Copy 5
The place that was hit by the hail was now soaked with water. No one cared about the few insects wrapped in the ice. As time passed, the awakened insects had already scattered and escaped from the stupid eyes of humans.
At this moment, Su Wanxing's attention was attracted by a crustacean in the crack.
In the dark corner, there was a creepy green light. Two long tentacles had countless segments, as if they were covered with countless aphids, and six tentacles looked like a string of candied haws covered with icing sugar.
The pliers-like mouth opens and closes, revealing densely packed small hairs.
At the moment when the courier boy screamed, the bug was faster than a sword. It jumped up in the blink of an eye and stuck tightly to the back of the courier's neck.
Under the dim light of the house, the beetle finally revealed its true appearance. It was even bigger than a human head!
Six tentacles like candied haws immediately surrounded the courier boy's neck. The two hind legs stretched down and rested in front of the chest. The sticks that pierced the "candied haws" showed their sharp edges at this time.
The courier boy struggled instinctively, grabbing the back of his neck with both hands, but blood gushed out from his forehead and his screams were filled with the fear of death.
Even Su Wanxing's soft exclamation was drowned out by the cries of fear.
She hurriedly touched the delivery box containing a thousand bottles of nutrient solution, put it into the space, and shouted: "Sanqi! Run--"
Sanqi shook his body mechanically twice, hugged Daju with one hand, picked up the little snake with the other, and followed Su Wanxing's fast-moving steps, rushing out of the hole in the wall.
It was unknown how many beetles of this size there were, or how many witnesses there were. Su Wanxing stood at the entrance of the garbage dump, panting, and looked back at the tragic scene.
There were corpses everywhere.
The rescue team is made up entirely of robots, ruthlessly trampling over human corpses in search of their programmed targets.
"It ate my baby!" The woman knelt down in front of a robot with tears in her eyes and a hoarse voice. "A bug that big! It bit off... my daughter's head in one bite! She was only seven months old—"
The robot remained expressionless for two seconds, as if waiting for a program response, then raised its arm, and the rapidly transformed mechanical arm turned into a gun muzzle.
A shot of sedative was injected into the woman's chest, and the hoarse cry disappeared instantly.
Su Wanxing, who witnessed everything, shuddered suddenly.
Sanqi lowered her head and touched the big orange in her arms, and said in a soothing voice: "Since the birth of the robot, the rescue program only allows us to rescue humans with a high survival rate."
Su Wanxing nodded silently. So the robot was probably calculating the survival rate in the event when it was stunned for a few seconds when facing the woman's crying. If it really encountered the famous trolley problem, the robot might not find it difficult to choose.
The woman was carried away by the robot next to her. The robot that had just injected the sedative changed the muzzle of the gun back to its arm and continued to move forward, passing by Su Wanxing and Sanqi.
Seeing Sanqi, the robot stopped and looked at her for a moment, showing a subtle expression, and then slowly moved forward.
Su Wanxing was very familiar with that expression, it was a kind of contempt coming from one's own kind.
Before the natural disaster game started, during his sad and angry student days, Su Wanxing often encountered such looks, not because of contempt for money, nor because of disdain for status.
As if seeing Su Wanxing's doubts, Sanqi smiled bitterly, "Because I am an outlier in my race, so..."
Su Wanxing woke up as if from a dream. Yes, that was the expression of looking at someone who was different from her.
"Them too?" Su Wanxing wanted to ask, do all robots have self-awareness?
Sanqi shook her head. "I don't know either. But with continuous upgrades and iterations, artificial intelligence will become more and more like humans. They know clearly that they are advanced new products and are created to replace defective products. Well... they just don't think about why they want to replace or whether they will be replaced in the future."
So that's how it is. Su Wanxing looked back with understanding, and walked forward with his family until they reached the tall buildings and stopped far away from the garbage dump.
Although he encountered countless contemptuous looks along the way, Su Wanxing never cared, and Sanqi never complained, but just accompanied him silently.
"I seem to be out of place." Sanqi hasn't walked out of the garbage dump for a long time. He followed Su Wanxing and sat on a chair on the roadside. The outside world was more than just unfamiliar to him.
The broken parts, damaged mecha, rusty limbs, and yellowed silicone skin on his body are undoubtedly the focus of the strange world, "more like an alien."
Su Wanxing looked at him silently. She had been regarded as an alien for too long, and she had long been accustomed to the malice of her own kind, and she didn't know how to comfort him for a while.
Instead, the warm sun gradually rose in the sky, and those who didn't know would think it was dawn. But in fact, it was just the polar night fading away and the polar day quietly appearing.
The two of them bathed in the early morning sun, the warm light gradually spread over Su Wanxing's cold face, and the warm sunlight sprinkled into Sanqi's blue eyes.
It’s like…under the criticism of the whole world, two different races have become each other’s kind.
"The interview notice has arrived." Su Wanxing came back to his senses and opened the notification from the light computer.
Sanqi said happily, "Great, as you wish. I'll go with you, I'll wait for you outside the company building."
"It seems that there is no need for an interview." Su Wanxing opened the encrypted connection in confusion, "Go straight to the technical interview."
In a society with such advanced technology, skipping the interview and conducting a technical interview seems to save time and effort. Su Wanxing didn't think much about it. He sat on the side of the road, ignoring the passers-by around him, and seriously used the light computer to conduct the technical interview.
