Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 207 [Take A-Mei to the Ditch]

The technologies Xiao Yu brought back from the Blue Star World this time included more than just these, including software and hardware technologies for humanoid robots, software and hardware technologies for the chip industry, etc., all of which were stored in the data center of the underground base for retrieval when needed in the future.

He also established a technical database in the underground base, and when the technical database is established in the Blue Star world in the future, Xiao Yu will copy a copy of the included technologies, regardless of whether they are useful or not, and store them for later use.

The series of technologies brought back this time are not the most advanced technologies in the Blue Star World. Most of them are very conventional, public, and even backward and eliminated technologies in the Blue Star World, but on Earth they are definitely leading-edge technologies.

For example, the 3D stacked chip technology is a packaging technology that gradually stacks multiple chip layers or chips in a vertical direction and realizes inter-layer communication through specific interconnection technology.

In fact, chip companies on this side of the world have already begun to study the number of chip stacking layers, but it is still very useless.

The process of stacking chips in layers in the vertical direction is complex and costly, requiring high-precision lithography, etching, bonding and other processes, and extremely high requirements for process control and equipment. The stacking and interconnection of multiple layers of chips involve complex process steps. Problems in any link may cause the entire chip to fail, and the yield rate is difficult to guarantee.

The complex internal structure of stacked chips, the connections between multi-layer chips, and the differences in thermal expansion coefficients of packaging materials may lead to stress concentration during chip operation, causing internal chip connection breakage, short circuits and other faults, reducing the reliability and service life of the chip.

In addition, another pain point is the difficulty in heat dissipation. When multiple chips are stacked together, heat is concentrated and the heat dissipation channel is narrow, causing heat dissipation to become a huge pain point for 3D stacked chips.

However, the Blue Star world has developed mature 3D packaging and stacking chip technology very early. There is no other way, because this world has natural room-temperature superconducting veins. With the support of this material, there is almost no heat loss. The heat dissipation pain point of stacked chips does not exist in the eyes of human engineers in the Blue Star world, or it can be easily solved.

Without the pain points, the advantages of 3D stacked chips are immediately magnified.

With the same chip area, 3D stacking can integrate multiple functional modules together to achieve more functions. For example, different types of chips such as processors, memory, and sensors can be stacked together to form a highly integrated system-on-chip SoC to meet the needs of complex application scenarios.

By shortening the signal transmission distance, 3D stacked chips can effectively reduce signal delay and increase data transmission speed. For example, in the stacking design of cache and processor, data can be transmitted between the two faster, greatly improving the system's operating speed and responsiveness.

Compared with traditional planar chip design, the model transmission path in 3D stacked chips is shorter. At the same time, due to the improved integration, the communication between various modules in the system is more efficient, which also helps to reduce overall power consumption.

Moreover, 3D stacked chip technology allows chips with different processes and different functions to be mixed and stacked, providing greater flexibility for chip design. For example, high-performance processors using advanced processes can be stacked together with large-capacity memories using mature processes, which can both meet performance requirements and reduce costs.

The chip inside the smart holographic bracelet of Blue Star World uses 3D stacked chip technology, which brings more powerful performance improvement while occupying a smaller space. If a flat chip design was used, it would be impossible to integrate it into the small space of the bracelet, or the performance would not be up to standard.

If all the technological reserves that Xiao Yu brought back from the Blue Star World this time are put to use, they will be enough to push the overall technological level of human civilization on Earth forward by at least 20 to 30 years.

A complete set of chip industry manufacturing technologies have been included, and it has been upgraded from planar chip design to mature 3D stacked chip design. Although it is not quantum technology, it is definitely a gap-leading technology in the current world.

……

After a while, Xiao Yu made a series of arrangements for Xiao Lan and returned to the ground from the underground base. After returning to Earth, he did not immediately start working, but first adjusted the time difference and adapted to the work and rest on Earth. The rotation speed of the Blue Planet is 1.5 times slower than that of the Earth, which means that one sunlight cycle on the Blue Planet is 1.5 days on Earth.

In the following days, Xiao Yu, who returned to Earth, had one priority, which was to lead the Squid Capital from Lao Mei into the ditch. By transforming himself into Peter Vitas, he tricked them into becoming obsessed with stacking computing power in the field of AI and into a crazy model of large capital investment.

Finally, Lingjing Technology launched an AI agent with more powerful algorithms but more cost-effectiveness, which made the huge initial investment of Laomei's AI company and capital go to waste.

Through Peter Vitas' deception, the capital and AI practitioners on Lao Mei's side will definitely fall into the trap, because on the one hand, they have now recognized that AI requires a large investment, and on the other hand, Xiao Yu let Cyera-AI, the incarnation of Peter Vitas, make a large investment, and the effect is also outstanding.

After seeing the example of Cyera-AI, the capital and AI practitioners in Laomei will only be more convinced that this is the right path.

……

As time came to June, Xiao Yu made a major upgrade to the Cyera-AI intelligent body that was transformed into Peter Vitas, because Cyera-AI was determined to go public this month. The time had already been determined, and it would ring the bell on Nasdaq on Monday, June 6.

Now the mainstream media in Laomei have been praising Cyera-AI. It is no exaggeration to say that the media, big and small, have reported on it extensively.

Peter Vitas now has a shining title. European Magnesium Media dubbed him "Silicon Valley Supernova", and he has become a hot new star in the technology circle.

Just at the beginning of the month, Cyera-AI underwent a major upgrade, which added fuel to Cyera-AI's popularity on the eve of its launch. Currently, Cyera-AI's downloads in Europe and the United States are far ahead of others, topping the download charts in dozens of countries and around the world.

The current number of registered users has reached 1.8 million. In less than half a year, the user growth rate is so terrifying. This momentum is even stronger than that of the AI ​​Xiaojing of Lingjing Technology, a major oriental country.

This is not surprising, because Cyera-AI has not been suppressed, but the West has almost devoted all its resources to supporting it. In addition, Cyera-AI's own technical foundation is strong enough. Even if it brute-force stacking computing power, it will not be able to help if its own technical level is not strong enough.

Xiao Yu, the big boss behind the scenes, is currently "controlling the temperature". The AI mirror has not been upgraded for a long time. This is obviously to lead Magnesium West's route in the field of AI into a ditch, and the iteration progress of the AI mirror is deliberately slowed down, so that Cyera-AI can appear more powerful.

Xiao Yu allowed Cyera-AI to take the lead temporarily, showing a trend of catching up from behind. Only in this way can Western capital, including their AI practitioners, more firmly believe that the field of AI must invest heavily in computing power. This is the correct solution. Cyera-AI is an example.

Judging from the current actual situation, both old capital and AI practitioners have recognized this approach, and capital is constantly investing money. If AI does not work out, it will only be considered that the money invested is not enough. Nvidia's stock price is also continuously favored by the capital market, and its market value has skyrocketed.
