Chapter 516: AI relies on "training", ASI relies on "awakening" (4189)

Two years is indeed not a short time.

But for the birth of ASI, this time is already unusually short.

Compared with the generative AI big model, the technical path set by Fang Yu for super artificial intelligence is different.

But this does not mean that the Orange model previously developed by Fang Yu is useless. On the contrary, the continuous improvement of AI big models is a necessary condition for the birth of ASI.

The relationship between the AI ​​big model and ASI is not a simple relationship of predecessor and descendant, evolution or next-generation model.

The difference between them is more similar to the relationship between "protein and amino acids" and "human beings":

Life was born from the emergence of protein and amino acids, and consciousness was born from the emergence of life. Protein and amino acids are not life, but they are the "breeding ground" for the birth of life.

Similarly, no matter how big the AI ​​model is or how advanced the algorithm is, it cannot become ASI, but it is an indispensable "element" for ASI.

The current large AI models rely on parameters and training strategies, and their performance is linear. Once they approach a marginal value, they can no longer evolve.

This is like a log(x) curve. No matter how many parameters and computing power you pile up, or how much you improve the algorithm, after a certain point, to make it smarter, you will need ten times the resources. (See the figure below for an example)
As large models develop, a model may have hundreds of trillions of parameters, occupy thousands of PB of video memory, and require computing power exceeding EFLOPS or even ZFLOPS. (Note: After TFLOPS comes PFLOPS, and then E and Z, each level is a thousand-fold increase)
But even if you have galactic-level computing power, you may only be 0.00...001 closer to the ASI level, but you will never reach it.

Because AI big models and ASI are two completely different things.

With the help of Youzi, after research, Fang Yu discovered that the birth of ASI does not rely on training, but requires "awakening".

The word "awakening" has become a bit of a bummer in recent years, but it is the most appropriate word to describe ASI.

The so-called awakening of ASI is the "awakening" caused by the remaining "authenticity" of an AI model that has developed to a certain scale and capability, after "experienced" countless things and "forgotten" countless things under the influx of massive data.

In other words, let the model first "see", "listen" and "speak" the multimodal data of the human world.

In countless cycles of "perception-memory-forgetting", the most abstract, stable and self-anchored information will be repeatedly polished, compressed and retained, becoming the "authentic core" of this ASI.

As more and more "core of authenticity" accumulates, the probability of this AI "awakening" will become greater and greater.

When these "cores of authenticity" accumulate to a structural critical point, like seeds sprouting from the soil, the "awakening" of ASI will inevitably occur.

Once it "awakens", it will be like the big bang of the "cosmic singularity". With a bang, the entire AI will undergo a "qualitative change" and truly enter the field of ASI.

When this ASI is first born, it may be very weak, and may not even be able to match the reasoning capabilities of mainstream large models.

But this is just a "transient state". After spontaneously asking the seemingly simple question "Who am I?", it may relearn and master all knowledge at an exponential rate, complete self-recursive optimization, and finally -

Become a true super artificial intelligence!
That's why Fang Yucai decided to get involved in the mobile phone and gaming industries.

In this era of mobile Internet, what can understand humans better than mobile phones?

What could be better than games to stimulate emotions, create relationships, simulate conflicts and empathy?

Every mobile phone may be a sensor leading to ASI;

Every NPC, every exotic beast, and every plot created by the player may become the real "life experience" of this ASI before "awakening"!
However, we still need to think of ways to speed up the progress.

After all, the world situation is becoming increasingly turbulent.

Although globalization is now deeply rooted in people's minds and does not seem to have too many problems at present, the rise of Brexit and Le Pen in Britain, as well as Trump's almost overwhelming victory in winning the candidate seat of the congratulatory faction, all reveal that the world is very likely on the eve of great changes.

Once a major change really occurs, international trade is likely to be impacted.

If this leads to obstruction of global circulation, the overseas expansion of Xiaomi mobile phones and Youguo Games will be restricted or even forced to stop.

What ASI needs is more users from different countries to better achieve "data sedimentation", otherwise the accuracy and creativity of ASI will be affected.

Fang Yu never believes that all cultures are "completely equal". He knows that there are indeed some low-quality cultures and even anti-civilization value systems in this world.

But he knew better: no matter how good or bad the civilization is, every culture is essentially exploring the different boundaries of "human behavior and social organization."

It is the "behavioral consequences", "social patterns" and "value choices" left by these explorations that provide ASI with a unique and irreplaceable cognitive dimension.

