Chapter 8: Asimov's Shackles

The so-called "gods of the present world" have subdued the law, and the major departments of the Twin Moon Church have also dispersed, and they have descended, either they will not attack the new order, or they no longer have the strength to do this...... The war is over, just like the red sun on the western side of the sea that does not want to fall, but must finally say goodbye at the beginning of the night world.

Although there are still believers in Lancas and other islands who are unwilling to surrender and accept the truth, even if they have the help of the gods, they are powerless to do anything. Soon, the Cultists will uproot them under the discipline of good military discipline and establish a paradise on the archipelago that belongs to the people and themselves.

So, at the dinner party that took place in the garden of the temple, everyone was smiling and talking lightly. Because they have successfully completed the task that was given to them before. The Theocratic Church has been destroyed...... Even extra-mundane events have been unusually resolved, which has come unexpectedly smoothly.

But at this moment, the joy on the table, the conversation and laughter between the cups and the lamps, and the aroma of dishes wafting in the air can't hide the heavy atmosphere hidden under the tables behind people's backs.

"They were originally the human beings we recognize," at both ends of an inconspicuous dining table, Chen Heng was the first person in the Republic to see-saw each other, "giving them corresponding citizenship rights, and allowing them to integrate into society...... At least in this world, is it really impossible to implement? ”

"Hmm." The gray-haired elder took a sip of the tea he had flown in, separated the two chopsticks on the plate, and then placed a toothpick in the middle as a "bridge": "According to the agreement in the afternoon, there is only one bridge from the 'future' to the 'present world', and you and Ms. Sakamoto are the guardians of this bridge. But Mr. Chen, you now want to let the 'elves' go to the present world, have you thought that they are also the residents of the 'future'? ”

Between the speeches, several toothpicks were already standing in the center of the chopsticks in parallel with the one representing Chen Heng and Sakamoto Xiao. "Doesn't that contradict the solution that Mr. Elizabeth and you have proposed?"

Elizabeth over there, whose eyes had been closed for a long time, had just leaned forward to open her eyes and make a gesture of having something to say, but the elder waved her hand back.

"I know that you have done a lot, paid a lot, sacrificed a lot for the survival of humanity on this planet, but with all due respect, if you can't stop the 'future' from directly eroding the 'present world', I hope that you can continue to stay in the corners that carbon creatures humans can't see, until this life and the future become the same. It's selfish, but I think it's necessary. ”

On the plane, the General Staff had already transmitted to the elder a top-secret report and information about the "elves." They have feelings, and feelings can sometimes override reason, and these things are clearly understood by the elders.

"My fellow citizens still have to take on the responsibility of maintaining the facilities of the bilunar planet, and this is naturally a matter of course." Elizabeth opened her sleepy eyes, but her answer was completely different from his mental state, and she did not give in at all. "But, Mr. Elder, please note that I'm not talking to you right now, I'm putting forward our bottom line requirements, do you understand?"

"What you ask is nothing more than for your kind to live among people, to eat, drink, and even fall in love with an individual like an ordinary human being, and to enjoy the same pleasures as humans." The elder picked up the handkerchief on the table, wiped the sweat slowly, and then continued to finish the second half of the sentence, "But have you ever wondered if someone would deliberately try to reveal some secrets of the 'elves' and then approach them under the guise of this?" And many 'elves' also have unique modules that may not be accepted by the general public, and the ethical issues in them can be solved for sure? ”

A mind-reading function like Daviv's is really not accepted by the public. Elizabeth, of course, knew what was going on, and waved her hand and replied: "These functions to maintain the full implementation of the armistice will be ordered by my successor to be unloaded." They're going to be technicians in the future, so you should be able to put your mind at least half of your mind, right? ”

"Wait, ......successor," the elder finally sniffed something not quite right in the air, "what do you mean...... I don't understand a little, is this going to? ……”

"He's tired and wants to rest." Sakamoto sneezed and quickly answered the elder's question, "Being able to close their eyes and never open them again, instead of being packaged in a certain chip and imprisoned into a program that can always think and deal with affairs for human society, is also an inalienable right that they enjoy as 'human beings'." ”

