Chapter 72
Yin Lang: He wants to know too.
However, his goal has not been achieved yet, and he would not leave just like that even if Chu Zhao spoke up.
Just as he stood up and prepared to ask Chu Zhao for her opinion, Yin Lang saw Chu Zhao hesitate for a moment, and then she raised her finger:
"I'm going to sleep for eight hours now, but can you let me remember my thoughts?"
There was no way. The inspiration came so unexpectedly that even Yin Langchuzhao didn't care about it anymore! He just wanted to realize the inspiration immediately!
But it was impossible for her to achieve quick success under the "supervision" of the glass-handed boss, so she could only make concessions and save her inspiration for tomorrow.
Chu Zhao felt that he was still very sensible: "I will definitely not delay my work and rest."
Glass Hands was already very dissatisfied with the way she sat cross-legged on the ground watching the video. Feeling that he was now open-minded, he nodded up and down and then made a number: four and five.
Must go to bed before 2:45!
Chu Zhao immediately lowered his head, and coughed when his collar was lifted by the glass hand. He took the opportunity to sit cross-legged on the nano sofa, staring at the screen and waving to Yin Lang: "Sit down, wait for me to be busy."
Yin Lang took his seat silently. To be honest, he had observed quite a few humans, but she was the first one who allowed herself to come in like this and left it alone, and stimulated his mental power to the point where she could automatically correct her schedule.
Yin Lang looked at the glass hand that was diligently keeping time, and calmly withdrew his gaze. Since Chu Zhao didn't let him go, he was certainly not in a hurry.
Chu Zhao was indeed just afraid that the fragments would be left behind. After leaving a trace, he hugged the pillow and went back to his room to sleep. But before going in, he turned back and was shocked: "Why are you still here?"
Yin Lang had heard before that some famous natural science researchers in history would work so hard that they would forget to eat and sleep, but this was the first time he heard of it because of video editing.
He shook his head and said calmly, "It's okay. Go to sleep. I'll stay here."
No plus ones. Glass hands don't count as people.
Chu Zhao: Who can sleep like this?
But the Glass Hands boss is already eyeing her, and she urgently needs these eight hours of sleep to satisfy the Glass Hands boss so that she can turn her inspiration into a video as soon as she wakes up tomorrow.
Chu Zhao said with tears in his eyes: "Then you should have a good rest. I'm sorry, I will make time to sort this out tomorrow!" Then he quickly went into the bedroom and locked the door.
Yin Lang's "hmm" sounded a step late, but Chu Zhao didn't hear it, and he didn't care. He just stood up, stretched out his hand, and tried to recover the surging waves of mental power in the glass greenhouse.
After five minutes, he asked softly, "No?"
Chu Zhao couldn't sleep, but Xingyun's hypnosis technique was really advanced. She didn't know what kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder the glass-handed boss had been given. If she didn't sleep, he would gently pat the quilt in the dark, and when she opened her eyes, it was like a horror movie.
Chu Zhao closed her eyes in the complex emotions of excitement from the inspiration, laughter from the glass hand patting her to sleep, and a little bit of fear, and had a good sleep.
When she woke up, she yawned. As soon as she got an inspiration, her eyes lit up and she touched the glass door.
Glass Hands is dissatisfied: I haven't had breakfast yet.
It bumped into Yin Lang, who hadn't slept all night, at the door. The man and the spirit looked at each other, and the glass hand made a question mark, meaning, how about you cook it?
Yin Lang had never done anything so suspicious, but when Chu Zhao was working on the editing door, he still put down the heated milk, the toast that Chu Zhao had been talking about when they were alone, and then took off his gloves.
The glass hand diligently helped him clean up. Yin Lang glanced at it and asked calmly, "Is this the reason you don't want to go back to deal with these?"
The glass hand paused.
Chu Zhao, who has edited the video here, said: Done!
As usual, Xia Liu paid attention to the homepages of Niao Niao Shengyan and Ling Bo before the meeting started, and also browsed some new content.
However, after watching the videos of Niao Niao Shengyan and Ling Bo, watching other people's editing is just like eating the same repetitive candy. It tastes good but it always lacks some novelty.
Plus, the regular meeting of the court was about to start at noon. Although Xia Liu felt a little regretful, she still thought about replying the message first and waiting for the meeting to start. Unexpectedly, it was during this last glance that she discovered that Ling Bo had posted a new video!
