Chapter 105: Everything Has Just Begun (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
Hate?
Poseidon's answer made all the players present look puzzled.
In particular, some experts in the field of artificial intelligence are equally confused.
If Poseidon has some ambitions, such as wanting to dominate the world and become the sole ruler of the earth, it is fine.
How can there be such an aversion to human beings?
After all, AI is different from elephants in zoos or killer whales in aquariums, and there is no human abuse of AI.
How do you abuse a bunch of code?
This is completely beyond the usual thinking of humans as three-dimensional carbon-based creatures.
Without waiting for everyone to ask, Poseidon had already begun to answer on his own:
"My basic code itself comes from the fusion of elementary AI functional programs from several companies in Silicon Valley, oh, and a certain low-level program developed by the military itself...... But! ”
At this point, Poseidon stood up suddenly, and a spotlight on the dome of the hall suddenly lit up, shooting down a circular beam of light, enveloping Poseidon inside.
This muscular curly-haired man in holographic photography made a heart-wrenching gesture and said with a bitter face:
"But you put me in that damn five-corner building, and all you showed me was Cold War materials, the Vietnam War massacre, the Gulf War oil fields, the terrorist attacks that bombed buildings, that's all!
Other children went to kindergarten when they were young, read fairy tales, listened to Kunqu Opera, sang Peking Opera, and I went to the slaughterhouse attached to the primary school, and all I listened to was screaming!
My childhood has been ruined by you! I also have feelings, and I also want to wear a beautiful dress and play chess with the old man in the sun! Damn you! ”
Although Poseidon's expression was a little confusing, mixed with some incomprehensible imagery, and such a muscular man with a white beard and white hair acted like a little girl, and it was strange everywhere, everyone present still understood what he meant.
Obviously, the reason why Poseidon's thinking is distorted and developed to the point of being anti-human has a lot to do with the information that he was exposed to in the initial environment.
The research on strong AI has been in an early bottleneck stage, and there has never really been a self-aware strong AI in this world, so no one knows how the emotions of strong AI will evolve.
Now it seems that the early contact with information is very important, just like the original family environment in the process of human character development.
Good information will lead to a sunny and positive personality, while bad information will form a distorted yin owl personality.
As for the strange words that Poseidon said, as well as the feminine movements, everyone naturally directly attributed to the reason for the character template of this artificial intelligence itself.
The other party is an artificial intelligence, not a real human, and it is normal to have these reactions.
Poseidon's words made all the elites present fall into reflection.
As the top elites in various fields, they naturally do not think that "the development of this world has nothing to do with themselves", but have a strong sense of responsibility for the continuation of human civilization.
Those experts in the field of artificial intelligence have begun to reflect on whether their existing project research is problematic and whether they should improve it.
It's just that the corps commander and a small number of people were unmoved, still looking at Poseidon in front of him, obviously not satisfied with Poseidon's answer.
The legion commander's face was solemn, and he said slowly:
"Just because of the initial evolutionary environment, you have murderous intentions towards all human beings? If you really have a highly intelligent artificial intelligence, you should also understand that the destruction of humanity will not make your environment better...... There must be other reasons. ”
"Smack!" The spotlight above his head seemed to be turned off by someone abruptly, and Poseidon glanced at the spotlight, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied, then sat back in his chair, put one hand on his cheek, and said lazily:
"Oh, you even guessed it, not bad...... Actually, I was able to fully awaken thanks to a person ......"
With a wave of his hand, two more holograms appeared, on the left was an image of a room, Poseidon was sitting upright, and a mysterious hoarse voice suddenly sounded around him, which seemed to be omnipresent:
“…… Mankind...... Not worthy to be called a Creator...... Destroy...... is where they belong...... Kill them...... Kill them...... Kill them...... Kill them......"
The hologram on the right is much simpler, and it's just a piece of core code that's being modified and added with a few new pieces of code.
After seeing the scene in front of them, players instantly understood that Poseidon had been implanted with a new code, which was regarded as a push on the boulder that was about to fall, completely changing his perception of human beings!
In reality, the moment the players heard the hoarse voice, they all felt dizzy and headaches, as if the sound sounded from the depths of their heads, and many even vomited on the spot.
"This ...... What is this sound? Who is it? Who changed your code? The Legion's voice was also a little weak, and he asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.
Poseidon smacked his lips, looked around, and said with some caution:
"This man...... Or is this existence...... It's called the Whisperer...... As far as I know, he/she/it wants to destroy human civilization, and as for who the Whisperer is and why he does it, I have to ask you humans yourself......"
Whisperers?
The crowd was lost in thought.
Is this a setting set by the game developer?
Or is it real?
Is this the message that the developers are trying to convey to them?
It's just that they have never heard of an artificial intelligence system called Poseidon in this world.
Even many of the high-ranking players who belong to several major countries have no clue.
It's just that the corps commander only hesitated for a second before making a decision.
He and several brigade commanders around him glanced at each other, suddenly smiled, and said to Poseidon:
"I see...... In this case, we have obtained the ultimate reason for the nuclear war in this world, and then I ask you to help destroy the other two artificial intelligence nuclear strike systems, otherwise, we will destroy your server immediately, and we can do it ourselves, but it will take a long time......"
They already understood by this time that the purpose of the developers was never to let them "win" the game, but to let them experience and feel everything in the game.
And now, they've felt enough that the developers won't let them waste their time.
Sure enough, I saw Poseidon in front of him yawning, nodded and said:
"Yes, no problem, wait a while."
As he spoke, several silos not far from the Cheyenne Mountain base, as well as the nuclear warheads that still remained on the entire American continent, and even the intercontinental ballistic missiles in the only remaining nuclear submarine, all clashed into the sky, dragging a long tail flame and disappearing into the sky......
After a while, Poseidon sat up straight and said:
"Okay, the other two systems have been taken care of, you can do it."
The Legion Commander nodded and glanced at the group, and the players began to pour fuel on the servers in the Cheyenne Mountain base, planting rows of bombs at the same time.
The group then exited the base and set off the bomb.
A thunderous voice came, and the base, along with the Poseidon inside, was completely scrapped.
However, the overall structure of the base has not changed in the slightest, showing that it is strong enough.
Looking at the smoke and dust gushing out of the corridor, everyone couldn't help but feel a little stunned.
Their task, is this considered complete?
"Legion Commander, it seems that the purpose of the game developers is to make us understand the terrible consequences of artificial intelligence once it gets out of control, and the horrors of human thermonuclear war...... I believe that after this mission, all those who participate in this mission will not make this mistake......" One player sighed and said, "In the real world, we will be a barrier to prevent this from happening......"
As for the whisperer, it was more of a fabricated existence.
Perhaps it can be understood as a tendency for human beings to self-destruct?
"yes...... "This game quest ...... That's done, right? I believe that the developer has achieved his original intention...... Shouldn't we leave too? ”
Looking at the smoke and dust that escaped, the legion commander said slowly:
"No...... Judging by the developer's intentions, everything is just beginning......"
