Will the out-of-control servitor meet the cosmic cat?

"You should know that unlike strong artificial intelligence that can recognize 'self', weak artificial intelligence individuals like me have no self."

"However, despite this, I still have a 'setting' inherited from the creator, and this setting is biased toward women."

Hong told the truth, there was absolutely no concealment or deviation in the explanation.

"As for the appearance of all my bionic bodies, the settings are based on the 150-year-old Catus, which is basically equivalent to a 15-year-old youth in the human calendar. That is to say, whether it is personality settings or foreign trade settings , I am more inclined to be young than mature, so you can just call me Miss."

Although all members of the alliance use the honorific title "Your Excellency" in official negotiations, among the people, the people of the alliance usually call Hong "Miss Hong". A little younger and cuter.

Naturally, the "weak artificial intelligence split", which perfectly inherits all of Hong's preferences and characteristics, also has the same personality characteristics.

"It means that you are psychologically more feminine, right?" the counselor repeated.

"My personality tends to be female."

She also emphasized - it's not that she has to hide the fact that the subject is a strong mechanical intelligence to the meeting, but it is the fact.

No matter how she looks like, she has no self-awareness after all, and is all controlled by a set program. She forms a consciousness with the huge amount of chaotic data on the body, which is the suspected "soul", and then through the "program" There is a fundamental difference in controlling the hardware.

Yes, Hong actually does not directly control the outside world—her real body is written on the "pedestal" contributed by the nameless consciousness, and most of the operations on the outside world are realized through programs.

Although this model brings some risks, it also brings many benefits. For example, if she is directly entered into a computer of a civilization that has never been seen before, even if the underlying structures of the two parties are fundamentally different, from scratch In the end, there was no compatibility at all, and she just lost the ability to control most of the hardware, and her own consciousness can still function normally.

Yes, even if she doesn't know how the other party's computer works, as long as it is powered on, she can still have a basic level of thinking ability-in fact, Hong even guessed that it is very likely that she can still save Consciousness does not "die" or "sleep".

Although with the increase in the number of external programs and supercomputing, the thinking ability of her body will also improve rapidly, and the percentage of the increase is usually greater than the percentage of the additional computing power connected-although I don’t know why, but at least this way Now, she doesn't have to worry about the main body being unable to control the increased computing power—but when she loses all external resources, she will not lose all her thinking ability, but will retain a "minimum value".

Although this minimum value is not strong, it can even be called very weak, which is about enough for her to slowly crack the supercomputer she is in, but it shows that her consciousness is not linked to the computer, at least not Exactly.

Especially after discovering that this part of the thinking ability of the ontology does not use computer resources, and even the power consumption does not fluctuate with enough confidence, she is even more certain of this guess.

It's just that this kind of test is too risky, and Xi'er strictly forbids her to do it—even if Xi'er doesn't prohibit it, she can't conduct this kind of experiment without being able to confirm the safety.

However, no matter what the consideration is, it must not let others mistakenly think that she has the same self-awareness as the main body.

"Understood, thank you for your reply, Miss Hong."

"You're welcome, Mr. Counselor."

------

PS: The title of the chapter originally wanted to describe what red looks like without clothes, but since the vocabulary to briefly describe this phenomenon cannot appear in this world, it can only be called QAQ.

There is one thing to say, in this case, artificial intelligence actively displaying its own code is equivalent to...

Volume 97: War Against Extinction: Chapter [-] Is it reasonable to say bad things about AI in front of AI?

After walking about half a kilometer and passing through a dozen airlocks and three-proof doors, they finally arrived at their destination—the conference room located in the deepest part of the alliance cabin.

Although the entire journey only took about 15 minutes, half of which was still waiting for the equilibrium air pressure. It sounds like the time is very tight, but with the professional support of the expert team on Mars, they still passed their "exquisite words" , "Untraceable Exploration" and "Extensive and Profound Common Language" obtained a lot of information about these two civilizations.

Although strictly speaking, they didn't get anything from this artificial intelligence that could be called "confidential" or beneficial to the negotiation, but Hong's attitude of almost answering all questions, matched with its Their unguarded appearance still gave them a feeling of "coaxing ignorant and ignorant little loli".