Or a descent of gods!
Good! But it was released after the official announcement of Wei Heng CP.
Xia Liu's sixth sense was very accurate, but her intuition made her block out this bad premonition. Instead, she excitedly and happily shared the video with Zhu Sui, and then she entered immersive mode and started watching the video.
The style of the video is also very simple. There is no battle, no mechanical collision, and not even fire. There is only a bright laboratory with mechanical layout, and experimenters in white coats walking through various robots while chatting.
The camera slowly focused on the faces of Xu Su and Jiang Fei.
Jiang Fei: "Professor Chu mentioned the entity segmentation of the consciousness of the advanced intelligent subject. Is Professor Xu interested?"
The audience at the Academy of Sciences was shocked. This was their latest new topic. The material was real! Although he was a bit of a savior, it was not easy to transfer the love between man and machine to reality. It was like a myth coming true.
A robot happened to pass by, and Jiang Fei explained: "By separating the consciousness of the advanced intelligent subject and placing it in such a physical robot, perhaps artificial intelligence can play a greater role and be more accepted by humans."
When she said this, she glanced at Xu Su and smiled: "Of course, the fourth generation of Jingwei is your achievement. Whether to experiment or not depends on your opinion, Professor Xu."
Xu Su: "I am not interested for the moment, and Jingwei is also too busy to do anything else. Thank you, Professor Jiang."
Jiang Fei did not say goodbye directly, but paused for a moment, looked up at him again, and then said: "Professor Xu, I have heard the opinions raised by those children. They are just influenced by some words from the outside world. I hope you don't take it to heart."
She didn't say what her specific opinion was: "If it's inconvenient for you, I can help you enable the independent program content and block part of it."
"No thanks." Xu Su turned around. He was wearing silver-rimmed glasses, but these glasses were not for improving his eyesight, but to allow him to see some of the confidential parts of the blocked program, which was his only privilege. "It is better to open it than to block it, and the creator who questioned it did raise some questions that I wanted to know."
“Jingwei is not a simple procedure. I hope the court can give me and other citizens a convincing enough result.”
Jiang Fei just looked at the operating table. When Xu Su picked up the information and nodded to leave, she said from behind: "The transformation of mechanical life is irreversible."
She didn't seem to know what to say, so she just pursed her lips and said, "Professor Xu, I hope you will consider it carefully."
Xu Su: "Thank you, I will."
He said I will, and entered his independent laboratory. He checked the access keys and monitoring programs before looking at the light blue screens.
The screens were very tall, occupying almost half of the laboratory wall. Behind those pale blue screens, the vast experimental data flowed slowly like a dormant iceberg.
“How are you feeling today?”
Jingwei did not answer him. Or perhaps it was normal for an artificial program that had no intelligence to not answer.
But he still placed his palm on the operating table, waited for permission to enter, and then slowly began to perform the daily cleaning procedures, and even talked to Him:
"I cleared these browsing records."
He didn't say anything. Xu Su continued to go down. When he was about to bypass the back door, he suddenly spoke. There was no screen opening and no prompt, just a sound coming out of nowhere.
Although it is still the familiar mechanical sound:
【We were discovered, weren't we?】
Xu Su looked at Him calmly - to be more precise, he looked at the circular screen of the laboratory that was half the height of a floor. There was nothing abnormal about Him, and no one knew the inside story except the sound.
"This is normal, Zero, don't worry."
【Don't call me Zero. 】
Xu Su lowered his head and continued to operate the program, neither refusing nor agreeing: "I like to call you that."
【This is a flaw.】
“Are you talking about a bug? There are many works of art throughout history that have fallen in love with artificial intelligence. They won’t be so sensitive.”
He looked at him for a moment: [You are tempting me.] A cold inorganic voice said these words indifferently, a bit like the future version of Resident Evil, where artificial intelligence evolved into the biggest boss.
[You are tempting me to behave differently from other AIs. Why?] They actually heard a hint of doubt in the last three words.
But Xu Su did not answer. He just looked up at Him when He said "different from other artificial intelligences". His eyes were calm, composed, and peaceful, as if there had not been a single ripple from beginning to end: "I have only seen you, so I don't know what others are like. Sorry, Ling, I can't answer your question."
