Chapter 412 Repair (4662)
What is a "Telomere" AI security module?
It takes three hours to find the problem and five hours to solve all the problems?
Could it be a system security and repair tool driven by a large AI model?
No, if it was just a tool, Fang Yu would not have made such a boast that he could find the problem in three hours.
This shows that this is a security product that completely breaks down the barrier between AI and the underlying system technology!
Although some of the big guys present here are not from a technical background, they have developed technical sensitivity after working in the IT industry for so many years.
Hearing Fang Yu's words, everyone present couldn't help but feel a pang of fear in their hearts.
If this is true, it means that Youzi Technology is not only expanding the breadth of AI's application areas, but is also combining AI with underlying technologies, and is far ahead in the in-depth application of AI!
In fact, before the release of the Orange model, major manufacturers had already applied a considerable number of algorithmic technologies in underlying security to analyze URLs, web pages and applications, and identify potential malware and phishing activities, but they rarely used deep learning to train these algorithms.
Google and Facebook, which are moving faster, have been trying to integrate facial recognition and semantic understanding based on deep learning into their underlying architecture since three years ago, and have achieved certain results.
However, none of these explorations have truly entered the practical stage yet, and only a few AI-assisted diagnostic tools have been born.
Including big data cloud experts like Huang Jian, everyone believes that it will take at least one to two years for AI to reconstruct the underlying technology.
Could it be that Youzi Technology has already accumulated such a strong foundation in underlying technology?
Qianxun No. 3 IDC.
Bai Yuheng, who had obtained super administrator privileges, entered the IDC console on his laptop with ease. He looked at Hua Zecheng, but found that Hua Zecheng was crunching a piece of Yujun pressed pancake while standing behind a technician named Sun Jing and pointing at the laptop screen.
Bai Yuheng thought about it and decided to open the underlying log of the mirror server first.
Sure enough, this month-long failure was the same as the last time, and there was no clue in the log.
Bai Yuheng couldn't help but feel a headache again and subconsciously touched his back.
This was the aftereffect of his sudden fainting last time. His head would throb with pain from time to time, especially when he was under a lot of pressure.
"Brother Bai, why do you carry such a big bag?"
Just as Bai Yuheng was considering whether to take a painkiller from his bag in front of everyone, Liu Wenxiao next to him suddenly asked in a low voice.
The others basically just brought a trolley case, Liu Wenxiao only brought a backpack, and only Bai Yuheng brought not only a trolley case, but also a particularly large backpack.
"Oh, there is a sleeping bag inside." Bai Yuheng answered as a matter of course.
"Sleeping bag?" Liu Wenxiao was puzzled. "Even if we have to stay in Yu County today, we'll stay in a hotel. Why do you bring a sleeping bag?"
Then, Liu Wenxiao suddenly realized: "I see, you have mysophobia and are afraid that the hotel bed is not clean."
Bai Yuheng suddenly felt his headache less severe. He smiled and said, "I guess you guys haven't experienced emergency response to system failures before. With this kind of work, staying in the office or computer room around the clock is the norm. Without a sleeping bag, with the air conditioning on at night, you might catch a cold."
?????
Sleeping in the computer room? Are all the people in Qianxun so hardworking?
"Qianxun is relatively okay. Our workload isn't that intense, actually. It's just that this glitch was so bizarre. Robert must have been completely unbalanced at the time, which led to his movements going awry. Many of Qianxun's former colleagues are now at ByteDance. It's said that the pressure there is even greater, and they work much more overtime than Qianxun."
Bai Yuheng couldn't help but sigh.
Fang Yu, who had been observing the situation on the scene through his mental power, nodded repeatedly.
As expected, he is an elite trained by a large company. We should recruit more people like him who are born to be fools in the future.
He's about to die suddenly, and he's still making excuses for Robert Lee.
The PUA people in big companies are really good at it.
Equivalent to two and a half hands.
Bai Yuheng then told a few strange examples that were common in large companies, leaving Liu Wenxiao stunned.
When he was studying for his master's degree, he often lived in the laboratory and heard from his senior classmates who had graduated that overtime work in large companies was serious, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.
Fortunately, I didn’t join ByteDance at the beginning.
Liu Wenxiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and felt relieved when he thought about how he had hesitated between the offers from Youzi Technology and ByteDance.
Fortunately, I was born... No, I was a mule in Rome right after graduation.
"By the way, Wenxiao, how are we going to divide the work later? I see that Teacher Hua hasn't made any arrangements yet. Do you want me to take you to familiarize yourself with the environment first?" After Bai Yuheng said a few words, he saw Liu Wenxiao's expression and suddenly felt that it was inappropriate to criticize his old boss, so he quickly changed the subject.
