In the afternoon, in his personal office at the Institute of Advanced Mathematics at Peking University, Xu Yun browsed the news about Benben on the Internet. He acted very calmly and was not surprised at all.
Randomly clicking on a few video comment areas, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he murmured to himself: "The performance of netizens is indeed similar to what I expected, but what happens next is more interesting." After speaking quickly, I lost interest, put the lock screen of my phone on the desktop, and continued to pick up the latest issue of the Annual Mathematics in front of me and read it carefully.
Zhang Yitang completed the final proof of twin prime numbers with the help of topological group theory, and the paper has been published in the Annual Journal of Mathematics.
He learned about this major event in mathematics from Zhang Yitang at the banquet the day before the award ceremony, so he naturally took it to heart.
I just got the latest issue of the Annual Journal of Mathematics and started studying it.
Facts have proved that Zhang Yitang has been studying twin prime numbers for half his life. Although the shadow of topological group theory can be seen in the paper, it is more of his own understanding. After verification, it is basically certain that the twin prime number problem in number theory has been solved.
But I don’t know if it’s because so many mathematical problems have been solved in the past two years that the public has gradually developed a misunderstanding. They feel that these world mathematical problems are not too difficult, and the attention has dropped significantly compared with before. This makes Zhang Yitang’s This paper only aroused heated discussion in the mathematics community but did not spread to the entire network.
Except for some official media reports, the amount of discussion on the topic is very low.
The hot searches are even outside the top five.
However, Deepin Technology must bear part of the responsibility here.
Because the publication of Zhang Yitang's paper happened to coincide with Benben's open access rights, everyone's attention was attracted by Benben, and naturally few people paid attention to boring theoretical mathematics.
As a new primary artificial intelligence, Benben needs time to learn before it can grow and become perfect.
It is normal that the current initial version does not meet the expectations of netizens.
Xu Yun believes that with a large number of netizens helping with training, it will not take long for the version to be upgraded, which will definitely give everyone a big surprise.
Originally, he had been carefully preparing for next week's open class in the afternoon, and he was studying Zhang Yitang's paper by the way. He didn't care about the public opinion on the Internet. It was Yan Kaiming from the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory who was worried and sent him a message.
Only then did he take the time to take a look, and reassured the other party that he could train Benben as planned.
Under the influence of concentration, Xu Yun did not break away from the immersion state until after six o'clock in the evening, simply packed up his things and prepared to go home.
Tomorrow and the next two days are weekends, and he has to accompany his mother and Chen Shihe.
Newlyweds will inevitably get bored.
…
Compared with the calmness on Xu Yun's side, overseas are still mired in research on deep-tech artificial intelligence.
They also felt puzzled and a question mark emerged in their minds.
"Can anyone tell me what's going on? Why Deepin Technology launched an immature chatbot model? Is their genius boss crazy?"
It was already daytime in San Francisco at the headquarters of the OpenAI artificial intelligence research company. CEO Artem, who had stayed up all night, was full of confusion and walked back and forth in front of the screen of the data analysis display center. His mood at this moment could not be described in words. .
All in all terrible.
Since Deepin Technology announced at the beginning of the month that it would launch its own artificial intelligence model, he has paid special attention to it.
For this reason, the company is required to launch version 3.5 as soon as possible.
I thought that in the worst case, I could shorten the gap with deep technology.
Today Deepin Technology's chatbot officially opened its permissions. Because of the time difference, he personally led the core members to stay up all night, wanting to see how amazing the other party's model would be.
Deepin Technology has risen rapidly by relying on intelligent image restoration technology, and it has a legendary and talented boss like Xu Yun. Based on the previous all-solid-state battery incident, anyone would think that the function of the model will not disappoint.
But after experiencing it in detail and systematically, Artem felt as if his mind was blank.
I couldn't believe that Deepin Technology's intelligent model was not mature at all. Thinking that I had stayed up all night just waiting for a defective product, I felt bad.
He couldn't figure out why things were different from what he expected.
But the facts are before us.
At the same time, several other people in the exhibition center seemed much more relaxed.
Among them, Holman, the fatter company executive, poured himself a cup of coffee without haste, put it to his mouth and took a sip before expressing his views with satisfaction.
"I think it's a good thing for us."
"Be happy."
"Although I don't know why they launched a semi-finished product, at least we have maintained our leading position in the field of artificial intelligence, right? Our GPT-3 is still the strongest." After saying this, he did not forget to hand over the coffee as a gesture. He said: "Would you like a drink to refresh yourself?"
"It seems that I overestimated them this time." Artem sighed, with no intention of drinking coffee.
As the conversation started to open up, the engineer next to him also echoed his words.
"Perhaps Deep Technology's research in the field of artificial intelligence is not strong, and they can only reach this level."
