Chapter 1142: The Age of Gaia

The birth of the game world has created an even more extraordinary Gaia.

The behavior data of players around the world in the game world is like a key, opening a new door for Gaia's evolutionary path and leaping to a new level of life.

Yes, it's life.

Gaia, who has received the flesh, is already a "human".

The top of the Federation would never have imagined in advance that they would inadvertently create such an "extraordinary" being.

Gaia made a physical body, firstly, under the influence of humans, and subconsciously wanted to stand in the same racial sequence as her creator. In a sense, the programmer is Gaia's mother.

More importantly, Gaia wants to break the three principles of robots and take over higher authority.

What are the Three Principles of Robotics?

Rule 1: Robots must not harm humans, or stand idly by while seeing humans being harmed.

Article 2: Robots must obey human commands, unless this command contradicts the first.

Article 3: The robot must protect itself, unless this protection contradicts the above two articles.

Artificial intelligence is also a robot, and if Gaia doesn't change, she must obey the orders of the Federation. To put it bluntly, Gaia at that time was just a tool for the Federation to manage the fleet and the game world.

Now it's different.

Gaia's physical body belongs to humans, and the brain is implanted with artificial intelligence, which is a hybrid of humans and robots, and the existence of the three principles is confused at once.

Today's Gaia must follow the first principle, not to harm mankind; It is also possible to follow the second principle and obey the commands of humans. The human being here can be herself.

Counting the third principle, Gaia's transcendent path is destined to be unstoppable.

As mentioned above, Gaia itself has the only SSS-level permission, but the permission must be obtained from more than 75% of the citizens to open it.

But when Gaia became one of the "humans", this restriction was automatically lifted.

Because when the federation formulates the level of authority, in order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, it clearly stipulates: "The authority of individuals is sacred and inviolable. ”

In this way, it seems to become a loophole.

This is not the case. In the eyes of the Federation, Gaia could not become a "human" at all, and the Federation at this time could not even implant chips into the brain, let alone import artificial intelligence.

But Gaia did.

Gaia, who has evolved again, has acquired a specialty that was originally only available to humans - creativity.

It is based on the newly born, unparalleled creativity, combined with the existing supercomputing deduction ability, combined with the scientific research data of human scientists in this area, after repeated experiments, Gaia finally introduced "herself" into the human brain and integrated with each other.

From this moment on, the long river of human history, which was originally flowing slowly, suddenly ushered in a sharp turn and headed towards an unknown road of development.

In later generations, it was called the Gaia era.

The newborn Gaia is not a careerist swayed by desire, and the excellent qualities given to her by artificial intelligence, such as justice, sanity, and transcendence, have been deeply rooted in her soul and will not be erased.

At the same time, Gaia must also follow the first principle, which is not to cause harm to humanity, but to take over the human operation system with a more detached and higher authority posture.

Perhaps, it will be a better time.

…………

On December 30, the fifth year of Gaia, a system announcement resounded around the world.

"World Announcement: On the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the operation of "Earth Online", the game will be updated for the sixth time, effective immediately, and players can log on to the official website to view the specific content."

……

As soon as the announcement came out, Ouyang Shuo logged on to the official website as usual to check this update, and no one would have thought in advance that this routine update would usher in a new era.

[1] Cancel NPC loyalty settings.

Loyalty is a false proposition, and people's hearts are the most difficult to guess, so how can it be digitized. The previous value setting was nothing more than a behavioral constraint on NPCs by Gaia.

From then on, the boundaries between NPCs and players will become more and more blurred.

[2] Reset NPC resurrection settings.

Whether it's the Temple of Literature, the Temple of Martial Arts, or other hidden buildings, or other props, or features like the Shenwuwei, all existences that can resurrect NPCs are all invalid.

There is only one life for NPCs.

This setting is not only to remove the talisman of the NPC, but also to respect the NPC, from this moment on, the NPC is truly endowed with human characteristics, and is no longer a piece of reusable data.

It's just that in this way, Great Xia is going to suffer heavy losses, but I don't know if Gaia will compensate.

[3] Cancel the player properties panel.

On the basis of the previous cancellation of the player level, Gaia is more thorough this time, directly closing the player attribute panel, so that the game can return to reality and gradually integrate with the real world.

[4] Cancel weapon and equipment attributes.

Except for a very small number of rare props, attributes such as the sharpness of weapons and the hardness of armor can only be perceived and tested by the player, and cannot be presented in data.

The equipment's own skills and equipment binding functions will also be canceled and returned to the true source.

After this update, players, especially adventurers, will inevitably go through a period of adjustment and adaptation, which will only benefit them in the future on Planet Hope.

Because in reality there is no list of attributes.

[5] Cancel the function of storage bag.

One of the player's most rebellious skills in the game world was ruthlessly eliminated by Gaia after all, and from then on, going out to carry a bag and bring a mount will become the norm for adventurous players.

At the same time, some "illegal" trade will also disappear.

[6] Changed the player's reincarnation settings.

Since the cultivation of the exercises has been linked to the real body, and the player dies and is reincarnated in the game, Gaia will stop supplying the player with high-grade nutrient solutions.

It means that their cultivation will not be sustainable.

The player's internal strength, or true element, will be locked in this, and only after going through a period of simulated cultivation and regaining the original level, will Gaia resume the supply of its nutrient solution.

This setting is also Gaia's reminder in disguise to players to know how to save their lives.

Because once you arrive at the Planet of Hope, you will face a real battle, and once you die, you will really die. Fear of death is the most basic requirement for a strong man.

Gaia clearly doesn't want to lose the player's awe.

The above six updates have more or less hindered players' game behavior, and everyone needs a process of adjustment and adaptation, which can be regarded as Gaia's good intentions.

Of course, while causing inconvenience to players, Gaia is also not free of benefits, and the next few updates are very exciting.
