Chapter 412 Repair (4662)

“Telomere” AI security module? What is it?
It takes three hours to find the problem and five hours to solve all the problems?
Could it be a system security and repair tool driven by a large AI model?

No, if it was just a tool, Fang Yu would not have made such a boast that he could find the problem in three hours.

This shows that this is a security product that completely breaks down the barrier between AI and the underlying system technology!

Although some of the big guys present are not from a technical background, they have developed technical sensitivity after so many years in the IT industry.

Hearing Fang Yu's words, everyone at the scene couldn't help but feel a jolt in their hearts.

If this is true, it means that Youzi Technology is not only expanding the breadth of AI's application areas, but is also combining AI with underlying technologies, and is far ahead in the in-depth application of AI!
In fact, before the release of the Orange Big Model, major manufacturers had already applied a considerable amount of algorithmic technologies in the underlying security to analyze URLs, web pages and applications, and identify potential malware and phishing activities, but they rarely used deep learning to train these algorithms.

Google and Facebook, which are moving faster, have begun trying to integrate face recognition and semantic understanding based on deep learning into their own underlying architecture three years ago, and have achieved certain results.

However, none of these explorations have truly entered the practical stage yet, and only a few AI-assisted diagnostic tools have been born.

Including big data cloud experts like Huang Jian, everyone believes that it will take at least one to two years for AI to reconstruct the underlying technology.

Could it be that Yuzu Technology has already accumulated such a strong foundation in underlying technology?

Qianxun No. 3 IDC.

Bai Yuheng, who had obtained super administrator privileges, entered the IDC console on his laptop with ease. He looked at Hua Zecheng, only to find that Hua Zecheng was crunching a piece of Yujun pressed pancake while standing behind a technician named Sun Jing and gesticulating at the laptop screen.

Bai Yuheng thought about it and decided to open the underlying log of the mirror server first.

Sure enough, this month-long failure was just like the last one, with no clues found in the logs.

Bai Yuheng couldn't help but feel a headache again and subconsciously touched his back.

This was the aftereffect of his sudden fainting last time. His head would throb from time to time, especially when he was under a lot of pressure.

"Brother Bai, why do you carry such a big bag?"

Just as Bai Yuheng was considering whether to take a painkiller from his bag and take it in front of everyone, Liu Wenxiao next to him suddenly asked in a low voice.

The others basically just brought a trolley case, Liu Wenxiao only brought a backpack, and only Bai Yuheng brought not only a trolley case, but also a particularly large backpack.

"Oh, there is a sleeping bag inside." Bai Yuheng answered as a matter of course.

"Sleeping bag?" Liu Wenxiao was confused. "Even if we have to stay in Yu County today, we'll stay in a hotel. Why do you bring a sleeping bag?"

Then, Liu Wenxiao suddenly realized: "I see, you have mysophobia and are afraid that the hotel bed is not clean."

Bai Yuheng suddenly felt his headache was not that bad, and said with a smile: "I guess you have never been involved in emergency response to system failures before. To do this job, it is normal to stay in the company or the computer room and work around the clock. Without a sleeping bag, the air conditioner is so cold at night that you might catch a cold."

? ? ? ? ?

Sleeping in the computer room? Are all the people in Qianxun so hardworking?
"Qianxun is relatively okay. In fact, our work intensity is not that high. It's just that the failure was too bizarre. Robert might have been completely unbalanced at the time, which led to his movements being out of shape. Many of Qianxun's former colleagues have now joined ByteDance. It is said that the pressure at ByteDance is even greater, and the frequency of overtime is much higher than that of Qianxun."

Bai Yuheng couldn't help but sigh.

Fang Yu, who had been observing the situation on the scene through his mental power, nodded repeatedly.

As expected, he is an elite who has been trained by a big company. Such a natural loser should be treated more cleverly in the future.

He's about to die of sudden death, and you're still making excuses for Robert Lee.

The PUA people in big companies are really good at it.

Equivalent to two and a half hands.

Bai Yuheng then recounted a few bizarre examples that were common in large companies, leaving Liu Wenxiao dumbfounded.

When he was studying for his master's degree, he often lived in the laboratory and heard from his senior classmates who had graduated about how serious overtime work was in large companies, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

Fortunately, I didn’t join ByteDance at that time.

Liu Wenxiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling grateful when he thought about the fact that he had actually hesitated between the offers from Youzi Technology and ByteDance.

Fortunately, I was born... No, I was a mule in Rome right after graduation.

"By the way, Wenxiao, how are we going to divide the work later? I see that Teacher Hua hasn't made any arrangements yet. Do you want me to take you to familiarize yourself with the environment first?" After Bai Yuheng said a few words, he saw Liu Wenxiao's expression and suddenly felt that it was inappropriate to criticize his old boss, so he quickly changed the subject.