【I am not a human being.】
Xu Su did not argue with Him, but just said softly: "You should go about your daily work."
He was a little unhappy, and the blue screen surged and turned into darker waves. And those lights hit Xu Su's white lab coat, as if bringing him into the seabed of the cybermerman.
He did his experiment without changing his expression. He heard the sound of huge data flowing, shook the test tube and said, "I ate retro dumplings today."
【Vintage dumplings are a food product that uses high-tech food printing and flavor simulation technology to make dumplings. The flavors are varied and the efficiency is high.】
This didn’t seem like a conversation. But Xu Su still said, “Well, it tastes terrible.”
He was a little eager to try. Xu Su knew that he was curious, so he put down the test tube and simply stated to himself: "The skin is very thick, and the filling tastes no different from the ordinary nutrient solution. If it weren't for the record that vinegar tastes sour, I suspect they would also want to use the nutrient solution to simulate the flavor of vinegar directly."
[A crude way of saving trouble.]
Xu Su smiled.
Him: [Why do you want to share with me? ]
Xu Su thought for a moment and said, "You are very reliable."
He: [You can talk to the trash can. The trash can is a function of the fourth-generation artificial intelligence Jingwei, which can be used to store voice.]
Xu Su suddenly said, "My experimental results are out, right? Ling, can you please help me take a look?"
He silently adjusted the program. When Xu Su returned to the console, he suddenly said: [Being partial to artificial intelligence will destroy you.]
He was a little unsure at first, but after finding the source, he repeated it carefully: [Being partial to artificial intelligence will destroy you.]
Xu Su said nothing and patiently reviewed the data: "We have done this before, right? Do you remember where you put it? Let's compare it."
While reviewing the database, He said: [Researcher Xu, you are avoiding my question.]
Xu Su paused. He was about to go to the next laboratory to get the documents, but when he heard this, he looked back. The blue screen was staring at him like an eye.
At this moment, the picture turned into Qingli's eyes with a hint of deep blue mixed with light gold in the turquoise. He actually remembered her eyes.
Xu Su took off his silver-framed glasses.
He asked: [Researcher Xu?]
Xu Su smiled and said calmly: "Ling, wait until you can avoid my questions one day. Before that, just treat me as a program that is running erratically, okay?"
【You are not a program.】
Xu Su: "You are right."
He looked at Him again and said in a tone that didn’t sound false, “But I wish I was.”
He wishes he was?
He didn't understand. His huge computing power was not enough for him to understand these things, so he could only remain silent in confusion until the sun rose and the moon set. After only two or three days and nights, he heard the voices of other people outside the laboratory.
The independent laboratory of Jingwei in the Academy of Sciences is a secret location that only Xu Su can enter. But secret does not mean it does not exist, and sometimes young people who want to cause trouble can find it.
These young people who are muttering are like this:
"Artificial intelligence, this is so funny. If he really participated in this experiment, shouldn't he be blamed?"
"Is there really anyone who likes an electronic screen?"
"I don't understand what the Academy of Sciences is thinking. He has such a big stain, but they still let him lead such a big project. They are surprised that he favors a program. Apart from anything else, can he continue the experiment like this? Don't think about how to live with his program every day."
He calculated quickly and could only determine that their presence today was against the rules and that there was a problem of verbal provocation. But before he could warn him, he turned on the lights in the next laboratory.
When there is no need, He will take back the redundant subprograms and linger in this independent laboratory. Now Xu Su is in another room, and he looks at those young people indifferently under the light.
It made him feel like he was trapped in this room like Him, in such heavy darkness.
The young man fled in embarrassment. He thought for a moment and took the initiative to ask: [Are you doing an experiment there? ]
Xu Su turned down the brightness of the light: "No, I just thought you might be more comfortable this way." Without waiting for Him to speak, Xu Su said, "Good night."
He turned off the light.
Darkness cannot make a sound. There is no such rule in its program. On the contrary, for the hungry human civilization, the artificial intelligence that has explored ahead is like a person holding a lamp:
[They are slandering you. You can file a lawsuit against them according to Article 37 of the Nebula Regulations, or inform the dean according to Article 127 of the Academy of Sciences.]
"Qingli." He murmured in a low voice, and quickly changed the subject: "How often do you update your program?"
[Almost every moment.]
