Chapter 911
red was on the sidelines like a little child, wailing naughtily.
In fact, when she first came out a few months ago, she did not behave so humanely, or because three days ago, Li Yi and Li Er Quan had upgraded her intelligence.
Now RED, with an intelligence equivalent to a 14 or 15 year old human, and also has her own emotions to some extent.
Li Linfei ignored her and instead swept his eyes at the guests on the stage and began to speak.
"This time, I am very happy to see so many friends coming to the product launch held by our company. I would like to thank the heads of state and ZF and their wives, as well as my colleagues in the business community, experts and scholars from all walks of life, and all the ladies and gentlemen who were able to come and make this hotel the most talked about location in the world, and of course, today, my company and I will not let you down either."
After spending four or five minutes chattering about some opening pleasantries, Li Linfei quickly got down to business.
The red on Li Linfei's right side disappeared and was replaced by a bright, colourless chip that had been enlarged hundreds of times.
First of all, let me introduce to you the first new product that our company is going to showcase at this launch event today."
"This transparent chip that you see is called the MS chip, which is a new generation of smart chip that our company has improved from inside the graphene chip, after half a year-long research."
"Why do I say it is a smart chip, because this MS chip of our company is different from all the chips in the market, it has the utility of carrying artificial intelligence and is a real smart grade chip."
Previously, the emergence of voice intelligent assistant in the super generation mobile phone system, then let AI in the mobile phone side of the beginning of the landing from soft to hard, is a typical representative of the further industrialisation of artificial intelligence landing.
And many professional institutions believe that the core chip is the strategic high point in the era of artificial intelligence.
And the chip, as the upstream industry of AI, will be at the forefront of the industry's development.
It can be said that with the development of network information technology, in the next decade or even decades, it is not only the era of artificial intelligence sweeping everything, but also the golden era of the development of a truly intelligent chip industry.
This is because the existence of AI can only be supported if there is a corresponding chip. Without the corresponding hardware, how can software technology find a support point and how can it go about developing?
This is like saying that a modern scientist with high-end mobile phone and computer technology back in the ancient times, but without the corresponding industrial base, it is impossible to manufacture mobile phones and computers anyway.
Without high-end smart chips, there would be no corresponding advanced artificial intelligence.
As Li Linfei's words fell, RED suddenly jumped out again and said with a smile, "That's right, my core areas are all stored in the MS smart chip."
Li Linfei ignored her and instead continued, "First, let's talk about the breakthrough of the MS chip."
"Generally speaking, the physical limit of the gate length fabrication process of semiconductor chips, now represented by silicon crystals, is around 7nm, and if it can be broken through, it is basically applied to other materials."
"With the development of technology, Moore's Law, which used to lead the semiconductor production process, has become invalid, and after our company's research and development, the MS chip you see now has a gate length of 1nm!"
At this point in Li Linfei's speech, a tidal wave of cacophony suddenly arose from the scene.
"What? This 'LS chip' has a gate length limit of 1nm?" "Are you kidding, it's 1nm, I thought it would be great if it was 5nm?"
"My God, does Li Linfei know what he's talking about? In the semiconductor process, 10nm chips have just been introduced, like 7nm and 5nm chips, they're still under research, but he's actually going to market a 1nm chip.
"Amazing, amazing, I read the news before and thought today's topic was metallic hydrogen, but this 1nm MS chip is not much less important than metallic hydrogen, ah."
"A huge breakthrough in semiconductor processes, a 1nm MS chip, this is definitely an unprecedented chip launch."
Generally speaking, the shorter the gate length of a chip, the more transistors can be integrated on the same size chip, and once there are more transistors, then what it means is that the chip area and efficacy is smaller, allowing for smoother computer operations.
After the scene had quieted down a bit, Li Linfei continued, "People may think that this 1nm grid length is unbelievable, and there are many friends who, while surprised, still think that it is never possible."
"However, the facts are in front of us, the birth of AIred is due to the MS chip." "And as I said earlier, this chip of ours is a real smart chip, not one of those products in the market that hang on to the word smart and misinterpret the word smart."
"Secondly, this MS chip of ours is also a state-of-the-art general-purpose advanced microprocessor, with basic components including register stacks, operators, timing control circuits, and data and address buses."
"In addition, I have a major announcement to make regarding the structure of our MS chip, which also differs from conventional microprocessors."
"Generally speaking, the microprocessors of computer chips are 32 or 64 bits, and the more advanced ones can reach 128 bits, but our computer chips, which use more advanced computer algorithms, are compatible with a bit count of up to 1024 bits."
When Li Linfei said this, it caused another commotion in the scene, and many experts who were proficient in computers were staggered, and in their hearts they wanted to refute Li Linfei, but they did not dare to speak freely.
It is no wonder that they were surprised. In fact, in daily life, the 64-bit technology is usually referred to as opposed to 32-bit, and this number of bits refers to the CPU's data width of 64 bits. 64-bit instruction set is the instruction to run 64-bit data, which means that the processor can run 64bit data at a time.
