But that was all it could do. Besides the text chat function, it couldn't do anything else.
It couldn't even mobilize the Geek Smart search engine to retrieve information from the internet, let alone have game generation capabilities.
And although it was smart, comparable to Baidu's ERNIE Bot or iFlytek Spark in 2024,
it was simply trash compared to the real third-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke, which had trillion parameters.
Finally, the most unbearable thing was that the open-source agreement hid many super pitfalls.
These super pitfalls meant that according to Geek Technology's open-source agreement, if these companies had any research results or code, Geek Technology could use them for free without compensation.
However, if Geek Technology had any research results, they could not use them for free and required Geek Technology to decide at its discretion.
This phenomenon of working hard on research and development only to benefit others made executives like Nvidia's Jensen Huang, Apple's Tim Cook, EA's Andrew Wilson, and Microsoft's Steve Ballmer feel like vomiting blood.
Of course, what made them vomit blood and feel depressed was not just this. Among them, Nvidia's Jensen Huang was the most uncomfortable.
Because with Geek Technology's semi-open-sourcing of the third-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke,
if various companies wanted to run a stripped-down version of the third-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke, they would definitely need corresponding hardware to run it.
Therefore, Geek Technology's Phoenix 1090 graphics card naturally became the first choice.
After all, the Phoenix 1090 graphics card had the world's leading computing power, reaching an astonishing TFLOPS.
This also led to the Phoenix 1090 graphics card being the most suitable hardware device for running the third-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke.
Finally, coupled with the fact that Geek Technology not only semi-open-sourced the third-generation artificial intelligence Xiao Ke but also semi-open-sourced the hardware architecture equipment,
Nvidia's Jensen Huang discovered to his dismay that Geek Technology's Phoenix 1090 graphics card was selling like crazy! In just a few days, Geek Technology's pre-sales of the Phoenix 1090 graphics card had exceeded 500,000 units!
It should be known that this was the most expensive Phoenix 1090 graphics card, and its price was very firm. It still hadn't dropped in price and was still selling for 6499 yuan.
At this time, Geek Technology received orders for 500,000 Phoenix 1090 graphics cards in just a few days, which meant a revenue of billion Huaxia币!
According to the current official exchange rate of , billion Huaxia币 was equivalent to Geek Technology's turnover reaching an astonishing billion US dollars in just a few days!
Although this billion US dollars was only the total turnover, outsiders didn't know what the actual profit was, but it should be no less than 30% at worst.
Based on the lowest estimated profit of 30%, it was equivalent to Geek Technology earning billion US dollars in just a few days.
Considering that Nvidia's current market value was less than 5 billion US dollars, how could this income not make Nvidia's CEO feel like vomiting blood?
Moreover, what made Nvidia's CEO even more uneasy was that this was just a few days of pre-sales, and there was almost no doubt that the Phoenix 1090 graphics card would sell even more in the future.
In addition, there was another phenomenon that made Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang feel even more depressed and like vomiting blood.
This phenomenon was that because there was a yield rate problem with the Phoenix graphics card chips, it was impossible for Geek Technology to deliver 500,000 Phoenix 1090 graphics cards in a short period.
Therefore, in order to solve the problem of insufficient computing power, many companies directly started a buying spree, purchasing or pre-ordering all mid-to-high-end Phoenix graphics cards.
This also allowed Geek Technology's pre-sale amount to exceed 10 billion US dollars, making them a huge profit.
It can be said that there was a good saying in the previous life.
Whether generative artificial intelligence can make money or be profitable, no one knows, but Nvidia is definitely making a killing, that's for sure.
And at this time, such a phenomenon also appeared in Geek Technology.
Whether those companies can make money or be profitable in the future, no one knows, but Geek Technology is really making a killing in advance by selling Phoenix graphics cards.
It can be said that just from this wave of Phoenix graphics card sales, the profits earned by Geek Technology through Phoenix graphics cards
have far exceeded the research and development costs of generative artificial intelligence technology, and also exceeded the total cost of building the Rongcheng Supercomputing Center and the affiliated data storage center.
In the future, Geek Technology's profits in artificial intelligence technology will purely be profitable.
Among them, the only regret was that the delivery of the graphics cards would take some time.
Even though Geek Technology had contacted TSMC and asked them to squeeze out the maximum production capacity to produce Phoenix graphics card chips for Geek Technology,
in reality, it would take at least three months to deliver all these Phoenix graphics card chips.
So, if Geek Technology wanted to earn this money, it would take at least three months, which had to be said was a regrettable fact.
Several days later, in the United States, Silicon Valley, in a certain commercial building.
Many well-known companies gathered here to hold a large-scale conference to determine the future development trajectory of artificial intelligence technology.
At this time, none of the people sitting here were simple. In addition to the previous top ten technology companies, there were also many new faces.
For example, Li Jianxi, president of Three Electronics Company, Kazuo Hirai, president of Sony Corporation, and Jeff Bezos, president of Amazon.
European industrial giants Siemens, Tesla, Toyota, EA, SAP, Bosch, Spotify, DeepMind...
In short, there were more than twenty well-known companies' presidents sitting in this conference room.
It can be said that if a bomb were dropped here, the negative events generated would be enough to shake the financial technology circle for several months, with far-reaching impact.
"The purpose of our meeting now is to discuss and decide whether to adopt Geek Technology's generative artificial intelligence technology
or to independently develop a brand-new generative artificial intelligence technology that is different from Geek Technology's."
In the conference room, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer looked around at the people present and said his words.
This Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer was not a simple person. He was one of the three giants in the early days of Microsoft's founding.
As for why he was not simple, the reason was that in 2024 in his previous life,
his personal assets reached 123 billion US dollars, ranking eighth in the world, and his asset valuation even surpassed Bill Gates!
And the reason for all this was because he never reduced his shares in Microsoft, which was completely opposite to Bill Gates' decision.
So, more than ten years later in 2024, his shares had far exceeded Bill Gates'.
Finally, after he resigned in 2014, he didn't have to do anything. He only managed the NBA team called the Clippers, but as a result, he had more than 100 billion US dollars in wealth.
This was a true winner in life, purely winning while lying down.
Therefore, the saying "Choice is more important than effort" is most suitable for Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.
