Tom knew that the quantum supercomputer he had built was far from perfect at this mont.
It was too large, had high energy consumption, generated excessive heat, and its computing power was not high. At the sa ti, it only achieved quantum advantage in areas such as AI training, data searching, and physical simulation. In many other aspects, its computing capabilities were still inferior to traditional electronic computers.
The so-called quantum advantage ans that if a quantum computer performs better than an electronic computer in a certain field, it can be said to have a quantum advantage in that field.
Clearly, quantum computers cannot exist independently—at least not at this stage.
They need to be combined with electronic computers to compensate for their shortcomings while retaining their advantages.
This was sothing Tom had known for a long ti. The Bluetoth Civilization’s quantum computer developnt path was also like this.
At this mont, Tom’s quantum computer technology had caught up with the Bluetoth Civilization, though the areas where quantum advantage had been achieved were still few.
But...
It’s enough for now!
Being enough for now is fine! Further improvents and refinents can be done later. At least for now, it can already undertake the tasks he hoped it could!
After the technology was finalized, Tom wasted no ti and imdiately began large-scale construction on various planets in the Altair System.
For the first batch, Tom planned to build ten thousand quantum-electronic combined supercomputers!
The AI training and computation, which Tom valued most, would be handled by the quantum computing modules. This would allow all the AIs under his command to achieve a huge performance boost. Other aspects could be handled by the 2-nanoter electronic computing modules. The combination of the two would increase overall performance by more than tenfold!
The quantum computer research, which consud the most ntal effort, was temporarily concluded, and a large amount of ntal energy was imdiately invested in construction and production.
In just a few months, ten thousand quantum-electronic supercomputer bases, which could be considered infrastructure, were completed.
Before this, Tom had already used the newly developed quantum developnt language to completely refactor the entire code of the Hestia AI.
At this mont, the Hestia AI, reborn as if undergoing a complete transformation, now possessed a "physical body" specifically designed and matched for it.
Under dedicated power lines, the giant quantum-electronic supercomputers began to operate.
In an instant, Tom truly felt the transformation of the Hestia AI.
In factories, various intelligent machines that previously required clones to monitor in real-ti and constantly make decisions to operate normally, now seed to possess their own intelligence. They began to cooperate autonomously, deciding what to do next without needing clones to input relevant commands, as if they truly had their own wisdom.
Even when encountering unexpected situations that had never occurred before, this intelligent system no longer simply reported the situation and waited for the clones to handle it. Instead, it learned to think and reason independently, finding solutions based on its existing theories and knowledge reserves.
For complex system engineering, such as the operation of an entire factory, the construction of a vast construction site, the optimization of overall power lines, and the docking, unloading, connection, cooperation, and coordination of tens of thousands of heavy transport spacecraft within the Altair System, the number of clones required significantly decreased. The Hestia AI alone could solve most problems.
At this mont, the Hestia AI no longer seed like an artificial intelligence, but truly like a life form full of wisdom and possessing self-awareness!
Of course, Tom knew that all of this was rely his illusion. Even if the Hestia AI’s capabilities increased a thousandfold, it would not be able to beco a truly strong artificial intelligence, nor could it truly possess its own wisdom.
Every decision it made, every calculation, was still based on the underlying mathematical computations, with clear and understandable computational logic.
Essentially, it was still just a program.
But its significant increase in intelligence was an undeniable fact.
And the increase in intelligence ant that it could handle more diverse and complex tasks, aning it could save him more ntal effort!
In Tom’s view, intelligent programs actually served as a multiplying effect for him.
If his original 1 billion clones had an industrial strength of 10, then with the previous Hestia AI based on electronic computers, his industrial strength was magnified 100 tis, reaching 1000.
And now, the investnt in quantum-electronic computers could cause the Hestia AI’s multiplying factor to skyrocket to ten thousand, or even more!
Compared to before, the re deploynt of quantum-electronic computers alone increased his overall industrial strength by more than tenfold!
Tom knew that this multiplying increase was actually true for any civilization in the universe.
The Human Civilization before was like this, and so was the Bluetoth Civilization.
The Bluetoth Civilization back then also experienced a rapid wave of developnt after the deploynt of quantum-electronic computers.
This in itself was not surprising.
However, Tom had a unique advantage in this model.
With the sa level of technology, the multiplying factor of industrial strength provided by the deploynt of quantum-electronic computers is fixed.
For example, if the quantum computer’s magnification factor is ten thousand at this mont, it’s ten thousand for Tom, and it’s also ten thousand for the Bluetoth Civilization.
But let’s not forget that Tom, due to factors such as no internal friction, zero-cost communication, and real-ti collaboration, inherently possessed an industrial strength foundation far exceeding that of ordinary civilizations.
Without considering the multiplying effect of quantum-electronic computers, if an ordinary Electroweak Civilization’s basic industrial strength is 10, Tom’s basic industrial strength can reach at least 100.
10 magnified by ten thousand tis is one hundred thousand, while 100 magnified by ten thousand tis is one million.
An ordinary Electroweak Civilization, after introducing quantum-electronic computers, would see an increase in industrial strength of ninety thousand, whereas Tom could achieve an increase of nine hundred thousand. With the sa technology and the sa magnification factor, Tom could achieve a larger increase.
At this mont, Tom’s maximum consciousness connection count had not increased at all, yet his industrial strength had inexplicably surged by more than ten tis.
Because the Hestia AI’s intelligence had improved, a clone, while expending the sa effort, could perform more than ten tis the amount of tasks, which naturally reflected this effect on the overall industrial strength.
At this mont, the massive construction task that had almost made Tom feel daunted no longer seed so out of reach.
"Then... let’s begin construction!
Within 25 years, build an interstellar migration fleet 20 tis the previous scale!
Afterward, take enough supplies, take all the large scientific devices, and continue to research technology while escaping!"