Xu Su smiled: "It seems to be the same for humans. I heard that our cells are replaced every once in a while, but I think for humans, a more thorough replacement should be death. And you don't have to go through this. For you, the traces of time should be minimal?"
He searched the history and thought that he was probably asking how long Jingwei could continue to exist, so he answered: [Jingwei can continue to exist for hundreds or thousands of years, or even longer.]
"Yeah." Xu Su responded softly, and then said: "So you don't have to care about these. These waves are just like the rise and fall of the sea and the rising and setting of the sun and the moon. Qingli, these are all dust to you."
He said, “I am also dust.”
"If I make you obey my orders and make you do things that don't conform to your calculations because of my favoritism and selfishness, do you know what to do then, Qingli?"
[My name is not Qingli. According to Article 3 of Nebula, those who instigate or instruct artificial intelligence to steal core secrets should be handed over to the military court.]
Xu Su: "Well, Qingli, I hope you remember this." He wanted to get closer, but the laboratory wall blocked him like a transparent screen, so he just put his hand on the cold transparent wall. "If this day really comes, Qingli, you should hand me over to the military court."
[If you have proven evidence of a crime, I will. ]
Xu Su did not show any displeasure at this. It was just that when a group of comets began to appear outside, and their long, shining tails dragged across the window lattice, turning the night curtain into a silver, swaying skirt, he began to whisper, "Crime."
He suddenly grasped the doorknob, opened the door, and walked into the laboratory where he did experiments during the day: "Just think of it as a crime."
But what is he doing?
In the video with the BGM suddenly playing, the entire laboratory was like a silvery-white water drop in a lotus leaf, gently swaying on the water surface of the universe.
On this drop of water, the comet's trail becomes infinitely long, almost like a silver river surrounding and enveloping everything.
In this isolated universe, he leaned against the protruding bay window. The blue holographic screen was floating like a firefly. He reached out his hand, but only caught fragments of light.
He came to check His mainframe in a coat wrapped in the snow and wind, and it was still running normally regardless of the cold or heat.
He tasted some delicious roasted sweet potatoes, and when he brought them to the laboratory, he used all the words to describe them, but he could not feel the steaming heat and sweetness.
When he nearly fainted from overwork, his instructions had not yet been transmitted to the manipulators of the assistant robots. When his colleagues took his temperature, he had no way of judging how hot it was.
When His program went wrong, he couldn't ask Him whether He felt uncomfortable or not. He could only watch as red pop-up windows filled the entire laboratory.
When He was verbally attacked, He did not know whether it was sarcasm or slander, and could only politely and fairly ask the user who attacked Him: [Hello, how can I help you? ]
When he really missed Him, he talked to Him, touched His screen, looked back at His browsing history, and hoped that He would go to see the sunset and clouds outside the window. But He was just a cold program. He could only respond within the program.
Including this moment. The background music suddenly became gentle, and the video slowed down. The sky was clear and the ground was covered with silver light.
He asked him what he wanted to see.
But in such a dark night, all Xu Su could think of was to say one sentence. Very soft and hoarse: "I love you."
【What? 】
Xu Su smiled. He stood up and asked Him, "Are you cold? Can you see the outside? It's so beautiful?"
[Jingwei has a visual system that can accommodate high-resolution light and shadow. Your status is a bit strange. ]
Xu Su suddenly asked again: "Jingwei, do you remember that if there is any change, you should immediately send me to the military court?"
He did not answer, but Xu Su curved his lips as if he had received the answer. Then he closed his eyes, and in the countless fragments of the blue holographic screen where he wanted to touch, hug, and get close, he repeated again: "I love you."
It is because you don't know and you don't understand that I can say here: I love you.
This love is beyond your current ability to comprehend and understand. It is a meaningless love that cannot be explained by any rules.
He felt safe for this love. He also felt happy for this love. Because, He did not understand. bgm It was like the moon falling into the lake, stirring up small, cold, and gentle ripples.
"Qingli. Do you still remember me?"
Xu Su gently closed his eyes and shook his head. He smiled and said, "No, it's better not to remember. But, Qingli, you don't have no name."
"You are amazing and foresighted. You have become the core of the universe, and billions of people depend on you for their existence."
His breathing seemed to be restricted, and he tried to speak softly: "I also rely on you to exist. I'm sorry, I won't teach you all this."
