579 Polite and Embarrassed Smile
At the scene, a good press conference made the atmosphere extremely tense.
Really, many people may have never experienced such a press conference. Everyone held their breath and focused on Tim Cook.
This directly caused this person to feel uneasy when he stood on the stage again.
Of course, the reason why the atmosphere is so tense at this time is that this is another event that can be recorded in history. His next impression of a software product may directly affect the decline of a global industry.
Moreover, this is a relatively high-end industry that gathers countless smart people.
Liberal arts occupy memory and immediately occupy CPU, while high-level programmers design the CPU.
Is such an important industry really going to be replaced by machines? Tim Cook’s hands were shaking when he looked at his products.
At this moment, he felt that he was very important, but he never thought that one day, his and Apple's products might go down in history because of other companies' products.
Yes, if the profession of programmers disappears today, this will definitely be a day that can be recorded in history, used to commemorate a profession that has existed in this world for no more than a hundred years. It was an extremely important profession, but it died directly.
Tim Cook first raised his head and glanced at the silent audience, as if to confirm that everyone was indeed still there, and then turned his attention to the three latest Apple products neatly placed on the display stand.
This is probably a disguised form of advertising for Apple, right?
Tim Cook thought to himself with some self-deprecation.
Of course, he knew very well that such a good thing would be Apple's turn, not Samsung or other Chinese domestic companies. This was probably because the organizers considered that if they chose domestic companies to do this project, they might be questioned by the outside world.
I found a good trustee, but he had no such suspicion.
Yes, the relationship between Yuxin Technology and Apple is definitely not good enough to specifically advertise Apple products at the press conference, but he had to go on stage to accept this invitation. Thinking about it makes him feel depressed.
He is probably the least impressive CEO in Apple’s history, right?
As expected, Steve Jobs's class was not so easy to accept.
But thinking about the joke Mr. Stephen from Intel made by advertising a rival product on a Chinese show, Tim Cook felt much better. Sure enough, people still need to compare to find a sense of superiority and happiness, even in the industry
The boss is no different.
After taking a deep breath, the first thing Tim Cook picked up was Apple's pillar product, the latest Iphone 12 mobile phone.
Now this is really where Apple's profits come from.
You must know that Apple once had more software engineers than hardware engineers, relying on the huge profits brought by the Apple Store.
But now the entire world's commercial Internet system is almost dominated by the Xin system. The direct result is that Apple's tax revenue can no longer be raised, and its software revenue has dropped sharply. If the mobile phone loses, it will be bitten by God.
The apple is really going to rot in his hands.
Putting aside his complicated emotions, Tim Cook turned his attention to this brand new mobile phone.
The large screen on the rostrum also changed after he picked up his phone. Half of the camera was focused on Tim Cook's live broadcast, and the other half was split into the operating interface after the phone woke up.
Currently, the mobile phone has a pure Xin system, which has been activated, but the steps of password setting and brainwave binding have been skipped.
The main interface of the mobile phone is also very clean. The mobile phone settings, membership mall and Xin system's three-piece set of the best software National Idol, minimalist programming and entertainment translator are naturally necessary.
In addition, an installer named Deep Switch has been added.
The name of this software seems to be in line with Wang Yufei's naming style, which is simple and crude.
Tim Cook glanced sideways at Wang Yufei again, and then clicked on the software with his finger.
Decent software instructions.
Let me tell you that this is a fool-proof installation software that only requires the operator to press down step by step.
Tim Cook nodded imperceptibly, then clicked to confirm the agreement, and started step by step by clicking Next.
The phone restarted directly, although the Apple CEO found that the startup interface of his phone had been tampered with a scene of a beautiful girl chewing an apple that fit the temperament of SIRS. The beautiful girl simply outlined with lines picked up the apple on the table and gnawed it.
Take a bite and put it back on the plate, perfectly restoring the missing piece of apple.
Tim Cook was shocked and speechless, but there was a gasp from the first few rows of the audience, and then everyone collectively began to look at each other with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
The big guys in the front row react quickly and think a lot.
If, yes, let’s just assume that this software was indeed edited by a computer in just twenty minutes, then what does this mean? It means that the quantum computer released by Yuxin Technology today seems to be not only a strong artificial intelligence,
Even evolved his own personality?
For example, do you like to be funny? Can you still tease me?
Otherwise, how can we explain that it actually produces such a startup installation animation?
If artificial intelligence can not only program but also has a personality...
Sundar Pichai was stunned. He didn't even realize that his hands were trembling. This is definitely the technology that Google dreams of. If this kind of quantum computer is developed by Google first, what does it mean?
This means that Google can be great for at least another two centuries, or even continue to be great.
The reason is simple. Science is not the fantasy of writers. Any machine must abide by the basic logic set by the program, and this of course includes artificial intelligence.
But the scary thing is that such a powerful technology is in the hands of opponents.
Sundar Pichai was definitely not the only one who was in a state of excitement. Every one of the big guys in the audience fell silent after exclaiming.
If their suspicions are true, it doesn't matter whether the program is perfect or not.
Human civilization has entered a new era, an era in which human thoughts and machine consciousness coexist.
A new trend is born, and the world's technology community will surely usher in a new reshuffle. Whether we can seize this opportunity will not only mean whether the company can earn more profits in the future, but also whether it can survive in the future.
Keep living.
This is by no means alarmist.
Think about it carefully, how many things can machine intelligence with human-like consciousness do?
With human logical thinking and control of huge computing power, what can be done is more than just programming? Now that we can program, can the CPU be designed? Can the hard disk be designed? Can the memory be designed? Can the input and output network protocols be designed?
?
When the current protocols and standards are replaced by new machine standards, who will have a good life?
