Chapter 103 The original accumulation of capital is always difficult



Nothing unexpected happened during the last dinner of the business trip.

Chen Yan continued his previous performance, maneuvering and defeating all opponents at the wine table, bringing this journey to a perfect end.

After returning from Yizhou, he first sent Xu Shaoli and his party back to where they were, and politely declined Xu Shaoli's invitation to "stay one night before leaving". Before five o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Yan returned to his rental house.

Although Xu Shaoli winked at him and hinted that there were several very good KTVs over there, he could let Chu Yinyin come back first and stay there alone to party with Xu Shaoli for another night. Xu Shaoli would send a car to take him back the next day.

But he really had no interest.

Although his moral bottom line is relatively flexible and he does not have any special mental obsession with cleanliness when it comes to matters between men and women, Chen Yan still has some of his own persistence.

At least there should be a certain emotional foundation, right?

If there is no emotional basis and it is purely for the purpose of venting physical desires, then what is the difference between you and a beast?

"I hope to develop a platform similar to ChatGPT, but its intelligence must always be at least one version ahead. How long will it take to achieve this?"

Chen Yan took off his clothes and went into the bathroom. While turning on the shower, he asked.

The answer from 'hope' immediately began to appear on the contact lens.

"As far as I know, ChatGPT is a chatbot program with extremely primitive artificial intelligence technology. Although it is a language processing tool, it can generate purposeful content based on manual training, learning and filling in large amounts of data."

"Whether it's writing papers, scripts, code, translating between multiple languages, drawing, or writing stories, it can demonstrate a certain level of skill. But strictly speaking, its skill isn't exceptional. Furthermore, its evolution is extremely slow, with inherent barriers that are impossible to overcome."

"Its core competitiveness lies in its ability to learn, ultimately generating results that align with human cognition and needs. However, its limitations are significant, and its creativity is relatively lacking. Overall, it is far from the level of truly rudimentary artificial intelligence, and it's not even close."

"If I want to develop a similar platform, it will take me about three hours. It's easy to always stay ahead of the technology, but supporting the normal operation of such a platform is beyond my capabilities. You, the master, need to be fully prepared in advance."

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, then took a quick shower. While wiping his hair and body with a towel, he asked, "What do you mean by 'out of your ability'? I don't understand."

"Once a platform like this is open, it will inevitably face the shared use of a massive number of users. The platform's core program will require a terrifying amount of computing power to handle the inquiries and feedback from a large number of users. I can only provide all software-level support; I can't do anything about hardware needs."

'Currently, my main program is installed in your smart bracelet. The hardware of the smart bracelet can only barely guarantee my minimum operating requirements, which is about 35% of the full speed. Once my computing power requirements begin to increase, your smart bracelet will crash.'

"So no matter what software I develop, you must first find a suitable server to ensure the normal operation of the software. The more users you need to face, the higher the requirements for the server. From what I understand, if you choose to rent a server, the cost will be very expensive."

Looking at the explanation of 'hope', Chen Yan hesitated for a moment.

He suddenly felt that it might be too risky to directly create an AI platform that would likely have a huge amount of traffic.

The cost of renting a server, bandwidth, storage, and database, even if the most expensive R&D costs can be completely saved, the hardware support costs after the start of operations are probably an astronomical figure for him now.

If you do not rent a server but set up your own server room, the money you need to spend will increase hundreds of times.

Although it was imperative to build our own server room considering the company's future development needs, there was no need and no strength to do so in the early days of the company.

In the early stage, the main method is to rent a server.

However, the AI ​​platform's ability to collect payments is rather worrying. Judging from the current operating conditions of many AI dialogue platforms, their monetization methods mainly rely on functional iteration.

Set the lower versions as free to attract users, and then set the latest version as paid, which has significantly enhanced functionality compared to the lower versions.

This method of monetization is somewhat primitive, and the efficiency of collecting payments is indeed a bit low...

However, from the perspective of the product matrix, this AI dialogue platform is of strategic significance. Its implicit value is far beyond the revenue generated by paid use. It is equivalent to a new growth opportunity, so it must be done.

But in addition to the AI ​​platform, we need to carry out some short-term and fast-paced projects to quickly increase the company's cash reserves!

"'Hope', can you make some mini-program games? The kind with simple, even stupid, gameplay that doesn't take up much space, but is incredibly addictive. They rely to a certain extent on in-app purchases, but even without them, they can still make money from ads alone."

"Of course, and I can generate them in bulk. As far as I know the laws in your country, the gameplay itself is not protected by law. Copyright protection only extends to the form of expression, not ideas, procedures, methods of operation or mathematical concepts."

"So as long as the game code and game content do not involve plagiarism, the same gameplay can theoretically create an infinite number of games. Code generation is very easy, and the content presentation can also rely entirely on the information stored in your smart bracelet."

Chen Yan was very happy with the hopeful answer.

Mini-program games, like the online novel released earlier, are fast-food products and do not have any added value.

The only value is that it can provide good cash flow after selling.

For mini-program games that rely on the platform, the servers they use are the platform servers, and the platform will provide a certain amount of free quotas.

Additional charges apply only if the quota is exceeded.

But if the free quota is really exceeded, it naturally means that the game has embarked on the road to making huge profits. Only then will you start paying additional server fees, which will not cause any burden at all!

Thinking of this, Chen Yan immediately took out his cell phone and called Chu Yinyin.

From the perspective of company positioning, mini-program games are a bit low-key, so it is best to register a company specifically to do it!
