After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 143 New Operating System: Let the world see what the future is!
Xiaosha's new round of professional capability enhancement was completed through rapid upgrades according to the requirements of the operating system and application software.

In terms of computing power, after a round of cutting, distillation, division of labor and cooperation, Xiaosha was split into an operating mode that combines various professional models with the full model, which also released a large share.

At this time, Hao Cheng also set aside a part of the time to develop operating systems and development tools.

Hao Cheng promised Lin Wen and the others that he would fulfill every request.

After obtaining Xiaosha's relevant capability interfaces, Lin Wen directly led the team to start a new round of analysis and transformation of the operating system's kernel.

"Do you think that the Linux macro kernel, which integrates multiple modules such as memory management, process scheduling, file system, and network protocol stack into one large kernel, is not suitable for AI to control and schedule them one by one?"

At the analysis meeting, Lin Wen asked:
"Compared to macro kernels, each core of a micro kernel contains only basic functions, and the rest of the functions exist as independent processes. It has obvious advantages in terms of security, stability, and modularity. The only disadvantage is that services and processes need to interact frequently, and the cost of communication will be relatively high.

"But now we have AI, which can precisely control every step of communication and interaction. Does this disadvantage no longer exist?"

"You mean, we don't use Linux? We need to redesign a microkernel?" The team members were shocked. They had no experience in making an operating system from scratch. "Besides, the ecosystem..."

"What's the point of this? Isn't our alliance focused on ecology?"

Lin Wen said: "Mr. Hao also said that we don't need to consider compatibility with Linux software. For ordinary users, there are not many. The applications brought by Xiaosha system-level plug-in alone are more than this.

"Besides, what is our alliance for? Isn't it just about software and ecology? Moreover, yesterday Mr. Hao also made an appointment with domestic Internet giants and software companies. They will do their best to cooperate, so there is no need to worry about this issue at all.

"As for not having made an operating system from scratch, everyone has done it for the first time! Moreover, we want to make a big one, replacing Windows for PCs, Android for mobile phones, and all kinds of devices."

Lin Wen got excited when he thought about this. Ever since he started working on Ghost XP, he had been fantasizing about making his own operating system one day, and now it was finally going to come true.

Moreover, today's hardware and systems are very different from those in the past. There is essentially no difference between various terminals such as PCs, tablets, TVs, mobile phones and even cars.

It is impossible for me to develop an operating system that only supports personal computers. That would become a joke.

"Just rely on us?" The team members felt more and more that it was outrageous.

"Of course our strength is not enough." With only a dozen people, it would be ridiculous to do such a big thing. "But, don't we have Xiaosha now?"

Lin Wen continued, “I specifically asked Mr. Hao to give us a development version of Xiaosha dedicated to training the operating system.

"Mr. Hao told me that Xiaosha has learned all the professional knowledge related to operating systems and has been trained through multiple open source operating system kernels such as Linux, Singularity, BSD, Android, OpenHarmony, etc. At this time, it is an expert in operating systems.

“You all know the abilities of Xiaosha after the special training. His overall ability is definitely on par with the top experts. We just need to come up with ideas and let Xiaosha do it.

"But you have to be careful. If this operating system was developed entirely by Xiaosha, then we can just pack up and leave."

More than a dozen people nodded. Since Lin Wen came back from the meeting, whenever he got the chance, he would repeatedly use those [state-owned enterprise software companies that came with high enthusiasm but left with nothing in the end] to warn them:

If I let Xiaosha do everything and I don't do any work, then my fate will be the same as those state-owned enterprises.

“It doesn’t matter if you do more or less, but you must not use Xiaosha with the mentality that once Xiaosha has done it, you don’t have to do it anymore. This is a taboo!
“We should always think about how to make use of Xiaosha’s abilities or shortcomings to make the system more perfect.”

Lin Wen was the one who understood Hao Cheng's ideas most thoroughly. In fact, he thought so too.

But thinking about it is much more difficult than doing it - this is because Xiaosha's ability is far beyond their imagination.

But in terms of work, Lin Wen had never experienced anything so enjoyable.

Under Hao Cheng's arrangement, thousands or even tens of thousands of Xiaoshas work at the same time. As long as the computing power is continuous, Xiaosha's code writing speed will not be slow.

People are responsible for coming up with ideas, and Xiaosha is responsible for implementing them. Once given an order, Xiaosha will quickly carry it out.

All they need to do is help it deal with things it can't handle when Xiaosha gives a "di di" warning.

With the strong support of Hao Cheng's unlimited computing power and unlimited accounts, the development speed has also reached a limit.

This was something Lin Wen had never experienced before. Even if he had opened Xiaosha's commercial account, it was not so easy to use.

"We can't go on like this!" In just two days, with tens of thousands of small sands and unlimited computing power, an operating system took shape.

But this group of people began to get anxious. Xiaosha was very strong, but in comparison, he seemed incompetent: "Except for proposing some connections and ideas, we have done almost no work. If this continues..."

"Do you still remember?"

Lin Wen was also anxious, saying that he wanted to use his own advantages as a "human" to build on Xiaosha's abilities or shortcomings, but Xiaosha didn't give them many opportunities to do so. Lin Wen continued:

"In the concept of AI light entrepreneurship, what does Baiju Technology say about how to extend Xiaosha's capabilities?

"Emotions, subjectivity, and human interaction are Xiaosha's weaknesses, so can we focus on human-computer interaction?"

Over the years, Lin Wen has had many ideas about operating systems, including many ideas related to interaction.

The so-called interaction is that people input what they want to express into the computer. At this time, input devices are needed, and now there are mainly mouse, keyboard, touch screen, sound, etc.

