Chapter 533 Driving the President Crazy

An unmanned car is actually like a computer. The engine, sound wave detector, camera system, crank linkage mechanism, chassis, electrical equipment, etc. are all components of the computer.Among them, the most critical is the operating system and the central processing unit.

The car operating system has mastered various data of the car, can make accurate judgments, and issue orders.

When Tesla developed unmanned cars, it cooperated with companies such as Microsoft, Apple, and Google, and was developing a general-purpose operating system from the very beginning.In other words, this general-purpose operating system is suitable for most cars.

Different cars naturally have different auto parts, but it is enough to update the corresponding parts drivers.For example, if you bought a graphics card for your desktop, you can use it normally after updating the graphics card driver.

Bosch, the world's largest auto parts manufacturer, and Intel, the world's largest chip manufacturer, are both Li Zetian's companies. Of course, there is no problem in cooperation.

And intelligent hardware is also the development trend of the future industry.

Therefore, as long as the operating system is installed on the car, it can become a smart car.If the "hardware" is complete, such as installing acoustic detectors and various sensors, it is easy to create an unmanned car.

In the future, automotive operating systems can also form a standard just like computers!

In fact, since the successful development of Tesla Motors' unmanned car, BMW, the parent company, began to use the car operating system developed by Tesla, and specially made it into a "smart driving treasure box", while " "Smart driving treasure box" is equivalent to a computer host.

To make the car as smart as the artificial intelligence robot Andrew, in fact, it is not difficult to add a siri program to the smart driving treasure box.

However, the significance is extraordinary!

At the press conference, when the CEO of Tesla Motors introduced that the company's latest two unmanned vehicles can have the wisdom of artificial intelligence Andrew as long as the system is updated online, the reporters were all shocked.

With the increase in the number of robots using artificial intelligence Andrew, artificial intelligence has developed rapidly and become smarter, even far exceeding Li Zetian's expectations.

Especially in chatting and expressing emotions, Andrew is becoming more and more like a human being.

"Everyone, please watch the short video clip on the big screen. What changes will happen when Tesla's driverless cars are equipped with artificial intelligence?" On the stage, the CEO of Tesla Motors pointed to the big screen and said.

In the video, the Tesla unmanned car still drove itself from the garage to the owner, but at this moment, the unmanned car spoke.

"Master, hello, Anna is at your service, please get in the car, master."

The voice was sweet, and the people around looked sideways, showing shock, as if to say, wow, this car is so good, and it can talk!Under the envious eyes of everyone, the owner of the car walked into the unmanned car.Immediately afterwards, the unmanned car spoke again.

"Master, where are you going?"

The owner of the car casually mentioned the name of a restaurant.

Soon, the unmanned car replied: "Okay, master, I have planned the best driving route for you, now please fasten your car seat belt, we will start right away."

"Master, do you want to order a song to relax?"

"Master, the movie starring Eve is about to be released, do you need to book a ticket?"

"Amazon will hold an event in a few days, and there are products you are interested in."

……

Netizens and reporters were all dumbfounded.

"Is it a car, or a human? Damn it, as long as artificial intelligence is added to anything, it will be so different! Tesla cars are simply too cool!"

"Niuban, drive this car out, you'll save face!"

"Made, I still want to wait for Toyota to develop an unmanned car. But seeing that Tesla cars are so cute, I don't wait, I will buy a Tesla car now!"

"THIS IS THE DREAM CAR!!!"

"What Lamborghini, Ferrari... I would rather own a Tesla car! Tesla car is the most awesome car in the world, bar none!!!"

"That's right, those millions and tens of millions of luxury cars are useless. Compared with Tesla cars, they are simply weak!"

After the press conference of Tesla Motors, it caused a sensation all over the world and set off a car buying frenzy again.

Many 4S stores are crowded with people.

In just three days, a total of 50 Tesla self-driving cars were sold.

The industry was shocked.

The chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation vomited blood in anger, Tesla Motors became the most popular car in the world, and Toyota Motor's industry status was lost.

Since Tesla cars are selling very well, Li Zetian had to vigorously build charging stations.

The charging station can not only charge electric vehicles, but also charge mobile phones and Andrew robots.

By August, Li Zetian had spent a huge sum of US$8 billion to establish super battery factories integrating manufacturing and R&D in more than 600 countries around the world to manufacture electric vehicle batteries, robot batteries, mobile phone batteries, notebook batteries, solar batteries and other batteries. Smart hardware product battery.

With the rise of Tesla Motors and the proliferation of charging stations, global auto companies are making the transition to electric vehicles.

The price of oil fell accordingly, and the oil companies and the countries that depended on oil were immediately out of luck.

In the future, oil is still very important, but oil merchants can no longer use it to make huge profits. (In daily life, in addition to being used as fuel oil, there are nine major oil products: plastics, asphalt, clothes, synthetic rubber, pharmaceuticals, cleaning supplies, food, lubricants, cosmetics)

Li Zetian Station has now come to the largest super battery factory in North America, and the engineering team has been working here for more than half a month.

