Things from Another World - Chapter 1078

[1078. Chapter 1076 Artificial Soul Quantum Computer, Eve (Spreading flowers to celebrate the author’s birthday)]

The artificial soul computer in front of Tang En was completely different from the computers on Earth. In appearance, it looked more like a blunt combination of a prism crystal and an artificial soul carrier. The result output interface was a magic energy projection receiver. , of course, this is different from the TV set for home use. It is positioned as a monitor.

The data storage uses the crystal data storage technology provided by the Dragon Clan. This technology has been used to store crystal cards and customer data of Star Diamond Bank, but it has never been used by the goblins to deeply expand its potential functions. Now Tang En directly took it and used it as a hard drive.

The input terminal is not a keyboard, but a holographic interface also made using magic energy projection. There is already a relatively complete text command input interface on it, but there is no strict standard yet. The interface currently displayed is Clotto The samples used by these engineers are very complex.

This computer does not have anything similar to a mouse. Instead, it recognizes the user’s mental power through a receiver to determine positioning instructions. From this aspect, this soul computer seems to have surpassed the existing homes on earth from the beginning. Computer…

However…

it has only been two or three days…

Tang En couldn’t help but sigh with emotion when he saw the artificial soul computer in front of him. Making a computer is not a simple matter. In order to develop a computer on Earth, the pre-processor I don’t know how many points in the technology tree it took, and it took countless manpower, material and financial resources to slowly transition from punch computers, tape computers and tube computers to transistor computers. As a result, in the high-magic world of Purandar, these basics were skipped directly. , uses artificial souls to simulate logical judgments and calculations. What’s even more incredible is that it only takes two or three days to build a prototype…

But what kind of computer is this artificial soul computer?

electronic calculator?

This thing uses absolutely no electricity.

Biocomputer?

This thing is not calculated and stored using biological characteristics such as proteins and nucleic acids.

Quantum computer?

This thing does not have the characteristics of parallel exhaustive calculations like a quantum computer… but the existence of the soul body is quite like a quantum bit, a quantum state between existence and non-existence. The principle it uses to calculate data should be the same as Is it similar to quantum algorithms?

So, this is a special artificial soul quantum computer?

…This world is indeed too unscientific.

Tang En looked at the thing that could be regarded as an artificial soul quantum computer, and asked curiously: “Is this thing ready to use?”

“Yes, after we completed the work all night last night, we have already conducted a simple test.”

Although He worked all night under the acceleration spell for a long time, but Croto was in high spirits and didn’t feel tired at all. This was also thanks to the tea made from the leaves of the World Tree provided by Tang En. Drinking a cup of it can instantly clear away fatigue and replenish energy. , is definitely the best choice for working overtime all night.

Tang En perked up: “Open it quickly and let me see.”

Upon hearing this, Clotto immediately turned on the artificial soul quantum computer. Without a trace of sound, the projection monitor suddenly ejected the screen. The projection was first black, followed by A light group appeared, which should be the image projected by the artificial soul.

“Hello, the artificial soul ‘Eve’ is here to serve you. What help do you need?”

The ball of light kept flashing, and at the same time a neutral voice that was neither male nor female came from the speaker. Tang En looked at it in surprise. Looking at the screen, this was the first time he had seen the working state of an artificial soul.

“It turns out that you can also talk directly to artificial souls!”

Isn’t this function already comparable to that of artificial intelligence voice assistants?

?

Justeza nodded and added: “It can only achieve a simple conversation, it is too complicated.” “

Why? Our technology is not up to that level yet?”

“No, but…”

Yusi Tisa hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: “This is the meaning of the gods… Don’t forget, we are sealed because we study the soul deeply.”

Tang En suddenly realized: “That is to say…”

” It’s not that it’s technically impossible, but that it can’t be done. If the artificial soul is really given the same level of intelligence as the human soul, it would be a complete violation of the realm of God…” “

I understand.”

Tang En’s heart was filled with emotion.

Amazing, even though Justeza and the others did not create a truly intelligent artificial soul, judging from what she expressed, the Einzbern family may really have that kind of technical strength, even if it is not truly human-like. The same soul is probably very close, so that’s why they alerted the gods in the first place.

“What functions does Eve have now?”

“Because time is too tight, we only had time to input some simple algorithm instruction sets, which can realize simulation calculations of some data. We can slowly improve other functions later as we remember them.”