"We have worked hard for so long to get GPT to version 3.0. It is inevitable to lead the world."
“Next, the field of artificial intelligence will be our exclusive stage, and I can’t wait to see GPT enter the next new version.”
Artem leaned his butt on the table and fell into deep thought again after listening to what others said. The serious look on his face showed that he was deciding something.
After about half a minute, he suddenly raised his eyes and said decisively: "The worse the performance of Deepin Technology's artificial intelligence model, the more GPT has to speed up the launch of new versions. I want the world to know that our chatbot is the strongest." ." When he spoke, the bad mood just now disappeared and he was full of fighting spirit again.
"We'll do it," Holman said, raising his cup of coffee again.
"Now I should go and have a peaceful sleep instead of drinking that damn coffee." Artem shook his head, dropped these words in disgust and turned around to leave.
It may be that artificial intelligence company laboratories around the world have breathed a sigh of relief, so they have not expressed their opinions on Deepin Technology chatbots online. After two days of weekends, the popularity of the topic has gradually declined.
Entering the new week, Xu Yun came to Beijing University early to prepare for today's open class.
He has been a distinguished professor of Jingzhou University for a long time, but he has never given a formal lecture. Although he has seen many big scenes, he rarely feels nervous today.
But if we want to say who is the most excited at this time in school, it must be the students.
During the winter vacation, when everyone saw that the youngest mathematics professor in the school was finally offering a course, they naturally chose to sign up immediately. Even students who were not in the mathematics department wanted to attend the class.
You can imagine how popular the course is, it is definitely the most popular in the history.
"This is the first time I have seen a teacher's class so popular. There must be too many people."
"Isn't that our senior teacher? He came to attend the class anyway."
"I heard that Professor Xu is very handsome. I don't know if it's true or not?"
"I just didn't expect Professor Xu to get married so early. I heard that his lover is still a graduate student at Beijing University."
At around nine o'clock in the morning, the largest open class classroom was filled with people and intense discussions.
Among these voices, the majority are new ones.
The students who entered the school last summer had never met Xu Yun, so they would definitely have more expectations than the seniors. However, many people succeeded in grabbing a spot in the class due to their speed.
At this time, the seniors, who were obviously much more stable, couldn't help but interrupt while listening to the discussion of the junior students.
"Don't you understand? Professor Xu's class is not surprising even for academicians to come to Professor Xu's class. After all, not everyone can solve two worlds of mathematical problems in a row."
"I will definitely benefit a lot from being able to listen to Professor Xu's class. Even if I lie outside the window today, I will hold on until the end."
"I'll give you a vaccination first. Don't be a nymphomaniac when you see Professor Xu later."
"Professor Xu is not only extremely talented in mathematics, but in terms of appearance, even I, the recognized school idol, have to avoid him."
"I'm afraid your retreat will last your whole life."
…
Soon, in the midst of everyone's discussion, a slightly shrill female voice sounded and the classroom suddenly became quiet.
"Professor Xu is here."
Naturally, Xu Yun would not schedule his class in the first period in the morning and walk into the classroom empty-handed just before ten o'clock.
I didn’t bring any teaching materials.
According to his arrangement, he planned to start the first class with advanced algebra.
Two sessions are temporarily scheduled per week.
Mathematics is the subject he is best at. The contents of the textbook have already been firmly stored in his mind. Of course, there is no need to carry additional textbooks.
Under the gaze of almost three hundred pairs of eyes, Xu Yun stepped to the podium and raised his eyes to look at it.
After a brief glance, several familiar figures appeared in the field of vision.
Among them are professors from the Department of Mathematics.
Fortunately, Yuan Chengming didn't come all the way from the Imperial Capital to attend the lecture, otherwise he would really feel some pressure.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Yun stopped wasting time, cleared his throat, briefly introduced himself according to the process, and briefly summarized the content of the upcoming mathematics open class.
"Everyone is welcome to attend my open class. I am Xu Yun from the Institute for Advanced Mathematics at Peking University."
"I will start classes on time for a long time to come, opening the door to a new world of mathematics for everyone, starting from advanced algebra."
It is also worth mentioning that a camera was placed in the classroom to capture the course content.
This is something Xu Yun specifically explained. He will edit it and publish it on his Bizhan account at that time, so that more students who do not have the opportunity to attend the class in person can learn. It serves the purpose of promoting the development of mathematics and improving the overall mathematics level.
After all, this is also the reason why he chose to register a Bizhan account and become a blogger in the knowledge area.
Soon as the course officially started, Xu Yun shared his understanding of advanced algebra with everyone in an easier-to-understand way.
The more than 300 people attending the entire class were extremely serious, and there was no such thing as deserting to play with their mobile phones.
But at this moment, Xu Yun on the podium paused, and he found that the familiar panel appeared in front of him again.
There is another chapter tonight,
(End of chapter)
