Chapter 280: We Just Wanted to Do Something Fun, But We Changed the World (Part 1)
Qianxun pushed all the responsibility onto the non-existent "cyber attack". At the same time, the technical department racked their brains to come up with a far-fetched explanation announcement, saying that a hacker attack had embedded false information into the "Wenjun Yiyan" model.
Qianxun's rhetoric makes sense in the traditional IT field and even the big data field, but in the field of AI big models, it completely violates the basic principles of big models.
In other words, there are really not many people who understand the big model thing now. Although they can't fool experts, there are not many experts at all.
In fact, many senior executives in large companies only have a vague understanding of this field, and Qianxun's explanation is actually recognized by many people.
Just when everyone in the war room breathed a sigh of relief, an entry in the corner of the public opinion monitoring panel suddenly climbed up the hot search list rapidly!
"Accidental Revolution."
"What is this?" Madeline pointed to the entry.
"Oh, this is the trending search for "The Story of Minglan." Short-haired Vivian explained without paying much attention.
Compared with the influence of Weibo, "The Story of Minglan" is now just a niche website and is not worth mentioning at all.
What happened to the criticism of Chihiro for doing evil some time ago? There is still no movement now.
"Pay attention." Madeline frowned. She was not impressed by Zhifou and felt that Zhifou was just a bunch of losers who thought they were elites and were just being selfish.
Previously, Qianxun’s strategic investment department rejected the investment in Zhifou on the grounds that Zhifou’s business model was completely wrong.
Madeline still agrees with the decision of the strategic investment department.
Because this website actually targets the so-called "intellectual elite" class.
What is the easiest way to make money in this world?
The easiest way to make money is from irrational and cognitively deficient groups.
I won’t give examples of specific groups, as it would offend people.
Only those with insufficient knowledge are most likely to be fooled and most likely to consume.
This group of so-called intellectual elites have no money at all. Even the rich ones claim to be sober and refuse to spend money. How does your website make money?
Previously, they were still doing the so-called invitation registration, which was totally nonsense.
The same dilemma also exists for the small broken station and the now defunct Station A.
Those who form small circles and act on their own will eventually die.
The scholar's rebellion failed after three years.
However, although this group of people has no chance of rebellion, they are still very professional at causing trouble for others.
The previous "Chat Bar" incident and the misleading medical treatment incident a few days ago all started to ferment from "The Story of Minglan".
Since "Xinzhi" under Qianxun is a competitor of Zhifou, Zhifou often chooses to go head-to-head with Qianxun's public relations, that is, not deleting questions and answers, and focusing on a tough and unyielding approach, reflecting a very strong united front value.
However, due to the size and audience issues, there is often a hysteresis effect of half an hour to an hour between the hot topics on Zhifou and Weibo. It takes about half an hour to an hour for the hot topics on Weibo to ferment on Zhifou, and vice versa.
Vivian opened the hot search keyword as Madeline requested, and was surprised to find that six or seven questions had appeared under this entry, which had just appeared for less than half an hour, with a total of nearly five hundred answers and more than one hundred thousand likes.
"How do you evaluate the Orange model Easter egg triggering mechanism announced by 'Yubaba', and the fact that the rebooted 'Wen Jun Yi Yan' can still reproduce the Orange model Easter egg?"
"What do you think about the large number of professionals claiming they didn't qualify for the 'Wenjun Yiyan' public beta test?"
"Does the 'Accidental Revolution' Easter egg in the orange model indicate that the end of technology is alchemy?"
…
Seeing the dense questions and answers, the expressions of Qianxun's core management in the "Pozhenzi" war room all changed drastically.
It’s broken, something went wrong again!
Fu Yuansheng, who had been under everyone's watch, was trembling all over. He wanted to see what was happening but didn't dare to.
What exactly is this Accidental Revolution?
Vivian clicked on the number one question with a pale face. She didn't scroll down to the answer, but went straight to the question description.
The description contains a Weibo link, which points to the Weibo account of the ID "Yumababa".
There are methods to controlling comments on Weibo. Limiting the flow of comments is acceptable, but directly deleting the posts will often have the opposite public relations effect. Weibo will not delete posts at will unless it is related to its own interests.
"I believe many users who participated in the Orange Big Model public beta have already tested the previous Easter egg, but I found that the activation mechanism of this Easter egg seems not that simple. So, with the help of a mysterious friend, I got a mysterious code. The code is as follows:"
"justForFun("AccidentalRevolution", 3062)".
"What happens when anyone enters this line of code into the dialog box of the orange model? The following image and video appear."
On the screenshot posted by "Yumbaba", the large orange model recreated the photo, but the caption below it changed to -
——"We just wanted to do something fun, but we ended up changing the world."
The air is filled with pressure!
It turns out to be such an Accidental Revolution!
But this Weibo post is not over yet, and then, Yubaba continued to write:
"Because Qianxun banned my public beta qualification, I had no choice but to get another public beta qualification from someone else. I won't release my ID this time, otherwise it will be banned again. I'll just release the real hammer directly."
After clicking on the video, the familiar "Wenjun Yiyan" interface appears, and Yubaba also enters the same string of code in the dialogue box.
After nearly half a minute of reaction, although Qianxun's people had guessed what the result would be, they still couldn't help but cover their hearts when they saw that "Wenjun Yiyan" replied with the same picture and comments as Yuzi Technology in the dialog box.
If hacker attacks could be used as an excuse before, what excuse should be used this time?
This is just like taking a modified Frozen Throne and claiming it was independently developed.
