Giant of the times - Chapter 542
c533 Driving the president crazy
An unmanned car is actually like a computer. The engine, sound wave detector, camera system, crank link mechanism, chassis, electrical equipment, etc. are all components of the computer. Among them, the most critical ones are the operating system and central processing unit.
The car operating system masters various data of the car and can make accurate judgments and issue instructions.
When Tesla developed driverless cars, it cooperated with companies such as Microsoft, Apple, and Google, and was developing a universal operating system from the beginning. In other words, this universal operating system is suitable for most cars.
Different cars naturally have different car parts, but just update the corresponding parts driver. For example, if you buy a graphics card for your desktop computer, you can use it normally by updating the graphics card driver.
The world’s largest auto parts manufacturer Bosch of Germany and the world’s largest chip manufacturer Intel are both Li Zetian’s companies, so there is certainly no problem with cooperation.
Intelligent hardware is also the development trend of the future industry.
Therefore, as long as the operating system is installed on the car, it can become a smart car. If the “hardware” is complete, such as installing sound wave detectors and various sensors, it is easy to build an unmanned car.
In the future, automotive operating systems can form standards just like computers!
In fact, since the successful development of Tesla Motors’ self-driving cars, BMW, as the parent company, has begun to use the automotive operating system developed by Tesla, and has also specially manufactured it into a “Smart Driving Box”, and ” “Smart Driving Box” is the host computer equivalent.
If you want to make a car as smart as the artificial intelligence robot Andrew, you just need to add a Siri program to the smart driving box, which is not difficult.
However, the significance is extraordinary!
At the press conference, reporters were all shocked when the CEO of Tesla Motors introduced that the company’s two latest unmanned vehicles can have the intelligence of artificial intelligence Andrew as long as they update their systems online.
As the number of people using the artificial intelligence robot Andrew increases, artificial intelligence develops rapidly and becomes smarter, far beyond Li Zetian’s expectations.
Especially in chatting and expressing emotions, Andrew becomes more and more like a human being.
“Everyone, please watch the video clip on the big screen. What changes will happen when Tesla’s driverless cars are equipped with artificial intelligence?” On the stage, Tesla Motors CEO pointed to the big screen and said.
In the video, the Tesla driverless car still drove from the garage to its owner, but at this moment, the driverless car spoke.
“Hello, Master, Anna is at your service. Please get in the car, Master.”
The voice was sweet, and the people around him looked sideways, with expressions of shock, as if to say, wow, this car is awesome, and it can also talk! Under the envious eyes of everyone, the car owner walked into the unmanned vehicle. Immediately afterwards, the autonomous car spoke again.
“Master, where are you going?”
The car owner casually mentioned the name of a restaurant.
Soon, the autonomous car replied: “Okay, master, I have planned the best driving route for you. Now please fasten your seat belt and we will set off immediately.”
“Master, do you need to relax by listening to a song?”
“Master, the movie starring Eve will be released soon. Do you need to book tickets?”
“The Amazon website will be hosting an event in a few days, and there will be products you are interested in.”
…
Netizens and reporters were all stunned.
“Is this a car or a person? Damn it, if artificial intelligence is added to anything, it will be really different! Tesla cars are so cool!”
“Niuban, drive this car out, it’s a shame!”
“Made, I still want to wait for Toyota to develop an autonomous car. But seeing how powerful Tesla is, I can’t wait any longer and go buy a Tesla now!”
“This is the dream car!!!”
“What about Lamborghini, Ferrari… I would rather own a Tesla! Tesla is the most awesome car in the world, bar none!!!”
“Yes, those millions or tens of millions of luxury cars are useless. Compared with Tesla cars, they are simply weak!”
After the launch of Tesla Motors, it caused a sensation all over the world and once again set off a car buying frenzy.
Many 4S stores are crowded with people.
In just three days, a total of 500,000 Tesla self-driving cars were sold.
The industry was shocked.
The chairman of Toyota Motor Company was so angry that he vomited blood. Tesla Motors became the most popular car in the world, and Toyota Motor’s industry status was no longer guaranteed.
Because Tesla cars are selling so well, Li Zetian had to vigorously build charging stations.
The charging station can not only charge electric vehicles, but also mobile phones and Andrew robots.
By August, Li Zetian had invested US$60 billion to establish super battery factories integrating manufacturing and R&D in more than 20 countries around the world, manufacturing electric vehicle batteries, robot batteries, mobile phone batteries, laptop batteries, solar cells and other Batteries for smart hardware products.
With the rise of Tesla Motors and the proliferation of charging stations, global car companies are transitioning to electric vehicles.
Oil prices fell in response, and oil companies and countries that relied on oil were immediately unlucky.
In the future, oil will certainly remain important, but oil merchants will no longer be able to use it to make huge profits. (In daily life, in addition to being used as fuel, petroleum is also used in nine major oil products: plastics, asphalt, clothing, synthetic rubber, pharmaceuticals, cleaning supplies, food, lubricants, and cosmetics)
Li Zetian has now arrived at the largest super battery factory in North America. The engineering team has been working here for more than half a month.
