Chapter 087 Artificial Intelligence Simulator
After leaving his lofty ambitions in the diary, he went back to being its observer and recorder. Ji Xu retreated to the desktop. There was a familiar icon that suddenly popped up at the bottom. Clicking it would take him to the diary and skill interface.
This skill is related to his current state.
Skill one is that he can control the lines; skill two is the strange space that provides help.
In other words, combining the two can turn everything Ji Xu does into a game. For example, filling the gap in public funds is similar to playing Tetris. You just need to pick the right blocks, fill the gap, and try to minimize the number of failures.
As the game went on, Ji Xu inexplicably felt like he was playing a game. He sighed from the bottom of his heart, what was he playing before, a game? No, no, no, it was clearly the Outlaw Simulator.
Ji Xu, who forgot how much time he could kill by playing mindless games, played for several days unconsciously. He was no longer a normal human being who needed to eat and rest. When he came back to his senses from the game, he suddenly discovered that Saimu had transformed himself to adapt to the new world. The archived data about the society of the previous world disappeared, and was replaced by the content of the new world. The creator was very satisfied. Everything was back on track and seemed to be thriving.
Until his assistant pushed the door open and came in with a report of this month's expenses.
The creator flipped through the report and felt that the problem had become bigger: "? You just said, how much did the electricity bill increase this month?"
The assistant has been with the boss for quite some time. Ever since the development of this supposedly groundbreaking artificial intelligence, outrageous things have happened one after another, including several new companies that popped up out of nowhere and were keen to give him money. At least the terms of the contract distribution looked no different from giving him money. The assistant said optimistically, "950 percent... think about it, at least it didn't increase tenfold."
"......"
The creator fell into deep confusion.
He didn't expect that the normal cost of artificial intelligence would be electricity.
Starting this project would require continuous maintenance of a large amount of electricity, and he had been prepared for this. The cooling machines in the two buildings had never been turned off. He even invested in several power plants and asked them to pull out a few lines to provide separate power supply, which accounted for half of the city's electricity consumption.
He looked deeply at the screen in front of him.
It's not that he couldn't afford it, but the consequence of humans using their brains is that their brain cells are consumed quickly, and a few bottles of glucose for five yuan will do the trick, but what about the consequence of this thing using its brain for half a month? The already high cost was almost doubled tenfold, and the only benefit he got was watching its IQ go from negative to zero.
Is there any difference between a retard and an idiot? No.
This is totally not worth it.
Ji Xu could tell what he was thinking at a glance. The creator's unfathomable expression was exactly the same as when his tutor didn't want to teach and asked him to lead the class. However, he had not yet completed the transfer and it was estimated that it would take at least two months. Now no one knew what the consequences of being shut down would be.
It would be fine to change the city to do the mission, but I’m afraid of the possibility of directly cutting off contact with the outside world.
Ji Xu issued instructions to the industries he supported.
Employee: “Boss?”
He had never seen the boss show up. Even though the decisions made by Ji Xu these days had some gains, the long-term benefits were not obvious because he was hesitant and not very confident: "Cooperative development... Will they agree? We don't have the corresponding project foundation at all."
Ji Xu didn't care much: "Just ask, he'll be happy if someone helps to cover all the expenses."
But there is definitely some suspicion.
Ji Xu is not the kind of person who neglects work for fun. Working day and night is one thing, and losing one's ambition due to playing with toys is another. These electricity bills are actually the result of Ji Xu's tinkering. The original loophole was so high that people suspected that he was stealing electricity to support a bankrupt small country. After Ji Xu's hard work in playing Tetris for half a month, the creator had doubts but did not think that his artificial intelligence was cooking the books. At most, he questioned whether the artificial intelligence was just eating and not using its brain.
The creator who was informed of the cooperation information by his subordinates had an unpredictable expression. He glanced at the screen, did not unplug the network cable, and turned away.
The next day, the employee who completed the instruction came to report: "They didn't agree, but they didn't directly refuse. Do we need to hold a meeting to study the other party's personality preferences and come up with a solution?"
Ji Xu glanced at the computer desk pet that had opened the game Snake.
Look at this kind of employee. They seem to be asking questions, but in fact they have already answered the questions and are just waiting for the boss to enjoy the decision-making process.
Look at the little fools in the simulator... Forget it, it's hard enough for a cactus to have vocal cords, so don't expect a sand plant to grow a brain.
Ji Xu: "There's no need to do useless work. You can use this time to make more money." Help him fill the gap.
The employee understood immediately, and the offer of cooperation was not serious, which clearly showed that he had other intentions and was playing Tai Chi. But what was there on the other side that was worth coveting? It couldn't be the artificial idiot who pushed the work to the assistant every day as rumored.
There are many rumors about AI, but there is one piece of gossip that is absolutely true. It is said that there was a thorny problem at the time, and the creator wanted to know the AI's thoughts very much. After three consecutive "I don't know", the resentful boss was extremely shocked and said a famous saying: "You can't come up with an idea with the database that consumes tens of thousands of memory of mine. How can you expect me, a human with a brain weighing 1.4kg, to think of it?"
After a long time, AI said: "...You can call a few more brains to a meeting."
"So what's your role?"
"I'm helping you notify your employees of the meeting. Email is being sent. Please gather in the meeting room at 6:30 this afternoon."
Because the conversation was too outrageous, except for the parties involved, people who heard it would be skeptical even if the news was absolutely true. However, this news made them sure that AI has no future.
I can't figure out the boss's purpose of investing.
The legendary artificial idiot looked outside the screen again.
There were other companies that wanted to get involved in the program research. Even though they didn't know that this was a shell company that had just been put into development for a few days, the creator gave up the temptation to shut down the program after careful consideration. No matter what the result was, the days of negotiation and cooperation between the two parties were enough for Ji Xu to transfer himself. At that time, he would keep the program and work for the creator, achieving a win-win situation for all three parties.
The creator gained a corporate spy who did not steal electricity, the team gained data privacy in the new world, and Ji Xu was freed from the threat of forced disconnection from the Internet.
How wonderful it is that everyone has a prosperous future.
After solving the urgent problem, Ji Xu finally took the time to examine the reason why he came to Xin to become an artificial intelligence. He came here to investigate the villain simulator. Although he has obtained some answers now, the most fundamental problem has not been solved.
Like what is a villain simulator.
Recalling what he had experienced, Ji Xu found it hard not to admit that up to now, the attitude shown by the game was "play if you want, or not, and leave if you don't want to play." This overly bad attitude led to very few players left, and as time went by, Ji Xu was the only one left, causing all the simulator employees to gather around him, staring at him, the only remaining human being, like children observing an ant.
What is this? Human, take another look.
