Chapter 7: Artificial Intelligence and the End of the World

"You're looking into this afternoon." She exhaled and whispered in my ear.

"Yes......" I kept taking deep breaths to calm my beating heart a little, "and judging by the information I've just retrieved, this incident we encountered in the afternoon was not an easy one. ”

"Did you find it? What's going on in the afternoon? She turned her face away, turned around and sat down on the bed behind me. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now we only know sporadic news, but if you want to dig deeper, you can't do it, because most of the news is blocked. The top management reacts very quickly, which is really rare. "I minimized the browser," which presumably means that the AI has managed to escape human control. ”

"What happens if you get out of human control?" She doesn't understand.

"I don't know. Anyway, according to what I have found, it is called 'the catastrophe of mankind' at the least, and the 'extinction of mankind' at the worst. ”

"Huh?" She was a little incredulous, "Wouldn't it?" How can it be so exaggerated. There have been many people who have predicted the end of the world before, but isn't there nothing at all? ”

"This time it may be true, and the problem should be particularly special. What happened in our afternoon has only been 2 hours since then, but the relevant news on the Internet has been completely deleted. I frowned, "I'll take a look at it later, I'll have to figure out what happened in the afternoon." ”

I stood up, got out of the computer desk, went to the closet and took out my pajamas, turned around and went into the bathroom to take a shower. Taking a bath helps to relax your body and brain, and maybe you can figure out some questions after washing.

Yet I still overestimated myself and was still confused after taking a shower. I'm just a person who keeps struggling when I encounter some problems that I can't figure out, and the more I don't understand, the more entangled I become, and finally I get entangled to death.

This entanglement forced me to sit back in front of my computer and type words like "artificial intelligence", "MSI 2", and "life" into the search box, trying to get closer to the truth.

It's a pity that the various hyperlinks in the browsing window have made my thinking more and more biased, and I don't know what I'm looking for in the end. I ran from Baidu Encyclopedia to CNKI, and then from CNKI to Wikipedia, and then from Wiki to Zhihu, and I got nothing in my head except for receiving a huge amount of miscellaneous information.

"MDZZ, I don't believe in evil, there are so many spectators in this game in the afternoon, can these people all evaporate from the world? Now it's been three hours, and I haven't let out a single fart?! "I'm getting a little angry.

When I'm angry, I sometimes do things that I don't think about. I looked back and saw Chen Xiaolin sitting on the bed behind me playing with her phone.

She sat quietly with her undried hair and a lilac cotton nightdress, staring at the screen of her phone, sometimes with a hint of an innocent smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she had met something that made her feel happy.

It seems that she didn't notice my gaffe, so I clicked on League of Legends, intending to have a hearty battle to calm my frustrated heart on the Internet.

“first-blood!”

“double-kill!”

“triple-kill!”

“quatary-kill!”

“penta-kill!”

I steered Galen to slaughter all sides in the boot camp, sweeping all the way, invincible, like a sharp sword piercing the opponent's crystal.

“Victory!”

Looking at the crystal that was pushed by me, I felt an inexplicable refreshment in my heart. What kind of "artificial intelligence"? Isn't man-machine also artificial intelligence, isn't it the same as being beaten?

I glanced up at the clock hanging on the wall, and before I knew it, it was almost ten o'clock, and it was time to go to bed. Chen Xiaolin will report to school at 9 o'clock tomorrow and can't go to bed too late.

"Hah......" Chen Xiaolin yawned, rubbed her eyes and said to me, "I'm so sleepy, but how are we going to sleep tonight?" ”

"Don't worry, you sleep in my bed, and I will lay on the floor." I opened the cabinet, took out a quilt from it, and spread it on the floor.

"Huh? You're going to sleep on the floor, isn't that good...... My mom told me that sleeping on the floor is not good for your health. Chen Xiaolin's face turned red instantly, "Or...... You sleep in bed, I'm fine......"

"It's just one night, and it's fine. Sleep, you've got to wake up early tomorrow. "I laid out the futon and prepared to turn off the lights.

"Well, thank you." She whispered.

I turned off the lights and there was only darkness left in the room. My house is on the outskirts of the city, and it is very quiet at night, without the hustle and bustle of the city center, and the only sound is the wind that blows by at night, like a terrible ghost howling.

I was lying under the covers, and I didn't close my eyes. Somehow, maybe I was used to sleeping in bed, or maybe there was a girl in the room all of a sudden, but no matter how much I counted the sheep and tossed and turned, I couldn't fall asleep.

There was a bit of a lot going on today, and it weighed on my mind for a long time, causing my mind to keep thinking about it.

Since I couldn't sleep, I roughly sorted out what I saw.

According to information found online, Minecraft: Real Mode hasn't changed much other than the addition of artificial intelligence. It still doesn't have the ability to generate maps with random seeds, so Mojang has designed 15 different limited maps for players to explore.

But unlike the first version, this version of Microsoft has set up a server for it that contains those 15 maps. In this way, Minecraft has both online and offline gameplay.

There is no difference between offline documentary machines, while online is much more lively. According to online posts, players on the server simply played Minecraft as H1Z1 and survival as PvP.

All kinds of bandit behavior is rampant in the server, and players are enclosing people and forming groups to expand their territory. Among them, Huaxia players are the most powerful, occupying five maps in the server.

After receiving a large number of complaints from players, Microsoft had no choice but to turn on the server's ban on hitting. However, the change of rules can't stop the people full of wisdom, since I can't beat people, then I will use TNT to blow up, scald with magma, burn with fire, flood with water, bury with sand, use piston cards, in short, I can kill people.

Until finally, someone invented a method: to train legions of monsters and drive them to attack players of other forces.

Because of artificial intelligence, the monsters in this generation of MC versions can communicate with humans and think independently. Therefore, some players take advantage of this and train a large number of monsters to drive ......

Wait a minute! I know!

Thinking of this, I seem to understand where this incident started in the afternoon!

In the article "Beauty Experts Pointed Out: "MSI 2" May Lead to the Extinction of Mankind", it was mentioned that Microsoft has always stated that there is no way for the intelligent individuals in it to survive to a time when the ability level is higher than that of humans, because players will nip the monsters that grow up in the bud.

But once the player keeps the monster in captivity and trains, the monsters will be able to survive for a much longer time and learn more.

And these monsters will be constantly screened in the player-to-player war, just like raising Gu, whoever survives longer will learn more.

In the long run, there will inevitably be a "king of artificial intelligence" in the end!

And what kind of impression will such a "king" have on humanity? Humans trained them only to be driven to use them as tools to kill, and they were kept in one place every day, ready to be sent at any time. If you don't obey at the slightest, you will add a sword to your body, or even kill it casually.

And the ability of this "king" must not be underestimated, and he can survive so many battles, even humans may not be able to do it.

And the scariest thing is that this afternoon, the servers were taken over by artificial intelligence, what does this mean?

It's scary to think about!

As I stared at the unfathomable darkness around me, I was reminded of the plot of the movie "The Terminator" - in 2029 AD, the nuclear-wiped Earth has been ruled by the computer "Skynet", and humanity has been almost wiped out.

This year is 2022, can it be said that ......

After a lot of thoughts, the sleepiness that I hadn't felt for a long time finally hit, and I fell asleep in a daze.

……

I don't know how long later, my mobile phone next to my pillow suddenly rang loudly, and I was instantly pulled out of my sleep. When I opened my eyes, Nima, it was still dark!

MDZZ, three watches in the middle of the night, which stinky boy called me?! I finally fell asleep!

I picked up my phone and looked at it - Bronne?!
