Intelligent Assistant 1.0

That's right, Li Zhou planned to use the Han Language Programming Language in his mind to develop an Intelligent Assistant.

As a brand-new development language that only Li Zhou himself knew, aside from using a TXT document, he couldn't think of any other good development tools.

Staring at the blank TXT document, Li Zhou felt that after completing the Intelligent Assistant's development, he would need to write a set of development tools.

A program's development often relies on libraries. Library files are a type of file on a computer, providing users with ready-to-use variables, functions, or classes. Library files are divided into static libraries and dynamic libraries. The difference between static and dynamic libraries lies in the linking stage of the program: static libraries are copied into the program during linking; dynamic libraries are not copied during linking but are loaded into memory by the system at runtime for the program to call. With dynamic libraries, the system only needs to load them once, and different programs can share copies of the same dynamic library in memory, thus saving a lot of memory and facilitating modular program updates.

In an operating system, many applications are not just a single complete executable file. Most program modules are split into relatively independent dynamic libraries. When we run a certain program, the corresponding dynamic library files are called. An application can use multiple dynamic library files, and a dynamic library file may also be used by different applications—such files are called shared library files.

Well, in the end, it boils down to one thing: without libraries, even if Li Zhou wrote the code for the Intelligent Assistant, it would just be a highly unreadable block of text, completely unable to generate a program that could run on a phone or computer.

So before developing the Intelligent Assistant, Li Zhou also needed to write a Han Language library. However, Li Zhou had a ready-made Han Language library in his mind, defined by the system. He just needed to act as a code porter.

In the quiet Dormitory 609, aside from the rhythmic clatter of the keyboard, only the sound of the air conditioner's outdoor unit outside could be heard.

In the July weather, even at CHZU Academy, built at the foot of a mountain scenic area, the summer sun was still formidable.

Li Zhou enjoyed the cool breeze from the air conditioner, comfortably tapping away at the keyboard. The Han Language library contained not only modern Chinese characters but also ancient pictographic characters. According to the system's explanation, pictographic characters were the key to the birth of Artificial Intelligence.

Three hours later, it was already late at ten at night. Li Zhou, relying on his twenty years of single-hand speed, finally managed to fully port the Han Language library from his mind.

Looking at the Han Language library, which was less than one megabyte in size, Li Zhou let out a deep sigh of relief. Don't underestimate it being less than one megabyte—the charm of the Han Language lay precisely in a library of less than one megabyte.

It's like saying, "In winter, wear as much as you have," and "In summer, wear as much as you have." The phrase "wear as much as you have" is the same, but the meaning expressed is completely different. As a native of Xia Country, everyone understands that winter is cold, so naturally you wear as much as you have, and summer is hot, so you wear as little as you have.

For a foreigner, they might find it very hard to understand this "wear as much as you have"—exactly how much to wear.

The advantage of the Han Language library was its ability to "intelligently" understand, based on different scenarios, when to wear more clothes and when to wear less.

Li Zhou twisted his neck, stretching his body that had grown stiff from sitting too long, and began to refine the Han Language library. Although the library was already defined, it still needed further encapsulation. That way, when it was needed later, he could just call the interface.

After changing the TXT document's extension to .fx, Li Zhou skillfully entered the computer's command line interface. As he input a series of continuous commands, a honeycomb-shaped graphic appeared on the computer desktop, spinning nonstop.

This spinning honeycomb graphic was the refined Han Language library. Each cell represented an interface. Moreover, the spinning honeycomb graphic itself was a form of file encryption, exhibiting a "self-judging" capability—it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a prototype of Artificial Intelligence. To crack this kind of "intelligent" file encryption, Li Zhou felt that no country could do it for at least fifty years, and this was his estimate even assuming countries used supercomputers to crack it.

Some might think, if there's a breakthrough in supercomputing or other technologies, couldn't it be cracked then?

But! Would Li Zhou just stand still and not advance?

Furthermore, once Artificial Intelligence was released, as a "god-like" existence in the internet, cracking it would be even more difficult.

Stepping back, Li Zhou didn't plan to keep the Han Language Programming Language hidden forever. When the time was right, he would eventually make it public. After all, Li Zhou needed a complete ecosystem.

Li Zhou could already imagine how sought-after students majoring in ancient literature would be in the future.

At midnight, for a large portion of young people, the nightlife was just beginning. Li Zhou was no exception. Having slept all day and just completed the Han Language library, he was at the peak of a sense of achievement—how could he possibly sleep from excitement?

If not sleeping, what to do? Naturally, develop the first-generation Intelligent Assistant.

By early morning, the sky outside Dormitory 609's window was already faintly bright. Li Zhou finally put down his uncontrollably trembling hands. Even with his twenty years of single-hand speed, a whole night had taken its toll. Fortunately, the first-generation Intelligent Assistant was complete.

Someone might think Li Zhou had been up all night writing a novel, but in reality, for a developer who had thoroughly grasped Han Language culture, developing with the Han Language was just that simple.

Of course, Li Zhou's quick completion also relied on the cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence development concepts in his mind.

For someone who could build a complete rocket, making a bicycle was a piece of cake.

Li Zhou encapsulated and encrypted the completed Intelligent Assistant, then packaged it into an .apk software installation package that could run on a phone system.

After connecting the data cable between the computer and the latest Huawei Mate 30 phone, he opened the phone's developer mode and transferred the Intelligent Assistant installation package, which was only twenty-one megabytes, to his Huawei Mate 30 for installation.

Ignoring the phone system's security warning, he directly chose to install. For software from unofficial app platforms, the phone system would always prompt a security warning—just ignore it.

The next moment, Li Zhou's Huawei Mate 30 phone was as if attacked by a hacker, the screen going black. But in the next second, countless streams of 0s and 1s flowed across the screen. Li Zhou wasn't flustered at all—he had known this would happen.

Li Zhou silently counted. After about ten seconds, the phone returned to normal.
