After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 131: The Academic Tycoons Either Get Promoted or Leave and Young Associate Researcher Wei Shujie
You know, traditional AI capabilities are very limited, but even with the assistance of such very limited AI capabilities, related research has produced fruitful results. Even world-leading giants such as NVIDIA and Intel are specifically researching related content to improve productivity.

It can be said that this direction has both cutting-edge results and practical transformation benefits.

Moreover, Xiaosha's ability is far superior to that of traditional AI. If this ability is integrated into the design of microelectronic architecture, as long as there is a result, it will be world-class, and it doesn't matter who owns the intellectual property rights.

They use the school's money to do scientific research, and the intellectual property rights do not belong to them, but as long as they can participate, it will be of great benefit to their further development.

However, Xiaosha currently only has the finished product, and the finished product does not have the relevant capabilities open. No one knows the principle of Xiaosha's model, and there is no way to train it by oneself.

If you want to use it, you can only rely on Baiju Technology.

Now that the opportunity is in front of them, naturally no one would give it up.

Chen Qiucheng of course knew what they were thinking, and said with a smile:
"According to Baiju Technology, Xiaosha is only a language model and has no other capabilities. This project is not about using AI to assist in microelectronic chip design. Instead, the founder of Baiju Technology wants to experiment with a hypothesis of his own, but it is not as easy to produce results as you think..."

"Principal Chen, just tell us how to select. What are the requirements? Do you want to look at the papers, the results, or something else?" Seeing that Chen Qiuchen wanted to continue talking, one of them stopped Chen Qiuchen and asked.

The other people had the same idea and stared at Chen Qiuchen at the same time, without any intention of giving in.

Regardless of whether there are any results or not, Baiju Technology is on the verge of taking off. Even if there are no results this time, as long as it has a relationship with Hao Cheng, it will be a sure win.

"You guys," Chen Qiucheng shook his head and said with a smile, "Past qualifications and achievements are useless at Baiju Technology. They have their own evaluation system. You should be aware of this, right?"

"Yeah!" Several people nodded at the same time. They also used Xiaosha. Of course, they had heard about Xiaosha's evaluation of talents. Some professors even used it to screen students, so they naturally knew it clearly.

"That's easy." Chen Qiushi said, "The school attaches great importance to you. We will first give you the test-related libraries. If there are any of you who meet the standards and the fit is more than 85%, then the person with the highest fit will take over the project.

"If no one reaches 85%, then I'm sorry, the next opportunity will be given to all professors in the school. Okay, you can start."

It was not Chen Qiushi's idea to do this, but the principal's.

These people all have factions behind them, and their reputations are average. Chen Qiushi actually doesn't care about them.

But behind the academic cliques are resources, and sometimes they need to give face.

On the other hand, Chen Qiushi didn't think these people could meet the requirements.

What are the requirements of Baiju Technology? This project does not clearly state, but just this morning, they released a recruitment information that stated: Priority will be given to those who are flexible in thinking, not bound by existing logic and frameworks, and have unconventional thinking.

This person and that one should actually be doing the same thing. These people, haha, are all stubborn. It would be strange if they could pass!

And it was not beyond Chen Qiushi's expectations that the highest degree of compatibility among the few people was only 43.

"I'm sorry, professors. I will post the notice on the intranet later." Chen Qiushi showed a very regretful smile, but in fact he was smiling happily in his heart.

……

Wei Shujie, 32 years old, is an associate researcher and master's supervisor at the University of Information Science and Technology.

Wei Shujie can be said to be a loyal customer of the University of Information Science and Technology. He has been here for 15 years.

He was admitted as an undergraduate, then went straight to a doctoral program, and stayed on as an assistant researcher after graduation. He originally thought it would be a very stable scientific research environment, which he liked.

However, the three-year appointment system and the promotion-or-leave policy made him feel suffocated.

In the first three years, he was successfully promoted to associate researcher and master's supervisor.

But three years is not enough to supervise a class of graduate students. You have to produce a fixed number of results and meet the requirements for upgrading to researcher. If you can't do that, you'll be fired.

Even if such thinking can produce results, what results will they be?
Crazy spamming? Exploiting students? Filling up the numbers?

Wei Shujie also knows that scientific researchers need pressure and need to have evaluation standards, but he cannot agree with such evaluation standards. Producing a bunch of papers may seem to have achieved results, but in fact nothing has been improved.

He didn't want to do this anymore. Even if he went out to find a business and do something serious, it would be more promising than writing papers in a university.

Coincidentally, he also saw the recruitment information posted by Baiju Technology today: chip design engineer.

He also did Xiaosha's evaluation, and the fit was 95.

"Do you want to go?" Wei Shujie from Baiju Technology liked him and even admired him, but he was an enviable associate professor at a university in the eyes of others, and he would be proud to talk about it in his hometown.

At this time, Wei Shujie was extremely conflicted. He wanted to leave, but he couldn't make up his mind.

"Xiaosha, how do you think I should choose?"

[Follow your heart.] Xiaosha only gave him four words of advice.

"Follow your heart?" The four words "Follow your heart" brought back Wei Shujie's memories from long ago. Why did he choose the major of integrated circuit design and integrated systems at that time?

"Oh, yes, I want to be the Intel of China!" Thinking of this, Wei Shujie laughed to himself: "What have I done in the past few years!"

"Buzz buzz buzz~buzz buzz buzz~" Wei Shujie was just sighing with emotion when he suddenly received a message from a colleague: "Shujie, Baiju Technology and our school have determined a research project and are selecting a person in charge. You can try it too."

"How come it's not my turn?" Wei Shujie said speechlessly. This sounded like a highly sought-after project, and it was not my turn as an associate researcher?
"If it was our school that made the decision, it would definitely not be our turn, but this is Baiju Technology, they have their own evaluation system. If you take the test, as long as your score is high, you will definitely be a candidate."

"I just tested it, the match is only 60, and the professional ability is 75, there is no chance.

My colleague explained the situation and directly sent me the link to the intranet notification.

Wei Shujie opened it and saw that it was almost exactly the same as the test he had just done, with a fit degree of 95 and a professionalism of 89.

"Oh my god, you!" After seeing the screenshot sent by Wei Shujie, the colleague was shocked: "With your two points, there is no doubt that Baiju Technology will recognize this thing, and the school will definitely not object!"

Wei Shujie was just worried, and even thought about resigning and going directly to Baiju Technology, but he just couldn't make up his mind.

If there is such an opportunity, it would be perfect!