Lin Wen once thought, could my every frown and smile be a source of input?
Without going into too much detail, when I'm watching a TV series, I can adjust the playback magnification based on my expressions and micro-movements, perform appropriate playback operations, etc. Is it possible to realize an application like this?

There are actually some solutions for this kind of thing now, such as Apple's eye tracking control.

But so far, this is not a good solution except for some special groups of people and some special times.

Let's put aside the question of whether it is accurate or not. Just try to move your eyeballs deliberately for an hour and you will know. I guarantee you won't want to open your eyes for three days. After all, the human eye is an external organ that sees things and transmits images to the brain. It is indeed a bit difficult for it to issue instructions.

There are also gesture operations, where grabbing and waving things around brings more fun. After Baiju Technology got involved, Huawei's latest equipment's "one-throw" file transfer operation solved more pain points.

But Lin Wen’s current idea is how to normalize and universalize this interactive method and integrate it into the new operating system as a regular input method.

As a super AI, Xiaosha is integrated into every layer of the operating system, improving performance, microkernel, macrokernel, and AI kernel, and solving problems of security, efficiency, and scheduling accuracy.

For most users, this improvement is least noticeable, especially nowadays when hardware performance is almost excessive.

What is the strongest perception of users? It is interaction!

As for what kernel, scheduling, and thread are, how many people can understand them except professionals and technology and digital enthusiasts?

For ordinary users, the quality of the UI, whether it looks laggy to the naked eye, and whether it is convenient to operate are the gold standards for judging whether an operating system is good or not.

If, in addition to keyboard, mouse, and touch screen, we can come up with an interaction method that is suitable for most scenarios and can greatly improve the user experience, it will definitely become another core competitive advantage of the new operating system in addition to performance improvements.

"Use your brains and see if you have any good ideas. You can bring them up." Lin Wen told the team, and he went directly to find Hao Chengcheng.

……

After Hao Cheng had some communication with Lin Wen, he immediately felt that this person had made the right choice.

In fact, Hao Cheng himself has been thinking about this issue these days. To create a new operating system, apart from performance, what is the most important point that can attract users the fastest?
That's interaction, of course.

It's like a blind date. When you meet someone, the first thing you see is the face. As for personality, quality, and accomplishment, those can only be known through subsequent understanding.

The same is true for operating systems. The first thing users come into contact with when using it is the UI, which is the operation.

As for what Lin Wen said, eye tracking is too tiring and useless, the gesture control function is simple and interesting but not practical, micro-expression recognition is too difficult and has a low accuracy rate, and so on.

Hao Cheng’s solution is to directly integrate all these methods and create a fusion perception!
Then all these data and methods are integrated to comprehensively judge the user's interaction intention.

Integrated interaction is just the beginning, because everyone has their own characteristics, and everyone's behaviors and habits are different.

The difficulty of integrated interaction is that it must be personalized to adapt to each individual's habits.

Based on his every smile, turn, movement, gestures, and the current APP or device he is using, we can judge the user's behavior and intentions.

This is where Xiaosha comes into play.

After only a short period of use, Xiaosha can generate a set of fusion perception interaction solutions suitable for the user based on his posture, expression, and behavioral habits.

"It's not even limited to the recognition you mentioned," Hao Cheng said, "Don't mobile phones have gyroscopes? If the gyroscope is not accurate enough, we can also consider making a new hardware. We can even use this hardware to obtain data when the phone is shaken or picked up.

"Through this data, we can even determine the difference between picking up a phone once and picking it up another time. This can then form a unique personal behavior code. For example, when you pick up your phone, it's unlocked.

“No matter how you hold it, it can be solved, but if someone else holds it, no matter how they hold it, it can’t be solved.”

If a person does it, of course they cannot recognize the difference between the action and the data, but AI can find the unique characteristics of a certain person in the subtle details and generate a behavioral code.

“I call this [intention recognition control system based on hardware fusion perception and AI deep learning]”

Hao Cheng turned his tablet around so that Lin Wen could see the words on it, and then said, "I have already trained the relevant hardware solutions and fusion algorithms. You can just call the API when you go back."

"This!" Lin Wen came here this time just to exchange ideas with Hao Cheng and see if there could be any plan when updating the subsequent versions.

But no one would have expected that Hao Cheng had already trained his abilities!
This solution sounds perfect and mature, and can even be used for commercial purposes right away.

"The capabilities are here," Hao Cheng said at last, "but what effect will it have on the operating system and the users? That depends on how you design it."

For a moment, Lin Wen was so surprised that he almost jumped up. How could other companies use such an operating system?

"Understood!" After hearing what Hao Cheng said, Lin Wen stood up and promised: "If I can't beat Microsoft again, I'll just bang my head against the wall and die!"

Lin Wen really thought so in his mind. Now he had only one idea in his mind: go back quickly, integrate this set of interactive algorithms into the operating system, release it quickly, and let the world see what the future is!
"Okay, I have transferred the relevant information to you through Xiaosha, go back to work." Hao Cheng waved his hand, he was also very proud.

"it is good!"

Coming out of Hao Cheng's office, Lin Wen took two steps at a time, or even trotted all the way to his team's office area, and before he arrived, he said, "Conference room, meeting!"

The overall functions of the operating system have been almost completed, and unit testing is being carried out by Xiaosha.

Finally, the only task left for Lin Wen’s team was real machine testing. At this time, the team members were busy installing and debugging systems for various test equipment.

"Brother Lin, what's the urgent matter?" Lin Wen went to General Manager Hao's office after a meeting, and came back to have another urgent meeting. The team members were a little confused.

"Take a look at this first!" As soon as Xiaosha finished speaking, he automatically opened the conference screen and displayed the relevant content. On the screen, there was a line of big words:

【Intention recognition control system based on hardware fusion perception and AI deep learning 1.0-API 1.0.0.16】
