46. Oneka Group
"This plan..."
Big bald Lex. Luthor was a very patient man, and he stood by the window, and read the unnamed plan at hand in its entirety, and when he had finished it, he whispered:
"It's kind of interesting."
The smart man looked back at Fury, and he said:
"You must have gone a long time combing and planning to come up with this huge and complete plan... I have to admit that I underestimated S.H.I.E.L.D. before. ”
"It's okay."
Fury didn't care, he said while playing with the badge of the Future Technology Foundation in his hand:
"People who don't know us well will always look down on us until we punch us in the face, which is normal, we are used to it."
"A group that crosses national and geographical concepts, specializing in the research and development of artificial intelligence and new mechanical products, as a way to usher in the era of intelligent machines..."
Bruce. Wayne threw the plan aside, he glanced at Fury, then at Merlin, and said:
"It sounds very feasible, but are you planning to slowly infiltrate the people?"
"Yes, at first there were semi-intelligent devices, sweeping robots, smart speakers, etc., then there were primary intelligence, fully autonomous vehicles, intelligent service systems to help paralyzed patients, and finally robots, which were used to replace dangerous industrial production positions, and mechanical servants and so on."
Merlin said briefly:
"There is a complete hierarchical system, and people's fear of the unfamiliar comes from the unknown, so it needs to be promoted step by step. But this kind of thing can't be done by the authorities, and it will be interpreted by the media as some very bad signs, so it is best to leave it to the business system to operate. ”
"But even Wayne Industries, or the Lex Group, or Stark Industries, or even Wakanda, can't do it on their own."
Merlin Says:
"We need you to form a consortium, all of you have been carefully selected, and you have all proven your position in the previous Cybertron War, of course, this consortium only needs a nominal capital injection, and its day-to-day operations are controlled by us under the supervision of the World Security Council. However, all the profits from your investment will be returned to you. ”
"When it first appears, you also need to use your energy to get it on the right track quickly."
"Wait, I have a question!"
The smart man Reid frowned, looked at some of the information in the plan, and he asked:
"You are planning to tamper with the birth information of the intelligent machines, completely separate their origins from the Cybertrons, and make them the product of human development of artificial intelligence, so as to dispel the people's fears and worries about intelligent machines, I can understand the reason for this, but I doubt that with our current technology, we can complete this kind of large-scale data level... Well, 'brainwashing'. ”
"After all, as far as I know, there are quite a few intelligent machines in the world now."
"Good question!"
Fury snapped his fingers, he looked back at Reed, and he said:
"We can't solve it, so that's why you're here, the number one smart man in the world, we need your wisdom to solve this problem, and I also believe that you can complete this task."
"Ugh."
Reed didn't expect to ask a question and trap himself into Fury's pre-prepared language trap.
He was a little hesitant, he was a neutral, he didn't have a good impression of the machine, and he didn't have any bad feelings, but this kind of large-scale erasure of the memory of the machine's data always felt a little panicked.
T'Challa, the prince of Wakanda, who was standing beside him, also objected:
"Wakanda has pledged to protect the lives of all intelligent machines that enter our country and are willing to abide by Wakanda's laws. This mass amnestics can make them feel uneasy. ”
Princess Su Rui also spoke:
"And I think you're underestimating the intelligence of the Intelligence, especially the first and second batches of Intelligence, which have the energy to restructure to perfect their character modules, and they are no more stupid than humans, and frankly, they are smarter than most humans. This kind of simple 'brainwashing' is very difficult to achieve, both in terms of technology and ethics. ”
"On this subject..."
Merlin and Fury looked at each other, and he placed a stereoscopic projection device on the table, and the next moment, the projection was turned on.
In the projection, George, sitting in a hovering chair, is facing a strange intelligent machine.
The reason why it's weird is because this intelligent machine is reading...
The real reading is full of all kinds of classics in front of its eyes.
"Mengdata, do you have any experience from reading in the past few days?"
George asked.
"Please don't disturb me, sir, I'm thinking about the relationship between soul and body... Do we have souls? How should we recognize the concept of the soul? Most importantly, if we don't have a soul in our mechanical body, then how do we give birth to a soul? ”
"Ah, this problem is too difficult for my logical processor to handle such a problem..."
The robot turned a page of the book, and it said:
"I must draw wisdom from the history of mankind... Please don't bother me. ”
"Huh"
This is the end of the projection.
Merlin looked at Su Rui and asked:
"Tell me, Su Rui... Do you think the machine has a soul? ”
"This..."
Princess Surui, who has always been wise, said she couldn't answer, and Lex, who was sitting across from her. A twinkle flashed in Luther's eyes, and it was clear that Mr. Luther understood.
"Reed, you're the smartest man in the world, you tell me, do smart machines have souls?"
Merlin looked at Mr. Reed again, who shrugged his shoulders and replied:
"I don't know, maybe I'll be able to answer your question after I've delved into the knowledge of the Cybertrons."
"Okay."
Merlin looked at T'Challa, who was frowning, and said:
"Your Royal Highness, your commitment to protect the personal safety of the intelligent machine, this is good, this is great, very kind, very kind, but the problem is that the birth of each race civilization must have its own unique culture and civilization concept, for a group of creatures who just use data to simulate personality, their memories, their cognition, I mean, these things they simulate, are they meaningful?"
"I'm a wizard, guys."
