The next morning.
Shu Yuhui, who was on a business trip in the capital, called and said, "Mr. Li, Mr. Lei from Dami Technology launched the "Intelligent AI Assistant" at a press conference. Would you like to take a look at the details of the press conference?"
"I see. No need to look. It's just a low-level LV8 intelligence. Just tell me."
Levi wasn't very interested in wasting two or three hours watching a launch conference for a low-end technology product.
But he couldn't help but grumble, "Da Mi is being a bit too hasty. We're providing an intelligent program, and it hasn't even evolved to Level 3 intelligence, yet they're rushing to release the product. Furthermore, they're cutting corners on the hardware architecture. It's truly shabby."
He frowned and complained a little. The performance of his partner, Dami Technology, really left him speechless.
At the beginning, he suggested that Da Mi spend billions to buy an exascale supercomputer (E-class supercomputer) to use as a training device for "Smart AI Assistant". As a result, Da Mi chose to spend some money to go to the "Tian Jing City Supercomputing Center" and rent 80% of the computing power of "Galaxy III", spending less than 300 million.
Then he took out another sum of money and rented multiple cloud servers from Alibaba to build an intelligent big data system, spending about 200 million yuan.
The required hardware platform was built at only one twentieth of the cost and in about two weeks.
Levi asked his butler Bowen to send over a data package of 120GB of intelligent program data, and then asked Rice Company to arrange for this program to run on a supercomputer, enter the "self-learning" state, and evolve towards the LV8 intelligent AI at a rate of 0.1 per day.
But the rice company couldn't wait any longer. After only one month, the intelligent AI program barely evolved to level 3 after some testing.
Lei Xiaojun and other senior executives of Xiaomi could no longer hold back and released the "Intelligent AI Assistant" impatiently.
Moreover, at the press conference, Lei Xiaojun was extremely excited, yelling and shouting, "This is advanced", "That is amazing", "The only one in the world, no other product can match it"... He was so excited that he seemed like he had been injected with chicken blood.
impetuous.
stingy.
Never seen the world.
This was Levi's private assessment, and he was particularly dissatisfied with the rice company's stinginess. An exascale supercomputer and several high-performance cloud servers, how much would all this hardware cost? It was astonishing that they couldn't even afford such a small amount.
Indeed, this seems to be very economical and smart, but it is just a clever trick. High-value software applications like "Smart AI Assistant" can only be placed locally, which is more convenient to manage and control. Renting others will cause a lot of trouble in the future and you won't save money.
Moreover, the top management of Rice is too high-profile and impetuous, and they hype a lot, but their technical strength is very weak. Now that they have access to some powerful things, they can't wait to shout.
To be honest, Levi doesn't really want such a partner, as he feels it's a bit of a loss of face.
"Mr. Li, the financial report of DaMi Technology was released a few days ago. Mobile phone sales plummeted by 17% in the first quarter, and profits plummeted by 35%. This caused stock market turmoil, and DaMi's stock price fell to junk status again. Many shareholders demanded delisting. If we don't release some positive news now, DaMi Technology may end up like many other niche mobile phone manufacturers."
"I hope you, Mr. Li, can understand the apology Mr. Lei expressed to me at the celebration banquet last night."
Shu Yuhui explained on the phone.
"Okay, stop talking. What do these things have to do with me? If Da Mi does this again in the future, I will consider finding a better and more suitable partner." Levi didn't want to be let down by a stupid teammate.
"Boss Li, how can it be okay? Just now, not long after the Hong Kong stock market opened, the share price of Rice Technology soared by 10%, reaching the daily limit!
Mr. Li, I suggest you buy some shares of Rice. Rice's stock price is currently at rock bottom. After the release of the killer product, "Smart AI Assistant," I predict it will see at least twenty daily limit increases! Mr. Li, if you invest now, you could potentially get a three- to five-fold return in a short period of time!"
"Three to five times, are you serious?" Levi became interested.
"Mr. Li, don't you have confidence in 'Smart AI Assistant'? This is a groundbreaking artificial intelligence application, and the market impact it will bring is unimaginable."
"Okay, ask the company's finance department to take out one billion, no, two billion, to buy some rice stocks."
Levi was not very interested in financial games like the stock market, but the opportunity to bend down and pick up money was right in front of him, so he certainly would not be stupid enough to ignore it. With a return rate of three to five times, it was difficult for him to ignore it.
…
The next few days.
The technology circle exploded!
It exploded like a nuclear weapon, sending a massive shock wave that spread throughout the technology world.
All scientists, digital bloggers, video creators, amateur technology enthusiasts, and countless individuals who pay attention to the development of science and technology were all over the screen with the "Genius Xiaoai" released by the Rice Company.
"Genius Xiaoai" dominated the trending searches on Baidu and Weibo. Millions of people downloaded the beta version of "Smart AI Assistant" and conducted a series of tests, coming to shocking conclusions:
"It's different. It's completely different from other phone manufacturers' voice assistants. When I ask Tianai questions, she can usually answer common questions. If it's a more advanced question, she will honestly say she doesn't know the answer yet."
"We conducted the most rigorous Turing test. Among eight voice assistants, only Tianai scored a high of 95 points. The others all scored below 50. Tianai's performance has made it feel more than just a mobile app."
