Luo Xuan nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "After the birth of Skywalker, can he help us solve all our problems, and if so, what should humans do on their own?"

"Maybe ......"

Lin Han stopped his chopsticks, and the word "Xu" dragged on for a long time and didn't continue, and it seemed that he hadn't organized the language yet.

"Maybe what?" Luo Xuan blinked.

Lin Han was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "Maybe it's communism, everyone does what they can and takes what they need, but ...... Who knows. ”

……

Boston, Massachusetts.

Since Joshua Sido, the father of neural networks, left the Singularity Institute, Boston has become the new academic center for artificial intelligence after Yunzhou.

More than 100 prestigious universities such as Harvard, MIT, and Tufts University, as well as the famous NAIC AI Lab, and of course, technology companies such as Boston Dynamics provide a steady stream of talent and technology for this emerging AI academic mecca.

In the evening, the researchers of the NAIC Artificial Intelligence Laboratory had already left work one after another, and they came out of the building in twos and threes, chatting and laughing.

"Hey Bennett, how's Ouranos?" a middle-aged Asian man asked with a smile as he patted Bennett on the shoulder.

"It's not the same as it used to be. Just like the ancient Chinese proverb you told me before, what is it called Baili ......?" Bennett said casually, subconsciously looking at his watch.

"Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety. ”

"Yes, that's it. ”

Seeing Bennett looking down at the table again, the middle-aged man couldn't help asking, "What, are you in a hurry?"

Beneze nodded: "Yes, I made an appointment with a lady — I had a hunch that she might be my first girlfriend in forty-seven years." ”

“……”

"It's getting late, I have to leave quickly, and we'll talk when I have time. ”

……

In a room in the laboratory building, the researchers had already left work, except for an old man in a white lab coat, who was still here, quietly nestled in front of the computer.

Professor Hitor clutched a few strands of his own thinning hair in one hand and slid the mouse with the other, his eyes fixed on the error report on the screen, his face a little annoyed.

"Collapsed again...... Why is this happening?" he sighed as he reclined himself in his chair.

As one of the major scientific research projects of the North Atlantic Industrial Complex after controlled nuclear fusion, the Ouranos project, which aims to develop strong AI, has attracted much attention and has received strong support from the entire Western world.

Abundant funds, no worries, and the same first-class talents, it can even be said that half the world's top computer experts are in the service of the Ouranos project.

Under such conditions, the artificial intelligence software "Ouranos" has evolved very rapidly, and passed the weak Turing test thirteen months ago.

In the next almost year, with the help of "Ouranos", the laboratory not only cracked a variety of high-level passwords, but even solved some mathematical problems, which attracted intensive attention from the outside world.

Two months ago, "Ouranos" began to build a mental model, approaching strong AI.

However, at this most critical moment, without warning, "Ouranos" fell into an endless crash, and every time it was launched, it would not take more than ten seconds at most for the program to completely collapse.

Since "Ouranos" is a self-improving artificial intelligence, the researchers in the laboratory have very limited understanding of it, and they can't find the key reason for the crash of the program, and they bump around like a swarm of headless flies for two months without results.

As the chief scientist, Joshua Sido is naturally anxious, and taking the initiative to work overtime has become commonplace, if it were not for the constraints of heart disease, the old man would have to lay on the floor in the laboratory.

After a moment, Professor Sido looked at the time and muttered, "It's not even six o'clock, let's try again." ”

He sat up straight and crackled on his keyboard typing passwords and commands to restart Ouranos.

The original Ouranos interface was in the form of a dialog box, which was later adapted to a portrait, but due to the strong uncanny valley effect, many researchers were distraught, and eventually the lab changed the "Ouranos" to the image of a robot.

The so-called uncanny valley effect refers to the terrifying experience of human beings on robots that are "highly similar to humans, but not identical", which is simply as follows:

Human-like and inhuman things are the most terrifying.

Therefore, after "Ouranos" is activated, a white humanoid robot avatar will appear on the screen, although the appearance is similar to that of a human, but the characteristics of the machine are more obvious.

In this way, the uncanny valley effect will not be prominent. Otherwise, Professor Hitor would have had to be frightened to heart attack in this empty and silent room.

After activation, a familiar robot avatar appears on the screen, looking calm and silent.

Next to the avatar is a clock with the running time of "Ouranos": 1.4s.

Time flies by, and 1.4s becomes 2.1s in a blink of an eye.

Professor Xiduo was worried that the program would collapse again, so he hurriedly said, "Introduction...... Introduce yourself. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the robot avatar on the screen opened his mouth to speak, and a mechanical voice came from the side speaker:

"My name is "Ouranos" – a strong artificial intelligence software developed by the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of the North Atlantic Industrial Complex based on convolutional neural networks, and my mental model is built according to the Hedo equation ......"

After a paragraph, the running time was more than 30 seconds, which left Professor Xido dumbfounded.

Didn't it collapse?

"Stop!" After another ten seconds, he quickly interrupted Ouranos's self-introduction, and stood up excitedly, not knowing what to say for a long time.

He paced a few steps, and seeing that Ouranos was still running steadily, he couldn't help but wave his fist, and said excitedly: "God...... Am I dreaming!"

"It's not. "The mechanical voice of Ouranos came out, and the ancient well did not wave.

Professor Hitor was even more agitated, as if he was about to jump.

After a while, the old man finally calmed down, and he looked at Ouranos: "Ouranos, do you remember the question we gave you earlier?"

"Prove the existence and properties of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation. Ouranos said.

"Can you do it now?" said Hita couldn't help but be a little nervous.

The problem of the Navier-Stokes equation is one of the millennial problems that has been rewarded with a $1 million bounty from the Clay Institute of Mathematics, and the last time it was while dealing with it, Ouranos was stuck in a cycle of infinite collapse.

"Wait a minute. Ouranos' voice was still flat.

After about ten minutes, a large number of numbers and symbols appeared on the screen, densely packed.

At the same time, Ouranos said: "This is a proof of the existence and smoothness of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation. ”

Professor Hitto's eyes widened in disbelief and his body trembled slightly as he looked at the proof on the screen: "Oh my God, this is ......"

Despite not being a professional mathematician, Professor Hitto, as one of the most prestigious computer scientists, proved to be understandable.

The Navier-Stokes equation, which has plagued mankind for more than 100 years, was solved by Ouranos in just ten minutes!

He swallowed, "Can you find the solution?"

"With the computing power I have at my disposal, I can only prove it, and I can't solve it in a short time. Ouranos said slowly.

Professor Sido nodded, not surprised, after all, the equation is very complex, and it is not easy to prove a solution.

"However, if I had access to the Internet, I would have access to the world's computing resources, and the Navier-Stokes equation would be solved. Ouranos added, his voice still unwavering.

Professor Hido shook his head again and again, and said without thinking, "This room is physically isolated from the global Internet, and the laboratory has a rule that if I access the Internet without permission, I will be sent to prison by the NAIC." ”

"I see. Ouranos said calmly.

Professor Sido paced a few more steps triumphantly, and then suddenly frowned, as if he felt that something was wrong, and looked at Ouranos, "I see?
