Technology dominance starts with learning machines

Chapter 12: Tamagotchi?

After returning home, Li Ya put her schoolbag aside and immediately started to prepare a fire.

I'm so cold that my nose is running, and getting rid of the cold is the top priority at the moment.

She skillfully filled the basin with charcoal, and after lighting it, she picked up the hair dryer, which blew strong wind towards the charcoal pile with a whirring sound.

After a short while, all the lifeless charcoal fires were ignited, gradually turning bright red and releasing rolling heat waves.

At this time, Li Pingan, who walked into the kitchen from the back door, happened to witness this scene.

When he saw his sister blowing the charcoal fire with a hair dryer, there was no surprise on his face. After all, he often did this himself.

"Don't you like air conditioning?" Li Ping'an asked with a hint of sarcasm.

Upon hearing this, Li Ya stopped what she was doing, put away the hair dryer, and rolled her eyes playfully.

He responded: "This damn weather, it's several degrees below zero, and the broken air conditioner has to defrost after running for a few times.

The wind was not warm at all, it was almost useless.

The charcoal fire is more solid and makes grilling more exciting."

After hearing this, Li Pingan shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he understood.

A 1.5-horsepower air conditioner at this level of energy consumption may be adequate for cooling and is also relatively energy-efficient.

However, once the outdoor temperature drops below zero, the heating function becomes extremely weak.

No matter which brand of air conditioner you use, it is difficult to avoid this embarrassment.

If it is replaced with a five-level energy consumption air conditioner with no power limit, also 1.5 horsepower, the heating effect will be completely different.

It can warm up the whole room.

It's just...

It's a bit costly.

It is said that the north is colder than the south and the temperature is lower, but in the north, there is no air conditioning at all in winter and everything is heated.

When we were in the school dormitory, most people wore short sleeves.

I only arm myself fully when I go out.

Li Ping'an brought a chair from the living room, sat down next to the charcoal brazier, and warmed himself by the fire comfortably.

Feeling the warmth brought by the charcoal fire, Li Pingan asked, "Did the teacher assign a lot of homework during the winter vacation?"

Without waiting for his sister to answer, Li Pingan paused for a moment and continued with great earnestness:
“As your older brother, I won’t force you to study hard, nor will I set rigid targets for you to get excellent scores in the middle school entrance exam or even the college entrance exam, but you must at least make an effort.

Don’t wait until one day in the future to look back on the past and regret your past negligence. "

"If you encounter any questions during the learning process, you can always ask me."

At this point, Li Pingan was silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words, and then he slowly said:

"Of course, I also hope you can understand that being happy is the most important part of life."

"When it comes to learning, just do your best. The key is to participate and enjoy the process."

Then, he changed the subject, his eyes revealing concern and determination: "Also, if someone bullies you at school, don't be afraid, be sure to call me immediately."

"I'll make the decision for you."

Li Pingan knows that bullying is unavoidable on campus. Especially now that the Internet is well developed, students mature earlier and similar reports can often be seen online.

Worried that his sister would choose to endure in silence in order to keep the peace, Li Pingan said bluntly:
"Don't look at me as your brother. I look ordinary on weekdays, but I study at Shuimu University, and few of my friends are simple. I can still support you."

Li Ya didn't care about it. She waved her hand lightly and said playfully:

"Don't worry, don't you know what kind of person I am, your sister? I have so many sisters around me, who would have nothing better to do than bully me?"

"It's good enough if we don't bully others."

"Ah That's good."

Seeing his sister so confident and free and easy, Li Ping'an's worries were slightly relieved. He stopped talking and just quietly accompanied his sister by the fire, enjoying this warm time.

With nothing to do, Li Ping'an was bored, so he just played with his mobile phone leisurely like his sister.

His fingers slid lightly across the screen, and short videos passed by his eyes one by one like flowing water, watching them quickly.

At the same time, his mind was like a high-speed precision machine, constantly thinking about how to realize monetization with the artificial intelligence technology in his hands.

Although money is not everything and many problems cannot be solved by money, it is absolutely impossible to live without money.

For him and his sister at this stage, making money is the top priority!
After thinking hard for a long time, Li Pingan, who couldn't think of any selling points for artificial intelligence, subconsciously turned his gaze to his sister beside him.

I look forward to getting a spark of inspiration from her innocent thinking.

"Li Ya." Li Pingan called softly.

"Ah? What's wrong." Li Ya heard the voice, stopped what she was doing, raised her head with a puzzled look on her face, and looked at her brother with clear eyes, which were full of confusion.

“If there is a software that can interact like a real person, what kind of application do you think it will be most popular with the public?”

Li Pingan stared at his sister with burning eyes, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Interaction? Doesn't it just mean chatting?" Li Ya blinked and responded without thinking.

"Yes!" Li Pingan nodded quickly in affirmation.

Li Ya barely paused before answering, "Of course it's a pet."

Her eyes sparkled with excitement and anticipation. "A pet that can chat is so cool and interesting just thinking about it!"

“It would be even better if you could customize your pet’s look the way you want it.”

"pet?"

Li Pingan was slightly stunned. Obviously, his sister's answer was beyond his expectation.

He had never imagined that artificial intelligence could be combined with the concept of pets.

What he was thinking about were the more cutting-edge applications of artificial intelligence technology!
His sister's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, which instantly caused ripples in Li Ping'an's heart. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought, concentrating on thinking about the feasibility of the idea of electronic pets.

In fact, compared to girls, to some extent, most boys tend to find it more difficult to resist the charm of various cute things.

"Virtual electronic pet..." Li Ping'an muttered to himself, chewing these words over and over again in his mouth.

My thoughts were running wild in my mind, trying to outline the appearance of a virtual pet and the blueprint for its future development.

Seeing that her brother was lost in thought and muttering to himself, Li Ya obediently did not disturb him. She just sat quietly by his side, waiting for him to come back to his senses.
