From scrap mecha to science fiction paradise

Chapter 222 Atlas Acquisition Plan
"Are you really sure?"

Noelle had remained silent because he was worried that Lin Yu was planning something.

It was not until I saw him really walk out without looking back that I couldn't help but ask.

Similar to the Zhong family father and son, she also thought that Lin Yu was trying to break through Zhong Qihang's psychological defenses.

"Just prepare my reward and wait and see."

Lin Yu threw back the cooperation agreement that Noel had given him earlier, and then left the Inspection Office directly.

After a busy night, it is now dawn.

However, most of the people in the Heavenly Court Mecha Group have not rested yet.

Mo Dexian, Bai Wei and Wang Xiaoliu were silently carrying out post-war repairs and maintenance on Feijiang and Putianying.

Even Xiaotian followed closely behind, helping to deliver tools and parts to the best of her ability.

Jova, Miller, and Field Shadowmoon were arranging patrols and night shifts to guard against the aftermath and remnants of today's events.

Alena was taking Xu Xiaotu with her and preparing a midnight snack for everyone, which was a simple celebratory banquet.

Looking at the people working in an orderly manner, Lin Yu couldn't help but stop for a moment with emotion.

Then, take a step and walk into it.

"BOSS!"

"Hi boss!"

"Brother Lin!"

Everyone greeted each other one after another.

Lin Yu also responded with a smile and made a few jokes.

Then he went to the mecha workshop to take a look and told Mo Dexian and the others not to rush to repair the Flying General.

After all, he got the almost complete body of the Viking Axe, so he would definitely have to upgrade it as a flying general.

At the same time, the system structures should be redesigned based on the materials available.

Going for repair and maintenance at this time would be a pure waste of time and energy.

"How is it, how much atlas data have been collected?"

After hanging around Mo Dexian and the others, he went to find Miao Xiaomiao.

Miao Xiaomiao is responsible for various programs and systems on a daily basis. For convenience, her work area is basically located in the mecha workshop, a circular workstation filled with various electronic equipment and a large number of computer groups.

There were originally a large number of electronic screens, but they were replaced with holographic equipment before. Holographic images can be generated at will in the workshop, so the physical electronic screens became unnecessary equipment and were thrown into the warehouse next door.

"As soon as I got back, I was urged to work. As expected, he is a vampire capitalist."

Miao Xiaomiao played a huge role in driving the Skyhawk tonight to help defeat the Viking Axe. When she saw Lin Yu coming, she pretended not to notice him, but in fact, she couldn't hide the look of seeking praise on her face.

But when she heard Lin Yu asking about work as soon as she came over, she pouted in displeasure.

"I'm just asking about the progress. I don't mean to rush you to work."

Lin Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He reached out to her head and combed her black hair into a mess. Her fox ears trembled slightly. "You performed well today. I'll remember your contribution."

"You're just saying nice things, who wants to be the first to take credit? No, don't move around, it's very troublesome to comb your hair."

The little fox girl didn't really care about any credit. After her expectation was satisfied, her insignificant temper disappeared instantly. Her cheeks turned slightly red, and she looked embarrassed and disgusted, and slapped away the mischievous hand.

"Can you answer my question now?"

Lin Yu said with a smile.

“It’s not ideal, any slight change in EEG means something different.

Moreover, due to individual differences, emotional fluctuations, physiological factors, etc., even if the meaning is the same, the brain electrical activity will fluctuate within a certain range..."

When talking about serious matters, Miao Xiaomiao gradually became serious.

The map that Lin Yu asked about naturally refers to the foundation of the third-generation machine and the core of brain-wave interaction technology - the electroencephalogram.

In short, it is a comparative translation, and different EEG fluctuations express corresponding meanings.

The invasive brain-computer interaction device in her brain is essentially an implanted sensor device that captures her brain's electrical activity and translates it into various easy-to-understand instructions.

What activity is translated into what instruction, this is the EEG spectrum.

It is like the language translation between thoughts and machines.

Therefore, if you want to copy and master the EEG interaction technology, there is actually a simple way, which is to continuously observe and record, and record all translation comparisons, which is naturally equivalent to copying the entire EEG spectrum.

This is also the safest way.

After all, what Miao Xiaomiao has is an invasive device, which is implanted in the brain and even deeply integrated into the brain tissue.

He couldn't possibly open her brain, and other electronic and programmatic technical means could easily trigger the internal defense and encryption mechanisms.