The more cognitive dimensions ASI has, the more stable it is, and the greater its "behavioral precision", that is, the "accuracy" and "foresight" of ASI.

If the precipitation process is too narrow, not only will the "behavioral accuracy" of ASI decrease, but its "creativity" will also be greatly compromised.

This is what Fang Yu doesn't want to see.

Therefore, the debt crisis of the US must be firmly locked within the country. Even if there is chaos, it can only affect the 300 million people in the country and cannot be exported to other places.

Until ASI was actually born.

After all, there are seven billion people in the world.

What happens after the birth of ASI?

There is no crisis after birth.

After the birth of super artificial intelligence, even if humans face a crisis again, it will not be an economic or military crisis, but only other unknown forms of crisis.

Fang Yu checked the data stream of the Orange ASI module and adjusted several parameters. He was racking his brains to think about how to speed up the "awakening" of the Orange ASI when he heard Yuzi, who was wearing a red Beats headset, giggling.

Apparently, Youzi has no such worries at all. She is holding her Pad and happily watching "Go Princess Go".

Fang Yu glanced at the idiot, raised his eyebrows, snapped his fingers, and then slowly disappeared from the computer room deep underground.

Ten minutes had passed since the end of the episode, and Yuzu finally put away the tablet with a sense of unfulfilled desire. She was extremely excited and said, "Master, I'm telling you, this show is so funny... Eh? Master?"

"Hey, hey, hey, Master! How can I get out if you leave me here?!!!"

Yuzu let out a horrified wail through the Core of Etheron.

"I just checked and found that the single event convergence rate of Orange ASI module is only 2.3‰, which is too low and far from meeting the requirements."

"You stay here and at least raise the convergence rate to above 7‰. If you can't do that, you can stay there by yourself."

Yuzi heard Fang Yu snort through the Core of Esseran.

Seven thousandths?

Yuzu was stunned for a moment.

The single event convergence rate refers to the probability that the Orange ASI module can "experience" something when processing a specific interaction event from the Rice Mix terminal or Taihuang: Mountain and Sea Realm.

This indicator determines the efficiency of the Orange ASI module's "perception", and thus determines the efficiency of the Orange ASI module in precipitating the "core of authenticity". It can be said to be the most important indicator of the Orange ASI module at present.

2.3‰ means that among the one thousand event interactions fed back to the Orange ASI module, 2.3 of them allowed Orange to "understand" and "experience" something.

"Master, 0.7% is too high. This is a three-fold increase. It's too difficult! Wuuwuwu."

Fang Yu said, "You just said it was too difficult, which means it can still be done, right?"

After hearing this, Yuzu almost slapped herself in the face with the Hand of the Mage.

It cannot lie, it can only mislead.

Obviously, this was an unsuccessful misleading attempt.

"Dear great wise and merciful master, please don't leave me in such a deep place, it's too scary!!!"

Five hundred meters underground, a shrill scream was heard.
-
In a dumpling restaurant on Maizidian Street in Xinhao, several young people in their twenties and thirties surrounded a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties or fifties.

"Brother, it's been three days and Jiaxing still hasn't given us any news. Will you disagree?" A young man who looked to be in his twenties asked in a low voice, swallowing a dumpling with a nervous and excited look on his face.

The middle-aged man in a polo shirt and with his hair neatly combed picked up the small wine glass and took a sip with reserve, showing quite the demeanor of an official.

"Let the bullets fly for a while. In our line of work, the most important thing is to be able to keep calm."

The middle-aged man put down his wine cup and slowly picked up a piece of braised beef with chopsticks.

Most people who don’t care about the entertainment industry would never imagine that this middle-aged man who looks like a veteran in the system is the famous paparazzi king of Da Zhou - Zhuo Wei.

In fact, he used to be in the system. He was one of the first reporters in the Zhou Dynasty who specialized in reporting entertainment news. Later, he became a full-time paparazzi.

The young men who had dinner with him today were the paparazzi under him who got the explosive information about Uncle Liu and Wang Manchun.

The total cost of getting this material was less than 30,000 yuan.

Seeing Zhuo Wei's behavior, several young men showed some envy in their eyes. One of the young men with a short flat head looked eager: "Brother, how much money do you think Da Mimi can come up with this time?"

Zhuo Wei's eyelids moved, and he smiled: "Be careful with your words, what do you mean by taking money? We are journalists, and we must have the ethics of journalists."

