Chapter 2028 Take a loophole
If there is any company or person who has benefited the most from artificial intelligence, it is neither DeepMind, which was the first to engage in the artificial intelligence industry, nor Godfather Hinton, nor Google, which created AlphaGo, or even the person who later successfully invested in chatgpt.
Microsoft, Nvidia, Jen-Hsun Huang.
At this time, NVIDIA can only be regarded as a very good graphics card manufacturing company. Although their GPU design technology is arbitrary, in the eyes of most people, it seems that it can only be used in the gaming field. Few people know that NVIDIA has already developed a variety of chips.
The company has quietly exerted its efforts in the field and created several very competitive products.
In the next few years, with the rapid development of non-game fields such as artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency, Nvidia will usher in a terrifying development period!
Except for Li Rui, a reborn person, few people can predict that Nvidia will become the biggest profiteer in the artificial intelligence era.
For half a century, the entire integrated circuit or semiconductor industry has actually been following a law proposed by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore: When the price remains constant, the number of transistors that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit changes approximately every 18 to 24
Months will be doubled, and performance will be doubled. This law is called "Moore's Law". Under its guidance, a large number of chip-related companies such as Intel, AMD and NVIDIA have emerged one after another.
And just last year, when Moore had already retreated to the second line and was retiring at home, NVIDIA founder Huang Jenxun proposed his Huang's Law. He believed that with the advent of the data age, Moore's Law is no longer applicable, and future updates will
The time will be six months, not a year and a half or even two years.
These words not only overturn Moore's Law, but also show Nvidia's ambition to kill Intel. The war between GPUs and CPUs is about to begin!
For a long time, the core component of the computer has been the CPU, and the graphics processor, also known as the GPU, is often just an auxiliary device to the CPU, specifically used to handle some graphics-specific calculations.
As the demand for computer computing power has increased significantly, especially the massive calculations required by artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency, the computing power of CPUs can no longer meet the needs. Technology companies have proposed new solutions to use GPUs with more powerful computing capabilities.
Release it and combine it with the CPU to perform calculations. With little increase in energy consumption, the computing power can be improved several times!
Huang Renxun keenly discovered this change and has been trying it continuously since 2009. In May of this year, he launched a new generation of GPU codenamed. It contains 7.1 billion transistors and has three times the computing efficiency of the previous generation. It is no wonder that
He dared to make bold statements about overturning Moore's Law.
If Hinton laid the theoretical foundation for artificial intelligence, then Huang Renxun's NVIDIA laid the practical foundation for artificial intelligence. In the future, NVIDIA's products will be synonymous with computing power, and in the turbulent era in the future, computing power will
It is equivalent to a kind of hard currency, even stronger than magnesium gold!
Li Rui also thought about investing in NVIDIA before, but it was only an investment based on income considerations. After all, NVIDIA's current stock price is still at a relatively low stage, only more than 20 US dollars, and it will exceed 100 US dollars in two years.
A five-fold return is indeed eye-watering.
But now, after Li Rui decided to invest in the artificial intelligence industry, his idea changed. He no longer thought about investing in stocks, so how much money could he make.
He wants to join forces with NVIDIA!
As the great man said, grasp with both hands, both hands must be strong!
With one hand holding the theoretical master, he tried his best to take down Hinton.
Even if you can't win Hinton, you still have to win Nvidia with your other hand.
Soft and hard, theory and practice, at least one must be solved!
If both can be done, everyone will be happy and everything will be alive.
Fu Shande didn't know what Li Rui wanted to do with Huang Renxun, but he didn't need to understand, he just had to do it.
"Dahuang, it's so easy to find him!" Fu Shande laughed, "That's a big player."
"Really?" Li Rui was stunned. He really didn't know that Huang Renxun had this kind of talent. To be called a "player" by Sande Fu, how crazy would he be?
Unexpectedly, Fu Sande changed the subject and said: "He likes playing cars and is well-known in the wealthy circle. The first Ferrari in California, the latest Italia, is his. His favorite thing to do is to wear a leather jacket and drive a Harley motorcycle.
Or Ferrari went to blow up the street and was caught by the police!"
"Hahaha!" Li Rui was amused, "Then I'll leave this matter to you. It would be better if we could contact him as soon as possible."
"Leave it to me." Fu Shande took the order and left.
It was already midnight when Sande Fu was sent away. Fortunately, after taking a long nap in the afternoon, Li Rui was still energetic. He tiptoed into the bedroom and found Jennifer lying on the bed fully clothed with her back to him. Her posture was quite provocative. She posted a note
Go up.
After a few clicks, Jennifer snorted, and Li Rui also sighed happily...
At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, an email was received in the email address that Redo left for Hinton, indicating that the auction had officially begun, and the starting price was still 12 million magnesium dollars.
All bidders had one hour to consider whether to bid, but Li Rui did not consider it at all and directly asked Yu Kai to give a price of 15 million magnesium yuan.
Although he is facing Microsoft and Google, which have deep pockets, Li Rui still hopes to use money to solve the problem.
Problems that can be solved with money are not problems for him. What he fears most are the problems that cannot be solved with money.
This bid was also used by Li Rui to test the determination of his competitors. He wanted to know what the minimum price Microsoft and Google could offer Hinton's team was: 20 million? 30 million or 40 million?
Anyway, Li Rui has already communicated with Robin. As long as the price does not exceed 40 million, there is no need for any hesitation.
Even if the amount exceeds 40 million, Li Rui will continue to communicate with Robin.
After bidding, Li Rui asked Yu Kai: "Are you ready for what I told you yesterday?"
Yu Kai nodded and said: "It has been booked, but Xinton may not agree."
"Let's try it. It may not be useful, but we still have to consider every detail." Li Rui said, "I always feel... Hinton is not doing it for money."
Of course Hinton is not just looking at money, otherwise he would not have spent fifty years of his life in an artificial intelligence research direction that no one else is optimistic about. With his wisdom, if he had studied other directions, he might have won the Turing Award long ago (
The highest international award in the computer field, known as the "Nobel Prize in the computer industry").
At this time, in Room 731 of the Harrah's Hotel, Ilya opened the four replies one by one, showing a look of astonishment. He couldn't help but look back at Hinton, who was sandwiched between the two beds: "Professor, Rui
