention to Yan Kaiming next to him.

Take the initiative to care.

"I don't know if Professor Yan is still used to it here, is there anything inappropriate?"

When the three laboratories were first established, the most urgent need was outstanding talents in related fields.

And Yan Kaiming was recommended by Meng Songyan's wife Zhang Hongqin, and he was considered the most suitable candidate at that time.

Yan Kaiming was naturally much older than Xu Yun, but he kept his stance very low, as if he regarded Xu Yun as a top authoritative talent in the industry and gave him absolute respect.

"Thank you Mr. Xu for your concern. I am very happy to work here."

"It's not in the company, it's fine to use the academic name in the future." Xu Yun quickly answered and corrected Yan Yuming's address.

Yan Kaiming didn't refute this, and shouted something while talking.

"Professor Xu."

After simply greeting and condolences to everyone in the laboratory, it will naturally come to the work progress reporting procedure.

Yan Yuming handed over this work to Zhong Lingling.

"The artificial intelligence model we developed is currently mainly a language model that can answer questions about communication, and the subsequent version update will be optimized into a multimodal model."

"Mr. Xu, you can try it yourself."

After listening to Zhong Lingling's words, Xu Yun looked at the screen next to him. He was no stranger to this female postdoctoral fellow.

As the first batch of researchers to join the laboratory, the other party is excellent in both ability and personality.

In particular, when studying artificial intelligence, he still maintains thick black hair, but many boys with hair loss in the laboratory are envious.

During this period of time, he trained Benben and fed him a lot of language data.

Compared with the beginning, it is much stronger now, and it is possible to realize normal communication and dialogue in the dialogue window, and there are fewer and fewer cases of mental retardation.

Such a situation made Xu Yun more convinced that the elementary artificial intelligence he got from the random rewards could indeed grow through learning.

So as soon as he finished solving the door frame robot armor, he couldn't wait to come to the laboratory.

It is planned to let Benben access the laboratory, relying on the massive information provided by the data center here to make him learn and grow quickly.

Thinking of comparing Benben with other artificial intelligence models, Xu Yun did not refuse Zhong Lingling's invitation.

"OK."

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he responded to the sentence, and then sat down to experience it for himself.

He asked a few questions in the dialog box on the screen, which was basically the same as asking Benben.

It's just that the answers given by the artificial intelligence model are far from each other.

The most obvious feeling is that the language style of the artificial intelligence model in the laboratory is fixed, but Benben has operability, that is, through a detailed description in advance, a clear role or scene is specified for the artificial intelligence, and Benben can use this role and scene to answer.

From this point of view alone, Benben already has the potential to lead the global artificial intelligence model.

If you continue to feed it various data such as pictures and videos, it will grow to a new height after learning.

At this time, Zhong Lingling, Ren Xudong, Yan Kaiming and the others standing next to Xu Yun didn't know what Xu Yun was thinking, but they felt a little relieved thinking that the model was finally not mentally retarded.

It's a pity that this relaxation didn't last for half a minute, and several people were shocked by what Xu Yun said next.

Xu Yun stopped his hands and raised his eyes and said suddenly: "The current artificial intelligence model project will be temporarily cancelled." There was a firm and unquestionable meaning in the words.

But when these words reached the ears of the researchers present, it was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

After all, for researchers, it is self-evident that their unfinished projects are stopped halfway. Almost without any hesitation, he asked for opportunities, hoping to continue the project.

"Boss Xu."

"Our model is gradually being optimized, and it would be useless to cancel the previous work at this time."

"Yes, Mr. Xu."

"Give us some time, and we will definitely be able to develop a world-leading artificial intelligence model."

"The project cannot be canceled at this time."

Yan Yuming also comforted Ren Xudong in the morning, saying that the company's artificial intelligence laboratory is non-profit and will never cancel the laboratory.

As a result, it only took an hour to become like this.

It is true that the laboratory has not been cancelled, but stopping the project means that all previous work is in vain.

Hearing what Zhong Lingling, Ren Xudong and the others said, he had no choice but to speak to persuade them.

"I think the current artificial intelligence model has great potential and should continue to be researched. In addition, I would like to know the reason why you decided to stop this project, Professor Xu?"

After listening to everyone's words verbatim, Xu Yun immediately understood that they had misunderstood him.

So he quickly explained.

"You have misunderstood. I have seen everyone's efforts and contributions to the laboratory. Of course, the decision to stop the current project this time is not because you are not doing well enough. The main reason is that I have developed a complete artificial intelligence. model, and then we need to use laboratory resources to feed massive data to train the model and make it grow.”

Xu Yun finished these words quickly, and then fell into a short silence, leaving time for others to digest the information.

You can see that everyone who was originally nervous and surprised had a confused expression on their faces after hearing these words.

Even Yan Kaiming, the head of the laboratory, couldn't avoid it.

"Independent development?"

"A complete artificial intelligence model?"

As the information in Xu Yun's words was slowly digested, Zhong Lingling repeated in a low voice, her eyes were full of surprise and unimaginable unbelievable that this is something that one person can do.

Their entire laboratory team has been busy for so long, and they have only initially developed the artificial intelligence model.

But Xu Yun now says that he has developed an artificial intelligence model.

The key is that he has been working on the outstanding youth project recently, where did he find the time to study artificial intelligence.

Yan Kaiming was the first to react, and quickly opened his mouth to ask Xu Yun about it.

"Is this true?"

"certainly."

Xu Yun returned a mysterious smile, and then took out the clumsy laptop under everyone's gaze, and started to connect to the server and data center in the laboratory.

After receiving Xu Yun's accurate answer, Yan Kaiming also fell into thinking.

He knew very well that it was impossible and reasonable for Xu Yun to lie to them, which meant that Xu Yun had indeed developed an artificial intelligence model by himself.

He is not surprised that Xu Yun has this ability, but the efficiency is really amazing.

After all, the amount of source code that the artificial intelligence model has is very large, and there is not enough time to knock it out.

"It's just so puzzling."

...

"etc."

"Could it be that Professor Xu has been developing this artificial intelligence model for a long time?"

"It must be so."

Just when Yan Kaiming was surprised by this, a light suddenly flashed in his mind and thought of a possibility.

Xu Yun definitely did not start developing artificial intelligence models after the establishment of the artificial intelligence laboratory.

Perhaps when the first intelligent image restoration tool came out, the artificial intelligence model was already being developed, and the establishment of an artificial intelligence laboratory was also a long-established plan.

If this is the case, it means that Xu Yun's artificial intelligence model has been polished for several years.

Everyone knows that Xu Yun solved two world mathematical problems and new materials such as lidar in a short period of time, and made Deepin Technology grow into a well-known technology company.

Under such long-standing examples, how amazing should the artificial intelligence model that took the longest time to polish be?

Thoughts just stay here.

Yan Kaiming was already overwhelmed with excitement in his heart, and his eyes were fixed on Xu Yun's operation.

It was as if waiting for the birth of an epic weapon.

Although Zhong Lingling, Ren Xudong and others next to him didn't understand the situation, they could also realize that this matter was not as simple as they thought, and their expressions became serious.
