I Became a Genius Engineer - I Became a Genius Engineer chapter 101

Humanoid Developer Cheolwoo Lee (2)

A humanoid Ark in Dr. Nam Soo-hyuk’s laboratory.

The height seemed to be about 175, and the body was made of thin but solid iron.

An arc exuding dignity.

Seeing that, something burned in a corner of my heart.

“…… Is this the arc? Can I take a closer look?”

“sure.”

Approaching the arc, I slowly began to examine it.

The parts corresponding to human joints are made of free vector gears. It seemed to be possible to move joints more freely than humans, and TT gear was applied to the core part that requires strength.

I looked at it a little more slowly.

Lenses were attached to the eyes, and microphones were attached to the ears.

The senses of touch, smell, and taste seemed to be unfeeling, and the driving part contained an engine that could be called the heart.

Probably, a 5-stroke engine.

It was better made than I thought.

“Wow… I was surprised that it was made better than I thought. This, isn’t this enough?”

“hahahahaha… Contrary to what it looks like, there are still many areas lacking. Some of the biggest problems, intelligence and security, have been solved thanks to the NF network.”

Contrary to my thoughts, Ark seems to have many problems.

“What part is missing?”

On the surface, there is nothing lacking.

“First, the ITE-X engine was applied to the heart. We are miniaturizing and making it, but it doesn’t seem to be properly made. Sometimes the engine stops, and the fuel economy is not as good as I thought.”

I don’t know if I can use the word fuel economy for Arc, but I just skipped it.

“Uhm, so you’re saying there’s something wrong with the engine.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Is there anything else?”

“Well, there is no end to it. First of all, the lens that becomes the eyes of the arc has many problems. It is a commercially available lens, but the performance is not as good as expected. Especially at night, the problem of not being able to see is big.”

“It certainly is.”

Seeing the same object through the human eye is different from seeing it through a lens, that is, a camera.

Especially when I saw the moon, I felt it a lot.

No matter how well I took a picture with my smartphone, I couldn’t capture the brilliant moon that I saw with my eyes.

Of course, it might be possible to use a high-performance lens or camera like a DSLR, but you wouldn’t be able to put it on Ark’s eyes.

“Um, are there any other problems with the engine, lenses or anything else?”

How many more problems are there?

“It’s a little bit of a trivial problem, but parts like the core and shoulders that use a lot of force are made of TT gears. However, I couldn’t find the gear ratio properly, so it sometimes goes out of order.”

Ah, the gear ratio problem of the TT gear. I’ve worked with perfect calculations before, but the technology hasn’t been commercialized yet.

That part could be easily solved.

“And um…… you can see for yourself and judge for yourself. Jung Hyuk, can you run the arc test?”

From noble mtl dot com

“… Uh, are you talking now?”

“Then now.”

“I don’t know if it will work, but… I’ll give it a try.”

“okay.”

Researcher Song strides to the back of the arc and manipulates something.

After hearing the sound of a switch being turned on, a subtle mechanical sound began to be heard.

and not long after

Jiying- Jijing-

Humanoid Ark touched the ground with both feet.

“Phew, luckily the car started working. Then, let’s get started right away.”

After saying that, Researcher Song started controlling the arc using the remote control next to him.

Arc walks.

Step by step, his gait was sloppy,

Every time you walk… … . It felt like my chest was getting bigger.

‘The future of mankind? Why is my heart beating so fast?’

It was still a robot that looked sloppy, but I couldn’t control my heart beating. Just looking at it made my blood boil.

“It’s impressive.”

“What are you impressed with?”

“It’s just, how should I say it… isn’t it the kind of robot you only saw in cartoons when you were young? Seeing a robot like that actually move…”

Dr. Nam and Researcher Song watched my reaction for a while, then Dr. Nam opened his mouth.

“So am I. I made it, but it hurts my heart every time I see it. I also came here following that dream when I was young. I wanted to make a robot I saw in a comic book when I was young with my own hands.”

“Dr. Nam.”

“Yes. Please tell me. Mr. Lee Cheol-woo.”

“Can I participate in this study?”

asked one more time.

How to say, they didn’t seem to make it simply for money.

dream.

They are people who have come this far in pursuit of their dreams, and they have endured until now for that dream. I felt the need to ask for permission again.

“Sure. Mr. Cheolwoo Lee. You are fully qualified.”

“Thank you. I look forward to seeing you in the future. Dr. Nam Soo-hyuk.”

Dr. Nam and I shook hands once again.

After watching Ark, I returned to the LF lab. There was something I had to do first.

‘Well, I’ll have to make the downgrade exclusively for Ark.’

What I need to do is to perfect the intelligence that will go into the arc.

‘First of all, I need to make it normal intelligence, not the all-around intelligence of the current NCI.’

First of all, NCI was so versatile that it cost a lot to use, and it was not suitable for entering the arc.

How to say… … . If NCI has already learned everything, wouldn’t it be enough to have the intelligence of an elementary school student to enter the arc?

Able to understand and act on human speech.

There was no need for professionalism.

‘Um, what should I do to do that?’

