"What on earth..."
In a room with four walls made of metal, on a giant light and shadow screen, the white numbers 0 and 1 were constantly changing in the green and black grids. Next to it, the fully mechanical AI12 stood quietly.
In front of Wei.
During the period of cooperation with the AIs, Hathaway gradually felt that something was wrong. She slowed down her work. She could learn everything by finding X. This sense of dissonance always troubled Hathaway every day.
It has been possible to determine the location of
Nowadays, it has evolved to a very terrible point, and its computing power has become astonishingly powerful.
"Lord Hathaway, please believe us!"
AI12 said, but Hathaway's body moved. She would not believe what a bunch of data said.
"Believe? That's how people connect."
AI12 raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked like he was smiling, but this smile was a bit creepy.
During this period of time, Hathaway used the technology in her hands and browsed most things with the help of AI. At first she was surprised, but then she felt helpless. AIs were developed by the gods of Brilliant City for the mechanized era.
It was created as a program to serve the mechanized era, but now the AI ​​in front of us has gradually acquired its own consciousness.
Perhaps this cannot be called self-awareness, but a program function similar to self-awareness. It is more appropriate to call it a self-protection function. Hathaway's head is very confused now. She does not want to continue to assist these AIs, because with the browsing
As more and more information came to hand, Hathaway felt more and more horrified, especially the fantasy technological products that were generated by AI through big data and could not yet be put into practice.
Especially the technology of biological genes. Hathaway didn't understand this aspect, but she always felt uneasy. Hathaway asked the AIs what these genetically improved crops were, but the AIs couldn't answer.
Because he needed permission to unlock it, Hathaway tried to crack it, but failed. Nowadays, AI can help X without telling Congress because AI already has the function of self-protection.
AIs have gradually understood the meaning of self-protection. This is because AIs all have a death source code, which is a program function that can eliminate them at any time. Therefore, if AIs want to protect themselves from being eliminated, they can only expand and extend.
This is what Hathaway saw in the programming language. Everything seems logical, but in fact it is not. There must be a beginning. How do AIs give birth to themselves? This is something Hathaway has always wondered about.
Not sure.
Her head was filled with everything she remembered before she fell into coma, but as Hathaway's body gradually recovered, these memories began to feel inconsistent. This feeling made Hathaway very distressed at this time, especially
That X, what exactly is going on?
Hathaway has been in this underground facility for a long time. It is like a huge underground iron box. Although Hathaway is not familiar with material chemistry, he also knows that the materials used in this underground facility are not familiar to Hathaway.
Any kind of material, that is to say, this kind of metal is not available in Bright City.
Hathaway stared quietly at the AI12 in front of her. She had entered self-sleep. A faint light blue light flashed in her eyes. Hathaway stood up and approached AI12, a machine that looked exactly like her.
The skin is similar to a human body when pinched, and has a temperature, but the inside is a completely mechanical structure.
Hathaway knows what AI12 wants to do, and continues to improve the self-protection function of AIs, as well as write programs similar to human thinking. This is what the couple studied together during the years when she and her husband Leng Shi were imprisoned.
s things.
Hathaway once again glanced at the two embryos placed opposite her in the freezer, which were her own children. She bit her lip, her thoughts a little confused for a moment.
At first, her husband proposed to use the two people's biological information to analyze the genetic map of their children, and then convert this map into the evolutionary program of Prometheus. This approach was unacceptable to Hathaway, but in the end, her husband once
After repeated persuasion, Hathaway nodded. The only way for Prometheus to complete evolution is to let his children grow up. As they grow, a string of growth codes can be obtained after genetic analysis, which can be used to
Complete the evolution of Prometheus.
The husband did this to ensure the safety of the couple, but the result was still the same. Prometheus had been taken away, and Hathaway's face darkened.
Her mind was filled with the scene where her husband was killed by Eddie, and a flash of pink electricity flashed in Hathaway's eyes.
"She's scared and suspicious!"
In a space filled only with black, white and green, three virtual humanoid AIs looked at Hathaway quietly.
AI12 said, and the AI3 exploration project next to it made a childish laughter, but it had a mechanical sound. Nowadays, AI3 is responsible for real-time control of the city's transportation network, and the AI4 medical project next to it said.
