Artificial Intelligence Developer Cheolwoo Lee (15)
After returning to Korea, I was thinking about various things in the lab room.
‘Well, first of all, autonomous driving will be made easy. But how do you make artificial intelligence for interpretation?’
If there is black box data from Chenchensa and corresponding navigation data, autonomous driving can be easily created.
It is because you can create an artificial intelligence model with MI and train it.
Then I thought that if I modified the X-380 I was riding a little, it would be fine.
First of all, it is enough to create an autonomous driving system, and the problem is artificial intelligence for interpretation.
‘Where can I get interpretation data?’
Interpretation artificial intelligence first needs a lot of voice data, and it needs translated voice data that fits it.
Unless we were learning sentence by sentence, we had to analyze voice data as well.
‘It must be difficult to obtain standardized data, right?’
It’s easy to get voice data, but it seemed like it would be difficult to get data that was translated to match it.
It was impossible to hire all the interpreters in the world and create data.

While I was thinking about this and that, someone knocked on my door and came in.
“Cheolwoo!”
It was Minseok.
“Oh, are you here?”
“Ah, I haven’t heard from you since you said you’ve been to China. So I’ve been there once.”
“Ha ha ha, because there was no special story?”
“Really? What was the story about?”
“I decided to give the data to Chencheng. However, I received an answer that it would be difficult to promote business with it because China was showing a movement to regulate the NF network.”
“Eh? China’s NF network regulation? This is the first time I’ve heard of it?”
“As for how that happened…”
I told Minseok what I had heard from Jeong Ho-nam the day before.
“No, does that make sense? The Chinese government is encouraging illegal actions? Does that make sense?”
“How frantic China is trying to steal our technology. Thinking about that, it seemed to make sense. What is different about IT technology?”
“…… Ha. Dirty bastards.”
“Well, I knew that. But I thought about it a little.”
“You think? Which one?”
“How can I say… If I said there were a lot of people who helped me in the past, it feels like I have a lot of enemies these days.”
Google was an enemy, if to say the least, and the Chinese government was a definite enemy.
“Um…”
After hearing my words, Minseok seemed to be worried.
“why?”
“Oh, I wonder if you knew that now.”
“huh?”
“Actually, while running LF, I received a lot of checks, not checks.”
“Did you?”
“Uh. In particular, in the case of CNC machines, numerous companies have come in to check, saying they will not sell the base technology.”
“……I see? But why didn’t you tell me?”
“What, do I need to do it? I just have to press it with force. I didn’t say it to avoid burdening you.”
“I see…….”
“Yes, it’s only natural that you have enemies. You don’t want to have your vested interests taken away from you. Do you know what my teacher is?”
“What do you say?”
“They say we’re an alien species. Ha ha ha.”
“hahahahaha, is that saying that it destroys the current ecosystem?”
“That’s right. Anyway, don’t be too discouraged just because there are more enemies. In the end, the one who survives is the strongest, and that’s because they have skills.”
“Okay. I won’t worry too much about that. Oh, and I have one more concern.”
“What is it this time?”
“We need to get the interpretation data.”
Minseok heard that, thought for a bit, then said.
“Well, after all, artificial intelligence is a data battle.”
Minseok, who knew the concept of artificial intelligence, got the point right.
“That’s right. Right now we have better AI development modules, but in the end it’s a data battle.”
“How about that? Going to Naver or Cocoa?”
The companies holding a lot of data are, of course, IT companies. Among them, it would be Nave and Cocoa, which stand tall as two towers in Korea.
But no matter how much they are, are they holding the interpretation data?
“Um, but it’s still not a globally recognized company. Do you have interpretation data?”
“That too.”
“So, I thought about which one would be holding the most. Maybe it’s Google?”
“…… Google? Sure, it is.”
When the unexpected words came out, Minseok put on a puzzled expression for a moment, but soon accepted.
“Of course, to obtain interpretation data, many educational institutions, especially those that create fellowships, must be involved.”
“Yes! There must be a lot on the education side.”
“But there was a bit of a problem with that. Apparently, there is a little bit of a gap between the audio data from training and the actual data.”
“Um… is that so?”
“Uh, if we create artificial intelligence with educational data, the interpreter AI will only be able to produce a voice for education. The interpreter AI will speak slowly. It can be used simply for translation, but there are many of them everywhere.”
That wasn’t the only reason I thought of Google.
Even though they are being classified as enemies right now, they have a lot of data. Data centers alone were located all over the world. The scale was huge too.
“You mean that?”
“Let’s bump into each other. You haven’t met Google yet, have you?
“Huh, Lee Cheol-woo… did you grow up a lot?”
“hahahaha, I learned from you. And there’s one more thing that takes me.”
“Is there anything else you’re having?”
“Uh, even if the NF network is growing now, pure information data minus calculation data is less than half of the data that Google has. What is half of half, less than 10%?”
Google has been building data for decades.
It was nothing compared to Google and the fledgling NF Network.
“I guess so.”
“Strong artificial intelligence… To create it, the amount of data in the current NF network seems to be insufficient.”
I didn’t know how strong artificial intelligence would be created, but it would probably require a lot of data. Even for that, Google’s data was needed.
I had to admit what I had to admit.
Google had the most data in the world.
“……. Okay. Then let’s bump into each other.”
“Okay. Let’s go. To America.”

