Chapter 503 Press Conference (V) 5300
Luke stood up suddenly, and the chair behind him made a clanging sound.
"What did I say!? What did I say!?"
“AI operating system!”
Luke shook his fist vigorously and looked at Song Runwen with contempt.
“Rich industry knowledge and keen insights?”
"hehe."
Song Runwen was a tough guy in the group. He was the first to grab credit and the first to push responsibility. He said one thing to one person and another to another. He was a master at office infighting and a complete and sophisticated "moral vacuum."
Initially, the account "Science Machine" was created by several of them together, and he was also a member of the account team, responsible for post-production.
Because registering an institutional account was too troublesome and the internal approval process was also very long, they used Song Runwen's personal information to register a personal account.
As a result, after the account became popular, Song Runwen kicked the rest of them out of the team, and this account really became Song Runwen's personal account.
"Lei Jun said it's an AI operating system, so it must be an AI operating system?"
Song Runwen's eyes flickered, and he didn't even look at Luke.
"Luo Yonghao also said that Hammerhead is the best phone in the Eastern Hemisphere."
"Lei Jun said that rice would become the world's number one within five years, but it's already been three years, and now it's all others."
Luke sneered and was about to say something when Lei Jun on the screen spoke on the stage.
"I'm sure many people have guessed it. We've partnered with Yuzu Technology to combine Xiao Ai with the Orange model and create a new Xiao Ai within the system."
"Yes, you guessed it right."
Song Runwen had just smiled as if to say "as expected" when he heard Lei Jun say "but".
"But if it were just that simple, what we released this time wouldn't be called Youmi OS."
After saying that, Lei Jun pressed the fingerprint button on the back, and a ball of light that flickered slowly like breathing popped up under the screen.
"Yumi-san, turn on speakerphone. Please send a WeChat message to my wife, telling her I can't be home for dinner today. Then, please order a bouquet of roses for her to be delivered to my house. Efficiency is paramount, the sooner the better. Thank you."
Then, a gentle female voice sounded on the screen: "Okay, I've turned on the speaker mode. I will send a WeChat message to your wife right away and order a bouquet of roses to be sent to your home."
Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!
Before anyone could exclaim in surprise, they heard the phone ring again:
"I have sent a WeChat message to your wife. You can open WeChat at any time to check the message I sent."
"Also, I've checked all the businesses within a five-kilometer radius of your home that offer flower delivery. The fastest delivery time is 1.5 hours, and the cost will be 118 yuan. Please confirm and proceed with fingerprint recognition."
Lei Jun's index finger lightly touched the fingerprint recognition on the back, and the phone made a ding sound.
"The order has been placed with Flower's. The estimated delivery time is one hour and thirty-five minutes."
"I will keep an eye on the order delivery status at all times and notify you immediately of any changes. You can also open the "Eat It" app to check the order status yourself."
Then, the ball of light on the screen disappeared.
Lei Jun smiled as he took out his phone, opened the app "Has Your Food Been Already" and entered the order page. Sure enough, there was an order for flower delivery!
"The home address is included in the order details, so I won't show it."
Afterwards, Lei Jun opened WeChat again, clicked on an avatar, and displayed the conversation history.
There was a message on it: Wife, I’m too busy today. You don’t have to wait for me for dinner tonight. I may be home late.
With a loud bang, the scene exploded again.
Everyone instantly remembered the shock when Apple released Siri five years ago.
Siri is indeed the most widely used voice assistant. It shocked the world when it was released five years ago, but in fact the technology is not advanced. Even Google Now, which was released at the same time, can beat Siri.
Not to mention the Pixel, which Google just released 20 days ago and replaced Nexus as Google's favorite.
Pixel is Google's own mobile phone, manufactured by HTC and equipped with the highest version of native Android 7.1.
Google's new version of "Google Assistant" built into Pixel incorporates its own lightweight hugging model, which beats Siri in iOS in seconds.
