There were still three hours before the pre-sale of the elven maid. It was nine o 'clock in the morning.
On the official forum, the discussion about whether the elven maid could be qualified for housekeeping services, or whether it would steal jobs from the service industry, became heated again as users woke up.
Compared to last night, at least 15% of users said that they were working in the service industry or had worked in the service industry before.
These users were all stakeholders. They were both looking forward to and worried about Monster Industries' elven maid products.
As the pre-sale time approached, not only were there discussions on the official forum, but almost all communities and websites were discussing this topic.
The media was bombarded with news all day.
The introduction of the elven maid's functions also revolved around the theme of housekeeping services.
Of course, the public was worried about this.
At around ten o 'clock in the morning, some netizens who participated in the discussion suddenly found that the name "Lu Baimin" gradually appeared in new discussion posts.
And the topic of discussion gradually changed from worrying about their jobs being stolen to a very deep social and scientific development perspective.
Occasionally, some very impressive sounding nouns popped out.
This phenomenon of a gradual change in style was happening in many forums.
Some users who didn't like to pay attention to the news on the Internet were a little confused. What was wrong with them?
Why did their knowledge and scientific standards improve as they chatted? They were all like the experts on TV and in videos.
Who was Lu Baimin?
"I think Lu Baimin is right. Whether or not the elven maid will steal jobs from the service industry, this step has to be taken. Fortunately, our Hua Xia took this step first."
"A program built in silicon or a crystal, no matter how smart it is, can't have consciousness. Robots are just tools, and we are the users. "
"It's inevitable that the service industry will be affected. But compared to that little impact, the emergence of the elven maid is no less than the invention of nuclear energy."
"I agree with Lu Baimin's point of view. Things are constantly changing and developing. Development is the process of new things replacing old things. Without development, there is no progress. "
"Thank you to Monster Industries for allowing me to see the birth of a real practical robot in my lifetime."
"At first, I wondered if the elven maid was a technological gimmick. But after watching the video, I realized the greatness of Monster Industries. "
"I finally understand the slogan from the Monster Industries, 'We Have Surpassed Ourselves.' It's such a simple phrase, but it's filled with the hard work of countless researchers."
"I feel like crying. Not to mention 120,000, I'd buy it for 240,000. It's going to explode."
"One hundred and twenty thousand, buy out!"
The gradually changing content of the discussion made many netizens curious and puzzled. They searched for the three words "Lu Baimin".
Then, he found this popular science video that had been uploaded an hour ago and was currently being reposted by many video websites.
Lu Baimin, who had worked hard all night, finally finished the video about the elven maid.
The duration was seven and a half minutes.
This was the longest of Lu Baimin's popular science videos.
At the beginning of the video, Lu Baimin didn't beat around the bush. He directly mentioned that he had received a large number of messages from fans asking him to talk about the Elf Maid product.
In addition, he also paid a lot of attention to the elven maid, so he would definitely place an order when the pre-sale started.
Since the fans were curious, he would explain it to everyone. From his perspective, what exactly was the elven maid and what impact would it have on society?
But before he got to the point, Lu Baimin first played a video for everyone to understand how many researchers and researchers from Monster Industries had condensed behind the seemingly simple slogan of the elven maid.
A video was inserted. The video was a news interview, and the subject of the interview was the young president of Monster Industries that everyone was very familiar with.
In the video, the young president replied to the interviewer with a somewhat longing and somewhat unwilling tone, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. At present, we don't have this kind of technology."
"This is not a robot with an intelligent program and recognition program. In fact, with current technology, an intelligent robot that can satisfy people doesn't exist at all."
Lu Baimin introduced this interview picture from shortly after the Guardian Family Robot product launch of the Monster Industry.
The Guardian Family Robot was a product that many people had never heard of or seen before.
Its sales were also at the bottom of all Monster Industries' products.
However, its similar type of explorer unexpectedly became the standard of the dangerous industry and the emergency rescue industry.
The Guardian Home Robot was a remote-controlled robot launched by Monster Industries. It had no intelligence and had to be operated by the user through a wearable remote control.
The only thing that was advanced about it was that its two mechanical arms were unusually flexible.
Other than that, it was no different from a remote-controlled car. It relied on wheels to move, and through a panoramic camera, users wearing VR glasses could remotely observe the environment and remotely operate it.
At that time, a reporter interviewed Mr. Ye and asked him if this product could patrol by itself or protect users.
Mr. Ye's answer at that time was a little helpless, but also a little longing.
He was helpless because he couldn't see any practical artificial intelligence program at that time. Monster Industries didn't have it, and neither did the outside world.
He envisioned that in the future, this kind of technology would appear and benefit mankind.
Three years later.
Monster Industries did it.
Perhaps Mr. Ye hadn't forgotten his original longing and dreams.
That was why the Elven Maid's promotional slogan only had one sentence: "We have surpassed ourselves and made people's lives more interesting."
It seemed like a simple sentence, but in the past three years, Mr. Ye and countless technicians from Monster Industries had worked hard day and night.
In three years, the product that no one cared about and could only run around on wheels had become the Elven Maid of today.
It was a cross-era technology product that was not the same from the inside out.
Lu Baimin also told the audience a detail that everyone had overlooked.
Just yesterday, when the Elven Maid's pre-sale page was released, the Guardian Home Robot that had always existed on Monster Industries' product shelves disappeared.
This was the first product from Monster Industries to be withdrawn from the market. Before it disappeared, the price of that product was also 120,000 yuan.
At the same price, there seemed to be a century of technological difference between the two.
Lu Baimin started with the hardware technology of the Elven Maid.
As for whether Monster Industries had the technology to create a robot that was as flexible as humans, the news media that questioned this could change the topic.
The answer was, of course, yes.
From the moment Monster Industries mass-produced the first Primordial Spirit Hand, they had this technology.
The bionic muscles that were woven from thermal nerve units completely simulated the workings of human muscles in a mechanical way.
If they didn't consider the cost and used more detailed thermal nerve units, the Elven Maid could completely surpass humans in terms of reaction speed and strength.
There was a limit to the movement that human muscle fibers could carry. Scientists calculated based on the composition of human muscle fibers and came up with a limit of 9.29 seconds for 100 meters.
But a robot made of thermal nerve units could easily break this record.
With the thermal nerve units and the lightweight alloy bionic skeleton, the Elven Maid's hardware was perfect beyond that of humans.
Therefore, Monster Industries only needed to solve the Elven Maid's dynamic balance problem from the software aspect.
Was this balance problem easy to solve?
Lu Baimin told the audience that if it was a robot powered by a traditional servo motor and bearings, it would be almost impossible to solve.
But it wasn't difficult to switch to the Elven Maid powered by thermal nerve units. It only needed to be done countless simulation training with a supercomputer.
Humans could maintain balance during movement because they had a large number of large and small muscles in their legs and waist. During movement, the brain constantly mobilized all the muscles to contract or stretch to ensure balance.
Traditional mechanical robots only had a few dozen servo motors on their bodies. If they wanted to perform complex movements, the only result was that they would fall to the ground.
But the Elven Maid used the same muscle principle as humans. It could also do what human muscles could do.
So, the Elven Maid only needed to use a specific angular movement detection device to find the balance system that was most suitable for her in countless simulation training.
Monster Industries gave the Elven Maid a body that was as flexible as a human's. What was left was the issue of intelligence that users were most concerned about.