As a result, the player entered whosyourdaddy and found that he was invincible and could kill with one hit!
The smiling faces of dozens of Youzi Technology employees in the photo seemed to be a silent mockery of them!
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and solve it! Is it so difficult to just delete this picture from the system?" Liu Anlin was furious and pushed Fu Yuansheng hard from behind.
Fu Yuansheng's face turned pale. He used trembling fingers to change several parameters and codes of the large model in the local virtual machine. He tried again, but the result was still the same!
I can't find this photo anywhere!
"Continue to issue statements about the hacker attack and condemn the attacker! Explain that this picture was implanted into the system by hackers." Madeline was the only one in the audience whose expression did not change.
As long as you are tough enough, Jobs's reality-distorting force field will be nothing.
Distorting the facts is awesome.
Vivian nodded, but before she could react further, the situation changed again.
Suddenly, a red exclamation mark appeared on the public opinion monitoring panel, and within a minute or two, dozens of red exclamation marks spread across the entire screen!
The official Weibo account of Youzi Technology updated its Weibo for the first time after "Yeah S La Ni"!
"Statement regarding the leaked source code of the Orange model Easter egg mechanism and Juzi-1.98Dec version"
Unlike the previous style of joking, angry and scolding on the official Weibo of Youzi Technology, this time the statement was made in a serious official tone.
"Over the past week, there has been a lot of confusion surrounding the Orange model and a certain company's 'Wen XX' model, which has occupied a lot of public resources."
"As a young startup, Youzi Technology was thrust into the forefront of the internet storm almost overnight. This was also our first experience of the viciousness of commercial competition and the shamelessness of some large companies."
"Two weeks ago, after upgrading our server security system, our company discovered a Trojan program called 'Trojan.RAT.SilentEcho'."
"After repeated investigations, we can confirm that the first public beta version of the Juzi model, Juzi1.98Dec, was leaked via this Trojan."
"A week after the 1.98Dec version was leaked, Qianxun Company released the public beta trailer for 'Wen Jun Yi Yan', which can't help but make us think about it."
"Of course, stealing trade secrets through Trojans is a crime. As a company with a basic moral bottom line, it is clearly inappropriate to make such serious accusations against Qianxun based on nothing more than association and speculation."
“But fortunately, starting from the beta version of Juzi-1.05Bal, every version of the Orange model has an Easter egg called ‘Accidental Revolution’.”
"This Easter egg was originally just some of our feelings. We never imagined that a small company like us could actually create the world's first general artificial intelligence and truly change the world."
"Contrary to what many people have speculated, this Easter egg isn't simply using images stored in the Orange Big Model system. To be more precise, there isn't any image data stored in the Orange Big Model system."
"The AI big model is different from traditional software. It doesn't store any data or images. It simply 'generates' the photo out of thin air after receiving instructions."
“Yes, this is not a real photo, but it is generated out of thin air through the internal adversarial neural network of the orange model.”
"If someone compares them carefully, they should be able to find that although these photos look exactly the same, there are still some differences in details."
"For example, if you zoom in on this one, you can see a little witch in a magic robe riding a broomstick towards the top of the tower in the castle behind."
"And in the photo @alexieBao posted, a little boy wearing glasses appears on the window glass of the building next to him (to avoid copyright disputes, the name cannot be mentioned)."
"In this little Easter egg, if you adjust the contrast of this image to the highest setting, the version number of the Orange model will be clearly displayed in the lower right corner of the image."
"After adjusting the contrast of the above picture to the highest, you can see that our current public beta version is Juzi-2.1Ave."
"This picture was posted by @汤婆. After adjusting the contrast to the highest, you can clearly see the words Juzi-1.98Dec."
"The key point here is that there are no hacks that can achieve such precise parameter adjustments for a large model. This is common knowledge in the field of deep learning!"
"In other words, when 'Wen Jun Yi Yan' generates the same image under the same instructions, we can completely determine that 'Wen Jun Yi Yan' is the Juzi1.98Dec version that our company leaked two weeks ago!"
"Based on the above evidence, Youzi Technology formally reported to the Haixi County Xiguan District National Police Station thirty minutes ago... (The rest is omitted due to policy issues)"
"As some people say: Commercial competition also has to have a bottom line."
"I return this sentence to you, to encourage you."
"Finally, since Juzi-1.98Dec has been leaked, after a mild discussion among our colleagues, we decided to upgrade the 1.98Dec version to version 1.99 after patching the known vulnerabilities and making it open source."
“Although the performance of version 1.99 cannot be compared with the currently public beta version 2.1, it is still an excellent and stable large-scale model. We hope that AI practitioners around the world will join us in ushering in this new era for humanity!”
"Three days later, that is, before 12:00 on April 8, Yuzu Technology will update the official guidance document version 1.99 on the official website. Please stay tuned."
There was silence in the "Pozhenzi" war room.
It's over, there's no room for counterattack.
Fu Yuansheng and Liu Anlin looked even more pale.
Everyone understands that Qianxun, who holds a monopoly on the business, may not be finished, but they are definitely finished, and Wen Jun Yiyan is also definitely finished.
"Stop the public beta." Robert Lee said lightly with his eyes closed.
"Yuansheng, Anlin, you two come with me."
After saying that, Robert Lee turned around and left without paying any attention to anyone including Madeline.
"Robert!" Madeline cried out unwillingly.
But she saw that Robert, who usually obeyed her, didn't even turn his head, and his back became increasingly faint and farther away.
