The diva and I cross each other

Before we knew it, it was already August.

The technical department of Zhuoguang Technology has been adjusting the design plan based on the market research results of smart door locks and cameras and the product positioning of its own team.

Finally, in August, a plan was put forward that satisfied both Luo Ming and Rong Mu.

Zhuoguang Technology's technical reserves for image recognition are definitely leading the country, so Tong Mingwei's plan is to highlight the image recognition algorithm in the product as much as possible.

At the same time, they used the company's AI big model to train a speech recognition software, so that they could get a smart terminal - Xiaoguang speaker - that can communicate with users completely without any obstacles in voice.

Then, with the Xiaoguang smart terminal, you can perfectly link the sweeping robots, cameras, smart door locks, wifi, curtains and other smart home products produced by Zhuoguang Technology.

Now it is generally believed in the market that smart interactive speakers are the interactive entrance and terminal of future smart homes, so Tong Mingwei added smart speakers.

Today, Zhuoguang’s AI model is already very mature, and it won’t take much time for Zhuoguang Technology to develop a speech recognition algorithm.

As long as the company's large AI model is used as the main model, the training database required for the new speech recognition algorithm can be built in no more than one month.

According to the training efficiency of the image recognition algorithm, the new speech recognition algorithm will be able to support speech recognition processing by early September at the latest.

After confirming the subsequent development plan for the full smart home, Rongmu began to communicate with some electrical appliance manufacturers, hoping to integrate as many home appliances as possible into Zhuoguang Technology's smart home system.

Rongmu is very clear that since Zhuoguang Technology has far more technological accumulation in image recognition and AI than domestic and foreign Internet companies, Zhuoguang Technology should continue to delve deeper into the field of image recognition and achieve more results in this technology. Otherwise, when its peers catch up, Zhuoguang Technology will have lost its advantage.

This is also the main reason why Rongmu went to negotiate with those home appliance manufacturers.

However, Luo Ming did not spend much time on this aspect. His main energy was still focused on the big AI model.

Since its emergence until today, the Internet has actually undergone countless reforms and upgrades, and has produced many products and platforms with huge numbers of users, helping people solve the problems of communication and information exchange.

In China, there are BAT and Zhuoguang, the four Internet giants that have built or are in the process of building an ecological chain, as well as Meituan and Didi, which started with a single service and expanded bit by bit.

There are a series of Internet companies abroad that have built their own ecological chains, such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as there is an Internet connection, humans can obtain information anywhere and communicate with any of their peers around the world.

It is precisely because the Internet covers an increasingly wide range that AI and big data have come into being. It can be said that without the Internet, AI and big data would lose most of their meaning of existence.

Therefore, in Luo Ming's view, the development of the Internet and artificial intelligence complement each other.

It is only 2016 in this world now. When he traveled through time in his previous life, it was already the end of 2023, and there were only a few days left until 2024. In the first 21 years of the 24st century, the Internet has brought tremendous changes to human life.

The Internet has helped users and businesses create considerable commercial value.

Big data has created huge value in the fields of advertising and e-commerce.

The emergence of 4G and 5G networks has enriched the forms of information available to netizens.

The personalized network services customized by individuals have spawned a wide variety of Internet products and demands, and promoted the development of social economy. These are the conveniences brought by the Internet, which can also be said to be the dividends of technology.

Luo Ming worked in this line of work in his previous life. From graduation until he traveled through time, he had been doing Internet-related work. After traveling through time, he was still doing this kind of work.

After so many years of work experience, Luo Ming is very sure of one thing, that is, this wave of technological dividends brought by the Internet will not last long.

Luo Ming remembered that in his previous life in 2022, domestic Internet companies had already carried out large-scale layoffs, especially Alibaba.

Luo Ming talked to several colleagues and heard a lot of different reasons for layoffs, but many of them gave the same answer: "The company doesn't need so many programmers anymore."

Luo Ming thought that this was probably because netizens’ demands would always reach saturation.

No matter how fast the Internet is, how accurate the big data is, or how diverse the services are, user needs are only so great, and that’s when user needs are met.

The demands of netizens have been saturated, and Internet companies that meet their needs will no longer be able to expand. There will no longer be a need for so many programmers, and the technological dividends of the Internet industry will come to an end.

Faced with this situation, the solution proposed by some foreign Internet companies is to constantly create demand for netizens.

Just like the metaverse that was very popular before Luo Ming traveled through time, it was creating demand among netizens.

Of course, some people are beginning to focus on new areas, just like Google is using cloud computing technology to crack the human genome map.

Microsoft is working on technology that uses programs and algorithms to create artificial neurons.

These are all alternative approaches.

Other companies have focused on artificial intelligence technology, the most famous of which are OpenAI and their ChatGPT.

Luo Ming is not sure what the future path of Zhuoguang Technology will be, so he can only take the most stable path.

Currently, Zhuoguang Technology has technological leadership in AI and big data, and it is undoubtedly the safest path to follow.

With AI and big data as the core, we will continue to upgrade the relevant algorithms of TikTok, making it as popular as in the past. Then, we will go abroad and serve as the vanguard of breaking the tools of public opinion for the superiors. This is the most reliable way to gain both fame and fortune.

Then Loming planned to use part of the company's funds to decipher the human genome map like Google did, and at the same time invest in biopharmaceutical engineering.

Again, in Luo Ming's opinion, chips and aerospace are not as important as saving a person's life. Life is priceless.

Just a few small achievements in biopharmaceutical engineering can save millions of lives.

It just so happened that Lin Shuwen studied biology, and her parents were experts in this field. They had dedicated their lives to China's biopharmaceutical engineering, and they would definitely be willing to continue on this path.

At that time, Zhuoguang Technology will pay to help Lin Shuwen's parents and the scientists of the biopharmaceutical engineering to build a research institute, promote the development of China's biopharmaceutical industry, and save more lives. This way, it will not be a wasted time travel. (End of this chapter)