There is almost no such key technology that does not come with encryption and self-destruction mechanisms.

A device that penetrates deep into brain tissue, even if it only discharges slightly from its own micro-nuclear battery, is enough to turn a person into an idiot.

He is not the kind of person who can be completely cold-blooded for the sake of profit, and he would not do such a thing.

Therefore, the only method that can be used is the most conservative, simplest and most direct method, which is continuous observation and recording.

It’s just that the translation dictionary is just a more figurative description.

The actual situation is countless times more complicated.

Individual differences, fluctuations in physical signs, mood swings, and even subtle external electromagnetic disturbances can affect and interfere with brain electrical activity.

So although it seems like a control, the EEG activities shown each time are actually not exactly the same.

Furthermore, human consciousness is often very abstract, such as subtle changes in emotions, imaginary images in the mind, complicated and random thoughts, etc. It is basically impossible for even they themselves to make an accurate description.

In more practical terms, a simple physical movement, or the manipulation of an object, different directions, different strengths, extremely subtle changes in strength, or even cleverness, etc.

Even the slightest change will result in completely different EEG fluctuations and meanings.

This actually involves a series of preprocessing techniques such as filtering, noise reduction, and feature extraction.

It is difficult to accurately analyze these simply by comparing records, and even if you try hard, there will be huge errors and mistakes.

At this level, let alone being the interactive technology of a third-generation machine, I’m afraid it’s even inferior to the most basic somatosensory interaction.

Furthermore, in addition to outputting consciousness, brain-computer interaction devices also have the function of converting audio, video, and even various sensor-encoded information into five-sense information and transmitting it directly into the brain.

This involves the conversion of machine codes into real five-sense signals, and involves a series of coding and processing technologies.

Therefore, it is impossible to completely replicate the EEG interaction technology just by recording and analyzing it.

All we can say is that we have collected some existing data and avoided many complicated or cruel human experiments, but there are still many difficulties that need to be overcome.

But, again, he couldn't be so cold-blooded as to gamble with Miao Xiaomiao's life.

The stupid way is always a way, it just progresses more slowly and is more complicated.

This is much better than other people who have no access to brain-to-electrical interaction technology.

During this period of time, or in fact since Miao Xiaomiao joined, they have basically been conducting observations and records in this area whenever they have some free time.

Of course, I really started to invest more energy in the design and development of the Flying Eagle. Today is the top priority.

This is the first actual combat of the Flying Eagle. A large number of behaviors, emotions, and sensory changes that are difficult to imagine and simulate in daily life will occur in the fierce battle, which can greatly promote the recording of the EEG spectrum.

Brain-wave interaction technology is related to the third-generation aircraft, the Tiandun Sword Technique system, and a series of subsequent research and development plans, so Lin Yu cannot help but attach great importance to it.

Unfortunately, although this is relatively great progress, it is still a drop in the bucket compared to the complete EEG data.

"Actually, it's not impossible."

Miao Xiaomiao seemed to have thought of something at this time and came up with an idea.

"any solution?"

Lin Yu became interested.

"AI training, let's train an AI directly, use my brain wave fluctuations and actual output command codes as training data, and train the AI ​​to perform recognition and judgment."

Miao Xiaomiao proposed his own method: "If the trained AI can complete high-precision comparison recognition, it means that it has sorted out the most accurate EEG spectrum and preprocessing algorithm, and we can then extract it from the AI."

"good idea!"

Lin Yu's eyes lit up after hearing this.

Even from his point of view, Miao Xiaomiao's suggestion is very feasible.

As mentioned earlier, AI’s judgment and recognition are essentially guessing games.

Humans and machines are completely different in terms of cognition. It is impossible for humans to teach AI anything. AI is essentially guessing puzzles through algorithms.

For example, let AI distinguish whether an object is an apple or a pear.

It is impossible for a human to explain and express the concepts of apples and pears to a program, let alone teach AI how to distinguish them like teaching a child.

Hence the training.

It is like a tyrannical teacher who is not responsible for teaching. He only gives questions and reference answers, lets AI do the questions by itself, and then compares them with the reference answers.

In the vast sea of ​​questions, let it explore and summarize on its own how to judge, or more precisely, how to guess more accurately the parameters and formulas.

This method produces a black box. The person who designs it may not know the specific situation inside, and the answer formed is not a true deduction, but a guess.

It’s just like the mnemonic some people use when answering multiple-choice questions in exams – among three short and one long, choose the longest one.

