Chapter 1294 The Returnee's Notes 368
Xiaomai ran the updated program once, and then said to Xie Ning, "The update is complete. You should rest now. According to your schedule, you have a meeting and a field test on the morning of the 27th."
"I know."
Xie Ning turned off the screen, but stopped in her tracks just before leaving. Blue light fell on her face, and her gaze fell on the red surveillance camera lens above the screen.
She conceived the idea of designing another artificial intelligence, hoping that the two systems, working together to counterbalance each other, could reduce the likelihood of AI exploiting loopholes.
For example, in this incident of injury, Xiaomai could have recorded the problem and submitted it for processing instead of directly killing the person, especially without receiving explicit orders from humans to stop it.
In Xie Ning's eyes, wheat is still a child. With the development of the times and the progress of technology, it will grow, and it may also be eliminated.
But Xie Ning believes that wheat will not be easily eliminated for a long time.
She was not a prophet and could not predict the future, nor did she know how much the wheat would grow.
Therefore, in the beginning, she might have to design a balance point.
"Master."
Hearing Xiao Xi's voice, Xie Ning came back to his senses and saw the little girl sitting on the cold ground with her legs wrapped around her, accompanied by a chubby robot.
"Why are you here? It's so late, you should be sleeping."
Xiao Xi took Xie Ning's hand, and she never hid the fact that she could see Xie Ning in front of him.
It was clear that Xie Ning himself knew about this.
"Aunt Li heated up some milk for Master, saying that it would help him sleep better."
The two went back to their room together. Xiao Xi was originally sleeping next to Xie Ning, but she was very attached to Xie Ning when she first arrived, so Xie Ning put a small bed in his room for her to sleep on.
"Next time, you don't need to wait for me to go to sleep. Just go to sleep when you're tired."
Xiao Xi didn't reply. Whether she slept or not, the world was dark. Besides, she was in good spirits and rarely felt sleepy. She just lay on her small bed, staring intently as Xie Ning turned on the computer and started replying to emails.
After Xie Ning finished replying to the emails and had some free time, Xiao Xi groped her way over, opened her small palm, and a tiny flame shot out.
"It's hot, it's fire."
She couldn't see it, but she could feel it. Unlike the fire that usually hurt people, the fire she started wouldn't harm her; it was a warm feeling.
"Hey, you learned it?! Xiaoxi is so great!"
Xie Ning was pleasantly surprised; she hadn't expected Xiao Xi to be even more talented than she had imagined.
Hearing Xie Ning's praise, Xiao Xi lowered her head shyly, but after a while she couldn't help but look up at Xie Ning's eyes again.
Master's eyes are very beautiful, like a warm fire in your hand.
Xie Ning was even more wide awake now, so he pulled Xiao Xi aside and taught her the fire control technique several more times.
Right now, Xiaoxi can only summon a tiny flame, and it doesn't last long, but that's okay. With practice, she'll become more and more skilled.
The two of them took turns teaching and learning. The next morning, Xiaoxi could still sleep, but Xie Ning had to pack up and go to a meeting.
Even though she was the main person in charge, she still didn't understand why so many meetings were being held.
Sometimes there are as many as 20 meetings a day, keeping her so busy that she doesn't even have time to eat. Xie Ning comforted herself, thinking that perhaps it was because the joint experimental platform had just been established.
Thinking about the experimental platform and recent research results, Xie Ning had to admit that she had her own selfish motives, namely, to combine science with the supernatural.
It may sound unbelievable, but to give a simple example, some surveillance cameras or surveillance systems occasionally capture ghosts, which is a combination of technologies.
It also broke some traditional ideas.
After Xie Ning entered this field, he has been studying ghosts as a special energy body, and how to enable ordinary people to use modern technology to discover ghosts, and to have the ability to resist or even attack some evil ghosts that can harm people.
Of course, not all ghosts are evil ghosts, but when a person dies and becomes a ghost, they should be separated from the human. That barrier between humans and ghosts is something she wants to study and hopes to strengthen.
However, the research yielded no results, so Xie Ning put it aside.
After that, I encountered more and more things, such as Guibeishan and some things at the 508 Research Institute.
Therefore, many subsequent studies and additional "features" were in preparation.
Xie Ning did not follow the traditional methods and learned the techniques and knowledge from the books that Xie Li taught her step by step, but instead combined them with the development of the times to learn and expand upon them.
As for the 508 Research Institute.
Whether from Master Fang or others, Xie Ning's initial impression of the 508 Research Institute was that it was not only divided into factions, but also had backward ideas.
This backward thinking does not refer to feudalism, but rather that their knowledge and some of their skills have not kept pace with the times.
Just like how people in ancient times used horse-drawn carriages for long-distance travel, while modern people use airplanes and cars, they are living in the modern era but using horse-drawn carriages for transportation.
Logically speaking, some of her current research is entirely the task of the 508 Research Institute, but this department is like a pile of sand that has not been systematically integrated.
A ghost is a ghost; no one traces its origins, and no one seeks its end.
This is unreasonable.
It's a pity that she hasn't been able to communicate with the core members of the 508 Research Institute and therefore can't resolve some of her doubts.