“Is that a 3D printer?” Li Zetian looked at a large machine not far away with surprise in his eyes.
A middle-aged man wearing a safety helmet was the leader of the engineering team. He nodded with a smile and introduced: “Yes, this is a super-printed robot specially developed using 3D technology. It looks like a robot hovering over a building. The bridge crane on top of the object has rails on both sides, and the crossbeam in the middle is the ‘print head’. The crossbeam can move up and down and forward to perform X-axis and Y-axis printing.”
“3D printing technology has long been popular around the world and is widely used. It can print electrical parts, prostheses, insoles, clothes and even pizza burgers. Now, 3D printing technology has become a key research project in various countries.”
“In terms of house construction, 3D printing technology is also widely used!”
The leader of the engineering team paused, and then continued: “If you use a giant 3D printer to ‘print’ a house, you can print out 10 200-square-meter buildings in 24 hours!”
Li Zetian nodded and looked at the giant 3D printer from a distance, thinking to himself that he should increase investment in 3D printing technology!
There are not many people in the engineering team here, but in terms of project construction speed, it is even faster than a large engineering team with tens of thousands of people, because all operations here are mechanized, including even automated robots.
To put it bluntly, Chronos Construction Engineering Company under the name of Li Zetian is probably the company that uses the most high technology in the world. Among them, many heavy-duty intelligent robots, including excavator robots, cranes, and earth-moving truck robots, are under development.
In fact, every machine owned by Cronos Construction Engineering Company is equipped with a data collection device. As long as there is enough data, artificial intelligence can master this technology through deep learning.
There are many places on the earth with harsh environments that are not suitable for human construction, so it is best to dispatch robots, such as deserts and oceans. The future scale of Kronos Construction Engineering Company will only get bigger and bigger, and Li Zetian even wants to expand it to the space station, the moon and even Mars.
The weather was hot in August and the construction site was dusty. Li Zetian only walked around for an hour before preparing to return to the hotel to rest. Currently, super battery factories around the world are being built by Cronos Construction Engineering Company. I think the construction speed will be very fast!
The next morning, Li Zetian returned to Los Angeles, and the CEO of Uber called.
“Mr. Li, Tesla driverless cars are popular all over the world and have deep trust among people. I think Uber driverless car ride-hailing service can be officially launched!”
Li Zetian nodded, “Well, let’s push it out.”
“OK!”
Following Li Zetian’s order, that night, Uber prompted users to update their software and launch the Uber Tesla driverless car ride-hailing service.
More than 70% of users who have downloaded Uber do not own their own cars, and Tesla driverless cars are currently the most popular car. When everyone saw that Uber actually provided ride-hailing services with Tesla driverless cars, they became very excited. .
“It’s cool, I can also take a ride in a Tesla driverless car!!!”
Uber users updated their systems one after another and then immediately used Tesla’s driverless car ride-hailing service.
That night, the number of Uber orders increased by more than ten times. Tesla driverless cars bearing the Uber logo frequently shuttled through the busy urban traffic, becoming a strange sight.
“Number 110 at your service.”
“No. 9572 at your service.”
“No. 10086 at your service.”
“…”
On Uber’s official website, netizens liked it like crazy, and the comment section almost filled the screen.
“This is my most satisfying ride-hailing experience! The driver of Tesla’s self-driving car is like an experienced driver. He drives very smoothly, and he also tells jokes to make me laugh. The two of us chatted all the way!”
“Holy shit, self-driving cars can flirt with girls, that’s awesome!”
“I have decided not to buy a car from now on, and will use Uber and Tesla driverless car ride-hailing services from now on.”
“This taxi-hailing experience actually aroused my desire to buy a car!”
“Me too, I also plan to buy a Tesla driverless car!”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuah, those who buy cars are rich people! Such expensive prices, we poor losers can’t afford…”
“Is Tesla’s driverless car really that good? I don’t dare to sit on it for fear of causing an accident.” Some netizens worried.
“Believe me, if an experienced driver overturns his car, it won’t even overturn!”
“There is absolutely no problem in riding in an unmanned car, and it is even safer. Many cities are now developing intelligence. The roads are monitored throughout the entire process. Unmanned cars can know in advance what cars are on the road and what their speed is, so that they can make decisions calmly and calmly. .”
…
Overnight, the number of Uber users increased dramatically, and the self-driving car-hailing service became so popular that demand exceeded supply.
Seeing how popular Uber’s self-driving car-hailing service is, taxi-hailing software companies from all over the world have contacted Tesla Motors. All of a sudden, orders are coming in like snowflakes, and 350,000 Tesla self-driving cars have been sold in one week. Cars have caused factories to be unable to produce them.
Of course, with the rise of driverless taxi services, taxi drivers and Uber drivers are facing an unemployment crisis. In addition, many automobile companies have been severely affected and are on the verge of bankruptcy.
Well, these are not things that Li Zetian should worry about, but the President of the United States.
At this moment, President Gal, who was staying in the White House, almost had a nervous breakdown.
Why is urban security becoming increasingly chaotic?
Why did the 80-year-old lady die naked on the street?
Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature?
Stay tuned to watch Attack on the President of the United States…
