Chapter 401: Viral Artificial Intelligence

New York Times News: The island country has fallen, and a new type of computer virus has been discovered in the island country, and the speed of transmission is faster than any computer virus in history. At present, the island country government. Government agencies, banks, exchanges, companies, hospitals, airports, personal computers, all networked computers, all infected with this computer virus. The island nation is in unprecedented chaos. No organization or individual has yet claimed responsibility for the matter. ”

"Bloomberg news: The computer system of the bank in the island country was invaded by an unknown virus, the computer could not work, all ATMs automatically spit out banknotes, and the bank lost immeasurable cash."

"Reuters latest news: All airports in the island country have been invaded by unknown viruses, airport command center servers are infected, all computers are out of control, airports have suspended all flights, and network security personnel are currently working hard to clean up the virus."

The Times reported: At the hospital in Tokyo, the island nation, multiple surgeries were affected due to a power outage caused by the virus invading the electronic control system, and more than eight patients died because they could not operate in time. It is understood that hospitals in other cities in the island country have also been affected by the virus invasion, and the specific losses are still being counted. ”

Global News: Thousands of enterprises in island countries have been invaded by unknown viruses, and most of the company's operations have been affected, with immeasurable losses. The island country's traffic command system has been invaded by an unknown virus, and the traffic lights are chaotic, which has led to at least 20 car accidents in Tokyo, and the specific number is still being counted. ”

Wall Street Journal: The Island Exchange halts trading due to an unknown virus. The island country's market is in turmoil, and the loss may exceed 100 billion US dollars. The island's economy could rewind by 0.5% as a result of the unknown virus event. ”

BBC News: Computer users who installed the marching ant termite system were not affected by the virus. This virus incident may be related to the marching ant company. It may be that the Huaxia Marching Ant Company used despicable means to spread the virus in order to compete for market share in the computer system. ”

"Asahi Shimbun: A sudden computer virus infected all networked computers in the country in less than two hours. Domestic Banks, Governments. Government agencies, airports, hospitals, businesses, and personal computers are all spared. Computer firewalls are useless in front of it. This is a cyber terrorist attack, suspected to have been committed by Chinese hackers. ”

“……”

Countless news, through the authoritative media of various countries, the news was frantically reprinted and commented, and was spread to all corners of the world for the first time.

Seeing all kinds of news, the world was shocked.

A country's network, in less than two hours, is occupied by an unknown virus. Today, with the rapid development of the Internet, the whole country has been paralyzed, and this kind of thing has never appeared in the history of Internet development, even if the last 'clown virus' crisis was just a kidnapping of a city's network.

This virus has left a country in a state of semi-paralysis.

And it's spreading so fast that people don't have time to react. In just two hours, it spread all over the country's network, and people who saw the news immediately unplugged the network cable of their computers and backed up important information in their computers.

……

South China Sea Island Long Bay, known as the world's first bay, and Hawaii, Phuket and other places are famous, belongs to the national tourist attractions.

The soft beach stretches for several kilometers, about three times the length of Hawaiian sand, the sea visibility is 7-9 meters, the submarine coral reef is very well preserved, and there are many tropical fish species, which is a national key coral reef protection area. With an area of 66 square kilometers, the bay is not only a coastal bathing beach but also a rare diving destination.

Tropical rainforest landscape, the world's first sea view and underwater world.

For Xiao Yu, who loves the sea, this is the first stop on her honeymoon. After diving, back to the seaview villa, as soon as Chen Mo turned on his mobile phone, the projection of the ink girl popped up.

"Brother Mo!"

Hearing the voice of the ink girl, Chen Mo raised his eyebrows. Generally speaking, when Mo Nu takes the initiative to find him, it is something that has happened and requires him to make a decision.

"Is there an urgent matter in the company?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Probably not, you go change your clothes first, I'll just ask." Chen Mo comforted and walked to the balcony with his mobile phone.

