Wi-Fi 7 domestic standard is about to be implemented

According to the official website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on June 1, Wi-Fi 7 related standards are expected to be implemented soon.

Wi-Fi 7 equipment is planned to require testing of multi-link operation (MLO) characteristics, with operating frequency ranges of 2400-2483.5MHz, 5150-5350MHz and 5725-5850MHz. Throughput can be increased through chip-level multi-channel connections, allowing Faster network speed and avoid lagging. The test of Wi-Fi 7 equipment also introduced 4096-QAM, which increased the carrying capacity of each network transmission from 10 bits to 12 bits, improving the throughput performance by about 20% compared to Wi-Fi 6.

At present, many mobile phones and routers have announced support for Wi-Fi 7 and use this as a selling point, such as the Xiaomi 13 series, which claims that it only takes 2.9 seconds to download a 1GB movie.

As the news spread more and more widely, it even alarmed the AI ​​bosses and even aroused their anger.

Recently, LeCun, Ng Enda, and Terence Tao have refuted the rumors - this is just a hypothetical "thought experiment" and does not involve any AI agents or reinforcement learning. Andrew Ng sadly called on us to face the real risks honestly.

Mathematics master Terence Tao, who rarely updates his status, was actually exposed, saying that this was just a hypothetical scenario to illustrate the AI ​​alignment problem, but in many versions it was passed down as a real story of the murder of a drone operator. This story resonates with people and shows that most people don’t understand the actual level of capabilities of artificial intelligence. (Source: Xinzhiyuan)
