Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World

Chapter 8 Distributed Neural Network Data

Thompson redid the plan overnight.
After reading it, Jiang Fan convened the first technical seminar of Xiling Company. He distributed a document to everyone present. The content was about the operating code of the Civilization game using distributed neural network data architecture.

At the meeting, he said,
"The essence of the game is data,"

"Previous methods of data transmission relied on a spiderweb of internet protocols,"

"The advantage of this method is that it can effectively filter out junk data, but in doing so, it loses data transmission efficiency and computing speed,"

"Since we want to stay ahead of the times, we can no longer operate in the traditional way,"

"This document is about a vision for a completely new data operation structure,"

"By simulating the neural structure of the human brain, we hope to achieve a leap beyond traditional computational logic standards."

Since Robert Kahn, the father of the Internet, developed the Internet standard protocol, almost all network structures run on this protocol.

The idea proposed by Jiang Fan is completely different.
According to its operating structure, the connection between all data completely ignores any Internet protocol, just like the human neural network, neurons can connect with each other at will.

Because it is completely random, a lot of redundancy will be generated when the data is running. Everyone here is an expert in network technology. After reading this document, they couldn't help but say,

"Lord Wallfacer, if the Civilization game runs according to your data structure, it will generate a massive amount of collision results every moment. No server can accommodate this data! The game will crash!"

The person who asked the question is Will. His alma mater is Robert's alma mater, so he and Robert have the same knowledge of data structure.
He could accept changing the Internet protocol, but he could not accept the idea of ​​abandoning the protocol completely, because once the protocol was abandoned, all his years of learning and research results would be gone.

Moreover, data that does not run according to the protocol will definitely be chaotic and will eventually overwhelm the server!

When Jiang Fan decided to release this document, he knew someone would ask this question.
He explained,

"If the data is only carried by the server, such problems will naturally arise. However, I plan to use cloud network technology to store the Civilization game data. The server is just a temporary computing place, which can avoid the problem of data bloat."

Cloud network technology?
The people present looked at each other, and saw doubt in each other's eyes.
As the chief engineer, Thompson had to stand up and raise questions on behalf of everyone at this time.

"Ah, Master Wallfacer, may I ask what cloud network technology is?"

In the early crisis era, the penetration rate of mobile phones and computers on Blue Star was not high, and the network transmission speed was not fast, so data was mostly stored in physical ways, such as hard drives, CDs or databases.
So no one knows that when Internet technology enters the 5G and 6G era, it will be possible to use gigahertz networks to achieve ultra-high-speed writing and calling of various data in every connected device.
By then, every mobile phone and every computer will be equivalent to a data storage unit.
When the number of mobile devices explodes, the number of devices that can store data will be as numerous as clouds scattered across the sky, hence the name cloud network technology.

Jiang Fan briefly talked about the concept of cloud network technology, which made everyone fall into deep thought.
Obviously, this topic is beyond their understanding.

Thompson could only bite the bullet and continue,

"Master Wallfacer, even if the cloud network technology you mentioned can store data in a large number of mobile devices,"

"But according to your operating structure, the speed at which Civilization game data is generated will increase exponentially. There is no upper limit at all, and no matter how many storage units you have, it won't be enough."

"Furthermore, the more massive the data volume, the lower the efficiency of accessing it. Even gigahertz transmission speeds are powerless against exahertz data."

If it is just pure data processing, then the problem Thompson described does exist.
The name of Jiang Fan's proposed operating structure suggests it's called a distributed neural network! It's a structure that mimics the workings of the human brain. The human brain generates an infinite amount of data every second. For example, the human eye transmits ultra-high-definition image data to the brain at a rate of thirty frames per second, forming the visual system.

If these ultra-high-definition images were converted into data, the size of each frame would exceed a gigabyte!
This means that the human brain's visual system has to process 30 gigabits of data per second.
If all this data were stored in memory units, how much storage space would the human brain require?

This is simply impossible!

The reason why humans can normally receive, remember and call various sensory information is that the brain has an extremely sophisticated data screening method.
Scholars in the super-god world call this method of processing data the Chaos Intelligent Brain Screening System. It is precisely relying on this system that Shenhe Academy has developed super artificial intelligence.

What Jiang Fan needs to do is to replicate this technology in the Three-Body World.

But he couldn't explain his future plans to Thompson and others. You know, Jiang Fan is a wall-facer and is under the surveillance of protons at all times.
In order to prevent this technology from being learned by the Trisolarans, he has to cover up a lot!
"Chief Thompson!"

Jiang Fan's tone suddenly became serious.
"Have you forgotten my identity?"

"I am the Wallfacer. My plan is solely responsible for humanity's victory over the Trisolaran civilization in three hundred years!"

"If you joined my team to question my decisions,"

"Then I will follow the most fundamental provision of the Wallfacer Act: Wallfacers do not need to explain their actions to anyone."

"I'm here to fire you!"

In fact, Jiang Fan could say gently: This is part of the plan.

But he didn't say that, because he wanted to create a false impression, to show his inexplicable anger.
Only in this way,

The Trisolarans behind Proton, as well as those wall breakers who have yet to show up, will believe that there is a deeper meaning behind his actions! Only then will they follow the wall-breaking path planned by Jiang Fan for them!
After Jiang Fan finished speaking, he sat quietly in the chairman's seat and looked at the people in front of him.

Thompson opened his mouth and finally lowered his head.

The same goes for others.
this day,
They truly understood the meaning of the Wallfacer.
Can’t say more, can’t reveal, can’t explain!
No need to say more, no need to reveal, no need to explain!

Everyone just needs to put all their energy into the direction specified by the Wallfacer.

Any action that requires the Wallfacer to explain the problem is to reveal the Wallfacer's intentions to the Three-Body Civilization.

Jiang Fan nodded to the reactions of Thompson and others.
During the period when the Wallfacer Act was just passed and implemented,
Although all the high-level officials responded to the requests of the wall-facing people, in reality, people's attitude towards the wall-facing people has not changed.
A qualified person who assists the wallfacer must be someone who unconditionally executes the wallfacer's instructions.
Even if the instruction is obviously useless, or even seems absurd and wrong,

That must also be implemented!

End of the meeting,

With Jiang Fan's guiding documents, I believe Thompson and others will arrange the work well.