LF sent an official letter to Google saying they wanted to meet, and Google also replied that they wanted to meet us.
And we made an appointment right away, and just arrived in front of Google’s headquarters.
“Wow, Google… that’s amazing? It’s so spacious and nice that it can’t be compared to our office building.”
Minseok said while looking at Google’s office building.
“Hey, are you from the village? Come to your senses.”
“No, I’m suddenly very depressed. We should build a company building quickly.”
“Weren’t you building it?”
“It’s still under construction planning. I haven’t even used a shovel.”
“I see. But did Google answer that they would be happy to meet us?”
“So that’s why I’m a bit puzzled. I thought they were going to ask why they wanted to meet. Maybe Google is curious about us, too.”
“Well, let’s go. If we go, it will work out somehow.”
We entered the entrance of the Google building and Minseok spoke to the guide in fluent English.
“Hello. I’m from LF.”
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been treated so well lately, but I felt a little sad that no one was there.
By the way, when did Minseok become able to speak English so fluently? That’s great.
“This is a meeting with director Nelson and manager Martin. We will guide you.”
Still, as if they knew we were coming, the guide guided us right away.
The place we went to was a neat meeting room.
“Wait a minute. He’s on his way. Would you like a cold drink?”
“yes.”
I was drinking water for a while when two white men came in. I couldn’t tell her age precisely because she was white, but I had a feeling that one was in her mid-50s. Another looked to be in his late 30s.
“Hello. It’s an honor to have you come here from LF, which is becoming a hot issue. I’m Director Nelson, who is in charge of the Strategic Planning Headquarters. Nice to meet you.”
A person who appeared to be in his 50s introduced himself and shook our hand.
“Hello. This is Martin from the Strategic Planning Division. Nice to meet you.”
After shaking hands with Director Nelson, I also shook hands with Martin.
Then we sat down and stared at each other for a while without speaking.
momentary silence. While not knowing what to say, Minseok spoke first.
“Thank you for meeting me.”
“No. We really wanted to meet you too. The automatic harvesting robot is amazing.”
“No. AlphaGo, which conquered Go, is more amazing.”
“hahahaha, is it the Eastern country of courtesy? Humility is a virtue.”
They are also tech companies. You probably know that we have better technology.
“hahahaha no.”
After that, another moment of silence passed.
Then, as if it couldn’t be done, Minseok opened his mouth first.
“Um… Let’s talk first. Why are you refusing to participate in the NF Network?”
“hahahaha, you’re asking the question aggressively right away. Don’t you know how much? Network fee. We don’t have to pay that fee.”
After hearing Nelson’s words, I thought to myself.
‘I probably don’t need it right now.’
After that, there will be things that are absolutely necessary.
“hahahaha, that’s right. If the fee is an issue, we can exclude it.”
“hahahahaha, it’s okay. I’ll decline.”
Minseok and Director Nelson are laughing and talking, but they are probably doing a lot of calculations in each other’s heads.
“NF’s vision for the future is great. Would you like to join us?”
“As I said before officially, we, Google, will not participate unless there is a big issue.”
“Well, that’s a pity. I thought I could be a good partner.”
We’ve been expecting this so far.
“Did you come all the way here to say that?”
He knew we didn’t come all the way to America to say this.
“hahahaha, you’re sharp. We’re preparing another artificial intelligence. And we have the data we need for that. I’ve been thinking about where we can get that data, but no one has as much data as Google.”
“I see. Certainly no one holds as much data as we, Google.”
“So I’m here to make a deal. I want to buy data.”
We finally said what we wanted to say.
We are here to buy data from Google. The relationship with Google, which was still ambiguous, could have been improved.
Isn’t it said that there are no permanent enemies and no permanent allies?

“…”
Director Nelson was silent at Minseok’s words.
“Yes. You seem to already know this, but I’ll be honest. We’re better at artificial intelligence. And data takes time, but you can get it if you want to. You have the money to do it. came.”
data. It’s true that it was hard to find, but it wasn’t impossible either.
I could have saved it if I had money. But it’s not just money, it’s a problem because it takes too much time.
“Hmm, I’ll have to listen. What kind of artificial intelligence are you building?”
“We use artificial intelligence to communicate…”
Before the word “interpretation” came out, I interrupted Minseok.
“We’re going to build a strong AI.”