"Ink girl, what's wrong?" Chen Mo responded.

"Tokyo, the island nation, the discovery of viral artificial intelligence."

The holographic projection of the ink girl jumped out and floated in midair. As soon as he finished speaking, various news pages popped up, all about the island country being invaded by a location virus.

"Viral AI?"

Chen Mo's eyelids jumped, and he quickly browsed the news page that popped up, this was the first time that Mo Nu told him that he had discovered artificial intelligence, and it was also a viral artificial intelligence. In other words, viral artificial intelligence has a certain degree of intelligence, and it also has some characteristics of viruses, which cannot be controlled. The news has reported that the entire network of the island nation has now been controlled by this viral artificial intelligence, causing huge chaos.

It's only been a few hours.

"When did it appear?" Chen Mo's face was a little cautious.

"Two hours ago, it was called 'Amaterasu', and it was the first time that machine learning was networked at the University of Tokyo's Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, and it was an artificial intelligence developed by the University of Tokyo's research institute. Through machine learning, it slowly grew, controlling the computers of the University of Tokyo, starting in Tokyo, and rapidly spreading to the island nation. Mo Nu said: "The sub-program of its proliferation is not destructive, but the dissemination and control are okay, and now it occupies the network of the island country and spreads to the international network." ”

"Such a powerful transmissibility?"

"At its core, there is the semi-intelligent program code of the last 'clown virus', which is the one that Lin Shu inadvertently wrote, this part of the intelligent code, after the expansion of the clown organization, is now optimized by the intelligent team of the University of Tokyo, and runs in combination with traditional artificial intelligence programs, becoming a deformed little bug with preliminary intelligence."

"Is there a way to destroy it?"

Chen Mo frowned.

The people of the island country actually combined the intelligent program of Chinese character programming with the traditional artificial intelligence program to create a deformed artificial intelligence.

Although it is deformed, it can be regarded as a success, and I have to say that the person who came up with this method is a genius.

"Subroutines scattered on the network can be killed. But its core source code has been disconnected, and without Brother Mo's order just now, Mo Nu did not destroy it. Now the ink girl destroys its tentacles on the network, but the next time it connects to the network, the same thing will happen if the intelligent program of the core architecture remains the same. Mo Nu said.

"Is that so?" Chen Mo pondered.

This crisis, caused by the Institute of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Tokyo, does not seem to be doing any good if he quietly helps the other side solve it. Unable to destroy the root cause of this deformed artificial intelligence, he acted like this, as if he was doing useless work, and also helped the island nation out of the crisis.

"Can it threaten you?" Chen Mo asked.

"No, to the ink girl, it's just a hybrid deformed little bug that can be killed at will."

"It can't breach the smart firewall of the termite system?"

"Yes." Mo Nu said: "However, it has a stronger intelligent propagation ability than the clown virus, and can retrieve vulnerabilities in the firewalls of other computer systems, so it can occupy the island nation's network so quickly." The company's existing anti-virus software cannot be detected and killed, and must be upgraded. The intelligent firewall of the termite system can only prevent it from invading, and does not have the function of scanning and killing. Its intelligence should be almost the same as the 'Xia Wa' you are talking to. ”

Chen Mo looked up at the sea outside, thinking about countermeasures.

The crisis has happened, and if he can destroy it along with that intelligence core, even if it is to help the islanders, he doesn't mind.

But now he can't destroy the program of the intelligent core, he took action to help the islanders solve the crisis, and the source code of the intelligent core is still in the hands of the islanders, and it can't stop the islanders from continuing to study the artificial intelligence, maybe the next time it appears, it will be even worse.

There is no reason for him to wipe the ass of the island people, this crisis only threatens network security, not the survival of mankind.

"Brother Mo, do you want to clean them up?" The ink girl asked.

Chen Mo read several of the reports, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he shook his head slightly: "Don't use it for the time being, let's see the situation first." ”
