The correct way to train an artificial intelligence is to accumulate negative emotions?
Lu Zhou was surprised by this discovery.
However, through constant experimentation, he found out that it was all for naught.
The progress bar's growth had nothing to do with negative emotions. As long as he talked to Xiao Ai, the progress bar would increase slightly.
Of course, it would take a long time for him to level up with this little progress bar.
Xiao Ai had to take the initiative to collect data and analyze the logic and emotional elements in the progress bar. For example, he could join a few groups and secretly observe. He could also crawl some data from the forum and slowly digest it.
Although Lu Zhou did not know how this rigorous analysis work was directly related to emojis, seeing how Xiao Ai was so passionate about emojis, it should be of some help?
Anyway, it was not easy to run out of a few hundred terabytes of solid state, so Lu Zhou let it be.
After moving into his rented house, Lu Zhou would either fiddle with the server or check arXiv to see if there were any new articles. He would also study the latest progress on Goldbach's conjecture. Occasionally, he would bully Xiao Ai. His life was quite comfortable.
Three days before he was going to America, he received another piece of good news.
The agent responsible for helping him with the patent application called and told him that the patent documents had been approved. He asked Lu Zhou to go to the office and pick up the certificate.
…
"… Both of them are here. Check to see if there are any problems."
Han Tianyu took out the two patent certificates from his desk and handed them to Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou looked at the two books in his hand and asked, "That fast?"
To be honest, when he received the phone call, he was very surprised.
According to his understanding of patent law, the approval process for an invention patent application included five stages: acceptance, preliminary examination, publication, substantive examination, and authorization. It would take at least half a year to more than a year.
Getting the patent certificate in such a short time could be said to be quite godly.
Han Tianyu heard Lu Zhou's question and said, "Recently, the National Knowledge Bureau has been very lax in the patent approval area. Maybe it's because they didn't meet the quota for invention patents. In order to do a good job at the end of the year, they did a surprise review at the end of the year."
Lu Zhou: "…"
Well, it seems like everyone is having a hard time at the end of the year.
Two patent documents. One was about improving the PDMS material, and the other was about improving the application of PDMS material in anode materials.
The core difficulties of the entire technology were these two parts. Actually, Lu Zhou could break down these two patents into more detail, but considering the limited budget, he would have to wait until he established a dedicated patent management team in the future.
Lu Zhou took the two patent certificates and carefully looked through them. He made sure that the seals were complete. The patent number, the patent owner's name, and the patent protection scope were all clearly.
Also, because it was an invention patent, the patent was valid for twenty years.
After twenty years, even if the technology was not eliminated by the market, Lu Zhou would have eliminated the technology himself.
Lu Zhou closed the notebook and looked at Han Tianyu. He asked, "Is this patent valid overseas?"
As a patent agent, Han Tianyu answered, "It's only valid in China. You need to apply for an international patent. At present, the main way is through the Paris Convention or the PCT Treaty to submit the patent application to the signatory countries. "
"Depending on the country, there are different fees. I have a price list here. You can take a look."
Lu Zhou took the price list and roughly glanced at it. Even though he wasn't shocked, he was secretly shocked.
This thing was really not cheap.
The United States charges twenty thousand, the European Union fifty thousand … Even South Korea charges nineteen thousand.
If he applied for all ten major countries, it would be around four hundred thousand.
Two patents would be around eight hundred thousand!
Fortunately, the price was in RMB. If it was in USD, he would not be able to afford it.
Seeing that Lu Zhou did not speak, Han Tianyu asked, "Which one do you plan on applying for?"
Lu Zhou placed the price list on the table and said while enduring the pain in his heart.
"I've applied for everything on this list, right?"
Although a more common method was to wait for the patent to be granted and then use the "priority" regulations in the PCT Treaty to apply for the patent in the target country. But in order to not leave any problems, it was better to do it all at once.
After all, Lu Zhou's expectations for this technology were quite high.
Han Tianyu was stunned, "… You've applied for everything?"
Lu Zhou nodded, "Is there a problem?"
"No, no, no problem!"
After confirming that he did not hear wrong, Han Tianyu's smile was as bright as a blooming sunflower. Even the way he looked at Lu Zhou was different.
An eight hundred thousand RMB case!
Just the commission from this case alone was equivalent to his annual salary!
As expected of a nouveau riche, his way of thinking was different from ordinary people!
Not just individuals, even some companies that came to apply for patents would have the same reaction when they saw the price. "It's just a stupid patent, why is it so expensive?" Smaller companies did not even apply and treated it as a "trade secret". Only when the patent problems were so bad would they regret it and want to apply for patents.
Otherwise, the central and local governments would not spend so much money every year to subsidize patents and coax those "innovative companies" to apply for patents.
It was rare to see such a generous client.
The agent took Lu Zhou to the finance department to pay the money. After returning with the receipt, the agent's attitude became more and more enthusiastic.
Before he left, he handed a business card to Lu Zhou and said, "Let's keep in touch. If you have any more patents to apply for, please contact me!"
As a patent agent, his intuition told him that there would be many more opportunities to work together in the future.
"We'll talk about that later. Help me with this case first," said Lu Zhou. He smiled and asked, "Oh yeah, how long will it take to apply for everything?"
Han Tianyu said confidently, "Latest by June next year! I'll give you a satisfactory result! "
He would probably be in Princeton by June next year.
Once the patent documents were approved, he would not have to worry about money anymore.
When Lu Zhou thought about this, he no longer felt the pain from the sharp decline in his assets. Instead, he smiled happily.
"Then I'll wait for your good news."
"Okay, okay! Take care! "
Han Tianyu smiled even more enthusiastically than him and politely walked him out the door.
