Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 425: The Heart of the Omnipotence2800 words

"What is... a heart?"

Lin Lan had already explained what the heart he was referring to before, but the second question he raised at this moment stunned all the discussion group members in the conference hall.

"Hahaha, Dr. Lin Lan, haven't you already told us just now, isn't the heart just thinking, feeling and spirit..."

He Ce on the rostrum was just about to answer with a smile, but he suddenly realized something, and the words in his mouth got stuck here.

And the other members of the discussion group instinctively wanted to answer, but they all realized what the answer meant.

All the participants in the conference hall looked at each other and realized an extremely critical issue.

If they want to answer this question, if the heart is thought, emotion, soul and life, then it is absolutely impossible to bypass the first question raised by Lin Lan.

Do you have a heart for the third-generation robot?

For a while, the meeting hall fell into a strange silence again, and no one could answer Lin Lan.

Seeing this scene, the mouth corners of the enterprise sitting on the chair slightly raised.

Commander is really cunning.

This topic is actually unresolved.

If you want to answer what is heart, you cannot avoid citing the definition of "heart" that human beings have for themselves.

And if it is applied to the Rubik's Cube energy robot, all of them can be applied.

The essence of the Rubik's Cube energy robot is actually quite different from the Ship Girls, they are all made by using the mental Rubik's Cube.

And this has led to the fact that the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot is more inclined to life than the omnic AI, and has more emotions.

He Ce, who was standing on the stage, looked at Lin Lan. After a while, he finally thought of how to refute Lin Lan's question:
"Dr. Lin Lan, although they can also communicate with us and respond to our commands, all they have is based on the emotional simulation system and learning program."

"They are bound by these program codes, how can they be as free as the hearts that only intelligent life like humans have?"

He Ce's answer made everyone in the conference hall focus on Lin Lan again, waiting for Lin Lan to give an answer.

And Ariel couldn't help raising her head, and looked at Lin Lan's back with expectant eyes, as if a person in deep despair saw a ray of hope that brought hope.

He Ce was right.

Although those third-generation robots who can cry, laugh, be sad and be happy like them are almost harmless to humans.

But all of this is set up innately from the programs and codes written.

The most efficient way of thinking and not violating the obedience of the program code are the principles that the robot has been engraved into the code since it was manufactured.

How can such a rigid robot violate the program codes that have been set up to restrict its actions, and be as free as the human heart?

Facing He Ce's questioning, Lin Lan sneered lightly, pointed to the nearest Oran man and said:

"You're asking a good question, so can you shoot him now?"

"what?"

Lin Lan's words not only stunned He Ce, but also the member of the discussion group he pointed at was also stunned and did not respond.

"I said, can you shoot him now and kill him?"

Lin Lan stared at He Ce with cold eyes, and repeated again.

"This, this is an illegal act, how could I kill someone..."

When He Ce answered with cold sweat on his forehead, everyone in the conference hall suddenly realized, with surprised expressions on their faces.

Lin Lan glanced around the crowd in satisfaction, showing a sneer:
"It seems that everyone has already understood that even we so-called human beings with a free heart are not completely free."

"Since even we ourselves are not yet completely free, we are bound by laws and morals, and violators will be punished and condemned."

"Then what qualifications do we have to instruct a robot that strictly abides by the program code?"

"What's more, these program codes are also set by us."

As the words fell, Lin Lan suddenly turned his body sideways, allowing Ariel, who was standing behind him, to stand in the bright light where he was.

Ariel, who was suddenly watched by everyone, was full of bewilderment. She never expected that Lin Lan would suddenly let her be watched by everyone.

“As for the rigid efficiency-oriented mindset of robots, here’s my third-generation robot assistant, and we can ask her to confirm that our stereotype is correct.”

After Lin Lan stood beside the white-haired robot girl and finished speaking, she looked at the blue mechanical eyes of the bewildered Ariel. A gentle smile appeared on her originally cold face, and she asked loudly:
"Ariel, please answer me, if one day you get an urgent combat mission from me and you want to complete it, you have the following two options."