Liu Wenxiao shook his head indifferently. "Division of labor? No need. Sun Jing has just injected the Telomere module into A03 after obtaining the super administrator authority. Teacher Hua and the others are clarifying the instructions for Telomere. Let Telomere find the fault first and see what the specific problem is."

This was the second time Bai Yuheng heard the name "telomere". Hua Zecheng mentioned it when they were in the company.

He has always been curious, but he was not familiar with the people from Youzi Technology before, so it was difficult to ask.

"Wen Xiao, what exactly is this 'telomere'..."

Bai Yuheng licked his lips. As a professional security developer, he found it hard to imagine that he could find the direct cause of the failure of Qianxun's "content management" with just a troubleshooting tool.

Even the big orange model can't do it.

After all, it is impossible to put the entire Qianxun system into a large model for the model to learn and analyze. Simply detecting error information through an interface does not bring about a qualitative change compared to manual work, but it may be slightly more efficient than manual work.

It is equivalent to a more efficient human wave tactic.

But he felt that Qianxun's current mistake could not be solved by the human wave tactic.

"Of course, if it's not appropriate for me to know, you don't have to make it difficult. The company must have a confidentiality policy. I understand."

Bai Yuheng added another sentence.

Don't lose your job because of curiosity.

Liu Wenxiao laughed: "Brother Bai, what are you talking about? We are all in the same trench now. Since you can come with us, there is no need to worry about confidentiality."

"Moreover, the 2B business department has already started selling telomere business. We just finished training them last week. It is no longer confidential information."

Bai Yuheng was even more surprised after hearing this.

This security business that I haven’t even heard of has already started being sold?
It has been less than a year since the establishment of Yuzi Technology, and I have never heard of it entering the field of system security. How long is the development cycle? Even if we count from the release of the big model of Juzi, it has only been a few months. Is the development time so short?

Is this thing reliable?

Liu Wenxiao naturally had no idea what Bai Yuheng was thinking, so he pulled Bai Yuheng to look at Sun Jing's computer screen together: "This is the system UI of the 'Telomere' module. 'Telomere' is indeed an AI model, but it cannot be considered a large model. It is an AI-driven fault detection and repair tool." Bai Yuheng stared at Sun Jing's computer screen. The dialog box above clearly displayed each key prompt command.

failure_analysis --component "content_filter" --priority_high......

The statement is concise and to the point. It looks like a dozen lines of code but it is not code.

The feedback from "telomere" was also very direct. The entire thought process appeared on the screen in the form of text, but he could only understand about 60% of it. He recognized every word in the rest, but he had no idea what the telomere module was meant to do.

"Wenxiao, I saw that Telomere just said that it is conducting functional diagnosis. Isn't it conducting a global scan?" Bai Yuheng frowned and asked Liu Wenxiao in a low voice.

Liu Wenxiao was about to answer when he heard Hua Zecheng taking a bite of his biscuit. "Most fault detection tools nowadays look for problems through scanning, but Telomere is different. It is the world's first security module that can automatically and deeply integrate with the target system."

"Its fault-finding and repair mechanism is different from the current fault-finding and repair tools. It is more similar to... well, you know DNA telomeres? They are responsible for maintaining and repairing the integrity of chromosomes and controlling the cell division cycle."

“That’s where its name comes from.”

Hua Zecheng took another bite of the biscuit with a crunch. Bai Yuheng thought the biscuit was quite fragrant.

DNA telomeres? System repair?
Bai Yuheng was stunned.

Can these two be integrated?
Bai Yuheng scratched his head: "Is it a faster 'rollback'? We have tried 'rollback' before, but it didn't work."

Hua Zecheng laughed: "It has nothing to do with 'rollback'."

Seeing Bai Yuheng blush, Hua Zecheng kindly continued to explain: "Telomeres can repair DNA because of telomerase. Telomerase uses its own RNA as a template for telomeric DNA replication, synthesizes a DNA sequence rich in deoxymonophosphate guanosine, adds it to the end of the chromosome and binds to the telomere protein, thereby stabilizing the structure of the chromosome."

"Telomerase repairs DNA, but it doesn't just roll back."

"Similarly, the 'telomere' module is like telomerase. After entering the target system, it will immediately integrate deeply with the target system and become one with it, but it will not affect the operation of the target system. Its only function is to keep the target system in a 'normal' state."

"Of course, the effectiveness of the telomere module depends on the user's fine-tuning of its parameters and on-the-spot communication, as well as its own learning and evolution."

Bai Yuheng opened his mouth wide. What Hua Zecheng said was completely beyond the major he had studied and was beyond his understanding.

"Stay on 'normal'?"

Hua Zecheng took the last bite of the biscuit and licked his fingers: "Are you wondering how the 'telomere' module and the target system are integrated? How does it define 'normal'?"

Bai Yuheng still opened his mouth wide.

I don’t have any. I have nothing in my mind right now.

