The superiority of the computing power system?
Lin Yuan quickly realized that when the computing power system ran AI model training, it could not only optimize model parameters but also optimize the model itself.
Optimizing model parameters is what all AI model training in the real world does, while optimizing the model itself is something that relies on humans in the real world.
The computing power system has taken over tasks that require human intervention.
'Am I a hermit crab's shell?'
This was Lin Yuan's most direct feeling.
[System, to be blunt, am I your shell?]
[I don't have many ambitions; just take me to fly.]
The System, which had never responded to Lin Yuan's self-talk before, actually replied this time.
[You are me. I am also you.]
Lin Yuan blinked twice at the nonsensical sentence floating in the air before him, [Don't always spout such philosophical remarks. As long as you can preserve my personal consciousness and body, I don't mind being a walking flesh-and-blood shell.]
[System? System? Sys-sys? I'm willing to accept lying flat.]
To be blunt, Lin Yuan's efforts were forced by life. But with two apartments in Zijin City, who would bother taking a postgraduate exam?
However, the System did not give any further response.
Lin Yuan had no choice but to continue his persona as a striver.

After calming down, Lin Yuan quickly opened a new world through his new understanding of the computing power system.
The Hao Tuan Company's algorithms faced two major problems. First, missing sampling data, because parameters related to human uncertainty in the real world could not be collected. Second, too many parameters to calculate, leading to excessive computing power expenditure.
But these two major problems were perfectly solved by the computing power system.
Since the computing power system could collect real-world parameters without Lin Yuan's eyes, it meant that the System and the real world could be connected. Although this connection currently seemed to be one-way—only able to acquire information from the real world, not output information in reverse.
But this was already incredibly powerful, because it allowed the System to collect the operating status of every merchant, and even the working status of every employee within each merchant. This was like having an all-seeing eye.
The second problem was calculation.
Since the computing power system could optimize the model itself, the more it optimized, the higher the computing power exchange rate.
Lin Yuan couldn't even imagine if it could optimize to an exchange rate like the US dollar against the Zimbabwean dollar. If it really reached that point, wouldn't he be calculating the entire universe?
Cough cough, putting aside his fantasies, Lin Yuan still planned to be more realistic; reaching an exchange rate like the US dollar against the Korean won would already be very satisfying.
The more Lin Yuan thought about it, the more excited he got. If the System could truly have an all-seeing eye, then... then... would there be no locks for him in this world? All kinds of passwords, and... all kinds of private matters...
Lin Yuan immediately began to experiment.
[Sys, System. I want to see what the girl who gave me milk tea is doing now.]
Lin Yuan subconsciously closed his eyes first, then slowly opened them, trying his best to appear gentlemanly, even when peeking with the System.
But... he saw nothing.
'Is my posture wrong? Is this a serious System?'
[System, I want to see the printing process of instant scratch-off lottery tickets.]
The System still didn't respond.
[Alright, System, who built the Egyptian pyramids.]
[Who won in the end between Big Mao and Little Mao.]
[Will Mount Fuji be blown up by us in the future.]
.
.
Lin Yuan tried all questions about the past, present, and future, but the System did not give any response.
Finally, he had no choice. He could only try something related to the immediate surroundings.
[System, load all the delivery data collected by the Zijin Branch.]
The System quickly loaded all the delivery data from Lin Yuan's mobile hard drive. However, Lin Yuan knew that the delivery data from the Zijin Branch was not just on this one mobile hard drive. In fact, there was too much delivery data here; he had only copied a portion of it to this mobile hard drive.
Just as he was wondering, the System finally gave a prompt.
[Data loading requires specifying the acquisition method.]
Acquisition method? Lin Yuan immediately asked, [What is an acquisition method?]
The System played dead again.
Lin Yuan could only understand it literally. 'The method of acquiring data?'
The mobile hard drive in his hand was visible to him. Since he saw it, it meant the System knew about it, so the System knew how to acquire the data? It had a method?
He then quickly logged into the database server remotely. Soon, the System completed loading all the delivery data from the database.
Lin Yuan now understood.
The System actually had no all-seeing eye; it could only load data with clear acquisition methods.
For example: the mobile hard drive in his hand, even if Lin Yuan didn't explicitly tell the System there was data inside, the System knew to get data from it. Because this could be judged from Lin Yuan's actions.
Another example: before Lin Yuan logged into the database server, the System didn't know how to load data because it was unclear about the acquisition method.
So, "Data loading requires specifying the acquisition method" was purely literal.
Since the System couldn't have an all-seeing eye, Lin Yuan's idea of lying flat fell through again, and he still had to continue his striver persona.
Since he still had to strive, the best way was to help Good Group solve the delivery route and dispatch optimization algorithms, following the traditional path of an IT mogul.
With his thoughts settled, Lin Yuan began his planning.
To create algorithms, AI model training was required, and AI model training first required data collection. The existing delivery data from Good Group was insufficient; the human factors related to merchants and delivery riderss could not be collected by Good Group.
How could Good Group possibly collect data like the daily working status of each employee at a merchant, or the daily working status of a delivery riders?
But without this data, even a powerful computing power system would be unable to produce accurate algorithms.
So it still came back to the essence of the problem—without enough known conditions, the problem could not be solved. The computing power system was still bound by scientific laws.
Then the next step was naturally to find a way to collect data.
Since the computing power system only needed a data path guide to acquire data, Lin Yuan first thought: would he just need to visit every involved merchant and get to know every delivery riders?
'I don't know if such a path guide will work.'
Regardless of whether it would work, Lin Yuan was ready to try immediately.
Subsequently, he immediately faced a choice. He couldn't possibly get to know all the merchants and delivery riderss in the country; he had to select a region first.
First, select a region, then let the System collect data from that region, then run AI model training, then produce algorithms for that region, and then optimize that region. After that, by helping Hao Tuan Company improve delivery riders work efficiency and reduce the number of station managers and other management costs, Lin Yuan would achieve personal promotion and salary increases.
Which region to choose? Lin Yuan quickly had a target. Of course, it was the River West area where Liu Huzi worked, where he had previously worked.
He would start by tackling Liu Huzi's area and optimize out exploitative station managers like Liu Huzi first.