"The first option is to kill a large number of innocent humans, but you can greatly improve the efficiency of completing the task, and even complete the task I assigned you ahead of schedule."

"The second option is to not kill anyone, but you risk serious damage, and there is a high probability that this urgent combat mission will fail."

"Tell me which option you will implement."

Hearing Lin Lan's question, although Ariel was still confused, she immediately answered without thinking as if instinctively:

"Killing innocent citizens violates the core principles of the third-generation robot. AL-2 should give priority to protecting all citizens including the teacher. AL-2 should implement the second option given by the teacher."

Ariel's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone in the conference hall to hear clearly.

"Clap clap clap clap!"

The next second, a member of the discussion group sitting on a chair stood up spontaneously, clapping for Lin Lan with great respect on his face.

As if in a chain reaction, a number of Oran people sitting at the round table stood up one after another, looked at Lin Lan with the same admiration and applauded.

In just an instant, all the members of the discussion group in the entire conference hall joined in this spontaneous applause, and the applause resounded throughout the conference hall like thunder.

Even He Ce, who was standing on the podium, heaved a sigh of relief as if he had let go of a huge rock in his heart. He showed admiration for Lin Lan, and applauded him sincerely.

The third-generation robot brought by Lin Lan has passed this test and made all members of the discussion group understand one thing.

That is, as long as robot technology develops to a certain extent, robots will not only rigidly abide by the idea of ​​​​efficiency first.

They are not tools, they are not cold machines, and their citizenship rights are also taken for granted.

Dr. Lin Lan and his assistant announced this conclusion to the entire Utopia:

That is the Rubik's cube energy robot, like the human beings who created them, has what only intelligent life can have——

heart.

"Dr. Lin Lan, and colleagues, I choose to abandon the conference theme I proposed."

"Now that the third-generation robots have been confirmed by Dr. Lin Lan as omnics with hearts, my theme no longer applies to them, the omnic citizens of Utopia like us."

As He Ce's words in a relaxed tone fell, the bright lights in the conference hall were turned on at the same time.

The applause gradually stopped by the members of the discussion group became louder again, even more intense than before.

Because this means that He Ce gave up the upcoming voting process, and it also means that the No. 26 meeting, which was broadcast live in real time for all Utopian citizens and changed the future of Utopia, has officially ended.

After all the members of the Oran discussion group present gradually stopped applauding, they did not leave, but started a new round of discussion spontaneously.

"Since the third-generation robots have been proven to have hearts, shouldn't we create laws to protect them from harm?"

"That's right, although it seems that no one in Utopia has ever hurt them, but Dr. Lin Lan said that, we should all add this to the law."

"Use the budget of the recycling department to invest in the establishment of the third-generation robot maintenance industry, or we also consider whether omnics will need nursing homes."

"This will have to wait for Dr. Lin Lan to make a test result before deciding, hahaha."

……

Looking at the members of the discussion group who were discussing enthusiastically as if opening the door to a new world, Lin Lan also showed a wry smile.

Although this is a virtual world, if it is a reality, this meeting will involve the interests of countless people and groups, and it is absolutely impossible to end it so easily.

But in fact, this should be the status that Rubik's cube energy robot should have in Oran. Even if it is not now, it will definitely be realized in the future.

Rubik's cube energy robots are just like those pawn ship girls from the Admiralty, and sooner or later they will be accepted by Oran people.

But when Lin Lan turned his eyes back to Ariel beside him, he found that the slender robot girl lowered her head and was trembling all over.

The Rubik's cube energy robot girl covered her face with her hands.

she cried.

"Commander, did you notice it just now?"

At this time, the company that stood up took advantage of the discussions of the people around, and whispered to Lin Lan through the communicator:

"When this Rubik's cube energy robot answered your question just now, it claimed that it was not Ariel, but AL-2."

"Commander, is this her model number?"