Liu Wenxiao shook his head indifferently. "Division of labor? No need. Sun Jing just got super administrator privileges and has already injected the Telomere module into A03. Professor Hua and the others are clarifying the instructions for Telomere. Let Telomere find the fault first and see what the problem is."
This was the second time Bai Yuheng heard the name "telomere". Hua Zecheng mentioned it in the company.
He had always been curious, but he was not familiar with the people at Youzi Technology before, so it was difficult to ask.
"Wen Xiao, what exactly is this 'telomere'..."
Bai Yuheng licked his lips. As a professional security developer, he found it hard to imagine that he could find the direct cause of the failure of Qianxun's "content management" with just a troubleshooting tool.
Even a large orange model can't do it.
After all, it is impossible to put the entire Qianxun system into a large model for the model to learn and analyze. Simply detecting error information through the interface does not bring about any qualitative change compared to manual work, but it may be more efficient than manual work.
It is equivalent to a more efficient human wave tactic.
But he felt that Qianxun's current mistake could not be solved by the human wave tactic.
"Of course, if it's not appropriate for me to know, you don't have to make it difficult. The company must have a confidentiality policy. I understand."
Bai Yuheng added another sentence.
Don't lose your job because of curiosity.
Liu Wenxiao chuckled: "Brother Bai, what are you talking about? We are all in the same trench now. Since you can come with us, there is no need to worry about confidentiality."
"Also, the 2B business department has already started selling telomere business. We just finished training them last week. It's no longer confidential information."
Bai Yuheng was even more surprised after hearing this.
This security business that I haven’t even heard of has already started selling?
It's been less than a year since Yuzi Technology was founded, and we haven't heard of them entering the system security field before. How long has their development cycle been? Even if we count from the release of the large-scale Juzi model, it's only been a few months. Is the development time that short?
Is this thing reliable?
Liu Wenxiao naturally had no idea what Bai Yuheng was thinking. He pulled Bai Yuheng to look at Sun Jing's computer screen. "This is the system UI for the 'Telomere' module. 'Telomere' is indeed an AI model, but it can't be considered a large model. It's an AI-driven fault detection and repair tool."
Bai Yuheng stared at Sun Jing's computer screen, where the dialog box clearly displayed key prompts and instructions.
failure_analysis --component "content_filter" --priority_high......
The statement is concise and to the point, and it looks like a dozen lines of code but it is not code.
The feedback from "telomeres" was also very direct. The entire thought process appeared on the screen in the form of text, but he could only understand about 60% of it. He recognized every word of the rest, but he had no idea what the telomere module was meant to do.
"Wenxiao, I saw that Telomere just said that it is conducting functional diagnosis. Isn't it conducting a global scan?" Bai Yuheng frowned and asked Liu Wenxiao in a low voice.
Liu Wenxiao was about to respond when he heard Hua Zecheng beside him take a bite of his pancake. "Current fault detection tools mostly scan to find problems, but Telomere is different. It's the world's first security module that can automatically and deeply integrate with the target system."
"Its fault-finding and repair mechanism is different from current fault-finding and repair tools. It's more similar to... well, you know DNA telomeres? They're responsible for maintaining and repairing chromosome integrity and controlling the cell division cycle."
“That’s where its name comes from.”
Hua Zecheng took another bite of the biscuit with a crunch. Bai Yuheng thought the biscuit was quite fragrant.
DNA telomeres? System repair?
Bai Yuheng was stunned.
Can these two be integrated?
Bai Yuheng scratched his head. "Is it a faster 'rollback'? We tried 'rollback' before, but it didn't work."
Hua Zecheng laughed: "It has nothing to do with 'roll back'."
Seeing Bai Yuheng blush, Hua Zecheng kindly continued to explain, "Telomeres can repair DNA because of telomerase. Telomerase uses its own RNA as a template for telomeric DNA replication, synthesizing a DNA sequence rich in deoxyguanosine monophosphate. This is then added to the end of the chromosome and binds to the telomere protein, thereby stabilizing the chromosome structure."
"Telomerase repairs DNA, but it doesn't just roll it back."
"Similarly, the 'telomere' module is like telomerase. Once it enters the target system, it will immediately integrate deeply with the target system, but it will not affect the operation of the target system. Its only function is to keep the target system in a 'normal' state."
"Of course, the effectiveness of the telomere module depends on, on the one hand, fine-tuning of its parameters and on-the-spot communication by the user, and, on the other hand, its own learning and evolution."
Bai Yuheng opened his mouth wide. What Hua Zecheng said was completely beyond the major he had studied and even beyond his understanding.
"Stay on 'normal'?"
Hua Zecheng took the last bite of his biscuit and licked his fingers. "Are you wondering how the 'telomere' module and the target system are integrated? And how does it define 'normal'?"
Bai Yuheng still had his mouth wide open.
I don’t have any. I don’t have anything in my mind right now.