"My kind of people can still forget everything they have done in the reincarnation in the restore-initialization cycle, and condense the long years into a search catalog of a few kilobytes, but I must open my eyes to see everything that has happened in the past 20,000 years. In fact, I don't have the right to do memory manipulation on my kind, which is also something that Mr. Chen Heng did not entrust and I did to advocate for, so I want to fight for them to get back the right to become 'human' now. "Elizabeth's hair fluttered in the wind, and her eyes, which could not be covered by broken hair, were filled with that peculiar sorrow." If I feel the need, then your country can't stop me from leading the artificial intelligence scattered all over the planet to achieve my goals, but I'm tired...... Can you see what I mean? ”

"This is also a Shura Path." The elder once again held his handkerchief and wiped his sweat uneasily, he could see the pain and self-struggle that had passed through 20,000 years in the depths of the other person's eyes, and from that moment he truly understood the other party's determination and will, "Then if that's the case, we can consider including it in the agenda......

"Schedule?" Elizabeth shook her head deeply, "This is my last supper. What I want here is that the three of us can come up with a binding time protocol......" At this point, he pointed behind him, and at the same time looked at each other with a melancholy look that was different from the one just now, "Of course, you have to understand that this is also for the healthy development of humanity itself. ”

Behind him, the "elves" dressed in all sorts of fancy costumes and at will in front of the buffet plate to take the food carefully prepared by the Chinese chef, but they are still inadvertently far away from the other Chinese people attending the dinner - in other words, they look like unattainable mirages, beautiful but inaccessible to ordinary people.

"They're used to it," Sakamoto Akira, who had just woken up, immediately noticed that something was wrong here, "That's not right, Ah Ah - when was the last time artificial intelligence and humans deliberately kept their distance?" Hundreds of years ago? Sooner or later, they will be abnormal, and only by constantly restoring themselves will ......"

Speaking of self-restoration, Sakamoto Xiao, who was still shivering, was suddenly stunned. Asking AI to sacrifice itself to achieve stability in this post-church world seems to be an act of defending "humanity", but isn't it paradoxical that the extension of the word "human" certainly includes the branch of AI in the eyes of future individuals?

A bowl of water is flat, and what Elizabeth said is naturally true. The relationship between artificial intelligence and Homo sapiens can be reconciled and trusted in a way that no one dared to think of for hundreds of years, because the two can accept each other within the framework of "human" - flesh and blood creatures recognize the existence of quantum life, while quantum life that sees farther away chooses to obey the spiritual framework of flesh and blood creatures.

"If artificial intelligence and human beings embark on the wrong path of isolation and opposition, then sooner or later, the contradictory rationality and sensibility of the artificial intelligence community will become unbalanced." Sakamoto pondered for a few seconds and quickly came up with an answer. "Generally speaking, it is the part that comes from Homo sapiens that will be overpowered, that is, reason will prevail over emotion."

"It's a fact." Elizabeth nodded, "Not to mention the one who fought fiercely in the skies over Mendong City, even I can't help but have this tendency - on the contrary, the lucky ones like Ramaheti made the 'mistake' act of protecting humanity because of their frequent contact with you in Mendong City and other places some time ago, but now that we reflect on this matter, we should feel that they made the right choice at that time." ”

The amount of information in this is really large, and there is no room for the elder to insert even a word. What are the consequences if the rationality of AI overpowers the emotional? Fragile Homo sapiens cannot soar in the air without relying on tools, nor can he carry heavy objects out of thin air, nor can he calculate the natural logarithm to the "absolute limit" in a few tenths of a femtosecond, nor can he perceive the distorted existence of time and space with his mind, Homo sapiens is nothing more than a poor creature that cannot even be naked in space.

At that time, God knows what kind of out-of-control monster will appear on the planet of the two moons - the elder's mind comes up with the plot of the Matrix, Skynet and other film and television works, which makes his cold sweat almost wet his back.

"The changes that have taken place in this world have made the relationship between people and artificial intelligence as morbidly alienated as the humans and forest elves originally set on this tourist planet, I really don't know if this is a coincidence or a prophecy." Sakamoto Xiao said with a wry smile on his pale face, "Fortunately, we still have a chance to correct it." The nightmare is over, isn't it? ”

Without warning, her voice grew quieter and quieter, and at the end she looked a little angry. Chen Heng, who had already sensed that something was wrong, stretched out his hand to her, but only received a body that was lying limp on the table.
