"The computing power of the cloud brain is equivalent to the standard computing power of an ordinary human brain. The cost of using it for one month is 1 magic coin."
Simmons cried out to God in his heart. Since being injected with the magic brain, he has been studying biology for a period of time.
Especially knowledge related to brain science.
The human cerebral cortex has 14 billion neurons, and the total computing power is between 10^14 and 10^15 ops. But the computing power of the cerebral cortex only accounts for 15% of the entire brain.
Of course, some people will ask why, with such a high computing power, the human brain is far inferior to computers in high-precision calculations, and even ordinary people cannot do calculations using calculators.
Firstly, this is because the processing speed of neuron signals in the human brain is much slower than that of computer transistors. Secondly, because the human brain works in parallel with multiple threads, while a computer may only have a few processes.
Human brain signal transmission is an electrochemical process of 100m/s, and computer signal transmission is 70% of the speed of light, which is about 200,000,000m/s.
Even if Merlin's cloud brain can only linearly expand the brain's thinking ability, it is still an amazing thing.
"What kind of alien creature is Merlin, but his business logic is so similar to that of Blue Star people?"
As a big shot who has been involved in the Wall Street investment community for many years, Simmons is very familiar with emerging business models.
Even if it is the latest and most popular DeFi and NFT, he can talk about it in detail.
(If you want to know about DeFi and NFT, look it up by yourself. Also, if you want to play with virtual currencies, start with mixed airdrops and learn more about finding good projects and mixed airdrops.)
Not to mention cloud computing, which has been promoted by Internet giants for many years.
The underlying logic of Cloud Brain technology is completely different from cloud computing, but the top-level display mechanism and charging model are exactly the same as cloud computing.
Cloud Brain is an expansion of the computing power and storage of the human brain. Cloud Brain's charging model is also to charge service fees based on time, but the settlement currency of the service fee is changed to magic coin.
Simmons complained in his heart: "Merlin won't charge different fees for different models of human brains, right? Einstein-level brains will be more expensive?"
"Ordinary people get 1 magic coin a month, so does Einstein get 10 magic coins a month?"
However, Zheng Li is not so crazy and charges in a tiered manner.
Simmons backed out. He didn't have any magic coins in his hand, and he couldn't afford it even if he wanted to.
He used American's magic brain, but the magic coin was still in the hands of the American government.
“I don’t know what it’s like to expand my brain. Maybe I can prove the Riemann Hypothesis within a month.”
In addition to Yun Nao, he found that he could finally post. After clicking in, he saw that Merlin had posted many more posts:
"Reward mission one: Complete the research on controllable nuclear fusion and achieve grid-connected power generation. Depending on the completion, you will be rewarded with magic coins, ranging from 10 to 100 coins."
"Bounty mission two: Establish a long-term base on Mars. Magic coins will be awarded based on the size of the base and the longest stationing time, ranging from 1 to 200. The mission will end when the number of people stationed on Mars at the same time exceeds 1,000."
"Reward task three: Understand the nature of the soul, not limited to qualitative and quantitative analysis, including conjectures about the nature of the soul. Depending on the quality of the answer, magic coins will be awarded, ranging from 1 to 50. The time for completing the task is uncertain, maybe tomorrow or never Finish."
"Reward task four: Design an artificial intelligence that can pass the Haiber test. The specific content of the Haiber test is as follows... The top three finishers will each receive 20 magic coins as rewards."
Seeing this, Simmons had only one question in his mind, who is Haibo?
Blue Star's Turing test and Winograd test are all named after people.
Judging from the Haiber algorithm and Haber constant, there is a high probability that Haber is also a person's name.
Simmons had the same feeling as when he was studying mathematics when he was a child and saw Euler and Gauss, but you were everywhere.
"Bounty task five: Establish unified time rules, including time rules for Blue Star and other than Blue Star. The first person to complete the task will receive 20 magic coins. The question will be closed after the answer."
In addition to many bounty questions, there are also many materials that can be purchased, each of which makes Simmons salivate:
"The manufacturing method and theoretical basis of biological computers, 20 magic coins"
"The manufacturing method and theoretical basis of biological storage, 10 magic coins"
"Analysis of the essence of magic, 20 magic coins"
"Two basic magics - light spell and spell hand, magic model and spell casting path, 10 magic coins"
"Undersea city construction technology, 500 magic coins"
...
Simmons looked around and found that the cheapest one cost 10 magic coins, so he couldn't afford it.
"What does Merlin do? Have you come to Blue Star to do business?"
"Understand the nature of the soul? Judging from the number of magic coin rewards, this question is the easiest to get a reward."
"It should be relatively easy to establish a base on Mars. It should be possible to build a small base on Mars and meet the basic requirements within a few years."
After thinking about the difficulty of each bounty mission, Simmons thoroughly confirmed Merlin's intentions.
For the mage, knowledge is everything, and Merlin's purpose is just to use the scientific research power of the entire Blue Star planet to help him complete his project.
It is equivalent to the entire Blue Star being a research group, and Merlin is the mentor. He distributes research tasks, and those who complete them receive rewards, and Merlin gains knowledge.
This also made Simmons relieved. It seemed that he did not want to unify Blue Star and cause chaos. Scientists are much better than careerists.
It’s just that a lot of it is like preliminary research on interstellar navigation.
The establishment of a base on Mars and the unification of the time rules of the universe, including the study of controllable nuclear fusion, are obviously related to interstellar navigation.
Controllable nuclear fusion miniaturization is the most reliable energy method for humans to go outside the solar system in the short term.
Curvature navigation is simply unrealistic and is too far away from Blue Star.
It will take fifty years for controllable nuclear fusion, and twenty years for miniaturization of controllable nuclear fusion. The most optimistic estimate for curvature navigation is two hundred years.
The unification of the time rules of the universe is because the existing time theories and methods are only applicable to the earth and its nearby space, and are not applicable to the wider universe.
The unification of the time rules of the universe is of extremely important significance to deep space navigation.
On the contrary, most of the materials that can be purchased are biological-related technologies.
This is also the judgment of the Blue Star people. The mage has the deepest attainments in the biological field.
Among them, biological computers and biological storage technology can prove this in disguise.
Simmons can probably guess the nature of the Demon Brain, which is essentially a biological tool, or another organ.
It can help humans open the bridge between will and reality, but it is still a kind of science in essence, but they can't find a research path.
It's like I don't know where to start at all.