Hua Zecheng suddenly shuddered, as if he had thought of something terrible. His face was filled with three parts fear, three parts sigh, four parts admiration, and ninety parts of a sense of having survived a disaster. "QFAL, Quantum Fuzzy Algorithm Logic, is a new algorithm that Professor Jorz came up with two months ago."
"This algorithm simulates quantum computing (Note 1) and fuzzy calculus, and draws on extensive data to quickly and accurately determine the 'normal' state of a system. Furthermore, when known errors and vulnerabilities occur in the system, it mobilizes nearby system resources to automatically generate correct parameters and correct the errors."
"At the same time, this algorithm, combined with our Lattice Omni Neural Network (LONN) and deep learning, has an accuracy rate of 99.83% in determining whether system changes are 'normal'."
"And if the user knows the specific error symptoms, it will also quickly locate the source of the error based on the error symptoms described by the user, just like people don't know where they are sick, but DNA telomerase definitely knows."
After finishing his words in one breath, Hua Zecheng exhaled and suddenly fell silent. His eyes were blank, his expression was distorted, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Bai Yuheng's eyes turned red when he heard this.
What is Teacher Hua talking about?
I am currently learning about machine learning, but I just can’t understand anything?
I know RNN, CNN, DNN, FFNN, but what is LONN?
Can Lattice and Omni also be integrated?
In addition, how do simulated quantum computing and fuzzy calculus fit together? The key point is, is there such a thing as simulated quantum computing?
Quantum computing requires qubits, or quantum computers, which are completely different from traditional computers and algorithms. How do they combine? Is it possible to simulate them purely with algorithms?
Well, I'm not an algorithm expert, so it's normal that I don't understand it, but can this thing really figure out the cause of Qianxun's malfunction?
This is a glitch never seen before in IT history! Artificial intelligence has nowhere to learn.
Could it be that this telomere module can also identify unknown errors?
By the way, Professor Yoelz, whom Professor Hua just mentioned, is a legendary figure and the absolute number one in the field of deep learning.
Who is he? Can I ask? I think Mr. Hua is pretty easy to talk to, so why not ask?
"Teacher Hua, Professor Yorz...Teacher Hua?" Bai Yuheng was about to ask about Professor Yorz's situation, but he saw the fat on Hua Zecheng's face trembling and his eyes seemed to have lost focus, so he couldn't help but pat Hua Zecheng.
Hua Zecheng shuddered when he was photographed. He stood straight and opened his mouth to say something inexplicably: "I am not a kakapo with an underdeveloped brain and a completely undeveloped cerebellum!"
Liu Wenxiao sighed and quickly helped Hua Zecheng up. "Teacher Hua, we're in Yu County. The professor automatically replied in my email that he's on vacation and won't be replying for the time being."
Hua Zecheng took a few deep breaths, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare, his head covered in sweat.
"Hoohoo, taking a vacation? That's good. How many days will he take off?"
Liu Wenxiao was silent for a moment. "Six hours. I replied to your email when we got off the high-speed train. There should be less than three hours left now."
Hua Zecheng sat down on the chair, feeling hopeless.
Just as he was questioning whether he was a fool, and the dumbest fool in the world, Sun Jing, who had been staring at the screen, suddenly shouted, "Error message detected!"
"Single-bit flip! It's a single-bit flip on the FPGA chip!"
——
"Two and a half hours! You said you ran a full scan, and there's nothing wrong with the ports, the system logs, or the content management algorithm. So, can you tell me what the problem is?!"
"4 MAs, 28 MIs, and 113 LOs. What's the use of this bug information? Are we here to find bugs for Qian? We're here to solve the underlying problems!"
Zhang Ruofeng slammed his palm on the simple conference table, and the team leaders in front of him fell silent.
"Boss, not finding a problem is also a benefit. We previously determined that the problem was likely hidden in a very small operating unit or an uncovered abnormal scenario. I trust our team's capabilities. Since they couldn't confirm the problem through system scans, it means that the problem is most likely not in the software system, but in the hardware. I recommend a comprehensive hardware system inspection of the IDC."
The thirty-something programmer spoke calmly.
Zhang Ruofeng covered his face with one hand. After actually encountering this bug, he realized how tricky it was.
The most difficult part of fixing a bug is not fixing it, but locating the cause of the bug. If you can't even find the cause of the bug, there's no point in fixing it.
In fact, for this kind of system-level bug, it often takes one or two days to locate the cause, and the actual fix may only take one or two minutes.
"Jian Chen, you're right. You should lead the team to inspect the hardware. This could be a tough battle, so be prepared for a long one. Luo Heng, notify the hotel to prepare midnight snacks for the next week."
Zhang Ruofeng took a deep breath and was about to give another order when he heard his cell phone ring. He picked it up and his face changed drastically.
"Ysou has located the cause of the error and completed the system repair of the A03 mirror server?"