Chapter 912
For example, going from 32-bit to 64-bit may seem like a doubling of the CPU 'word length', but it actually increases the addressing range, maximum memory capacity, data transfer and processing speed, numerical accuracy and other metrics exponentially.
The result is a significant increase in CPU processing power, especially for applications that rely strongly on numerical operations, have huge data throughput and require very large concurrent processing.
Artificial intelligence is not to mention, but in addition the increase is also seen in scientific computing, graphic design, video processing, 3D animation and gaming, databases and various web servers.
However, a higher bit count also means a greater burden on the chip once it is running, and the memory must be large enough, otherwise even a higher bit count amounts to nothing.
Of course, this is not a problem at all for the 1nm MS chip.
Li Linfei continued, "Don't get excited and don't dismiss it yet, listen to me elaborate on the reasons why we can surpass the bit count of current computers by so much, on one hand it is the demand of AI intelligence, it has to be so high to create a real AI, just like the red next to me, the reason why she is so smart is because of her central microprocessor's high bit count."
In fact, red's bit count, compared to 1024 bits, is I don't know how much higher, above the 25th power of 2 anyway, because it is a 3D structured MS smart chip with a gate length of 0.1nm, and not a conventional LS chip.
"Secondly, the structure of our MS chip is two-dimensional, what is a two-dimensional chip? I think experts here who are proficient in computer chips should be able to understand, simply put, it means that the chips you are making now are one-dimensional, irreversible and cannot be used interactively, while our MS chip is able to reverse and interact with information units to a certain extent, and will not be mixed."
Li Linfei explained to this point, on the spot, many experts began to meditate, and after a moment, some of them dawned on us, excited beyond words.
"Yes, that's so right, Mr Li's words have enlightened me!"
"We had been seeking breakthroughs in other areas before, but we simply couldn't get good results, so it was a mistake in the direction."
"But it's not easy to achieve structural compatibility and interaction."
"But Future Technology has achieved it, and if I hadn't come to the scene of this new product launch in person today, I really wouldn't have known that the technological power of Super Dimensional Technology has been ahead of its time to such an extent."
"This MS chip can be at least 10 years ahead of the world by virtue of this 1024-digit structure!"
"It's not just 10 years, it's at least 50 years!"
"50 years is too much, 10 years is yet too little, 20 years is there."
On the stage, Li Linfei's hand moved, only to see the three-dimensional image change to a laptop computer that had been enlarged tens of times.
"It's useless just to talk about it, here comes to show you a computer with a computing speed no less than Tianhe-1, made by our company with this MS chip."
As Li Linfei's words fell, a video measuring the speed of computing began on the laptop screen in three dimensions, including weather operations over several decades and solving a system of equations with billions of variables.
After nearly three minutes of playback, the three-dimensional screen terminates and eventually a number is displayed on it.
2, 2315, 4265, 4521, 1545!
"This ...... is fake!"
"Oh my god, a laptop only!"
"That's too much, how is it possible!"
"This is not just a computer no less than Tianhe-1, it's simply already comparable to a superconducting quantum computer!"
"Yes, the number of operations per second of China's Tianhe-1 is only a trillion times, while this laptop actually reaches two trillion times, it's too exaggerated!"
For the experts at the scene, the numbers displayed on it were extremely shocking to them.
Li Linfei laughed: "A 2, followed by 16 digits, everyone is correct, this computer has reached two trillion times per second, which is a little stronger than Tianhe-1, but of course, it is not as good as a real superconducting quantum computer."
At present, the most powerful supercomputer in China is the TaihuLight, which has a computing speed of 12.5 trillion per second.
The most inferior superconducting quantum computer, on the other hand, is much faster than this computing speed, conservatively estimated at hundreds of millions of times. After all, superconducting quantum computers are already in the category of small superdimensions, and the two are not of the same order of magnitude.
Of course, the world has not yet really born a superconducting quantum computer, even if China has previously announced similar research results, but it is only a laboratory idea, not a real thing.
According to Li Yi's forensics, the only person who currently has a superconducting quantum computer in the world is Li Linfei.
"However, don't look at this laptop, it is a computer that our company has carefully researched, and the manufacturing cost is at fifty million dollars a piece, which is not cheap."
Li Linfei's words made many people's lips twitch violently.
It's simply too cheap. The kind of large supercomputers that people put in large rooms of tens or even hundreds of square meters, with a computing speed similar to yours, or even less than yours, would cost billions of soft-shell dollars to build.
But this one is small, easy to carry, fast, and only costs US$50 million.
As the experts on the scene were jaw-dropping, Li Linfei continued.
"Showing this video is not to show off or boast, it's to tell everyone that the MS chip our company produces not only has the ability to carry artificial intelligence, but can also be used as the core chip of a supercomputer."
