Algorithm system

The first year of robot regulationBlack and red are also red!

Lin Yuan finally truly understood this phrase.

Because Tesla Delivery hasn’t officially launched yet, and without spending a single cent on advertising, it has already become popular online.

The previous online debates, regardless of the viewpoint, all, without exception, increased the attention on Tesla Delivery.

Lin Yuan only needs to be responsible for the AI support part of Tesla Delivery; as for the construction of the merchant system, that will be handled by Tesla’s existing management team in China. In fact, Tesla now has a considerable localized management team in China. Therefore, after entering the delivery field, they only urgently recruited some professionals who understand the delivery industry, while the management was almost already in place.

Due to the completely different overall strategy of Tesla Delivery compared to the positioning of Good Group and Lanbiao Factory, Lin Yuan had no choice but to re-tinker with the algorithm. This is because Tesla Delivery was positioned as mid-to-high end from the very beginning.

For this reason, the first city chosen for Tesla Delivery was Shanghai, because Shanghai has many wealthy people and huge consumption potential.

The core of the new algorithm Lin Yuan is responsible for revolves around delivery details and food safety.

Food safety goes without saying; since it’s branded as a mid-to-high-end delivery service, food safety is a must, otherwise, why would wealthy people pay?

To solve the food safety issue, all merchants joining the Tesla Delivery platform must unconditionally open their monitoring systems.

This, of course, involves the personal privacy of merchant employees, which would be almost impossible to accept abroad. Because foreigners mostly like to show off, always holding personal privacy higher than the sky.

But personal privacy in the workplace is nothing. What matters most when working is earning more money.

The merchants’ performance also confirmed this; Lin Yuan received a large number of new monitoring camera network access applications daily from his colleagues who were in charge of merchant Docking.

Because all merchants know that Tesla never exploits the poor; following Tesla at least guarantees a share. As for following those other two, it’s pure hard labor.

The employees of those merchants also understand; who doesn’t hope their salary can be a bit higher?

Lin Yuan quickly completed the integration of monitoring systems for hundreds of Shanghai merchants.

It’s good to operate under the Tesla name; if other domestic companies tried to access merchants’ monitoring systems, they would definitely be heavily criticized. But when Tesla does it, many people see it as a necessary attempt for technological progress.

Many tech self-media bloggers have even started to praise: Sometimes, technological progress requires a small sacrifice; Tesla’s attempt this time might be a breakthrough in the field of food safety. Its significance might be no less than SpaceX’s rocket program.

Lin Yuan watched a few videos from self-media bloggers, and it made him feel a bit embarrassed.

Damn, he and Musk never even considered food safety as a core work content from the beginning until now; food safety was just a tool to promote Tesla Delivery.

Unexpectedly, unintentional actions led to success.

The food safety gimmick, originally treated as a tool, suddenly became a hot topic online.

On the domestic internet, everyone is discussing Tesla’s attempt to use AI technology to drive a major revolution in food safety.

This left Lin Yuan at a loss.

Food safety was originally a gimmick introduced to cater to the mid-to-high-end market, but it suddenly became the most talked-about aspect of Tesla Delivery.

So much so that Musk pulled Lin Yuan into several long-distance video conferences, beginning to seriously consider making food safety a key focus for future Tesla Delivery promotions.

Riding on this wave of popularity, Tesla’s stock saw another small increase. This was because Tesla Delivery was seen as an important attempt by Tesla to enter the AI field, and capital was extremely optimistic about the Chinese food safety market.

Lin Yuan was a bit helpless; this was all thanks to his peers.

If it weren’t for those repeatedly nerve-wracking food safety issues, Tesla Delivery’s unintentional concept of using AI to manage food safety wouldn’t have garnered such a huge amount of attention.

At the same time, taking advantage of this wave of attention, Musk began to build momentum for the Cybertruck’s entry into China.

Lin Yuan was also gifted the first Cybertruck from official domestic channels as recognition for his work. This was because Tesla Delivery, even before its launch, had already helped Tesla’s shareholders make a small profit in the stock market.

And the idea for Tesla Delivery came from Lin Yuan, so Lin Yuan received the first Cybertruck in China gifted by Musk.

The significance of this reward was not in the value of a Cybertruck, but in the publicity.

In the future, whenever people talk about the Cybertruck, they will mention that the owner of the first Cybertruck in China is a young man named Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan thus became, in effect, Musk’s number one aide in China.

This identity brought Lin Yuan immense fame, but also quite a bit of trouble.

Lin Yuan was passively considered a representative figure of the younger generation in China embracing globalization, and naturally, he was seen as having intricate ties with the technological capital represented by Musk.

In Zhang Yan’s words, just because of this label he now carries, even if he were to enter the system, it would be difficult for him to go far. This is because, in the eyes of others, Lin Yuan’s connections with foreign capital are too deep.

You’ve become Musk’s number one aide; naturally, you have extensive financial ties with foreign entities, so who would dare to trust and employ you?

From Zhang Yan’s perspective, Lin Yuan would at most just get by in the CPPCC in the future.

Although Lin Yuan felt wronged, fortunately, globalization is currently beneficial to China. In fact, China’s tech circle has many people like Lin Yuan, such as Lei Zi of Xiaomi. Even Huawei has quite a few.

Openness is the current national policy, because any truly powerful empire is open, and likes to go around with gunboats telling others to ”open up for free trade.” Then they use their powerful manufacturing capacity to conquer the economic sovereignty of others.

Therefore, Lin Yuan is essentially contributing to the country through a different path.

As for how to use AI technology to ensure food safety?

The principle is simple: Lin Yuan connects to the monitoring systems of various merchants, then labels the monitoring footage and feeds it to AI for training.

Once the AI training is complete, the trained model can automatically capture instances of footage from various merchants that violate food safety regulations.

After that, it can precisely pinpoint which specific meal items were affected through the monitoring footage, then issue real-time warnings, demanding that the involved employees of the merchant rectify the situation immediately.

In essence, it’s like assigning a robotic cloud supervisor to each merchant.

It’s just that this supervisor hides within the surveillance camera and issues commands through the in-store audio system, making the physical robot invisible.

In Lin Yuan’s own words—it’s essentially letting robots manage humans.

There’s no shortage of clever people in China, and soon someone analyzed Tesla Delivery’s food safety control strategy.

Consequently, many tech big Vs began to specifically dissect Tesla Delivery’s AI strategy. Ultimately, most people reached the same conclusion as Lin Yuan.

Then someone took this conclusion and went to social media to @ Lin Yuan, asking him, ”What you are doing now, perhaps, is not delivery at all, but an attempt to use robots to manage humans.”

Although Lin Yuan’s original intention was not to use robots to manage humans, his actual intention was to disrupt the original delivery landscape through Tesla Delivery, thereby benefiting merchants and delivery riderss.

However, the unpredictability of life lies precisely here: Lin Yuan pressed the starting button, but the development process was difficult to follow his predictions.

Adhering to the principle of not evading, Lin Yuan openly admitted it on social media.

”You are right. Although this was not our original intention in founding Tesla Delivery, we have in fact embarked on an attempt that may have a profound impact on humanity’s future.”

For a moment, public opinion was in an uproar...