Tang En nodded slightly. Perhaps this is another benefit of the artificial soul quantum computer. It can be disassembled, maintained and upgraded at any time, unlike electronic computers where the instruction set is created and written into ROM (read-only memory) and cannot be modified again. , unless re-produced.

This also means that the expansion and upgradeability of an artificial soul quantum computer is almost unlimited, unless it reaches the computing limit of the artificial soul. However, since the artificial soul is a computing method similar to quantum states, in the visible time, I am afraid that It is difficult to reach its computing limit.

But equally, this also means that after an artificial soul quantum computer is sold, there will basically be no subsequent hardware upgrades, only software upgrades…

Considering the current development status of Purandar’s mobile communication network, I’m afraid that in the future, the system software upgrade of this magically modified computer may be unified through the wireless network…

Tang En’s expression was quite strange. As soon as this magically modified computer was born, it embarked on the path of cloud upgrade.

“Let me demonstrate a simple function,”

Clotto cleared his throat: “Eve, switch to the computing mode.”

“Yes, Mr. Clotto, we are entering the computing mode… Please enter the preset command.”

After entering the computing mode, the projection display was in the computing mode. A holographic keyboard was projected in front of him. At the same time, the light ball in the projection disappeared, replaced by a black background, and then some white text was displayed on it. Those texts were mainly to remind Clotho of their recall presets. The instructions include various functions such as query, help, formula entry, etc. They have considered it quite comprehensively.

“Since it’s just an engineering prototype, we don’t have to think about too many redundant things. These preset commands are just for our own convenience.”

Cloteau started tapping on the keyboard – it’s not appropriate to say tapping, because there is nothing Sound, but due to the interference of magic power, hitting the projected keyboard can also give Clotto a strong feedback feeling, but it does not feel like playing the air.

Clotto chose a simple preset instruction, which was a formula for calculating trigonometric functions. Then he entered the data, and the results came out almost as soon as he confirmed that the instruction was executed.

The corner of Tang En’s mouth twitched: “In other words, even if you are testing, you should choose a representative one… I have calculated this function mentally…” “

Well, I just want to demonstrate the functionality… So what do you think should be used? Demo?”

What to use to test the computing speed of the computer?

Is it even necessary to think about it?

The calculation principle is different, and there is no need to test the floating point operation speed. Of course…

“Of course it is Superπ – uh, I mean, of course it is calculated using Dahl cylinder ratio (Plandar’s pi)! You should know Dahl’s cylinder ratio is an infinite non-repeating decimal, and the time required to calculate a fixed number of digits reflects the performance of this computer.”

In fact, calculating pi on a computer is of course not as simple as imagined. This involves a very complex algorithm, don’t you believe it?

If you don’t believe it, don’t memorize the value of pi. Go try to find pi and see how many you can find… What is

used on the earth is an iterative calculation formula that has been developed by many mathematicians with painstaking efforts, and Cloteau and the others What is written is the algorithm developed by the dwarf ancestor Dar Cylinder.

No matter how good or bad the algorithm is, at least the results are definitely good.

Tang En, a layman, is blind now – he can only memorize pi in the tens of digits, but let him study the specific algorithm… kill him.

After a pause, Tang En said again: “This algorithm may be used more in the future, so you’d better encapsulate its algorithm separately and make it into an executable program.”

Clotto looked confused: “I understand individual packets , what does an executable program mean?”

“It is a fixed set of instructions. As long as it is executed, the operation will automatically start.”

Tang En briefly explained the concept of the program, and Clotto immediately understood what he meant: ” Got it, let’s do this slowly later. Now let’s show you the operation of Dal Cylinder Ratio.”

As he spoke, he started inputting instructions at a relatively slow speed. There was nothing they could do about it. After all, they were the ones doing the work themselves. The keyboard that came out was something that even they themselves were not yet proficient at using.

After a while, he completed the input, glanced at Tang En, and then started to execute.

The projection just paused for a moment, and then began to flash numbers like a waterfall. It was said that the waterfall was too slow, because the numbers displayed on it were so fast that they had completely connected into white lines!

The projection dimmed quickly, and Eve’s voice rang out: “Warning, the calculation data is too large, the data is on the verge of overflow, the data is about to overflow -“

Before it could finish speaking, there was a crisp “click” sound, which was used as a warning. The storage crystal of the hard drive was unable to bear the amount of data and was burst to the brim!

Eve said calmly: “The storage crystal is damaged and the operation is terminated.”

Exploded?

Tang En looked confused. He just calculated pi, but it actually blew up the hard drive?