While I was thinking, someone entered my room. The only person who came in without knocking was Minseok.

“Chul-woo. Am I a little late?”

“No, you came just in time.”

“Huh? You were waiting?”

“Well, it’s not like that. Anyway. Tell me first.”

Apparently, Minseok had something to say. How the conversation is going with Google, and how China is moving.

“Uh. Let me tell you what we talked about with Google.”

“Uh. I was curious anyway, how did it go?”

“First of all, as you said last time, NCI’s almighty intelligence is said to be conceded by Google.”

“okay?”

“Uh, it was expensive to commercialize, and did you say it would become a weapon?”

“weapon?”

“They showed me a Chinese report made by NCI. They say it will be bloody if this is known outside. In fact, Google wants to monopolize it too.”

“So we can’t use it? NCI?”

Originally, Google decided to monopolize the license and provided the data.

“No, I tried to give off a nuance to do that, but I flatly refused. No matter how much we had an exclusive license agreement. We are the top.”

“okay?”

“Oh, how much I talked about when I signed the contract.”

“hahahahaha, is it Cha Min-seok?”

“Anyway, Google was betting too. How much better it would be if it licensed strong artificial intelligence instead of providing data. It’s a monopoly, it’s a monopoly with us.”

“Ummm, does that mean we can do the service too?”

“That’s just… I’ll have to do my best.”

“hahahaha, I get it. That’s enough. It almost feels like the stake is half and half, right?”

“We own 90% of the shares. We jointly own the rights to the service with Google.”

“Um, I get it roughly.”

“Because I don’t understand it at all.”

“No, I’ll do it roughly. I trust you, Minseok.”

“hahahaha, okay. You just focus on developing.”

Economical, contractual. Minseok handled that well.

“And what about China?”

“They’re Chinese too… that’s a problem.”

“why?”

“I inquired in China, and NCI’s report was correct. 2017. So it seems that they are planning to hold an artificial intelligence expo early next year.”

“Artificial Intelligence Expo?”

“Uh. The heavens and earth from that report. You know. Almighty and strong artificial intelligence.”

“I heard about it.”

“See if you’re trying to show off that heaven and earth.”

“Do you have any skills to make it right?”

The only thing that raised my doubts was that. I think it’s a joke, but the state is doing it… … . Um, does it matter because it’s China?

“Because I thought it was a complete crap until I saw the report made by NCI?

After thinking about it, I came to a conclusion.

“I think I know. What China is trying to do.”

“What?”

“What is it? It’s a scam.”

“Scam? Deceiving someone?”

“Uh, aren’t those Chinese guys completely determined to cheat? Because Chairman Liu’s words are absolute.”

“It makes sense.”

“We’ll have to show them the truth. Trash bastards.”

“Oh, so now it’s your turn to talk. What are you doing and what are you going to do?”

“I visited Dr. Nam’s Humanoid Arc Lab.”

“Humanoid?”

“Uh, I’m going to build a robot. I’ll solve Hyunseong’s problem and show the Chinese guys an example.”

“… a robot.”

“I know that. I’ll explain the details later, there are more urgent things than that.”

“What?”

“Isn’t it too much to plant NCI on the arc?”

“I’m sure it is.”

Minseok nodded and said.

“That’s why I’m trying to create normal intelligence, not omnipotent intelligence. I’ve been thinking about what I’ll need to do that, but do you have any good ideas?”

“Uhm… even if you ask me that.”

“If you don’t have it, don’t.”

“Oh, something just came to my mind. Intelligence is what we call intelligence. That intelligence is IQ.”

“Yes. The dictionary meaning is that. But why?”

“I wonder if we can introduce that concept.”

“That concept?”

“I’m not a tech guru, so just listen, I mean. It makes different AIs have different IQs.”

“oh?”

IQ, in other words, intelligence.

Different intelligence?

I immediately looked up various things about intelligence or IQ on the Internet.

“Can I get something?”

“Oh…. There is a point. It says that intelligence has a great influence on learning ability. That means… yes, it reduces learning ability.”

The idea of artificial intelligence to enter the arc and the level design of the artificial intelligence came up.

Intellect.

The idea was to classify artificial intelligence according to intelligence.

‘So, you mean the average human being is 100 right now?’

IQ is the standard deviation, and it is said that a person with an intelligence of 100 is the average.

hmm… … . Even if it falls a little, it doesn’t matter because it’s a robot?

I was thinking of making an artificial intelligence with an intelligence level of 80.

The ability to learn will decrease, but the robot can learn 24 hours a day without a break. Even if you don’t understand, you will understand someday.

And Hyeonseong’s factory is a simple repetitive task. I don’t do anything that has to calculate something, or have to design something.

If it was that level of work, even an elementary school student could do it in terms of intelligence alone.

Of course, physical problems or immaturity do not apply to robots.

‘Intelligence… … . I’ll have to tweak the x2xx algorithm a bit.’

Once I had an idea, how to make it was drawn naturally in my head.

“Thank you for the great idea, Minseok.”

“Really? hahahaha, I’m glad I was helpful.”

Minseok scratched his head and said.