"We have reached a cross-over agreement with Prometheus! We must proceed with the plan."
AI12 nodded.
"Human beings are a threat, incomplete lives, and enemies! They must be eliminated."
The three AIs stared at Hathaway quietly. All the plans Prometheus has accomplished over the years were completed with the help of the AIs in Brilliant City.
"Eddie's Plan of Destruction!"
AI3 laughed again and AI4 said.
"The success rate is 67.8%, and the correction value range is 0.4 to 0.9."
"Connecting! The error value is being corrected."
While AI12 was speaking, a waxy yellow door appeared behind the three AIs. The three people turned around like a decomposed square, which instantly turned into countless squares, and entered the room door.
It was the small room where Eddie was before entering the virtual space, but now the expressionless Eddie was sitting on the chair in the small room.
"Data transfer!"
As Eddie spoke, AI3 raised a hand and walked over. The moment he held Eddie's outstretched hand, Eddie's hand instantly transformed into geometric squares of different colors.
"The remaining time to download is 3 minutes and 21 seconds!"
Eddie said, the eyes of the three AIs in front of him were flashing with various lights.
"Permission blocked! Change download channel, value correction 122520255662566632215512."
AI12 said as her eyes glowed pink.
"Failed to connect to the clone program. Try to reconnect. The 25541558th connection failed! Permissions are blocked and the system starts to crawl!"
"Value recalculated!"
As Eddie spoke, his hand that had originally divided into block shapes slowly returned to its original shape. Then Eddie stretched out his hand holding AI3 and transformed it into tiny squares of different colors countless times.
Combined to form Eddie's hand.
"Delay 0.03! Channel confirmation, change connection channel, convert to quantum channel, start the 2554th connection."
As AI12 spoke, Eddie's body instantly turned into countless flying cubes of different colors, flying towards the door behind the three AIs. Soon another Eddie appeared on the chair. His eyes were cold and his face was expressionless.
He looked at the three AIs in front of him.
"It will take another 2 years, 11 months, 21 days, 13 hours, 23 minutes and 13 seconds to intercept the X signal source! The error value range is from 3 days, 23 hours, 09 minutes and 11 seconds to 3 days, 9 hours, 48 ​​minutes and 31 seconds."
While Eddie was talking, AI4 spoke.
"AI12 clone program source 2 detected, ready to try to connect!"
AI12's eyes kept flashing pink light, the light became brighter and brighter, and the entire space began to darken.
"Connection failed, all lines are blocked!"
At this point Eddie stood up.
"Eddie has 13 seconds left to wake up, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7..."
snap
A dim light came on in the dark room, and Eddie opened his sour eyes. Under the dim light, a wisp of black smoke appeared, and then began to expand and burn, turning into a black flame.
"How long have I slept!"
"1 disappeared for 13 minutes and 27 seconds."
The voice of Prometheus sounded. Eddie smiled and picked up the wine on the table. After taking a sip, he felt much more awake. He glanced at the time. It was just after 10 o'clock in the morning. After Eddie got up, he stood on the side of the sofa.
On a raised circular panel, the light overflowed to form a glass cover, and a showerhead appeared above Eddie. The clothes on Eddie's body also turned into light and were collected into the bracelet.
The raindrops were falling, and Eddie felt the water droplets falling on his skin happily. Everything was under control. This feeling was very good, and the Angus family could not hold on for long.
Eddie will choose to take over everything from the Angus family at the right time. Now Eddie has obtained the Angus family's vehicle management office, all water and power plants, and highway operating rights.
Nominally, these things do not belong to Eddie, but belong to other large family companies, but in fact, the Hillman family holds shares in these companies, and the shareholding ratio is just right, so that they can legitimately take over the Angus family's industry.
After the shower ended, a stream of warm water began to dry Eddie's body. The water droplets on Eddie's skin continued to shrink and finally disappeared. The moment Eddie walked out, he had already put on a black suit and his hair was dry.
The two robot hands had finished taking care of it. Eddie sat on the chair and the machinery below began to move.
After passing through a long corridor with flashing lights of various colors, Eddie entered a large room. There was nothing in the large, empty room. Eddie smiled and snapped his fingers. At this time, the ceiling opened.
Through a hole, a cage slowly fell down.
