"Support 50 million engineering robots at the same time?!"

Hearing Lu Weibing's words, people at the scene were also shocked, because this number seemed a bit too exaggerated.

But after thinking about it carefully, they found that with 36,000 qubits, it can easily support more than 500,000 engineering robots working at the same time. This is when many other artificial intelligence functions are used at the same time.

If Dawn of Artificial Intelligence concentrates on controlling engineering robots and does nothing else, doubling the number to 1 million engineering robots does not seem to be a problem.

At this time, the number of qubits has reached 3.66 million, a 100-fold increase. It seems possible to control 50 million robots at the same time.

But at this moment, Chen Dong, the person in charge of Sugon Manufacturing and Sugon Electronics, shook his head slightly and said in denial:

"It's not just 50 million units, because our quantum computer is not a traditional supercomputer, it is a quantum computer.

According to the theory of quantum computers, the more qubits there are, the stronger the computing power, and its computing power increases exponentially.

So according to normal circumstances, the computing power of our quantum computer has not increased by 100 times, but by more than 100 times, but I can’t calculate the specific amount.

After hearing Chen Dong's words, the people at the scene nodded suddenly, and they remembered that this was indeed the case.

That’s why quantum computers dare to claim that the computing power of thousands of qubits can be equivalent to the sum of the computing power of all traditional computers in the world combined.

At this time, their qubits have increased a hundred times, and the final computing power must not be calculated as a 100-fold increase. Otherwise, the computing power gap will definitely be very different. It can be said that one is in the sky and the other is in the earth.

Thinking of this, the people at the scene were all very excited and even excited.

But at this time, Lin Chen suddenly shook his head and said:

"This increase in computing power is not as great as you think, because how much water a bucket can hold depends not on its strongest longboard, but on its shortest shortboard."

Lin Chen told a rather cruel fact.

Because the facts are indeed as Lin Chen said. On the surface, the computing power of quantum computers will indeed increase exponentially with the growth of qubits, but quantum computers are also composed of other things.

As for the Dawn quantum computer, there are even memristor chips and special memory that assist in the work.

After all, a quantum computer also needs the assistance of memristor chips and special memory to temporarily store data. It is not that it does not need other things. It only uses quantum computing for the calculation part.

Finally, there is the issue of bandwidth limitations of the interface between quantum computers and the outside world, so the computing power of this quantum computer will naturally not be as terrifying as they imagined.

Of course, compared to the previous generation, the second-generation quantum computer is still quite powerful, and its computing power has increased hundreds of times compared to the previous one.

So in theory, it is indeed possible to easily support the operation of 50 million robots, but unfortunately this is just a theory, because the Internet network does not support it, and the network interface bandwidth of the memristor supercomputer does not support it.

A robot has so many screens, and the complexity of the screen increases so much with each additional robot. How is it possible to support 50 million robots?

Therefore, if you want to increase the number of robots, you still have to increase the intelligence of the local artificial intelligence program and increase the computing power of the local computer.

“So how many robots can we support?”

Huang Hua asked what he said.

“It shouldn’t be a problem to support 10 million robots, but this is almost the limit.

Because after reaching this level, one of our shortcomings, the network interface bandwidth, is already very congested and cannot continue to increase. "

Lin Chen gave his answer, and the people at the scene instantly became decadent.

Because this data is so different from the previous 50 million robots or even the hundreds of millions of robots they imagined, there is simply a gap between heaven and earth.

"Can't we continue to increase it?"

Huang Hua asked reluctantly.

"Of course."

The speaker at this time was Ni Guangnan. Ni Guangnan smiled and said in the eyes of people's expectations:

“It’s impossible to fundamentally solve the problem of network bandwidth limitations, but we can alleviate this problem in disguise, and we have been doing this.

The first point of this method is to increase the intelligence of the local artificial intelligence program, making it smarter and able to do more things.

The second point is to increase the computing power of the local robot. After all, if you want to support an artificial intelligence program that is smarter and can do more things, you need stronger computing power to support it.

Among them, we have made great progress in increasing the intelligence of the artificial intelligence program on the local side so that it can do more things.

Because we have very powerful second-generation quantum computers, we can use the Unreal 4 game engine to build a virtual scene.

Then let the local artificial intelligence program continue to train and respond, and we human developers and the dawn of artificial intelligence continue to make corrections.

It can be said that after using this method, the intelligence of our local artificial intelligence programs is increasing day by day. In the case of engineering robots, without updating the hardware.

With the updated local artificial intelligence program, our engineering robots can handle most engineering tasks and support more complex scenarios. The demand for assistance from cloud artificial intelligence Dawn has been directly reduced by more than 44%!

And this data can actually be increased further, because stronger computing power can support smarter artificial intelligence programs and can do more things.

If we have enough computing power and develop stronger artificial intelligence programs, it will be possible to achieve 99% of scenarios without the support of artificial intelligence Dawn, which will increase the number of robots in disguise. "

"So is there any big breakthrough in the local computing power problem? What step has been achieved?"

Lu Weibing, the person in charge of Shuguang Construction, asked what he said.

"Speaking of which, I can't help but tell everyone the good news."

Ni Guangnan's eyes were a little excited when he talked about this, and then he smiled and said while people were watching:

"Our first-generation memristor chip has been designed and is about to be trial-produced. This memristor chip is not the integrated storage and calculation chip used by the engineering robot host.

Because although the integrated storage and computing chip can also be called an integrated storage and computing chip, its essence is only based on the improvement of the von Neumann structure, and it is actually a near-memory computing chip.

Therefore, the performance efficiency of near-memory computing chips is indeed greatly improved compared to traditional computers, but the gap is not as big as imagined, and the upper limit is only 10 times the gap.

The memristor chip that has been designed now is a true integrated storage and calculation chip. In theory, under the same power consumption, its efficiency can easily reach a hundred times that of traditional computer chips. It is also the most suitable chip to be applied to robots! "

Speaking of which, this near-memory computing chip was actually designed as early as March 2008. The original design goal was to build a near-memory computing supercomputer.

But because Lin Chen had developed a 36,000-qubit quantum computer and a memristor supercomputer with even more terrifying performance and computing power in advance, the near-memory computing supercomputer naturally came to an end.