Hua Zecheng suddenly shuddered, as if he had thought of something terrible. His face showed three parts of fear, three parts of sighing, four parts of admiration, and ninety parts of surviving a disaster. "QFAL, Quantum Fuzzy Algorithm Logic, is a new algorithm that Professor Jorz came up with two months ago."

"This algorithm simulates quantum computing (Note 1) and fuzzy calculations, and learns from a large amount of professional data. It can very quickly and accurately determine what is the 'normal' state of the system, and when known errors and vulnerabilities occur in the system, it mobilizes nearby system resources, automatically generates correct parameters, and corrects the errors."

"At the same time, this algorithm is combined with our Lattice Omni Neural Network, or LONN, and after deep learning, the accuracy of judging whether the system changes are in a 'normal' state has reached 99.83%."

"And if the user knows the specific error manifestation, it will quickly locate the source of the error based on the error manifestation described by the user, just like a person does not know where he is sick, but DNA telomerase definitely knows."

After saying this in one breath, Hua Zecheng let out a breath and suddenly fell silent. His eyes were empty and his expression was distorted. No one knew what he was thinking.

Bai Yuheng's eyes turned red when he heard this.

What is Teacher Hua talking about?
I am currently learning about machine learning, but I just can’t understand anything?

I know RNN, CNN, DNN, FFNN, but what is LONN?
Can Lattice and Omni also be integrated?

In addition, how do simulated quantum computing and fuzzy calculus fit together? The key is, is there such a thing as simulated quantum computing?
Quantum computing requires quantum bits, that is, quantum computers, which are completely different from traditional computers and algorithms. How are they combined? Is it possible to simulate them simply with algorithms?

Well, I’m not an algorithm expert, so it’s normal that I don’t understand it, but can this thing really figure out the cause of Qianxun’s failure?

This is a glitch that has never been seen in IT history! There is no place to learn artificial intelligence.

Could it be that this telomere module can also identify unknown errors?
By the way, Professor Yoelz, whom Professor Hua just mentioned, is a legendary figure and the absolute number one in the field of deep learning.

Who is he? Can I ask? I think Mr. Hua is pretty easy to talk to. How about asking?
"Teacher Hua, Professor Yorz...Teacher Hua?" Bai Yuheng was about to ask about Professor Yorz's situation, but he saw the fat on Hua Zecheng's face trembling and his eyes seemed to have lost focus, so he couldn't help but pat Hua Zecheng.

Hua Zecheng was so shocked by the photo that he stood straight and opened his mouth to say something inexplicable: "I am not a kakapo with an underdeveloped brain and a completely undeveloped cerebellum!"

Liu Wenxiao sighed and quickly helped Hua Zecheng up: "Teacher Hua, we are in Yu County. The professor automatically replied to my email saying that he is on vacation and will not reply to emails for the time being."

Hua Zecheng took a few deep breaths, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare, and his head was covered in sweat.

"Hoohoo, taking a vacation? That's good. How many days will he take off?"

Liu Wenxiao was silent for a moment: "Six hours. The email I replied to when we got off the high-speed train should have less than three hours left now."

Hua Zecheng sat down on the chair, feeling hopeless.

Just when he was questioning whether he was a fool, and the dumbest fool in the world, Sun Jing, who had been staring at the screen, suddenly shouted, "Error information has been located!"

"Single-bit flip! It's a single-bit flip in the FPGA chip!"
-

"It's been two and a half hours! You said you ran a full scan, the ports are fine, the system logs are fine, and the content management algorithm is fine. So can you tell me what the problem is!?"

"4 MAs, 28 MIs, and 113 LOs. What do I need these bug information for? Are we here to find application bugs for Qian? We are here to solve the underlying problems!"

Zhang Ruofeng slammed his palm on the simple conference table, and the team leaders in front of him fell silent.

"Boss, not finding any problems is also a reward. We have previously determined that the problem should be hidden in a very small operation unit or an uncovered abnormal scenario. I trust our team's ability. Since they cannot confirm the problem through system scanning, it means that the problem is most likely not in the software system, but in the hardware. I suggest that a comprehensive hardware system check be conducted on the IDC."

The thirty-something programmer spoke calmly.

Zhang Ruofeng covered his face with one hand. After actually encountering this bug, he realized how tricky it was.

The most difficult part of fixing a bug is not fixing it, but locating the cause of the bug. If you can't even find the cause of the bug, there's no point in fixing it.

In fact, for this kind of system-level bug, it often takes one or two days to locate the cause, but the actual fix may only take one or two minutes.

"Jian Chen, you are right. You lead the team to check the hardware. This may be a tough battle. We must be prepared for a long war. Luo Heng, notify the hotel and ask them to prepare midnight snacks for the whole week."

Zhang Ruofeng took a deep breath and was about to give more orders when he heard his cell phone ringing. He picked it up and his face changed drastically.

"Ysou has located the cause of the error and completed the system repair of the A03 mirror server?"
