Chapter 427 This is our quantum supremacy
In terms of computational complexity, the two models are completely on different dimensions.
This allows the Suanjing to predict special weather with more complex causes, and allows the Suanjing to maintain a high level of accuracy in long-term weather forecasts.
After a month, the first phase of the quantum competition ended.
Suanjing easily won the first stage of the quantum competition with a high score of 98.86.
Vulture, on the other hand, only scored 78.42 due to its failure to predict some special weather conditions and its short prediction period.
With such a result, everyone can basically see which quantum computer has stronger computing power.
"Sure enough, the previous data are all of great reference value. The calculation speed of the Suanjing is about 300 times that of the Vulture. The results of the first phase of the quantum competition also basically confirmed this conclusion. The two quantum computers are not at the same level at all."
"The Vulture's prediction accuracy is acceptable in the short term, but in the long term, it is completely untrustworthy. On the other hand, the Suanjing is just like its name, and can accurately perform various complex calculations."
"It seems that the outcome of the quantum competition is no longer in doubt. The energy planning for the next stage is not like weather forecasting, which is subject to great randomness. If nothing unexpected happens, the algorithm will continue to crush the vultures."
However, some American netizens do not believe that their country's technology will lose to China, and still have some doubts about Suanjing's victory.
Some people even speculated that the heavy rain in Reisewinie was an artificial rainfall, otherwise it would have been impossible for this heavy rain not to have been predicted by other meteorological organizations.
Next, the quantum competition entered the second stage.
The second stage of the competition is the energy planning part.
The competition items include wind power generation planning, energy conservation and emission reduction plans in the energy field, optimization of energy production and use, etc.
Since this stage of the competition does not require actual verification and only requires both parties to plan according to the conditions, this stage of the competition will soon be over.
This time, Suanjing defeated Vulture by two points.
Although the score gap seems to be much smaller than last time, a completely objective rule like this almost completely tests the computing and planning capabilities of the two quantum computers.
The two-point gap basically reflects that the computing power of the two quantum computers is not at the same level.
This allowed Suanjing to secure victory in the quantum competition in advance.
Because I have completely lost confidence in the third stage of competitive gaming competition.
IBM withdrew from the quantum competition early, citing the need for maintenance of the vulture.
This also made Suanjing lose the opportunity to continue pressing the vulture to the ground and rubbing it.
"It's a pity that I can't test the ultimate computing power of the Suanjing."
Xu You felt a little disappointed when he learned that Vulture withdrew from the quantum competition early.
Because the computing power of the vulture is stronger than that of the island.
In competitive games such as Go, Vulture should be a stronger opponent than Island.
However, since IBM did not want to continue the quantum competition, Xu You had to respect their choice.
And the moment Vulture announced his withdrawal from the competition, people all over the world began to talk about this quantum competition.
"I thought Suanjing would win, but I didn't expect such a crushing victory. In the end, the vultures were scared and withdrew directly from the competition. This time, the United States really lost face in front of people all over the world."
"Haha, is this vulture going to miss the third stage of the competition due to illness? If not, we can let Haidao take over. Maybe Haidao is the second most powerful quantum computer in the world."
"If IBM hadn't taken the initiative to provoke this quantum competition, they wouldn't have been ridiculed like this. China has proved with its strength that they are the country that truly possesses quantum hegemony."
After the quantum competition ended, the superiors were discussing with Xu You and other project team members whether these mathematical results could be made public in the future.
After detailed discussions, everyone unanimously decided that some of the results of the mathematical theory could be made public.
For example, weather forecasts can be shared free of charge with every country in the world.
This is of great benefit for early warning of various natural disasters and facilitating people's lives and travel.
Including Reserwinie, which was severely affected by heavy rains before, we are still willing to continue sharing the weather forecast according to the calculation.
This allows them to often remember this heavy rain that will be unforgettable in their lives.
In fact, this arrangement has certain similarities with the US GPS positioning system, which is open to the world for free.
This will not only demonstrate our technological strength, but also contribute to people around the world.
At the same time, it can also make the whole world dependent on our weather forecasting system, inhibiting their development in related fields.
In addition, in order to reduce the possibility of this system being used by other countries' military, we have made some simplifications in its functions to make it stronger than all other weather forecast systems, but not yet extremely accurate.
Only our own military can use its most complete functions.
If any country dares to do something wrong towards us again after this, we can shut down this system against them at any time.
The whole world saw the serious losses caused by Leatherwinie's failure to prepare for the heavy rain in advance.
If you don't have enough confidence in your own technology.
I believe no one will dare to easily annoy us again. After all, algo- rithms are far more sensitive than other weather forecasting systems in warning of natural disasters.
As for the energy planning scheme, the calculation will not be used externally at will.
In the second phase of the quantum competition, algorithms can improve the efficiency of optimized energy planning solutions by 20 to 50 percent.
Even though this is only theoretical data, the improvement will be very obvious in actual applications.
Such an important function will naturally not be easily used externally.
…
After the quantum competition is over, "mathematical theory" will truly enter the application stage.
Xu You's original intention in creating the algorithm was not to win the quantum competition, but to enable this quantum computer to change the world and improve people's lives through its powerful computing power.
The first task that Suanjing accepted was to help us solve the power shortage problem in some areas.
Due to various reasons, we encountered some difficulties in power supply.
These problems cannot be solved by superconducting cables in the short term. The best way is to plan the use of electricity.
The algorithm with strong computing power is naturally the most suitable to solve this problem.