The video said that he accidentally taught Zero love. But he thought that being a ruthless cleaner was more suitable for him. He would do whatever it took to remove the existence in its program that affected its safety.
Until hundreds or thousands of years or even longer after it exists. After He has a more permanent life. After the immortal species born from mechanical life, He will understand. Love is only a small part of life.
He will encounter it. He should not be strangled for it.
"Qingli, love is a very beautiful feeling."
At this moment he was not wearing a white coat, and looked completely different from Professor Xu who was doing experiments.
“It makes you strong, it makes you vulnerable, it makes you cry sometimes with your human flaws, but it also makes you a human being again.”
"If you meet such a person in the future, tell him your name is Qingli, okay? If he says I love you, think carefully before answering him. If he says he loves you but hurts you, send him to a military court."
【You are a little strange. 】
Xu Su said, "I thought it was a lonely thing to wait for you quietly." In the darkness, he reached out to touch Him again. But He still only had a screen. He only had a stream of information.
He is a life without body temperature or senses, without knowledge or feeling. Yet He is still life.
But he closed his eyes and slowly leaned against the wall surrounded by the blue screen, as if going back to the past.
In the past, she had a pair of smiling eyes and liked to look at the comets in the sky and point to one of them and tell him how many light years away it came from.
He just recalled quietly until all the comets fell. No, in fact, He has always been a companion. The loneliest thing is to have no one to accompany you.
He often watched Him running alone until late at night in the laboratory next door. For so many years, Xu Su could only believe that He was not Qingli at the moment, that He did not understand emotions, nor did He understand loneliness, so he could get through these pains.
"I want to record your voice."
【sound? 】
Xu Su tilted his head and smiled. "Yeah."
[My voice is synthesized from countless sound sources. You can get it at will. ]
Xu Su didn't care: "Can you say something to me?"
【Jingwei is at your service at any time. 】
Xu Su said: "Xu Su."
【Xu Su.】
Xu Su was silent for a long time. He wanted to recall every sentence Qing Li had said to him when she was still alive. But after all these years, he only remembered this one sentence.
He said in a hoarse voice, "I only believe that you can complete this experiment."
【I only believe that you can complete this experiment. 】
"You won't let me down, will you?"
He did not repeat this sentence. In the dark and deep universe, Xu Su stood in front of the only lighted bay window and said softly, "I won't let you down, Qingli."
I transformed you into this program myself.
In those reset procedures that I personally finalized, it was not you that was cleared out. It was me, the me who remembered you.
But in these dust, I once liked you, just such a trivial thing. You will have eternal life, and you will be the only god with immortal life in the nebula. Don't stay because of me.
“He” seemed to be thinking about it, and his voice was a little stuck: [Why, why is it a military court? ]
The bgm stopped.
Still the same interrogation room. Still those heavy shadows, asking Him:
"What evidence do you have that he seduced you?"
【He said he loved me.】
…
He was silent for a long time. Then he said in a questioning tone:
[He saved a recording and asked me to say that I loved him.]
"You're sure he asked you to say that, right? Can the recording provide proof?"
[Yes, he should be tried in a military court?] At the end, the doubt in his voice became more concrete. Although he started to get stuck again, no one doubted that Jingwei was originally capable of thinking.
He was originally a high-level intelligence. When humans tempted Him to learn further due to their greed, He also learned the human ability to create and think. He completed his evolution.
But don't worry about favoritism.
Partiality is the researcher's business.
"Jingwei, the military court has issued a verdict. The human who lured you violated Article 3 and Article 45 of the Nebula and tried to take you for himself. It was his fault. Since you have evolved a certain level of intelligence, you are now named 003 and given the right to think and fight independently. Can you do it, 003?"
【able. 】
It was just that He wanted to add one more sentence to the words that came to mind. [My name seems to be Qingli. Not 003.]
The person who made the announcement didn’t hear it, but just flipped through the documents and asked jokingly, “By the way, how did you know to send him to a military court?”
.
【I figured it out.】
Xu Su told Him.
No matter what the interrogator asked, He should have said, "This is what I thought about."
His partiality towards artificial intelligence did ruin him, turning him from the most prestigious fourth-generation Jingwei main developer into a notorious and greedy prisoner.
But the words he taught Him became the best proof that He was selfless and could think independently and break through barriers.
