chanical Engineering Laboratory.
The robot Big White, salvaged from the water by the Mist City police departnt, was delivered here at Ding Yue’s instruction.
In fact, as soon as Big White had been delivered to Mist City Arts and Science University by the police departnt, Ding Yue had already asked the students from the chanical Engineering Departnt to go "welco" it.
Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei could be said to be the creators of Big White’s body, practically its "fathers." When they learned that Big White had saved a bus on the bridge, they couldn’t have been happier.
But when they learned of Big White’s damage, they were deeply saddened as well.
Whether Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei, or other chanical Engineering students involved in the creation of Big White’s chanical body, they all had a deep emotional attachnt to Big White.
"Principal Ding."
At the laboratory entrance, Tong Yihang approached Principal Ding to describe Big White’s damage, "The chanical joints are pretty much all damaged to varying degrees due to the excessive force they endured. The carbon fiber skeleton is particularly severely damaged. Furthermore, after being damaged, it fell into the river, causing the circuit board to be virtually paralyzed. However, thankfully, our chip is protected by a waterproof layer, and it should be undamaged."
After listening to Tong Yihang’s introduction, Ding Yue nodded slightly.
Then, she turned to look at her artificial intelligence robot Big White lying on the experintal table, appearing to be at death’s door, mainly because the polyvinyl alcohol fibers were damaged and now it seed very deflated.
"And the chip?"
At this mont, Xu Bin asked anxiously.
After all, Big White’s artificial intelligence chip was his own handiwork; who else would care about it but him?
If the chip were also damaged, that would truly be a pity.
That chip was the first one in Mist City Arts and Science University to use gallium nitride semiconductor material technology, and it was specially customized, making it very costly.
What mattered most to Xu Bin, like Ding Yue, wasn’t the cost of the chip, but the fact that the chip held all of Big White’s ’mories.’
Instead of calling them mories, it would be more accurate to say ’data.’
All of Big White’s data were inside that chip. Without it, it would an the loss of the artificial intelligence robot Big White, that had been trained through countless pieces of human world knowledge and behavior.
"We haven’t touched the chip; it’s still inside."
Tong Yihang replied.
After Big White was brought in, Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei imdiately examined it, but they didn’t remove the chip.
Upon hearing this, Xu Bin stepped forward and personally opened Big White’s chip slot.
The chip slot is waterproof and even heat-resistant, as the chip is just too important.
After Xu Bin carefully examined the chip he had removed, a joyful smile appeared on his face, and he turned to Ding Yue and said, "Principal Ding, the chip is intact."
"That’s great."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yue was also overjoyed.
An intact chip ant that Big White was not in serious trouble. The body could be rebuilt, but the artificial intelligence and thinking logic within the chip were not easily reproduced.
It was the product of the daily training Ding Yue and secretary Wen Ruohan had personally conducted in the routines of daily life, having spent a long ti with such a cute and endearing robot, Ding Yue certainly had developed an emotional bond with it.
Secretary Wen Ruohan felt the sa.
When she heard from Director Xu Bin that the chip was fine, Wen Ruohan also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this mont, Director Xiao Wenxing, who was standing to the side, asked curiously, "Principal Ding, so if Big White is damaged but the chip is fine, there’s no issue?"
Not being very knowledgeable about the principles of artificial intelligence robots, Director Xiao inquired from Principal Ding.
"Yes, Director Xiao,"
Ding Yue nodded and answered, "This chip is Big White’s core because, as an artificial intelligence robot, the chip essentially serves as its brain."
After hearing Principal Ding’s explanation, Director Xiao Wenxing also understood and said thoughtfully, "Then Big White’s body can be rebuilt."
"Correct."
That was the intent.
"Principal Ding, your robot Big White is quite popular and beloved in the country; I rember your university released the dical health robot Big White, right? The one you just ntioned is the artificial intelligence Big White?"
Principal Fu looked at Big White for a while, then turned to Ding Yue and asked curiously, "Because our Mist City University of Technology also has an artificial intelligence robot project."
"Yes."
Ding Yue smiled and nodded, "Principal Fu, this particular unit was custom-built for personally by the chanical Engineering and Computer Science Departnts of our Mist City Arts and Science University. Its cost is very high."
"Oh?" Principal Fu continued to inquire curiously, "How much does a Big White like this one cost?"
"At least over a million."
Ding Yue responded.
Both Principal Fu and Director Xiao Wenxing were stunned when they heard the cost, marveling internally at the extent of advanced technology being used.
In fact, Ding Yue was understating the cost at a million.
Even just the chip of Big White cost over a million, and that’s why Big White was Ding Yue’s personal robot and could not be comrcialized—because of such high costs, how could it be comrcialized?