Merlin drew his wand and shook it, and he said to the others:
"I can answer you from a magical point of view that sapient machines have no soul, at least at this time, they have no soul. The Mondatta that you saw earlier, it's a special intelligent machine, and we've modified its logic circuits to make it have the ability to think emotionally, which is really hard to do, and it took us a lot of time. ”
"In short, what I mean is that until Mr. Mundata's thinking about the body and soul of the intelligence machine is completed, and before he truly realizes the meaning of the soul, the so-called personality and memory of the intelligence machine are just a bunch of data."
"As cold as I say this, it's true, and I can tell you, Cybertrons, that there probably isn't anyone in this world who knows more about these mechanical beings than I do... In their eyes, the 'compatriots' are those robots who have been given the meaning of existence, and have sound personality traits and self-logical correction. ”
Merlin spread his hands:
"From this point of view, even in the eyes of the Cybertrons, the intelligent machine is only a tool that can move and think. Do you think we're persecuting the Intelligence? No, that's wrong! We're helping them evolve to become truly soul creatures! ”
"We're helping them!"
When Merlin had finished speaking, Fury reached out and knocked on the table, and he said:
"Of course, Mr. Reid and Wakanda have had plenty of time to think about our proposal, and now it's time for us to discuss the specifics."
"There is a very important part of this plan, which is what we call the 'smart machine hub' equipment."
Fury Says:
"The function of this equipment is to simulate the process of natural production of smart machines from the source of fire, so as to realize the independent production of smart machines by human beings. We can't fool our people with a hoax, we have to complete this central program that can continuously produce intelligent machines, or artificial intelligence, before they are accepted by the masses. ”
"If we claim that we created the machine, then we have to do it! Ladies and gentlemen, the scam will be exposed one day, but the truth is not afraid to stand the test. ”
"Based on the current data..."
Merlin Says:
"In the end, the number of intelligent machines born naturally may be between 2 million and 5 million, which is not too large, but if the intelligent machine center is really developed, then the number of intelligent machines in the future will be greatly increased. What can 5 million robots do? Even if they all have souls, they are just a minority, and if we want intelligence to truly change our social form and future, then 10 times more of them will not be enough... They've got more! ”
"What I want to tell you is..."
Merlin propped his hands on the table, and he said earnestly to everyone in front of him:
"Don't think that the Smart Machine Project is just a senseless hoax, it's not!"
"In addition to helping intelligent machines truly integrate into the earth's civilization and avoid future intelligent machine crises, it is also a progressive promotion of human scientific and technological civilization that we propose."
"We want our world to be a better place in the future, and the development of technology will also make our expectations come true, and we say we want to open the door to a new era, and we are doing it!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are the wisest, smartest, and most far-sighted people in human civilization, and we hope that you will also participate in this action, use your strength to promote it, to monitor it, to judge it, to correct the pace and rhythm brought about by the age of intelligence, to correct the dangers that may arise, and finally, little by little, to lead the world into a more advanced era."
Merlin glanced at Luther, and he smiled and said:
"Our civilization is excellent, it doesn't need the intervention of external forces, and it doesn't need to pull out the seedlings to help it grow, but I don't think that the intelligent machine project is a kind of interference with civilization, this is a reinforcement of the earth's civilization, because one day, those intelligent machines will also stand with us and loudly declare that they are also members of the earth..."
"They were born on Earth, they have nothing to do with the Cybertrons, they are our fellow race... It is our innate duty to help them become better, to help them realize the purpose of their existence. ”
"What do you think?"
Merlin's words were very good and inflammatory, but unfortunately, the people in front of him were not the young people who would be incited casually. The people here have their own ideas, their own wisdom, and none of them will be dumber than Merlin, nor will they lose their own thinking by Merlin's words.
So the atmosphere was a little awkwardly cold.
It wasn't until a few minutes later, when Luthor put the paper in his handbag, that he said to Merlin and Fury:
"I need to think about it for a while... I think you can understand that, too. ”
"Me too."
Tony. Stark glanced at Merlin, and he said:
"It's so big, it's too big for me to want to participate in, you're doing something very dangerous, planning for the future... Hmph, I think you're going to mess up. ”
"What are you afraid of messing up?"
Merlin laughed and said:
"No, and Tony. Will Stark come on at the last minute to complete a finale to turn the tide? ”
"I'm not interested."
Tony snorted proudly, he stood up, grabbed the file casually, and said:
"I'm going to accompany Pozzi, women are trouble... Wait for my message, I'll get back to you as soon as possible. ”
"I need to give the papers to my father."
T'Challa and Princess Suri also announced their farewell, and he said earnestly to Merlin and Fury:
"Regardless of the outcome, we will get back to you as soon as possible."
"Okay."
Merlin watched the room leave one by one, and at last only him and Fury were left, and he shrugged Fury's shoulders, then reached under the table and grabbed it, and three bugs of different shapes were thrown on the table.
Well, Tony one, Bruce one, and the last one should be Su Rui's put.
He said to Fury:
"It's a real headache and irritating to deal with this group of smart and over-the-top guys."
"But only they have the ability to be part of it."
Fury sighed, he looked at Merlin, and he said:
"Now we need to wait for news... Oh, by the way, I gave the brewing consortium a name. ”
"What do you think, Omnica?"
Merlin rubbed his chin and savored the name:
"Can you do anything?"
"Well, it's not bad, right..."
