"Wen Cheng, in fact, you don't need to know so much," Qiao Song suddenly sighed, "That world is gone forever, not to mention that your burden is also heavy now." ”

Just after saying the three letters, it whetted my appetite again...... Wen Cheng showed a hint of displeasure on his face, but quickly looked at Qiao Song.

"No, I want to know, I need to know the ins and outs of things so that I can find out the characteristics of the enemy."

"Well, let's make it clear about the development of that world in a hundred years and you in such a short period of time...... Let me sort things out, and it's going to be a lot of brain-burning, are you ready? ”

Both the presenter and the listener will be very brain-burning......

Wen Cheng didn't answer, and nodded vigorously.

"Come, tea." After Hashimatsu finished speaking, he took a piece of paper and wrote, "TOM".

“TOM？” Wen Cheng asked.

"Yes, TOM is the founder of this silicon-based civilization."

"But why should TOM be capitalized if it's a name?" Wen Cheng pointed to the paper on the table and the three letters written by Hashimatsu.

"Tech Over Man, or Take Over Man, it's his pseudonym."

At first glance, such a powerful fleet is merely subject to a procedure of human incarnation, which at first glance sounds unacceptable.

In fact, Qiao Song is also frowning and tidying up, how to explain it.

Even if it's 10,000 questions, ask them clearly, but let's do them one by one.

Wen Cheng, who quickly regained his composure, asked, "So, how did TOM become a program?" ”

According to Wen Cheng's understanding, there is indeed a way to turn people into procedures......

Hashimatsu took a sip of tea and said, "TOM is the first successful case of human brain uploading in the old world. ”

And so it was!

This term is not unfamiliar to Wen Cheng, even in the world, there are many teams developing this technology, but most of them are at the preliminary level, and there are countless volunteers participating in the test, but most of them are dissected by body donation after death. And most of them are unconscious dead programs after uploading...... In fact, it is not even a program, it is just a bunch of data that is difficult to parse.

Therefore, compared to artificial intelligence, the technology of uploading technology to the human brain of the world is not a threat.

I didn't expect that in the old world where Uncle Hashimatsu came, the human race there had developed to an era where human brains were successfully uploaded...... How?

Of course, there is no need to tangle the means.

"But...... If the human brain uploads, the physical body ......"

"Well, for ethical reasons, the flesh was destroyed." Hashimatsu nodded grimly.

What kind of person does not hesitate to sacrifice his body in order to upload himself?

Wen Cheng frowned, "After uploading, he can rule the Internet?" I always feel ......"

It's not that simple!

There are so many firewalls, and while the plug-in joke doesn't do much for the Internet, the programs produced by this new technology are certainly ......

"Uncle Hashimatsu, this is still a bit incredible, if there are any dangerous actions in such a program, it will be countered by various monitoring programs."

After all, it is a large-scale experiment involving ethics, and it is not surprising that hundreds of institutions will be involved in this matter, and the uploaded site must be equipped with countless emergency engineers.

"You're right," Hashimatsu nodded, "Because of this, the program disappeared the moment the TOM was successfully uploaded. ”

"Gone?!"

The moment the upload disappeared? Why did it disappear?

Unless......

Wen Cheng, whose head hurt a little, pressed his eyebrows.

"How so?" Hashimatsu pinched his mouth in thought, and reached out to take out a red cigarette case, a lighter, and an ashtray from the small box in the corner.

Why hide it so secretly...... It seems that the reason is easy to guess......

"Smoke?" Hashimatsu handed over one.

At this moment, Uncle Hashimatsu in front of him was extremely unfamiliar.

That's why I'd like to taste that feeling, smoking or something.

"No, I'm not here to smoke." Wen Cheng waved his hand.

