Chapter 159 Computing Power Requirements

Chapter 159 Computing Power Requirements

June 8, afternoon.

The surface temperature continued to drop to 32 degrees.

This is a temperature that is already within the normal range.

Many shelters completely opened their doors to the outside world, allowing residents to go out and enjoy the long-lost vast world outside.

For a while.

In the ruins of a city that was once deserted.

In some places, there were even signs of overcrowding.

This has also resulted in a large number of vehicles carrying supplies or simply out for fun often being stuck in traffic for a long time when passing through these places.

After all, it was already very good that the engineering vehicles that were involved in clearing the city ruins were able to barely clear out a one-way lane in the extremely harsh high temperature environment.

But they won't think further about traffic jams.

That is a luxury that only exists in peacetime.

The second underground floor of the farmyard is the control center.

As one of the two new giants in Jianghe City.

All day today, Su Wu was busy dealing with matters related to Jingyuan Shelter.

A large shelter with a population of over 30.

The various complex situations inside are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

With the help of artificial intelligence and the Chenxin sisters.

Su Wu spent more than ten hours.

Only then was the Jingyuan Shelter managed to be stabilized.

He reorganized and expanded the temporary security team into a formal guard force with 1500 people.

Then, the original internal affairs departments of the shelter will be used as the framework.

The original staff were temporarily recalled to take charge of the daily operation of the shelter.

And at the same time, in this process.

Su Wu was extremely cautious about delegating power.

Basically, whether it is the public security guard or the internal affairs department.

Everyone only has the power to record and make suggestions. The rest are just tools to execute orders.

All specific decision-making is left to artificial intelligence.

Thus.

The handling of some things is certainly a bit rigid and there is a high possibility of errors.

But at least, it can be generally fair overall and avoid most of the abuse of power and corruption.

It will not lead to too much conflict and unrest among ordinary people.

The basic governance framework was established.

The first thing Su Wu did was to repair and increase the number of cameras.

All public spaces in the shelter are under surveillance.

Then all residents of the shelter were asked to carry their mobile phones with them, and monitoring bracelets were issued to those who did not have mobile phones.

These processes basically replicated Su Wu's original integration process of the Green Lemon Shelter.

And the benefits are quite obvious.

After the instructions of artificial intelligence can be smoothly transmitted to each specific person with the help of mobile phones and monitoring bracelets.

The order in the entire shelter immediately showed a marked improvement.

Start unleashing huge productivity.

The original factories, plantations, etc. have gradually resumed normal operations.

However, with the stability of Jingyuan Shelter.

Su Wu had to face a new problem.

The computing power of artificial intelligence is not enough.

Today, from industrial production, to mining and transportation, to commanding armed groups, to all aspects of production and life of hundreds of thousands of people.

All require artificial intelligence to maintain.

Huge demand gap.

The laptop computer that had been upgraded to supercomputer level and the tactical computer of the micro mecha.

They are all a little overwhelmed.

“We have to upgrade our computing power again.”

Su Wu was in deep thought.

This is not an easy task.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Su Wu is now able to produce mid-range chips on its own.

By occupying the Jingyuan Shelter and through long-term foreign trade in the past, he has accumulated more than 10,000 top-level smart chips. But even if all the chips in Su Wu's hands are added together.

The sum of their computing power is still not as good as the super laptop computer in the shelter that was upgraded from the survival point and serves as a carrier of artificial intelligence.

Specific proportion

It would take a collection of about 5 top-level smart chips to achieve the same computing power as a super laptop.

And quantity is not the most important issue.

The key is that there are 5 top-level smart chips, which consume up to 1 kWh of electricity per hour.

Include the ten 600-kilowatt thermal generators at the Green Lime Shelter.

The current power generation capacity of the Suwu Shelter is not enough to power these 5 top-level smart chips.

In comparison, a laptop with the same computing power only requires 100 kWh of electricity per hour.

The computing power costs of the two parties differ by a full hundred times.

"Just use 45 survival points and add computing power equivalent to three super laptops."

After weighing it for a while.

Su Wu has made the best and only upgrade plan at present.

Perhaps it’s because of the huge gap in technology.

When using survival points.

Whether it is based on top-level smart chips or mid-range micron-level chips for upgrades.

The final computing power obtained.

They are basically fixed at every fifteen survival points, which is equivalent to the computing power of a super laptop computer.

It is neither more nor less than when Su Wu first started building the shelter.

No discounts were given.

And after this expenditure.

Su Wu's survival point reserves dropped directly from three digits to two digits.

Only 95 points left.

The computing power has been upgraded.

Su Wu was able to temporarily escape from the affairs related to Jingyuan Shelter.

Now that I have time, I began to take stock of the gains from this battle.

The Jingyuan Shelter is actually an underground city.

Its supplies.

The number was so large that Su Wu was shocked.

Not to mention anything else.

The coal reserves alone amount to one million tons.

When Su Wu saw it for the first time, he almost thought he was dazzled.

The reserves of the three basic consumables, oil, steel, and cement, are also calculated in tens of thousands of tons.

Su Wu even found a full half ton of gold in Yang Chaopeng's private vault.

If all this gold were used to convert into nuclear fuel for power generation.

That's equivalent to millions of tons of coal.

“This is a real fortune.”

Su Wu couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

He has worked so hard to develop it for so long.

The resources finally accumulated were not as much as this time's occupation of the Jingyuan Shelter.

However, let’s consider it from another perspective.

With such a huge amount of resources.

Su Wu's next step means that he can continue to accelerate development.

Speaking of it.

One point needs to be mentioned.

After occupying the Jingyuan shelter.

Su Wu even considered at one point whether to move the main base to Jingyuan Shelter.

After all, the space there is thousands of times larger than the farmyard shelter.

All conditions are obviously much better.

But unfortunately, the doomsday survival system seems to be tied to the farmyard shelter.

No matter how Su Wu tried, he couldn't find a way to change the binding.
