That's how it normally works, but now that Jiang Yue has given us such a big gift, things are different. The entire interstellar spaceship industry, from upstream to downstream, can absorb most of the unemployed people.
I don't know what the government is thinking right now. At 3 PM, the official website opened the download channel for the AI Yutu, and also launched the pre-sale of smart glasses. Jiang Yue, with Bai Ze's cheat code, managed to snag four.
Before I could even speak, I heard Xuanxuan's wailing: "Aaaaah~, I didn't get a single pair of glasses! Mom, Dad, and Sister, did you manage to get any?"
"No, it's gone when we click on it."
"Ah~ Sister, how are things over there?"
"Don't worry, I just grabbed four, one for each of us is enough."
"Oh my god!!! Long live the sister! Let me see, let me see!"
Jiang Yue handed her phone to Xuanxuan. She, her parents, went to watch the news. Regarding the release of artificial intelligence, most people in our country have mixed feelings of approval and concern. People abroad are different. Some threaten us to open source it, while others don't believe it and say it's nonsense. There are all sorts of opinions.
This isn't over yet. Several countries have joined forces for another military exercise. It's always the same routine, but unfortunately, we don't fall for it. The Chang'e interstellar warship took off directly. Jiang Yue looked at the warship and saw that it was exactly the same as the one in the gift package. Many modules were missing; it was just a basic version, but it was still intimidating enough.
After the interstellar warships took off, no one dared to mention the military exercises anymore. The country also took this opportunity to announce that the people replaced by artificial intelligence would undergo secondary training and, after passing the training, would be transferred to the spaceship factory. Starting this year, we have officially entered the interstellar society. There will be no production line for the next few years, and there will be a severe shortage of people here. Once the spaceship production line is developed, we might not even need to go to work and could collect welfare benefits from home.
This incident ruined everyone's Mid-Autumn Festival. On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yutu was officially launched, and people all over the country were studying artificial intelligence. I watched the promotional video on the official website countless times. Unfortunately, many accessories are not available now, so it can only be used as a chat and learning tool.
However, smart cities have already begun construction. In order to absorb the surplus labor force, major cities across the country are carrying out the project simultaneously. Jiang's father's factory has been expanded several times over. The country provides interest-free loans and the government assists in purchasing production lines. Jiang's father has been so busy lately that he has not been able to go home. His original plan to travel during the National Day holiday has also been canceled.
The smart glasses arrived after a two-week wait. They have a strong sci-fi feel to them, and wearing them makes me feel like I'm in Deadpool's "Out of Control." The rendering looks a bit fake right now, but I expect it will look just like in the movie once the smart city is completed.
When Xuanxuan got home from school, the first thing she did was turn on her smart glasses. Some students at school had been wearing them to class today. She looked really cool when she was using them, but to others she looked silly. After all, it was a basic version of gesture-based assistance, like the patches in Jiang Yue's space, which allowed her to control things with her mind by simply sticking them on her temples.
However, once the first generation is released, the next generation is probably coming soon, but it cannot be released to the public yet. It should already be available in the military.
Xuanxuan was having a great time playing there. When Jiang's mother asked her to do her homework, she immediately tried to cheat using her smart glasses. Seeing that she was trying to slack off, Jiang Yue simply turned on the underage mode and told her to go watch Makka Pakka.
"Alright, go do your homework first. I've set a timer for you. It will be unlocked in an hour, and you can finish your homework in an hour."
"Ah~, I really want to go to university, why am I still a minor?"
Young man, go ask the adults if they want to grow up. You're so lucky but don't know it. And going to university? Going to university is probably not going to happen. Educational reforms are probably coming soon, and who knows how many years high school will take. Jiang Yue looked at Xuanxuan with ill intent. You want to graduate? You're dreaming.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yue's lips twitched. Her "gift package" still contained experience from previous worlds. In one world, people like her who had just graduated were all pulled back to study again. Oh my god, she hoped this world wouldn't follow the experience of that world, otherwise she would have to go back to school too.
Jiang Yue pulled Bai Ze aside to take a look. Fortunately, accounting wasn't included. Most of those pulled back were science majors. After looking through them, Jiang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to go back to school. To her, going back would be a waste of time. She already knew all that stuff. In a few decades, when people in this world had digested the existing knowledge, the new knowledge that would emerge would be what she should learn.
Now that the country has laid its cards on the table, will the career challenge program continue? Will there be any changes, such as introducing new job positions? Jiang Yue thought of this and went to check. The program team had previously issued an announcement that 50 more people would be added to challenge new positions. It seems that the country has also thought of this and is showing it off so that those who are still hesitating can make up their minds.
The country is changing every moment, but people still live their lives as usual. In the Jiang family, Dad Jiang is learning how to do business, Mom Jiang is still taking care of the family as before, and Jiang Yue spends her days reading books, drinking tea and appreciating flowers. Occasionally, she will do a live broadcast when she feels like it. Just as Jiang Yue guessed, Xuanxuan became one of the first beneficiaries of the education reform.
The study time in high school has been extended considerably, but it's not as stressful as before. There's no pressure to get into a good school, so you can study in peace. To be honest, with AI assistance, as long as you're willing, you can basically learn something. Recently, Jiang Yue has started learning from Xuanxuan. Because Jiang's mom is relatively free and Jiang Yue is getting older, if she doesn't study, she'll have to start her blind date life.
Several months passed uneventfully. Towards the end of the year, gene therapy and medical pods were released simultaneously. The sensation caused by these two items was even greater than that of a starship. Families with seriously ill patients and artificial intelligence were given priority to use the medical pods. Only after all the serious illnesses had been treated were appointments for physical examinations opened up.
Jiang Yue didn't cheat in the AI-generated random number allocation. She had already taken care of her family members' health before, so she wasn't in a hurry to go. She figured it would depend on luck. However, the country had made thorough preparations. Before the Lunar New Year, almost everyone in the country had received gene therapy, except for death row inmates and those convicted of serious crimes.
After the gene injection, Jiang's mother was no longer in a hurry to find Jiang Yue a partner. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they would live a long time and be able to accompany her for a long time. Jiang Yue and Xuanxuan also saw Jiang's father's youthful appearance. No wonder Jiang's mother had taken a liking to him in the first place, and no wonder Jiang Yue and Xuanxuan were both good-looking. It turned out that it was inherited.
Jiang Yue's grandparents and maternal grandparents were fortunate to live to see such a time. After receiving the drug, they were able to live for several more decades. Foreign countries were extremely envious of the gene therapy and medical pods. The country used these two items to exchange for a lot of resources, especially rare metals needed to build spaceships.