Even the Bomb 7, which was recalled globally just two months after its release, has introduced a large neural network model into its voice assistant system. According to its license agreement, it can be seen that the Orange model 1.99DEC is used.
Apple's response is really slow. Among the major manufacturers, only Apple has not made any AI improvements to its system so far.
IP7 and iOS10, which were just launched a month ago, do not have any signs of AI at all. Even Siri is still as stupid as ever.
Of course, this does not prevent Apple fans from washing fruits like rice water, saying that Apple does not want to push immature technology to the market.
This is how they cleaned the 5V1A charging, the LCD panel, and even the one that doesn't support wireless charging. The outdated Lighting interface is still cleaned this way.
In fact, compared to other large companies, Apple's AI laboratory is rubbish, not even as strong as its previous Qianxun technology. It took them two years to develop DNN and still didn't understand it.
There is no contextual memory, no complete semantic recognition, no multi-round interaction...it still uses the outdated rule engine + slot filling technology "state machine".
But now, compared with this Youmi classmate, not to mention the artificial intelligence idiot Siri, even the Google Assistant in the Pixel phone that Google just released twenty days ago is not as smart!
Just at this moment, Lei Jun's phone suddenly flashed, and a new message suddenly popped up on the WeChat interface of him and his wife on the big screen.
"When have you eaten at home in the past two months? The sun came out from the west today, and you still had the nerve to tell me? I don't care whether you can go home for dinner or not, but you must go to the parent-teacher meeting on Saturday!"
Lei Jun coughed awkwardly and was about to close the interface when his finger accidentally touched the fingerprint area on the back of the phone for a long time, summoning Yumi-san again.
The light ball flickered. "Based on your current chat interface, do you want me to notify the merchant to add an apology card saying 'Wife, I was wrong' to the pre-ordered roses?"
"The rider has not yet picked up the goods and can still modify the order."
The whole place couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Hahaha, damn, Mr. Lei’s show is really amazing.
He is indeed the most marketing-savvy manufacturer in the whole Zhou Dynasty.
Most of the onlookers were just amazed at Youmi's ability and laughed, but few of the many professionals and semi-professionals watching the press conference were laughing. They all looked shocked.
Rice gone crazy! ?
Are you doing this kind of thing because you're afraid you won't die fast enough?!
The general user group's perception of technology is lagging behind, and not everyone is so curious about new technologies.
From the birth of AI to now, most people do not have a very clear understanding of AI even if they have used Ysou and Tabo.
They just think it’s easy to use, but they have no idea what specific changes have taken place, why it’s easy to use, or how sci-fi the technological breakthroughs behind it are.
But whether in person or watching the press conference on a computer, most of the people were 3C enthusiasts. They all had some understanding of the current capabilities of AI and knew that AI had long been able to determine humans' true intentions through their vague instructions.
Just like what Lei Jun just said, he sent a WeChat message to his wife, but he did not specify the content of the WeChat message. However, AI can directly generate the content he wants to express. This is the basic capability of the big model.
As long as there is a clear request, it can even write a sonnet and send it to others directly according to this instruction.
Similarly, AI can directly search for stores where orders can be placed, screen suitable stores, and then place orders. This is normal and does not exceed the intelligent scope of the large model at all.
These are actually not surprising.
But when it is combined with system operation, it is very rare!
Even if this system is based on AI, both WeChat and Xiaomi are separate apps, and WeChat is even more of a "data island". Even if AI has the ability to help users send WeChat messages, it is impossible for Penguin to open system-level permissions to Xiaomi!
The only explanation is that Youmi OS bypassed the permission isolation and connected these apps to its own AI central control logic!
This also means that Youmi OS completely avoids the security standards and permission control model required by GMS, and it is impossible to pass Google's automated test suites such as CTS (Compatibility Test Suite) and VTS (Vendor Test Suite)!
If you fail to pass these automated suite tests, you will not be able to obtain GMS certification, and it will be impossible to purchase a GMS license!
Without GMS, how can you sell in overseas markets?
Do you want to be the second Ali Cloud OS! ?
