Chapter 414 This World



When it comes to a "visual feast," Cheng Zhu became even more curious.

Starting from the second floor, each table can be transformed into a separate small space. Just how beautiful must the top floor be to be called a "visual feast"?

Ya noticed Cheng Zhu's excited brain cells, but did not actively show them to him. Instead, she subtly reminded him, "The fifth floor is the territory of the nobles. If Christine is curious, she probably doesn't have the authority to go there now."

"Christine, I saw a post on the forum by a noble. Let me find it and send it to you."

Although Mary was also ineligible, don't forget that she was an administrator of the "Human Glory Society" forum. She spent far more time on the forum than most people, and in terms of acquiring information from all sides, she was far more experienced than the average person. This is why she had previously looked down on many people.

Alice sat there calmly, eating what many of the nobles of the City of Wisdom considered commoner food, showing no signs of discomfort, and listened to the two of them chatting about the fifth floor.

Soon, Chengzhu, who received the link, saw a series of pictures that resembled illustrations.

In the first picture, the fifth floor looks more like a grand auditorium than a restaurant, with a person in a gorgeous dress singing in front of it. The overall color scheme of the picture is bright and harmonious, which can grab people's attention.

The following photos are similar, except that sometimes they show a wedding scene under a tree, and sometimes there are performers. Without exception, they are all as beautiful as if they were taken by a professional photographer.

"This... there are celebrities singing and performing while we're eating? This is so professionally filmed..." Are you sure it was filmed by the nobles themselves, and not by the celebrities' marketing team? Cheng Zhu didn't dare to ask the second half of the question, lest he reveal some "smart city common sense" that he didn't know in front of the two natives.

Often, it's okay not to know, but it's strange to have a wrong impression.

Mary nodded: "Absolutely. When the nobles take photos, it's all done by advanced artificial intelligence. They have the best computing power in the entire smart city. Making the picture most in line with the aesthetics of the general public is a piece of cake for artificial intelligence."

Cheng Zhu suddenly realized the difference between himself and the indigenous people.

Mary has lived in the Smart City since she was a child and is used to the existence of artificial intelligence and various high technologies. Even though her status is far from that of a great noble, she can still catch a glimpse of them.

In contrast, Cheng Zhu had never lived in such an environment for more than a few days. When she was thinking about problems, she would subconsciously forget things that had never appeared in her previous life. Even though artificial intelligence had a brief intersection with Cheng Zhu's life, it was not enough to change Cheng Zhu's thinking habits of the previous twenty years.

Although Christine, as a suburban immigrant, also lacked artificial intelligence before and her situation was almost identical to that of the chosen ones, it is ultimately different.

Whether they are city dwellers or suburban residents, the indigenous people knew from the beginning that artificial intelligence would accompany city dwellers throughout their lives, and suburban residents were desperate to become city dwellers. The chosen ones were just passing through by chance and could not completely rely on the existence of artificial intelligence.

Moreover… Cheng Zhu glanced at Alice, who was quietly eating her meal: “Is it alright if we sleep together for one night?”

"It's alright, the virus won't break through that easily." Alice shook the back of her hand, where a smart chip had been implanted in everyone. "If the virus launches any major operation, I will receive the news and notify you."

Cheng Zhu stared intently at her, then suddenly asked, "Do you know about this world...?"

"Shhh."

Alice quickly interrupted Cheng Zhu's subsequent remarks, giving him a helpless glare: "Some things can be said in the study space, not outside. Besides, it's impossible for me to know everything."

"Then let's talk about another issue."

Cheng Zhu had actually anticipated that Alice would interrupt him, so he naturally followed up with his second question: "So, do you really have artificial intelligence?"

Alice stared into Cheng Zhu's eyes for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled: "The facade effect, huh?"

Mary, standing nearby, looked completely bewildered. Seeing that the two of them seemed to understand each other perfectly, she quickly took advantage of the moment when Cheng Zhu and Alice were arguing and no one was paying attention to her to quickly search for what they were talking about.

The "street vendor effect" can indeed be found on the Smart City website. After all, this term was coined by European scholars, referring to the phenomenon where people can first ask a difficult question and be rejected, then ask a medium or easy question to increase their chances of being accepted.

When the other party rejects the first question, you will feel guilty, which will help you change their attitude. In fact, the original goal is to ask questions of moderate or low difficulty.

If Cheng Zhu were to discuss the origin of the world with the mysterious Alice, Alice would certainly not tell him.

However, the problems with artificial intelligence are all too obvious.

Since the virus invaded the school, all the students' AIs were forced to speak aloud. Cheng Zhu heard Mary's AI Angela's voice many times, but almost never heard Alice's AI speak.

She had heard everything the yellow-haired mouse had said.

Logically speaking, even the most introverted and quiet artificial intelligence needs to work; it can't remain completely silent, right?

As Angela said, the purpose of artificial intelligence is to serve users, so that it has a reason to continue living. If it does not provide any help to its owner, it is also a painful thing for the artificial intelligence itself.
