Chapter 311: Pointing at something and cursing at someone else
Chapter 311: Pointing at something and cursing at someone else
This article first uses a large paragraph to state the current progress of artificial intelligence research and development in various countries around the world, and objectively analyzes the impact of artificial intelligence on society.
Finally, it evaluates the broad application prospects of artificial intelligence in various industries in the foreseeable near future.
Starting from this near-future analysis, the article quotes classics, from automated weapons to intelligent weapons, constantly emphasizing the role of artificial intelligence in the field of national defense.
It was from here that Kang Chi saw their true intentions…
In short, it is believed that remote-controlled weapons and equipment are something that is about to be eliminated and outdated, and are completely lacking in scientific foresight and innovative spirit.
Then, by analyzing the Athena AI Laboratory jointly established by the old M technology giant, it is believed that the future must belong to artificial intelligence. If we do not keep up with the international community in the field of artificial intelligence, we will miss the next technological revolution and be widened by developed countries such as Europe and M.
Finally, they calmly cited several R&D projects that are still obsessed with manual remote control equipment, such as the ORW-1 shipborne remote control weapon station, and believed that such projects are completely “wasting national resources” and “affecting national scientific and technological development”.
What kind of manual remote control is needed in the future? It’s all “super-efficient” artificial intelligence!
If you take the wrong technological route, you may have to pay several times the price to catch up in the future…
…
Obviously, this is a trick of pointing fingers at others. Projects like the “ORW-1 shipborne remote control weapon station” are completely caught in the crossfire this time.
Those projects only cost so much money that they can’t be accused of wasting national resources and distorting the technology tree.
What they really want to criticize is Kang Chi’s drone carrier plan.
Only a plan of this scale deserves this hat.
As for why he wrote this letter of remonstrance, Kang Chi could probably guess it.
Some time ago, the establishment of the Athena AI Joint Laboratory put a lot of pressure on them, so they applied to the higher authorities for increased investment, but it was not approved.
It can be imagined that Academician Wang Weisen was somewhat resentful when he wrote this letter of remonstrance.
Bypassing the Ministry of Science and Technology and directly sending a letter to the Council of Elders, it just proved this point.
However, compared with the content of this article itself, Kang Chi was more concerned about how a group of people engaged in artificial intelligence found this “punching bag” for themselves?
There should not be many people who know about the plan of the drone carrier, all of them are senior military officials.
So Kang Chi quickly thought of the problem that Mu Zilong explained to him when he just returned to Xifei some time ago…
It seems that the senior military officials are not all ironclad.
Some people also questioned his development path.
Rather than questioning his technical route, it is better to say that some people feel that their interests or authority are threatened.
But they dare not say it clearly, so Academician Wang Weisen and others have become their pen holders.
But it is not a big problem.
Most military leaders will definitely support him.
After all, if the voice of opposition is strong enough, there is no need to use such tricks at all, just don’t support him.
After reading it, Kang Chi gently put down the file and said with a smile: “Mr. Ren is amazing. You can see the articles sent to the Elders’ Council.”
Mr. Ren shook his head: “Chief Shen sent it directly to me, and it can be reached here. I guess it has been discussed for many rounds above. It is no longer new.”
Kang Chi just smiled faintly.
Seeing Kang Chi’s nonchalant reaction, Ren Zhou couldn’t help but ask, “Are you not angry at all?”
”Angry?” Kang Chi asked in confusion, “What’s there to be angry about?”
”Don’t you see that they are making indirect accusations?”
”I see it, and then what?” Kang Chi shook his head, “Since you all know that this article is not new at all, and Chief Shen didn’t call me directly to stop us, it means that the criticism is not serious at all.”
”How do you know that it wasn’t Chief Shen and the others who helped you withstand the pressure?”
”I know, but isn’t the leader supposed to help you withstand this kind of pressure? Otherwise, if we are left to handle this kind of thing, how can we do the research?”
”Uh-”
Ren Zhou was speechless.
After a while, Ren Zhou took a breath and said: “Don’t underestimate the power of this article. With so many old national treasures signed, it will definitely attract the attention of the top leaders and even affect the decision-making…”
”In two days, a technical seminar will be held in Yanjing specifically for this matter, inviting many experts and scholars in related fields. We are also on the invitation list.”
”Oh?” Kang Chi didn’t expect the matter to be so big. “Did Chief Shen tell you this?”
Ren Zhou nodded.
”What else did he say?”
”He meant to go and see you yourself.”
So you can go or not?
So again, the leader didn’t call him directly, which means that the matter was not serious enough to affect the plan.
”Then don’t go.” Kang Chi said directly, “It’s a waste of time to go.”
Ren Zhou also supported Kang Chi’s decision.
This is actually a Hongmen Banquet, or a platform for these people to vent their anger.
If Kang Chi went, he would only be passive. First of all, his foundation in the academic field is inherently insufficient. Although he worshipped Academician Wu’s mountain, he is still much weaker than the real academic clique.
Secondly, even if Kang Chi debated with the scholars and made them speechless and angry, what would happen? Except for completely offending a large number of people, there is no point.
So it is better not to go and let them discuss it.
Why go to their territory and play games according to their rules?
Hasn’t Kang Chi always had a lot of fun playing alone?
Although Kang Chi’s “Tianzhou Project” does cost a lot of money, he has actually been paying for research and development with his own money.
The higher-ups just reserved a large sum of money. Every time he produced an achievement, they allocated a sum of money for him to mass produce, just like quantum communication chips.
For the leaders, there is no risk at all. They just need to prepare a large amount of deposits in advance and cannot arbitrarily embezzle them. This does have certain restrictions on the investment in other scientific research projects.
For Kang Chi, there is no possibility of being stopped.
Besides, no matter how good the words are, it is not as convincing as making a real thing.
In addition, the most important thing is, how do they know that Kang Chi is not engaged in artificial intelligence? It’s just that the artificial intelligence that Kang Chi thinks of is not the same thing as the artificial intelligence that they think of.
I don’t know when, under the hype of capital, robots can walk a few steps, identify a few targets, and answer a few questions, and become artificial intelligence.
If this is the case, the threshold of artificial intelligence is too low…
Maybe this is the reason why many people have the illusion that Kang Chi is “conservative”.
Although the unmanned equipment planned by Kang Chi is remotely controlled by people, there will definitely be no shortage of necessary automated auxiliary modules.
It is impossible that even searching for enemies, fire control locking and tracking, etc., still rely on people, right? Kang Chi’s standard is that computers can assist, but the decision-making power is always in the hands of people.
And for this kind of thing that is just a high degree of automation, Kang Chi simply disdains to call it artificial intelligence, and doesn’t think it is something worth talking about.
After leaving this matter aside, Kang Chi asked about the progress of the aircraft carrier hull design on Ren Zhou’s side.
