Chapter 184: One Hundred Million
It was third Wednesday and Jack was walking through his white room on the way to his lab when he heard maniacal laughter emanating from the hallway that led to Madison’s office. Curious, he headed to her office.
When he walked in, he found Madison sitting at her desk, head back, cackling with glee. Nora and Rina were still in the training room.
Seeing him, she jumped up and ran to him, grabbing him in a hug. Then she pulled him around to her side of the triangle desk and pointed at her screen.
"Look, look. One hundred million!"
There was a mess of numbers and graphs on her screen, and none of it made sense to him.
"One hundred million what?"
"Cerebras! I was able to upgrade the server sim to one hundred million Cerebras!"
He had only granted her permission to run a single ten kilometer radius simulation, so he didn’t understand how she’d managed to power so many computers in a single simulation.
"How? Won’t that many servers require something like two point five terawatts of power?!"
"Yep. But I solved it."
"How?"
She clicked on something, and a diagram appeared on her screen. It showed solar panels flipped on their sides perpendicular to the ground with a wedge-shaped structure between the panels.