It is true that Android is an open source system and anyone can use it, but that does not mean that Google does not make money from Android. Android's channel for making money is GMS.
The full name of GMS is "Google Mobile Service" and it is not a separate application.
Instead, it is a service suite that covers all core functions including the Play App Store, Google account synchronization, location services, background push, payment, maps, etc.
Android is free, but GMS is charged.
Although the GMS licensing fee is not high, and can even be waived depending on the region and manufacturer, as long as GMS is used, the default search engine must be Google.
This action alone adds billions of searches to Google every day.
Advertising revenue doubles every year.
Mobile phone manufacturers cannot bypass Google's Play Store, let alone uninstall Google's entire suite of apps.
Moreover, like fruits, Google Play Store will charge a commission of 15-30%.
Google's open source of ASOP has actually brought greater benefits to Google.
Of course, manufacturers can also choose not to use GMS, but the consequence is that they will not be able to install Google's apps or download apps from the Google App Store.
These services are indeed not needed in Da Zhou, but if manufacturers want to export, their customized Android systems must obtain GMS services.
Without GMS service, you can’t sell your products in any other country in the world!
Because without GMS service, this phone is just a brick abroad, and no one is willing to spend hundreds of dollars to buy a brick with a display.
Four years ago, Ali created a system that was "compatible with Android applications", but in essence it was a separate system that rewrote the underlying architecture!
Most people thought that Ali's YunOS four years ago was a customized version of Android, but it is not. YunOS is much bolder and more advanced than most people imagine.
YunOS is not a customized version of Android's AOSP code, but an operating system based on Ali's own Linux distribution AliOS, which is a "non-Android kernel + Android application compatibility layer"!
In other words, Ali used the Linux kernel to create an operating system, and then made this operating system compatible with Android applications through "mapping" and other methods, trying to build its own ecosystem and fundamentally break Google's control chain.
At that time, several mobile phone companies had announced that they would launch YunOS phones. However, one day before the release of the phones, they were threatened by Google to choose between the two and were forced to return to the Android camp.
Today, YunOS, which is based only on the Linux 3.x kernel, is of course outdated and cannot be deader.
But the impact it once brought to Google can be said to be unprecedented, far greater than the challenge that Amazon OS later posed to Android.
How about Ahri? Isn't he better than your Mythic+? Isn't Ma Yun better than your Thunder Lord?
Wasn’t YunOS killed by Google?
If YunOS dies, Ahri won't be seriously hurt, but if your overseas market is gone, will Dami still exist? You are now relying on the overseas market to survive!
However, this system does seem to be more advanced, and rice may also gain a larger market share in the country with the help of this system.
YoumiOS may be able to resist a little longer than YunOS, but no matter how long it resists, it will only be a circle of its own. The problems in the overseas market are still an unsolvable chasm!
Many professionals' faces turned red and white, and they began to predict the consequences if rice could not obtain GMS certification.
Lei Jun seemed unaware of anything, and still had a shy and honest smile on his face.
"I'm sorry for making everyone laugh just now. I really didn't care enough about my family. I'll be more careful next time."
There was laughter again at the scene.
In recent years, Zheng Zhi is right to say that he is "afraid of his wife" and "a henpecked man". Most men are not ashamed of it but proud of it, and the market also accepts this kind of male image more.
"What I just showed you is only a small part of Youmi OS's features. In fact, the 'Youmi Classmate' personal assistant is only a small part of Youmi OS's features."
During the development of Youmi OS, engineers at both Dami and Youzi Technology faced a question: What does a true AI operating system look like?
“If AI is just a plug-in on the system, then it is not an AI operating system, but an AI-compatible platform.”
"In our opinion, the AI operating system is integrated into the underlying system architecture. All operating logic and interaction logic will change, making it smarter and more user-friendly than current mobile phones."
Lei Jun operated something on his phone, and everyone stared at the changes on the big screen.
"For example, during our use, we encountered insufficient storage space due to the system's inherent file management issues."