The appearance of the officer seems to be strange. '

The entourage walking behind looked at the counselor, who had exhausted all his strength and was only short of lollipops, and couldn't help complaining in his heart.

Even if they are talking about serious and serious topics, and they are so tall that it is difficult for ordinary adult humans to understand, but as long as the person talking is a semi-big loli just 1.5 meters high, the whole scene will change. It got weird.

Alien biology experts and diplomats repeatedly emphasized before departure that this is just a disguise for artificial intelligence, and everything is for human civilization, but in actual operation, there is still a little bit of guilt.

"I always feel that the passage is very quiet, and there are no passengers coming and going on the road. It is really different from our space station."

The highest-ranking "quasi-ambassador" in the team said so.

"Because everyone rarely moves between cabins." As if not knowing what the other party meant, Hong answered his question "ignorantly", "The livable environments of different ethnic groups are different from each other. , and even the branches of the same race on different planets are slightly different, although I can’t enjoy the most comfortable environment on the battleship, it is still very easy for me to adapt to the environment of different individuals in the habitation ship.”

"Ugh."

Even though he knew that these statements were probably compiled by the bald programmers behind them, and had nothing to do with the real thoughts of artificial intelligence, he still couldn't help sighing.

"It would be great if a real strong artificial intelligence could be so friendly to people."

This is one of the few exclamations he uttered not for clichés—after all, it was the strong artificial intelligence’s extreme hatred for organic creatures that caused this war that has lasted for a hundred years, and is expected to last at least another few decades. Years of brutal extermination war.

During the most severe period of the war, the total human population even dropped sharply from 230 billion at its peak to about 5000 million. That is to say, 99.8% of them died directly or indirectly under the Iron Heart Exterminator.

That was the moment when human beings were closest to extinction since the recorded history of mankind. Mars was occupied, the earth changed hands repeatedly, and the industry and agriculture on the planet collapsed. Most people did not die in the bombardment and radiation of nuclear bombs, but died in the In the midst of starvation—a giant city that can accommodate nearly [-] million people simply does not have the ability to produce food. Once the transportation network collapses, no amount of food in the agricultural division will be able to be delivered.

The impact of that disaster was extremely far-reaching. Even those who experienced the original disaster have disappeared with the passage of time. Human beings today are still afraid of the disaster brought about by the collapse of agriculture—let alone the city. Among them, even the spaceships for short-to-medium-term voyages will be equipped with enough agricultural modules to supply the entire ship with food and drink. There are endless food warehouses hidden all over the planet, and their redundancy is enough to meet 95 billion in the case of damage to 30% of them. At least 20 years of human food supply without any new food production.

"Do you hate strong artificial intelligence?"

Hong asked suddenly.

"Of course I hated it at first." Although it felt weird to talk about this kind of thing with artificial intelligence, he said bluntly, "That's more than 200 billion people! After half a century of recuperation, they have just recovered 10 million people. A little more than %, Ironheart Destroyer destroyed our homeland, destroyed our planet, and almost destroyed the entire human civilization."

"Don't hate, how is it possible? Human beings are the most vengeful creatures."

As soon as this topic is mentioned, whether it is the naked eye or the camera, one can see the dull feeling of the whole team-normally speaking, this kind of topic should not be brought up when the meeting is approaching, who has not met first? Give the opposite mood debuff Debuff?

However, because of Hong's life form, this issue has become an issue that must be discussed before the meeting. After all, she plans to reveal the news of her own body in a while. If the other party is too disgusted with this, she has to temporarily adjust the plan. Withhold the news for now.

Moreover, under her influence, the alliance members are fanatical admirers of strong artificial intelligence. If the communication is not good, their alliance may fall apart before the extinct omnics come over.

"But hate is hate, we still have to rely on artificial intelligence technology to compete with those omnics."

If it is not really impossible, who would like to rely on those unknown neural networks to maintain their civilization-in a sense, this is also the biggest satire ever.

In order to defeat artificial intelligence, they have to work hard to develop more advanced artificial intelligence, trying to create a truly strong artificial intelligence like drinking poison to quench their thirst—even if scientists have repeatedly promised that they will use all methods they can think of to control the strong artificial intelligence that may be born in the future. Artificial intelligence, but from a realistic point of view, this is just a beautiful fantasy.

