Chapter 1318: Chapter 1315: Baidu Headquarters, Meeting with General Li

Luofeng said, "If we cooperate and our artificial intelligence system is successfully developed, then who will the results belong to? Although I don’t understand computer systems, I know there should be a superuser permission that can control everything, and naturally, artificial intelligence should have superuser permissions too!"

Upon hearing this, General Li fell silent.

"In my understanding, if the artificial intelligence system has two superuser permissions, it would be a terrible situation, like if I want to do something with it, and another superuser permission blocks me, then what? Even if the other permission doesn’t block me, what if the other permission secretly gathers intelligence?" Luofeng said.

General Li sighed, "It seems Boss Luo has no plans to cooperate? Just a reminder to Boss Luo, our Baidu’s AI project has core members with very high breach penalties and non-compete agreements."

"Honestly, Boss Luo, you really aren’t playing fair this time." General Li mentioned again about Luofeng poaching talent.

Upon hearing this.

Luofeng almost burst into laughter.

After all, isn’t Baidu accusing others of not playing fair?

Not to mention talent poaching, it’s just regular business operations in the commercial circle.

If talent poaching isn’t playing fair, then throughout history, there’s been a lot of it.

Zhuge Liang did it, Liu Bei did it, even Cao Cao and Sun Quan did it.

Except for poaching someone’s wife, which isn’t fair, poaching talent has happened far too often throughout history.

"General Li, President Ma once said, if employees don’t want to work anymore, it’s either because the money isn’t sufficient or they’re feeling aggrieved. You should think carefully about your employee turnover, is it one of these two reasons?" Luofeng said with concealed sarcasm.

If Baidu offers enough benefits?

Then why would people want to switch jobs?

This is the same reasoning as marriage.

Either provide enough money to let the woman splurge.

Or offer sufficient emotional value without grievances.

If both are satisfied, it’s hard to get divorced, right?

And there are women who spend a man’s money, which also counts as good emotional value, right?

Even if the man constantly makes her feel aggrieved, she still agrees.

"Boss Luo previously showed interest in our autonomous driving project. How about I take you on a tour of the relevant department?" General Li said.

"No problem!" Luofeng nodded.

Soon, General Li led the way.

The two of them arrived at the autonomous driving department, General Li actively introduced, "Our autonomous driving system is relatively mature, currently multiple road trials are underway in the Capital City, and throughout the country, projects are being tested to collect real-time road test data. Further testing of the autonomous driving system is underway."

Luofeng asked, "What level has your autonomous driving system reached?"

The autonomous driving system is divided into six levels.

From L0 to L5.

Tesla claims its autonomous driving system is at most L3 level.

It’s merely a regular automatic assist driving system.

Currently, human technology hasn’t achieved even L4, let alone the L5 level, which requires no human intervention.

L0: No Automation: The driver handles all aspects of driving.

L1: Driver Assistance: Assist system provides acceleration, deceleration, and steering control based on specific environments. Other situations are controlled by the driver.

L2: Partial Automation: Assist system provides acceleration, deceleration, steering, and other operations based on specific environments. Other situations are controlled by the driver.

L3: Conditional Automation: The autonomous driving system handles all aspects of the driving task. Respond to the system’s requests, make decisions.

L4: High Automation: The autonomous driving system handles all aspects of the driving task, the autonomous driving system handles all aspects of the driving task. Human response not necessarily required, limited scenarios.

L5: Full Automation: The autonomous driving system handles all aspects of the driving task, the autonomous driving system handles all aspects of the driving task. Human response not necessarily required, no limited scenarios.

These are the five levels.

Facing Luofeng’s inquiry, General Li said, "Our autonomous driving system surpasses Tesla’s but still hasn’t reached level four."

"However, once our AI project progresses further, with both collaborating, we can break through the limit and directly enter the leading era of L4!" General Li said.

After hearing this, Luofeng neither agreed nor refused, but simply said, "So General Li, have you heard of our Lighthouse project?"

"Of course I’ve heard of it!"

"And the third-generation firefighting version flying motorcycle?"

"I’ve heard of it too! And the luxury version third generation was recently launched, I’ve seen those parameters! Speaking of which, our Baidu Company also bought one!"

Luofeng smiled slightly, "Well, thank you General Li for your support to Blue Future!"

During their mutual exchange.

Neither Luofeng nor General Li mentioned cooperation anymore.

Because they had already revealed their answers.

General Li asked about cooperation, while Luofeng spoke of actual products, both sides are smart people, naturally understanding each other’s meanings.

"By the way, General Li, I’m very interested in your quantum computing project!" Luofeng began.

"Are you planning to enter the quantum computing field?" General Li’s eyes showed vigilance.

"We have plans, but we’re starting too late, almost from scratch, so the plan includes but isn’t limited to cooperation, mergers, external hiring, etc., to enter this field!" Luofeng said.

General Li understood Luofeng’s meaning again.

Luofeng said it nicely.

But in reality, it seems like more talent poaching.

Or even coercing cooperation, to achieve the ultimate goal.

"Our quantum computer project follows the mainstream trend, choosing solutions led by Blue Giant and Google. And trying to innovate on our own." General Li said.

"So you haven’t considered Honeywell Company’s plan?"

"No!" General Li shook his head, "Their plan costs too much, we’re different from Honeywell, they have ample research funds, we don’t have enough funds!"

Upon hearing General Li’s explanation.

Luofeng sighed silently.

This is Baidu’s biggest problem.

"General Li, have you noticed a big problem that your current Baidu has spread the layout too wide, fear your revenue cannot support such operations, right?" Luofeng smiled, sharply analyzing, "If I remember correctly? Your quantum computing started years ago, right?"
