Technology dominance starts with learning machines

Chapter 8 Next Steps: Basic Human-Computer Interaction
"Old Four, I heard from them that you rejected Professor Wang's offer to continue your studies. What were you thinking?"

"If it's because you're short of money, you don't have to worry. The money you get from graduate school every year is enough to support yourself."

"Yes. Fourth Brother, Professor Wang is famous for being generous with subsidies. There are so many people who want to go, but Professor Wang doesn't want them."

In the dormitory group, several sons were trying their best to persuade Li Pingan to continue his postgraduate studies.

They thought that even if they did not choose Professor Wang’s admission to graduate school, they could apply to other teachers in the school.

After all, Mizuki University's computer science and technology major is extremely competitive among universities across the country.

In addition, more than half of the students in the class will choose to study abroad. It can be said that students in their major, as long as they are not particularly bad, can basically pass the postgraduate entrance examination.

The concern of his roommates was like a warm current, slowly flowing into Li Ping'an's heart.

Whether in college or high school, the friendship in boys' dormitories is generally pure.

Yes, it is just the relationship between father and son.

"Thank you, my sons. I have carefully considered not taking the postgraduate entrance examination for the time being."

Li Pingan replied half-jokingly in the group, trying to ease the slightly heavy atmosphere with this light-hearted tone.

"I am planning to start my own business. When you graduate from graduate school, you can come to work in my company."

There was a hint of confidence and longing in his words.

However, it was obvious that none of his roommates took his words seriously.

In their opinion, it is not so easy to start a business and succeed.

Especially for the major they study, they often invest millions of dollars and work hard to develop a software, but if no users pay for it in the end, everything will be in vain, and all the efforts and investment will be just a waste of money.

It's a pure waste of manpower and financial resources.

Furthermore, they all had a basic understanding of Li Ping'an's family's financial situation.

With such a family background, where did he get so much money to support his entrepreneurship?
There is no doubt that in their eyes, Li Ping'an's words were more to cover up his embarrassing situation.

"Fourth brother, don't rush to make a decision. It's still early and there's still time." A roommate advised earnestly.

"Yes, yes." The other roommates also echoed.

"Don't worry, don't worry, don't you still worry about me?"

Li Pingan responded again, trying to persuade his roommates not to worry too much.

Early in the morning, Li Pingan woke up slowly from his sleep, slowly opened his eyes, and subconsciously looked out the window.

I saw a silvery white world outside the window, with endless white snow, like a huge white velvet carpet spreading to the sky.

The light became particularly strong under the reflection of the snow, and it passed through the window like a beam of sharp arrows and shot straight into Li Ping'an's pupils, making him squint slightly, feeling that the light was a little dazzling.

At this moment, Li Pingan, lying in the warm quilt, was tightly wrapped in the warmth and comfort, and had no intention of getting up at all.

He just lay there quietly, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, his thoughts wandering wildly in his mind. He seemed to be immersed in a lazy space isolated from the world, and he fell into a daze unconsciously.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but a crisp knock on the door suddenly broke the silence.

dong dong dong~
In this family, Li Ping'an knew that no one except his sister would come knocking on the door.

"What's the matter?" Li Pingan asked weakly.

"Brother, I'm hungry!" A slightly coquettish voice came from the other side of the door.

"It's almost nine o'clock, why haven't you gotten up yet? I still have to do my homework later."

Listening to his sister's coquettish voice, Li Pingan slowly reached out from the bed, fumbled to pick up the phone on the pillow, and glanced at the time displayed on the screen. It was 8:25. He couldn't help but secretly complain: It's almost 9 o'clock.

"Got it, I'll get up right away."

Li Pingan responded helplessly, then began to move reluctantly to greet a new day.

Half an hour later, Li Ya stood quietly at the door, holding a bowl of steaming noodles steadily in both hands, slurping them with relish.

She was wearing thick cotton pajamas and a pair of woolen shoes, and she looked warm and cute.

It's just that the hair looks a little messy.

She tilted her head slightly, gazing at the sky where light snow was still falling, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Hearing the slight noise coming from behind, Li Ya said softly: "It would be great if it snows again tomorrow, the heavier the better."

At this time, Li Pingan came from behind with a small bowl of noodles in his hand.

When he heard his sister's words, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, and he asked, "What?"

"It's snowing heavily, so we don't have to go to school. The teacher will definitely let us study at home." Li Ya answered as a matter of course.

After hearing this, Li Pingan couldn't help laughing out loud, "Are you stupid? If you don't go to school, you don't have to go to class? What are you thinking?"

“You still have to take online classes.”

"And, if nothing unexpected happens, there is a lot more homework after class than in school."

Li Pingan said this while taking a sip of noodles.

"Why?" Li Ya asked puzzled.

why?
Li Pingan calmly swallowed the noodles in his mouth and said slowly:

"Because all teachers will assume that other teachers don't assign homework."

"Is it okay to give more homework?"

After hearing this, Li Ya was stunned.

Thinking about it carefully, what my brother said seems to be true.

Apart from anything else, every time we have a holiday, the longer it is, the more homework the teacher assigns us, it becomes like a mountain and there is simply no way we can finish it all.

After a moment of silence, Li Ya's tone became gloomy, and she said helplessly: "Then let me return to school as usual."

After breakfast, Li Ya returned to her warm room with satisfaction, closed the door gently, and began to do her homework seriously.

Li Ping'an also turned around and went back to his room. He had a clear plan and goal in his mind and was unwilling to waste even a moment of time.

As for the dishes and chopsticks used in the pot, he chose to leave them until noon to wash them together.

Although the purchased data storage equipment has not arrived yet, Li Pingan did not stop there.

He sat in front of the computer, his eyes focused and determined, feeding the various rich information originally stored in the computer to the artificial intelligence data collection and preprocessing module one by one.

Afterwards, I continued to develop and learn the next basic human-computer interaction module.

During this process, due to the large amount of data that needs to be processed, the CPU and GPU of the gaming laptop in Li Pingan's hand are both operating at high power.

Even in the middle of winter, when the temperature inside the house is low, the fan of the computer radiator is still whirring and spinning at high speed.
