There were far more clever people in the world than just Old Ren and his companions. Countless others had also recognized the power of the Ling series chips.
This was a truly disruptive product in the semiconductor industry, no less significant than the transition from vacuum tubes to integrated circuits.
Humanity had always worked toward giving machines the ability to think like the human brain, pursuing advances in both hardware and software to that end.
The dragon scale intelligent core developed by Phantom Immortal Technology had already achieved intelligent software to some extent, but certain bottlenecks remained. Now, Phantom Immortal Technology had extended that evolution to hardware.
Many people called this day the true dawn of the artificial intelligence era.
AI software plus Ling series chips had become the standard configuration for artificial intelligence.
The extraordinary perception and analytical capabilities displayed by the Ling series chips also inspired many people to envision all kinds of applications.
The world had never lacked clever people, nor had it ever lacked flashes of inspiration.
True artificial intelligence could be applied to every aspect of daily life. This was an enormous industry.
It was much like the internet's contribution to society's wealth. Before the internet appeared, had anyone imagined such a vast market?
By the same logic, true artificial intelligence would open up an entirely new market, perhaps even heralding the arrival of the global Fifth Industrial Revolution.
An industrial revolution would inevitably bring sweeping social changes. People's lifestyles would change dramatically, and social classes might well be reshuffled.
Anyone who found a promising niche in AI applications might just become a billionaire.
Yet all these applications depended on the widespread adoption of Ling series chips.
For a time, countless eyes turned toward Phantom Immortal Technology, hoping to claim a share of the coming
