Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 184 Quantum Laboratory!
For example, facing a maze.

Traditional electronic computers can only try one path at a time and use brute force algorithms to finally find the correct path.

Quantum computers can try all paths at the same time, so finding the correct path is naturally much faster.

Most importantly, quantum computers can demonstrate superior performance in intelligent AI because they can accelerate matrix operations, optimize the computing process through extremely high parallel capabilities, and assist intelligent AI in finding the correct answer among numerous possibilities.

Intelligent AI occupies an extremely high weight in Li Qingsong's current industrial power.

Shengong, Shennong, Wukong, Luban, Nuwa, Jade Emperor...

Once quantum computers are successfully developed and put into practical use, the improvement of other intelligent AIs can be temporarily put aside. At least the capabilities of Shengong AI can be greatly improved. In this way, we can achieve a significant increase in overall industrial strength while keeping the maximum number of consciousness connections unchanged. It will be possible to complete the construction of a fleet 25 times the current size within 20 years!
Now that he is being constantly hunted by the intelligent machine scourge, conquering quantum computer technology and developing a high-performance quantum computer with his own technical route is almost Li Qingsong's only chance of survival!
A long time ago, Li Qingsong had been conducting research on quantum computers with reference to the technology of the Bluetook civilization.

Although there have been many advances, there is still a certain distance from true practical application.

However, the quantum computers of the Bluetuk civilization are not compatible with Li Qingsong's existing technological system due to differences in their technological routes. They can only serve as auxiliary and are unable to truly take on the heavy responsibility.

So, the only question now is, with only five years left, can I achieve a technological breakthrough in quantum computers?
Is it possible to upgrade quantum computers from their current state of being “toys in the laboratory” to ones that can truly be used on a large scale?
But... I don't seem to have any other choice at the moment.

Then don’t think about whether you can do it or not, just try your best!

Li Qingsong really made up his mind.

At this moment, Li Qingsong's industrial strength was running at full capacity. Many factories immediately switched production and began to produce related equipment and materials. A large number of spacecraft shuttled back and forth between the planet's surface and space. It only took a few months to build an unprecedented huge space laboratory.

This is a huge laboratory with a diameter of 3 kilometers and a length of 6 kilometers, and the overall shape is still a drum.

Quantum Lab!
The outside of the quantum laboratory is composed of three layers of rollers, each of which is about 200 meters thick. The speed of its rotation around the main axis can be precisely adjusted, so that different gravity can be created according to different needs.

Inside the three-layer drum is a cylindrical main shaft that remains stationary, and the interior maintains a low gravity or zero gravity state.

This huge laboratory is divided into more than 1000 areas, covering various branches of quantum supercomputing technology, used to study decoherence problems, environmental interference, high-performance heat dissipation, refrigeration, new superconducting materials, error correction technology, laser precision manipulation, algorithms, systems, programs, etc. Each technical branch occupies a huge space.

The total number of clones working in this laboratory reached 500 million.

But this is not all that Li Qingsong has devoted to the research of quantum supercomputing technology.

On other planets and space bases, Li Qingsong also built more than 1000 auxiliary laboratories, in which more than 200 million clones were distributed.

Over seven million clones worked on the front lines, but Li Qingsong also mobilized the brainpower of another 700 million clones. These clones were tasked with doing nothing, even their meals being taken care of by the other clones, while they lay in bed all day pondering various scientific and technological challenges. The results of these 700 million clones' thinking were transmitted in real time to the front-line clones, allowing them to adjust the direction of their next experiments based on their findings.

The data produced by the next experiment will be synchronized to the brains of these brain clones in real time to support their next thinking.

This promotes each other and circulates.

At the current stage, mobilizing a total of approximately 1.1 million clones to join the research and development of quantum supercomputing is already the limit of what Li Qingsong can do.

After all, other aspects also require a lot of manpower.

The industrial system needs to be maintained, and previously accumulated technical conjectures and related research on improving spacecraft performance also need to be done by clones.

But even if there are only 1.1 million clones joining the research, the scientific research capabilities they possess have far exceeded the original human civilization and the Blueprint civilization.

A rough estimate shows that the scientific research capabilities of these 1.1 million clones are at least ten times greater than the scientific research capabilities of the entire Blueprint civilization combined!
The scientific research strength is equivalent to that of ten Blueprint civilizations combined, and now all of it is invested in the quantum supercomputing project.

This is the confidence that Li Qingsong has in mastering this technology within five years.

In addition to devoting all his energy to two extremely important scientific and technological research projects, namely quantum supercomputing and spacecraft performance optimization and improvement, Li Qingsong also spared some energy to do a third thing.

He built dozens of heavy transport ships, each with a fully loaded mass of around 1000 million tons.

The reason why it is not built bigger, or even directly used as an aerospace mothership, is mainly due to concealment considerations.

Each of these transport ships contains 10,000 hibernating clones and carries a small but extremely critical number of industrial equipment, such as simple but highly reliable chemical power generation equipment, mining equipment, smelting equipment, casting equipment, chemical equipment, primary agricultural planting and breeding equipment, etc.

There is a supercomputer inside each transport ship, which is not only responsible for the overall control of the spacecraft, but also carries all the technological data of Li Qingsong over the years, as well as the program codes of all intelligent AIs such as Jade Emperor, Shengong, and Wukong.

Afterwards, these heavy transport ships, under the autonomous control of the Jade Emperor AI, followed Li Qingsong's instructions and flew towards the direction away from Altair.

Each transport ship's destination star system is different. These star systems are also close and far away, with the closest being only a dozen light years away and the farthest being hundreds of light years away.

Even if we are unlucky and encounter accidental damage during the voyage, with so many spaceships, there must be a few that can reach their destination safely, right?
This is the backup plan Li Qingsong prepared for himself.

If things go wrong and that intelligent disaster arrives at the Altair system ahead of time, causing the destruction of his main fleet, he can at least transfer to another star system through that unknown means of communication and develop again.