"But in fact, a large number of these files are waste files generated during our operations. Even if we use cleaning software to clean them, they are often not fully identified."
"For example, there's a common problem in WeChat chat logs: duplicate files."
"Every time I forward a message, WeChat automatically backs up the same file, and long-expired, almost useless files remain on my phone. As a result, my phone gets slower and slower the more I use it."
"Due to inherent problems with the file management system, this kind of situation isn't limited to WeChat; almost all Android apps have similar issues."
"Even if users buy a 256GB phone, it will still become slower and slower after using it for a while."
"Of course, with the improvement of mobile phone hardware performance and system optimization, the situation has improved a lot in recent years. But if you test it, you will find that after one or two years of use, the performance degradation curve will drop sharply."
“But is this how the human brain works?”
At this point, Lei Jun said to the phone:
"Yumi-san, please tell us how many duplicate files you have now?"
The phone screen lit up: "Hello, I don't have any duplicate files now. The file management system of Youmi OS does not have the concept of duplicate files."
!!!!!!!!!!!!
Doesn't support the concept of duplicate files?
What's the meaning?
Seeing everyone's reaction, Lei Jun smiled: "Explain it to everyone in detail."
The light ball on the phone flickered. "Okay, Youmi OS's file management system uses a memory-like storage logic. It only retains a unique index for the same content. All calls involving this file will be automatically mapped to this file."
“Therefore, there are no duplicate files in YoumiOS.”
Hearing this, Lei Jun turned off the screen and smiled at the stunned audience:
"It's not just a file management system, it also includes a memory management system, a process management system, a device driver system, a user interface system, a network management system, a power management system, and so on..."
“We have made similar improvements to almost all functional modules within the system.”
"It can be said that this is an operating system born entirely for AI!"
At the same time Lei Jun said this, the total number of people watching the live broadcast on Youku and Tabo officially exceeded 5 million!
Everyone in the venue stood up and applauded.
Awesome!
So awesome!
Although many professionals still had doubts about the actual operating speed and stability of this system, most people stood up and applauded.
But they are also increasingly certain that this system will never be sold publicly and will never obtain Google's GMS certification.
At least it is not possible to sell it publicly at this stage.
Because Xiaomi cannot currently afford the consequences of Google canceling its GMS authorization.
As for passing the certification, haha, that is impossible.
Are you going crazy thinking about this?
After making so many changes, you still want to pass the automatic detection module certification? There are tens of thousands of automatic certification items, and if even one key item fails, the certification will not be issued.
The biggest possibility is to use this thing to negotiate with Google and reach a technical cooperation or something, so that Google will be afraid to act rashly.
However, being able to produce something like this at least shows that rice is a sure thing!
Later, as long as some of these things are incorporated into MIUI and a simplified version called Youmi OS is made and can pass certification, it will still sell well.
Many people at the scene looked at Lei Jun on the stage with complicated expressions.
Lei Jun was very excited. This was the first time in all these years that he had received such overwhelming support.
After a full minute, the applause and cheers finally died down. Lei Jun adjusted his in-ear monitor:
"As we all know, Android's underlying architecture currently doesn't support AI. To deeply integrate AI with the system architecture, we conducted brand-new development and research on the Android system. Ultimately, we successfully integrated a large AI model into the operating system."
"I must emphasize one point. As you've just seen, all payment transactions must go through identity verification processes, including fingerprint authentication. During the GMS certification process, it passed 152,858 tests, the highest number of tests passed among all deeply customized systems."
“Therefore, last week, Youmi OS has obtained GMS certification.”
Although most of the audience did not pay attention to what Lei Jun said, the professionals were shocked more than any of the previous words.
GMS certified?
Who won it?
Youmi OS?
Did you arrest Page and George? No, Page and Brin, yes, Page and Brin’s son?
It's already so bad, and it still got certified! ?
For a moment, all the professionals who knew about the past felt a sense of regret.
Ahri’s YunOS died unjustly.
It's too lame.