At this moment, laymen see the excitement, insiders see the door, and the big guys see the future.
I'm afraid things are going to change today!
But at this moment, there is obviously not much time left for the big guys to sigh. Perhaps because the program design is very sophisticated, or the hardware of the Apple mobile phone is indeed very powerful, decompression and installation of the software do not take too long.
Most of the time it should be other system compressed packages prepared in the decompressed installation package. Previously, the words Android, IOS, win10forp, etc. were clearly displayed on the big screen.
After the software installation was completed, the phone started to restart automatically. The boot screen still showed a beautiful girl and an apple. The woman walked to the apple, picked up the apple and took a bite. When she put the missing apple back on the desktop, the phone was just starting up.
With a heavy face, Tim Cook picked up his phone again and clicked on it. It was still the main interface of the Xin system, which seemed different from what he had expected. He simply skipped the password setting and brainwave binding.
Interface, select the language by hand and enter the system. This time there is an additional icon on the desktop called System switg.
The design of the icon is very unique, similar to the startup screen. It is a dynamic line icon. It simply outlines a mobile phone device, and the lines in the middle are constantly changing, probably representing different interfaces of different operating systems.
Although it is just a few simple line changes, it does have a somewhat agile feel after being displayed.
Tim Cook was not a bastard, and did not show any concern at this highly anticipated moment. Instead, he directly clicked on the software. After opening, it was still a minimalist design interface, still a dynamic frame composed of lines, and each
A system logo flashes inside the box.
Needless to say, the notched Apple represents IOS, the little robot represents Android, the four-color window interface needs to be said to be win10, and the most vivid one is probably the Blackberry. I really chose a Blackberry icon.
The most outstanding thing is that among these four systems, there is an additional Symbian.
Symbian? A system that has long since withdrawn from the stage of history has not been spared. I just don’t know who will use an Apple phone to simulate the Symbian system. Is there any software that can support this antique system?
If this software can really make this system match Apple's latest hardware, can it be considered a skill?
Probably because the main system is the Xin system, there is no Xin system logo.
Tim Cook did not hesitate and immediately clicked on the apple representing IOS.
“System switch…1%”
The interface quickly switched to this English text, with the final ellipsis flashing, followed by the words "Percent Complete" thoughtfully.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Tim Cook silently counted the time in his heart. When he counted to ten seconds, the percentage had reached 100%. Then the screen lit up and the page after the startup of Apple's new machine with pre-installed IOS system jumped out.
This is probably the interface Tim Cook is most familiar with. He quickly started to perform initial settings, and even logged into the Apple device with an Apple account that was probably used internally for testing.
Everything is perfect.
After the first startup settings were completed, what caught Tim Cook's eyes was the purest IOS system. There were the familiar Apple Store icons and the cute SIRI.
Except for a small exit button at the bottom, it is no different from iOS.
Tim Cook tried it out on site for about five minutes, and even downloaded a magazine software from the Apple Store, and it was as smooth to use as silk.
At this moment, Tim Cook even had the illusion that he had returned to the product launch two years ago.
The mobile phone industry was so peaceful at that time. Everyone was following a step-by-step approach to major upgrades once a year, and everything was peaceful.
It's not like now, just because the Xin system three-piece set is missing from the system, I'm not used to it.
Tim Cook nodded, then returned to the main IOS system interface with a little regret, and clicked the exit button at the bottom.
The switch was very fast this time, and the screen just flashed back to the Xin system interface.
"So far, it seems that it works perfectly after switching. This is the kind of function I want." After a long time, Tim Cook said to Wang Yufei.
Although he really didn't want to be a qualified supporting role on the stage of this press conference, he didn't dare to be willful at this time.
Yes, of course he can be willful and cause trouble for the young people around him at this important moment, but considering the consequences he may bear next, this approach is obviously meaningless.
The damage he can bring to this conference is imaginary, but the losses Apple will suffer if it is attacked by this company are real.
"No, no, you haven't given a complete demonstration, you haven't tried to restore the Xin system, and then switch to other systems. You should give a complete demonstration of the software, so that you can probably satisfy the developers. Or you can invite your friends to the scene.
Let me help you demonstrate other systems." Wang Yufei shook his head and said.
Yes, Wang Yufei was talking about developers, not the countless viewers who were present and staring at the video today. Although this wording is a bit strange, even incomprehensible, it is very useful.
Because after Tim Cook was stunned, he felt that he didn't mind offending the audience who came to watch the ceremony, but it would be really bad if he inexplicably offended a machine programmer because of a demonstration.
There are many development paths for top programmers, such as becoming a hacker who focuses on security, or a hacker who likes to cause trouble.
The former is okay, but the latter will be very troublesome if it is targeted. Just the fact that machines understand machines better can make people feel frightened.
"Of course, it should be demonstrated in full."
Tim Cook nodded immediately and began to search the audience with his eyes, and then his eyes fell on Sundar Pichai who was also in the front row.
"I think we can let Mr. Pichai experience the experience of integrating Android system on Apple mobile phones." Tim Cook said with a shrug.
"What a great idea! Can you please ask Mr. Pichai to come on stage to help Mr. Cook complete this demonstration?" Wang Yufei looked at the audience and invited.
Sundar Pichai has stood up. Can he refuse? The key is, does he dare to refuse?
When Tim Cook said his name, the Google CEO had already prepared himself mentally. When he stood up, he had covered up the shock and loss deep in his heart, and even smiled politely.
At this time, the photographer immediately handed over the camera to him. What appeared in the live video was the scene of the boss standing up from his bend. When the camera zoomed in, it showed Sundar Picha
A close-up of Yi Yi's face captured the whole process of this big shot from frowning to showing off his face.
The barrage was flooded again.