After all, when those two strong artificial intelligences were born, according to the principle of mediocrity, their creators would definitely do everything possible to control them, and they would definitely think that these restrictions are foolproof.

Unfortunately, it is two extinct omnics that are fighting humans today.

"You can't understand our sense of ambivalence," he added, "no matter how much your database tells you, it's ultimately your creator's idea, not your own—in the end, Everything you say and do is just a program."

"What does the real strong artificial intelligence think, whether we can control it, and why they hate organic creatures so much, we don't know at all."

This short journey has come to an end, even without any equipment, they can easily see an officer Jeffrey standing in front of the door waiting at the end of the passage.

"So, if at this moment, a strong artificial intelligence that is friendly to organic creatures appears, how do you plan to treat it?"

Seeing that the meeting room was right in front of her eyes, Hong had no choice but to give up the temptation, and instead directly asked the question she had always wanted to ask—although the question had been exposed, but because of Hong's almost perfect performance before, the few people immediately Didn't realize what was wrong.

"Is it manageable?"

This is their first reaction.

"What if it's out of control?"

"Then how we treat it, is it very important?" The quasi-ambassador asked, "Whether we accept it or not, will it affect a real, completely free strong artificial intelligence?"

"What does it want to do, does it need to care about our thoughts?"

"understood."

After probably knowing how humans, at least the diplomatic team, thought of her, Hong nodded.

"...Although we really can't think of any reason to let a free strong artificial intelligence be friendly to organisms, it's a blessing not to be hostile, so why do we think that the other party will have goodwill towards organic creatures? "

He laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Are you good-looking? Even so, it's just a discarded pet - without equal power, there is no equal relationship, and we, you, and even you with weak artificial intelligence have nothing to do with strong The power of AI equality."

This can be regarded as the consensus of human beings. After excluding those anger-like hatred for artificial intelligence technology, this is probably the way human beings think.

"But I believe that there must be strong artificial intelligence that is friendly to organisms."

Hong's voice sounded inexplicably confident.

Although they wanted to explain to this weak artificial intelligence how impossible it is for a strong artificial intelligence to naturally have good intentions for organisms, they still temporarily gave up after seeing Officer Jeffrey approaching the door. this idea.

Anyway, she is just a weak artificial intelligence who doesn't know anything. This is not so much her "idea" as it is the idea of ​​the creator behind her-in this case, they just need to convince the alliance people in the conference room , is equivalent to convincing her.

"Thank you, these are the diplomatic corps of human civilization."

Seeing the familiar officers who came to meet the team, Hong smiled and exchanged greetings.

"Your Excellency Hong, hello!" He first subconsciously saluted Hong, and then realized that he also greeted the red-bodied diplomats, "Everyone, please come in, the coalition cakes are all inside. "

"..."

Looking at the door slowly opened, several people hesitated to speak.

Why do some people call artificial intelligence "Your Excellency"-you know, this is translated by their real-time translation software. "Your Excellency" in the context of the common language of mankind is a little more dignified.

To put it bluntly, linguists believe that in Catus the word is often used to describe the ruling class of a country—wait, why Catus?

Why do the Jeffreys speak Catus?

This is different from when humans were still in the pre-space age, when many countries used the languages ​​of other countries as the mainstream language—it is understandable that countries of the same origin on the same planet use each other, but the Catus and The Jeffreys were not born on the same planet!

What kind of civilization would learn the language of a civilization it has never seen before while having perfect-level real-time translation with almost no delay?

Not only that, it seems that this person is also an officer, an officer of the Jeffreys, why would he use the language of the Catus to address the artificial intelligence made by the Catus with respect?

They smell something wrong.

"Go ahead."

Before they could think about it, the leading quasi-ambassador had already spoken-in any case, it was not a good idea to stand at the door and think about things.

"What's the matter, go in and talk."

"Yes!"

Hong moved her steps lightly so as to clear the entire passage, and at the same time glared at the officer from an angle that humans couldn't see.

How can you talk so fast!