"Is that a 3D printer?" Li Zetian looked at a large machine not far away with surprise in his eyes.

A middle-aged man wearing a hard hat is the leader of the engineering team. He nodded with a smile and introduced: "Yes, this is a super-printed robot specially developed using 3D technology. It looks like a robot hovering over a building. The bridge crane above the object, the two sides are rails, and the beam in the middle is the 'print head', the beam can move up and down, forward and backward, for X-axis and Y-axis printing work."

"3D printing technology has long been popular all over the world and has a wide range of applications. It can print electrical parts, prosthetics, insoles, clothes and even pizza burgers. Today, 3D printing technology has become a key research project in various countries."

"In terms of housing construction, 3D printing technology is also widely used!"

The person in charge of the engineering team paused, and then continued: "If a giant 3D printer is used to 'print' a house, ten buildings of 24 square meters can be printed within 10 hours!"

Li Zetian nodded, looked at the giant 3D printer from a distance, and thought to himself, he should increase investment in 3D printing technology!

There are not many people in the engineering team here, but in terms of construction speed, it is even stronger than a large engineering team with tens of thousands of people, because all operations here are mechanized, even including automated robots.

To put it bluntly, Chronos Construction Engineering Company under the name of Li Zetian is probably the company that uses the most high technology in the world.Among them, many heavy-duty intelligent robots, including excavator robots, cranes, and earth-moving truck robots, are under development.

In fact, every machine under Chronos Construction Engineering Company is equipped with a data collection device. As long as there is enough data, artificial intelligence can master this technology through deep learning.

There are many harsh environments on the earth that are not suitable for human construction, so it is best to send robots, such as deserts and oceans.The future scale of Kronos Construction Engineering Company will only get bigger and bigger, and Li Zetian even wants to expand it to the space station, the moon and even Mars.

The weather was hot in August, and the construction site was full of dust. Li Zetian only went shopping for an hour before going back to the hotel to rest.At present, the super battery factories around the world are constructed by Chronos Construction Engineering Company, and the speed of construction will be very fast!

The next morning, when Li Zetian returned to Los Angeles, the CEO of Uber called.

"Mr. Li, Tesla self-driving cars are popular all over the world, and people trust them deeply. I think Uber's self-driving car service can be officially launched!"

Li Zetian nodded, "Well, let's launch it."

"Ok!"

According to Li Zetian's order, Uber reminded users to update their software that night and launched Uber Tesla's unmanned car taxi service.

More than 70% of users who download Uber do not have their own cars, and Tesla driverless cars are currently the hottest car. When everyone sees that Uber provides Tesla driverless car taxi service, they are immediately excited .

"It's cool, I can also take a Tesla driverless car!!!"

Uber users have updated the system one after another, and then used Tesla's unmanned car taxi service for the first time.

At night, the number of Uber orders increased by more than ten times, and Tesla unmanned cars with Uber logos frequently shuttled through the city's busy traffic, becoming a strange landscape.

"Number 110 is at your service."

"Number 9572 is at your service."

"Number 10086 is at your service."

"..."

On Uber's official website, netizens praised it crazily, and the comment section almost swiped the screen.

"This is the most satisfying ride-hailing experience I've ever had! Tesla's unmanned car is like an old driver. It drives very steadily and can tell jokes to amuse me. The two of us chatted all the way!"

"Damn, unmanned cars will flirt with girls, awesome!"

"I have decided that I will not buy a car in the future, and will use Uber and Tesla's self-driving car service in the future."

"With this taxi-hailing experience, it actually aroused my desire to buy a car!"

"Me too, I'm planning to buy a Tesla self-driving car too!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo' and the price of such an expensive car..."

"Is the Tesla self-driving car really that good? I dare not sit on it, for fear of accidents." Some netizens worried.

"Believe me, even if the old driver rolls over, it won't roll over!"

"Riding in unmanned cars is absolutely no problem, and it is even safer. Now many cities are developing intelligence, and the roads are monitored throughout the process. Unmanned vehicles can know in advance which cars are on the road and how fast they are, so that they can make decisions calmly. .”

……

Overnight, the number of Uber users soared, and the unmanned car taxi service became popular, even in short supply.

Seeing the popularity of Uber’s unmanned car-hailing service, taxi-hailing software companies from all over the world contacted Tesla Motors one after another. For a while, orders flew in like snowflakes, and 35 Tesla unmanned vehicles were sold within a week. Automobiles have caused factories to be unable to produce them.

Of course, with the rise of unmanned car-hailing services, taxi drivers and Uber drivers are facing unemployment crises.In addition, many car companies have been severely hit and are on the verge of bankruptcy.

Uh, these are not things that Li Zetian should have a headache for, but the President of the United States.

At this moment, President Gal, who was staying in the White House, almost collapsed.

Why is the law and order in the city becoming more and more chaotic?

Why is the eighty-year-old lady naked ~ dead on the street?
Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature?

Watch Attack on the President of the United States...
