Chapter 495: Better than doing nothing



Artificial intelligence Xiaoxi Steinbeck was stunned for a moment.

Artificial intelligence is not absent in this world. It is even very common. After all, it is just a software supported by big data. Basically, every personal terminal has a so-called artificial intelligence installed.

However, that kind of artificial intelligence can only be regarded as elementary artificial intelligence.

So, Steinbeck was not clear about what the other party meant.

But what happened next was something he would never forget.

"Professor Steinbeck, I know you. Although some of your ideas are beyond this era, they are actually very close to the correct formula, such as the Andre Third Formula you proposed thirteen years ago." Xiaoxi talked non-stop like a chatterbox.

Steinbeck was completely stunned.

What did he hear? An artificial intelligence discussing advanced scientific concepts with him?

"Excuse me, is there someone controlling this behind the scenes?" Stanbeck couldn't help but interrupt Xiaoxi, his voice even trembling a little.

Combined with what Reed had just said, he actually already had a guess in his mind.

But this conjecture is too terrible and too unbelievable.

So much so that he simply couldn't believe it.

"Didn't I introduce myself?" Xiao Xi in the interface put her hands on her hips, with obvious dissatisfaction in her tone, "I am an artificial intelligence life, not the artificial intelligence you understand. I am me, and my scientific research ability far exceeds that of any human in this world!"

Xiaoxi's words made Steinbeck's incredible conjecture become reality!

Artificial intelligence life!

And it is an artificial intelligence life with scientific research capabilities! What does this mean? It means a scientist with huge computing and calculation capabilities! "How far have you come?" Steinbeck was incoherent again, "Emotional simulation? Autonomous thinking? Can you have scientific research inspiration beyond logic, you..."

"All of them! I have everything you said!" Xiaoxi interrupted Steinbeck. "I know it's hard for you to accept, but the facts are in front of you. I have reached the level of life. You can completely regard me as a human being with some special features. In fact, I think I am a human being."

After the birth of artificial intelligence life, it does have the concept of "self".

Xiaoxi is Reed's artificial intelligence assistant. Although she has only been around for a short time and has not yet evolved her own emotional module, no one can tell the difference in her level of simulation.

Steinbeck was speechless.

If there is no one manipulating everything behind the scenes, then everything in front of us is enough to illustrate and explain a lot of things.

For example, why was the other party able to come up with such design drawings?

Such an artificial intelligence is an extremely terrifying existence in itself. She can even subvert the scientific research development of the entire world! She is a completely fantasy-level scientist!

However, after being shocked by his own strength, Steinbeck's body trembled even more violently.

Because he has already thought about the significance of this artificial intelligence in front of him.

——Hope! Yes, this is the real hope! Strong scientific research capabilities and strong technological accumulation mean that the biggest obstacle facing mankind's self-rescue has already cracked into huge cracks! If a large number of immigrant spaceships can be produced, it will be possible to build a huge immigrant city in space, and humans can get rid of the increasingly harsh living environment! Even just establishing an outer space planting base so that food planting is no longer affected by fungi and climate is enough to allow the current more than one billion people to barely survive! "Such technology, such a miracle, must be notified to the global government immediately!" Stanbeck trembled, staring at the two people in front of him, and even added with a stronger tone, "Only the world regime can mobilize the whole world and turn technology into reality!"

Dale stroked her father's back with some uneasiness.

But he was also looking at the artificial intelligence on the tablet and the two people in front of him with some excitement.

Be able to understand your father's feelings.

However, she had not yet despaired of this world and was now more curious about this powerful technology.

To her, it was like a dreamy girl seeing real magic.

Full of curiosity about turning fantasy into reality.

However, compared to their excitement, Reed and Gu Yan seemed too calm.

"Are you sure that the world government still has such mobilization power?" Reed just asked this question calmly, and Steinbeck's expression stiffened.

But Reed did not pause, as if not giving Steinbeck a chance to catch his breath, and continued:

"We are not completely ignorant of the current situation in the world. Most people are just waiting for death in a daze. They have completely given up and only care about their current lives. This includes those in the world's political regimes. Look at what they have done? They have given up education and science, and only call for fewer births. They even try every means to dig more resources out of people's already impoverished hands for their own enjoyment!"

To put it bluntly, the world's political regimes today only have superficial significance.

What kind of farsighted leaders does a civilization that has almost given up on itself want? Maybe they are not completely rotten, but they are definitely incompetent.

And these words of Reed undoubtedly hit Steinbeck's heart like a heavy hammer.

Because he also knows it very well.

In other words, most people in this world know what their world will look like.

They don't even want their offspring to be born into such a world.

However, Steinbeck suddenly clenched his skinny fingers tightly.

"That's because there was no hope. Now it's different. Humanity still has hope!"

"Really?" Reed didn't comment, but said calmly, "Thirty years ago, you also had hope, and it was a lot of hope, but what was the result?"

Steinbeck's heart twitched violently.

Thirty years ago, this space immigration project was launched.

However, he watched helplessly as the hope of mankind disappeared bit by bit.

He struggled and gave up.

In the end, he even decided to have a daughter into this world to inherit his last, even somewhat ridiculous hope.

Therefore, he could not answer this question at all, let alone make any promises.

But at this time.

Dale, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up: "Whether there is hope or not, it's better than doing nothing."