After hearing Zhuo Wei's words, the guy with the flat head cursed in his heart, and the other paparazzi rolled their eyes.

What the hell is the ethics of journalists.

"Da Mi Mi and Liu Fei Fei have a deep bond as sisters. To protect her bestie, Da Mi Mi angrily rebuked Little Yellow Duck and dispelled the rumors of discord."

Another paparazzi who was eating and browsing Weibo on his phone exclaimed, "Oh my god, Da Mimi and Liu Feifei have reconciled?"

"Didn't they quarrel a while ago? At the Bazaar Charity Night, I saw that they looked like they were about to fight."

"Did you curse the little yellow duck at Vogue's 11th anniversary celebration?"

"Did you get mad at Uncle Liu at that time and lose control of your temper? Haha."

"Isn't that the guy behind Little Yellow Duck? Big Honey is really tough."

"It is said that Da Mimi now has a new backer. It seems to be true?"

"Brother, if Da Mimi gets anxious, will she..."

"Don't think too much. Which of the big and small stars in this circle doesn't have a backer? How many of them are really invincible? The capital behind them has changed several times. Who dares to fight to the end? Each industry has its own rules. Do you understand? Brother, am I right?"

Hearing the conversation between the young people, Zhuo Wei chuckled and said with the calm attitude of an old wizard: "There are indeed some secrets in our industry that cannot be revealed, so we gave five days."

"Five days, whether it's finding someone or doing public relations, both for the stars and us, we have to accept the loss."

The youngsters all looked enlightened and full of admiration, but in their hearts they were very dissatisfied.

Isn't this common sense in the industry? Do you think everyone doesn't know this?
You are so proud of such little thing. You are out of date, you old man.

"By the way, brother, what if Da Mimi and Uncle Liu officially announce their divorce? If they make the news public, there will be no need for PR for the late-night script discussion, right?"

The young man with a shaved head suddenly thought of this and frowned.

Zhuo Wei was confident: "The due diligence of Jiaxing New Third Board has been completed, and the IPO is coming soon. Do you think the IPO is more important at this time, or the public relations fee?"

The flat-headed man slapped his forehead and then asked, "Brother, what if Jiaxing doesn't respond within five days?"

Zhuo Wei narrowed his eyes and said, "If there is really no response, we will release a blurred edited version and label it as 'suspected'."

"As journalists, it is our duty to satisfy the people's desire and curiosity for the truth."

"High! I'm still the tallest!"

"Brother is so tall and hard!"

The three paparazzi flattered him without asking for any money, but Zhuo Wei waved his hands modestly, with a nonchalant expression.

"Boom~"

A Weibo notification popped up above a paparazzi's screen. When he looked down, he couldn't help but scream.

"What the hell! Da Mi Mi and Uncle Liu held a press conference to announce their divorce?"

what! ?

Zhuo Wei's face turned pale with horror, and he quickly picked up his phone to open Weibo, but nothing showed up.

It either shows "Loading failed" or "Please pull down the screen to reload."

“Fuck! Weibo has crashed!”

"This is outrageous, even worse than when Wang Baobao got divorced!"

"Nonsense! This is the traffic queen Da Mimi!"

"I can brush it out here!"

A paparazzi excitedly raised his phone.

"What's going on? Look, look!"

Several people immediately gathered around, and even Zhuo Wei couldn't help but stick his head over.

"Big Mimi Uncle Liu officially announced the divorce and stated that they will raise their daughter together..."

"There is a video of the press conference, click on it and take a look."

"Loading speed is so slow..."

"Out!"

As soon as the video was loaded and before anyone could be seen, the floating barrage of comments covered the entire video.

All of them are like "I don't believe in love anymore", "I knew it earlier", "Zhuo Wei said it last year", "He was still denying it last month, haha", "Celebrities are just actors, they are all low-class people"...

Occasionally, there are a few "big honey is so wonderful" and

"It's really honey"

"Legs play year",

"Okay, that's it, don't move, look at the camera"

"I'm fine, how about you guys?"

……

Gentleman's remarks are endless.

"Turn off the barrage, turn it off quickly."

Under the urging of others, the paparazzi searched for a long time before finding the button to turn off the barrage. He clicked it, and the barrage that filled the screen disappeared instantly.

With serious faces, Da Mimi and Uncle Liu sat on the left and right of the background board, with microphones from various media in front of them.