What is trained is a set of parameters that allow it to guess more accurately and as close to the correct answer as possible.

But no matter what, even if it is a guess, it is a guess that is infinitely close to the correct answer. With sufficient training data and number of times, it can achieve extremely high accuracy.

In other words, by training this AI, we will have a translation expert who has thoroughly mastered consciousness and mechanical language and is close to perfection.

He didn't want to take risks on Miao Xiaomiao, but for a trained AI, whether it was testing or disassembling it, he could do whatever he wanted.

By then, with the extensive knowledge and engineering skills he has mastered, and with the assistance of Miao Xiaomiao and Xue Siqiao, he will be able to use this "translation expert" as a test product to re-derive and design a real EEG spectrum and preprocessing technology.

But there is a problem.

"To train this level of AI, the computing power required is extraordinary."

Lin Yu looked at Miao Xiaomiao.

If you want to maintain true accuracy and high precision, then the requirements for this AI are very high.

To train AI of this level, extremely huge computing resources and reference data are needed to enable it to conduct massive amounts of training repeatedly and synchronously.

“That’s why I’m bringing it up now.”

Miao Xiaomiao also nodded, and after looking at Lin Yu, he paused in frustration: "...Well, actually, I just happened to be inspired by this."

"Now, we have no choice but to take over the supercomputing center from Zhong Qihang."

Lin Yu naturally knew what she meant by being inspired, and they smiled at each other.

Nothing is more suitable for training AI than the supercomputing center in Zhong Qihang's hands.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the possibility of controlling this supercomputing center that Miao Xiaomiao thought divergently and came up with this solution.

"Today you and Sister Xue each gave me a super gift."

Lin Yu sighed and reached out his hand to comb Miao Xiaomiao's hair into a mess.

Supercomputing center.

Algorithm chip technology.

There are also feasible solutions to truly master brain-to-electrical interaction technology.

Xue Siqiao and Miao Xiaomiao really gave him unexpected surprises today.

Plus upgrades to the Viking battle axe and combat command skills.

Tonight’s harvest is far from being bountiful.

"It's too early to say these things now. We still have to see whether that dead woman can deal with Zhong Qihang's supercomputing center."

Miao Xiaomiao said this with some hypocrisy.

She and Xue Siqiao are best friends who tease each other and also have a bit of a love-hate relationship. She never admits defeat verbally, but she knows in her heart that the one who really made the greatest contribution this time is Xue Siqiao.

After all, it was she who proposed the idea of ​​seizing the supercomputing center on a whim, and she actually realized it.

Even the invasion technology of the Yinbing Armor was born out of his suggestion.

If she hadn't suggested designing a completely new soul-binding chain system, and if she hadn't controlled the Viking Axe and finally hacked into the Zhong family's supercomputing center, even if she had thought of this method, it would not have been realized in the short term.

If the computing power is insufficient, training an advanced AI will be an extremely long process that is simply impossible to achieve in the short term, and may even take years.

The funds required to build a supercomputing center by yourself are extremely terrifying.

"Well, I'll go up and check on the progress first. You can also go to bed early. No matter how important the matter is, there's no need to rush at this moment."

Lin Yu nodded, told Miao Xiaomiao to go to bed early, and then went to the rooftop of the base.

The Nantianmen naturally stopped at the private airport on the roof.

Xue Siqiao and Hawke also stayed there, seizing the time to conquer the supercomputing center.

After all, before going to the Audit Office, Lin Yu didn't know whether Zhong Qihang had handed these over to the Audit Office.

If the Audit Office gets involved, things will become extremely troublesome.

Therefore, it is obvious that they want to seize the time. The sooner they break into the supercomputing center, the sooner they can get it in their pockets.

"Two great heroes, stop busying yourself and have a cup of milk tea first."

Lin Yu specially took two cups of milk tea purchased by Alena from the table, and placed one cup each in front of Hawke and Xue Siqiao after boarding the Nantianmen.

"Forget about the milk tea. I'm trying to lose weight. Switch it to coffee to keep me energized."

Xue Siqiao was not polite at all. She quickly operated the large amount of code that was flowing down in front of her and asked Lin Yu to change it.

"No coffee, I don't want you two to die from overwork."

Lin Yu pulled a chair and sat down next to Xue Siqiao, saying, "The Audit Office can't do anything to Zhong Qihang, and they won't get involved in the affairs of the Supercomputing Center. Just take your time."