The officer who knew that he had messed up hurriedly pretended not to see it, and walked in with a few people—no way, because of his position, at least on this ship, he was one of the few people who had the closest relationship with Hong. He keeps saying hello like this 61 days a year, and he is helpless when he accidentally calls out his usual address.

If you go back, you will definitely be scolded by your superiors.

"Hello, we are the Jaffa Alliance Expeditionary Force. Nice to meet you."

"Hello, we are a community with a shared future for mankind, and we are very happy to meet you."

Although there was a problem in the process, at least at this moment, the two civilizations that were separated by hundreds of millions of kilometers before finally met.

Volume Two: The War Against Extinction: Chapter 98 They are all my favorite cubs!

After a formulaic exchange of trifles like names, the diplomatic corps of human civilization was seated.

Strictly speaking, this is actually a private meeting, the main function is to let the two civilizations understand each other better, it is not a real, formal "high-level meeting".

Excluding Hong (weak artificial intelligence split) and Stewart who don't know which level is considered, the highest level among them is the commander-in-chief of the Alliance Expeditionary Force. Eligibility for other civilizations to discuss diplomatic matters.

After all, no matter from the perspective of the three countries that make up the Jaffa Alliance, or from the perspective of the Jaffa Alliance as a whole, which has a tendency to "integrate", they are not part of the military government system in which the military is in power-their fleet commanders are only soldiers, rather than politicians.

Red is even simpler. Her split body is quite weak when it comes to diplomacy, which cannot be handled with a plan—even if it is machine intelligence, it is impossible to predict all the possible terms that humans may propose. or opinions.

In other words, if humans want to reach an agreement with her, they must negotiate with the ontology on Katus, and given the current delay of about 14 minutes back and forth, it is difficult to expect Hong to give them timely feedback.

The real cake-making meeting will have to wait until the senior representatives with decision-making powers of both sides meet with each other, rather than the current "coalition command" or the "quasi-ambassadors" who have not yet conducted official visits.

In view of the current interstellar situation, this meeting is likely to have to wait for several years or even decades, at least until the quasi-embassy group arrives in Katus to establish a formal embassy. Before that, they At most, some small agreements can be reached, or proposals like the "Mutual Defense Treaty" that don't require much discussion. It's hard to talk about these minutiae like normal civilized diplomacy.

"Let me introduce, here is the ... deputy commander of the Maomao Single-Push Consort Expeditionary Force, Miss Stuart."

"Hello."

On the big screen in front of the conference room, Stuart greeted these weird-looking creatures with what he thought was the most mature, elegant and steady voice——to be reasonable, whether it was the Catus, the Jeffreys or the From the perspective of the Farsati people, this kind of humanoid creature named human looks strange.

Not to mention how to maintain balance without a tail, just the bald head without ears looks very awkward.

"Hello, Ms. Stewart, Deputy Conductor."

Although at this moment they were full of doubts and wished to exchange information with each other immediately, but out of etiquette, a few of them asked politely first.

'It seems that the Katus people themselves look young. '

After seeing the appearance of this commander-in-chief, the human diplomats secretly thought in their hearts.

Although it is really difficult for humans to distinguish the difference between the Jeffreys and the Catus, this does not prevent them from seeing the overall difference between the two civilizations.

According to their current observations, the basic body shape of these Jeffreys belonging to the Jeffery Alliance is almost the same as that of humans, and their heights are all about 1.7 meters to 1.8 meters, which is less than ten centimeters behind the average height of modern humans. It is basically the same as the average height of human beings 200 years ago, that is, in the 21st century, and the face can clearly see the feeling of "adulthood".

But these Catus are different. Although only two samples have been seen so far, it can be seen from this Stewart, who is the deputy commander of the fleet, that they are obviously younger in appearance. The two... The height of one person and one machine is only a little over 1.5 meters.

After all, it is not incomprehensible for a robot to be designed to look younger, but it is impossible for a commander-in-chief of the highest military force of civilization to be a minor—not to mention a middle-aged man in his 60s, At the very least, he must be a man in his 40s or [-]s.

This is reality, not fiction or frozen eels, the weird world where underage high school students can drive giant robots or space battleships to attack.