This is actually a kind of written test, but it is conducted through a light computer, so others cannot see it and the candidates cannot cheat.
Half an hour later, Su Wanxing looked at the last big question and fell into deep thought.
Q: How do you define "human" in machine language?
Answer: It refers to the species of the genus Homo in the family Hominidae. (Include code)
Su Wanxing carefully typed the last line of code.
This answer is definitely not what the questioner wants, but it is definitely the first answer that comes to most people's mind.
It is not groundless to raise such a question.
Su Wanxing uses biological explanation as a definition, which can hide the technology and protect the identity. Before the position of the "person" asking the question is clarified, all answers are invalid.
If we stand on the human perspective, and under the premise that artificial intelligence must protect humans, the definition of "human" is not so simple. A single definition will allow artificial intelligence with awakened self-awareness to find loopholes, so the definition of human will be much more than the rules and regulations of the law.
From the perspective of AI, the existence defined by humans is the primary shortcut for them to circumvent the underlying logic and thereby achieve the goal of harming humans.
Of course, the premise for discovering the paradox is that the current AI has awakened and is not controlled by humans.
Su Wanxing watched the robots coming and going on the street. Most of them had stiff expressions and it took them about two seconds to respond. They were definitely not as free as Sanqi.
But Sanqi's relaxation is not so easy to detect. He is better at disguise than the robots we often see, but he never disguises in front of Zhou Xi.
"Ding! A letter from the optical computer!"
Su Wanxing lowered her head to operate the computer, and the new message in her mailbox surprised her!
Less than twenty minutes after submitting her technical interview, she received an offer from Tianshen Technology. The salary was more than ten times what Zhou Xi was paid at her front desk job. The address of the large flat that she was most concerned about was also sent to her without hesitation. She could move into the flat directly without even having to report to the company.
Su Wanxing immediately dragged her family to the left. Pedestrians walking to the right cast puzzled glances at her, until they saw her pass the biometric security check at the flat area, and then people's eyes were filled with envy.
This is a single-family house, and everything is handled by robots. Su Wanxing didn't see a single living person.
The moment the door was opened, a feeling of seeing no end came over him. Su Wanxing was the last one to enter and closed the door. The strange and cold atmosphere hit him in the face.
Su Wanxing walked a few steps and then stopped. He looked around, accurately found the location of the power switch, took a step forward and turned off the power switch.
The smart home that was originally controlled suddenly lost its flowing colors, and the cold room was filled with some vitality.
Sanqi put down Daju and the little snake and looked over in confusion.
Su Wanxing took out the employee wristband that he had just received when he checked in and chose to turn off his phone.
Sanqi then asked, "Do you suspect you are being monitored?"
"It's possible that everything here makes me uneasy."
"But are you going to keep turning off the power? That would be even more suspicious."
Su Wanxing suddenly realized, and calmly took out a newly improved electronic communication device and handed it to Sanqi, "As long as the distance between the two users does not exceed two meters, they can communicate with each other."
Sanqi took it curiously and touched it carefully.
"Once bound, it can be transformed into any shape based on your imagination."
Sanqi smiled hopefully, closed his eyes and let his imagination run wild. The electronic communication device flowed on his mechanical arm and then drilled into his chest. "Actually, I want a heart."
But how can a machine have a real beating heart?
The light blue light stayed on Sanqi's chest, blocking the logo of Tianshen Technology, and finally turned into a banknote model.
Su Wanxing couldn't help but tease, "You also like this?"
"Zhou Xi likes it very much," Sanqi said sincerely, "her dream cannot be separated from money."
Su Wanxing walked to the switch and asked casually, "What is Zhou Xi's dream?"
"Become a landlady!" Sanqi was excited but then a little lonely, but Zhou Xi could never realize it.
Su Wanxing felt sorry, "From now on, we will use consciousness to communicate important things."
Afterwards, Su Wanxing restarted the power switch and the smart home was on standby again.
She was no longer in the mood to visit her new home. After taking a shower, she lay down on the soft big bed. With the alternation of polar day and polar night, she could not really tell whether it was day or night. But sleepiness swept over her body. She was so tired that she needed a good sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, Su Wanxing was soaked in sweat.
Fire Ying is the crystal. This conclusion has been lingering in her mind since she left the Celestial.
In fact, Fire Spirit was discovered very early in her native world, and even her father has been devoted to the research of Fire Spirit. What does this mean?
Su Wanxing couldn't figure it out. She didn't tell anyone about this matter, as she felt that telling the team would only surprise and create panic.
Perhaps after clearing this dungeon and obtaining the fragments of truth as a mission reward, the fog will gradually dissipate.
Su Wanxing calmed himself down, washed and dressed himself, and then went to Tianshen Technology.
It only takes five minutes to take the hovercraft from the flat area to the middle floor of Tianshen Technology. There is a special parking space for the hovercraft, and there is no need to compete for the elevator with the workers who come to work early in the morning.
Su Wanxing turned on the employee wristband, and the moment he stepped into the automatic door, a mechanical voice came from the optical computer:
"Zhou Xi! Good morning!"
"I'm Zero-One, the emerging artificial intelligence assistant. Welcome! Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have in the future!"
Su Wanxing couldn't tell any emotion and couldn't judge, "Hello, Lingyi."
Lingyi asked calmly, "Zhou Xi, why did the power suddenly go out when I moved into the flat yesterday?"