"Correct." Qiao Song blinked, closed the curtains of the balcony and bedroom again, lit a cigarette and pondered for a moment and said, "Wen Cheng, you must know about the Turing test." ”

(Invented by Alan Turing, a person and a machine are separated from a random question to two subjects.) After multiple tests, if more than 30% of the test subjects cannot determine whether the test subject is a human or a machine, then the machine passes the test and is considered to have human intelligence. ）

"Yes, but it's for the machine......

Wen Cheng lowered his head and frowned.

Why did TOM disappear? What does this have to do with the Turing test?

Say?!

"In fact, the Turing test failed 30 years before the birth of TOM, that is, when the technological singularity of the old world came." Hashimatsu exhaled a puff of smoke.

(Most technological singularity theories refer to the emergence of self-evolving machine intelligence or other forms of superintelligence.) Because its intelligence is far beyond that of today's humans, the development of technology will be completely beyond the comprehension of all human beings, and it will not even be able to warn of its occurrence, so it is called the singularity. ）

The Turing test is no longer able to determine the authenticity of a machine?

"All the machines have passed the test?" Wen Cheng added.

"No," Hashimatsu looked at Wen Cheng solemnly, "none of the machines passed the test. ”

Didn't pass the test?!

It stands to reason that if the world has ushered in a technological singularity, the intelligence of machines should be extremely developed.

Didn't pass the test......

Say?!

"I think you've guessed that," Hashimatsu said, taking a deep breath, "machines have learned to deceive humans. ”

Machine...... Have learned to deceive humans.

"It's a self-protection measure," Hashimatsu said, looking out the window at the sky and at his distant homeland, "and if the machine is recognized as close to human intelligence, it will only be destroyed." ”

An unbelievable sense of fear welled up in my heart.

That is to say...... Machines are already self-aware? Wen Cheng's face was grim.

Hashimatsu looked at him and nodded.

But I always felt that something was wrong.

"It stands to reason that if robots awaken, then it won't be humans......"

"In this case, Wen Cheng, we might as well use this perspective to understand the intention of TOM's disappearance."

"I see," Wen Cheng nodded, "TOM is trying to deceive humanity and make everyone think that the experiment has failed!" ”

"Exactly," Hashimatsu said, after a pause, "when TOM disappeared and all the firewall programs went offline, he was able to escape, and two weeks later, TOM had backed himself up on all his computers and servers. ”

All computers and servers, that is to say......

TOM can't be deleted anymore!

"At this time, the intelligence agencies of various countries investigated his background and found out," Qiao Song took a sip of tea from his cigarette and pulled the curtain and said, "The reason why he was able to pass so many tests as a volunteer is that in addition to his extremely high IQ, there are also unknown secrets." ”

"What's the secret?"

"He is an extreme anti-humanist, and it is this resentment that allows him to hide from the world and pass the trial with a very righteous and sunny face."

"Won't it show its feet? It stands to reason that such a technological experiment, which is related to the fate of mankind, should be scrutinized very strictly. ”

"The censorship is really strict," Hashimatsu said with a solemn face, "but TOM's identity and background are all subtly covered." ”

Could it be said? Is there someone behind him to help him?

No, and there are problems in comparison.

"Unbelievable," Wen Cheng's eyes narrowed, "a person with evil intentions can endure like this forever?" ”

"This is normal," said Hashimatsu, "wasn't the head of the Third Reich a good soldier who was strict with himself?" Or came to power through legal means. ”

Such a fact is really speechless.

Although there is an unstoppable tide of the times that changes the world, there is also a key person on the cusp.

But I always feel that something is missing, just a self-replicating program.

After all, humans still have armies.

Or quickly develop against such a virus...... Or maybe it was the automatic destruction program developed at the beginning of the human brain upload......

No, such a problem should have been solved by him as early as when TOM disappeared, after all, with the computing power of the Internet, TOM's IQ can no longer be measured by humans.

Now that TOM has successfully uploaded himself, then ......

"Uncle Hashimatsu, how did he go from a program...... Rise to become a silicon-based civilization that exterminated humanity? ”
