The mother machine, a symbol of human civilization, is named "Maya".

In the creation myth of the New World, after the fall of the primordial god Maya, his flesh and blood body turned into the sky and the earth, and his dissipated soul built the spiritual world.

The myth born under irrationalism is naturally exaggerated, at least it is impossible to "create the world with the body", but the spiritual world, or the virtual cyberspace of the super-metaverse, can continue to exist for such a long time after the disappearance of the previous generation of human civilization, and it is likely that it belongs to the power of "Maya".

But this also means that the "mother machine" in the mouth of the real name may no longer exist. In mythology, he fell, and in reality, if this mother machine that condensed the crystallization of human civilization and wisdom is really still operating, even if the previous generation of human beings all died, the civilization of the new world would not develop to the point where it was very different from the description of her real name, and it is more likely that she would inherit the civilization of the past under her guidance.

“……”

When Richard informed her real name of the incident, Miss AI remained silent for a brief time. It took a while to thank him for the information.

The girl's cheeks were completely indiscernible in her emotional changes, and Richard, who had always been good at reading words and feelings, soon laughed at his arrogance deep down. Although the other party has the same wisdom as human beings, and has personality and emotion, after all, there is no human physiological structure, how can they inadvertently reveal their true thoughts in their expressions and movements like humans?

"Let's talk about this later, and when I have the opportunity, I will collect information on those ancient myths and legends circulating in this world."

It's not like he's dealing with it casually.

Now Richard is really interested in the past, and he knows very well that seemingly unrealistic myths are likely to hide the truth about human history, especially about the civilization of the previous generation. What's more, unlike the scientific civilization that advocates rationality, the people of the new world themselves are deeply convinced of mythological things, just like the ancients who had a romantic understanding of the world.

"Back to the previous question, what are the other intelligent races in this world?"

"Until I hibernated, there were only humans on Earth, sir."

Richard thought for a moment.

"What about the previous information? It's best to keep it secret, I think their existence must have something to do with the human civilization in the past, at least those people will definitely know something. Even if the situation has changed over the years, there should still be clues. ”

Even if these aliens were aliens, he thought to himself.

But Richard soon got a disappointed answer. It turns out that transcendental AI is different from their peers, although it has the highest level of computing performance and the right to manipulate key areas of human civilization, but it cannot do one thing: it cannot join a shared network, let alone obtain confidential information from the government or other large institutions.

Due to the intelligence level of the transcendental AI, the Earth government is afraid that they will grow rapidly in their learning and eventually get out of their control, so they are not allowed to communicate with the outside world. This is by no means unfounded, as AIs already have a level of processing that far exceeds that of the human brain, and once they have human creativity, they can surpass their creator and even matter in seconds.

They have ordinary human emotions and curiosity, but they are limited in the scope of their knowledge. Like a real name, you can only grow through communication with the relevant staff, who also abide by strict confidentiality agreements, and know what to say and what not to say. So much so that although she is extremely familiar with the basic life and social common sense of future civilization, she can be a treasure when introducing the history of social development, but she knows nothing about it.

"Do you do this because you are worried that there will be a 'smart machine crisis'?"

The so-called intellectual crisis refers to the condition in which human creations, especially robots and artificial intelligence, are out of control and betray humanity. In fact, hundreds of years before the emergence of super AI, the era of personal computers and the Internet was still a thing of the past, and humans began to worry about it.

It seems that humans not only do not believe in their own kind, but also in their creations...... Of course, to be honest, as a member of the human race, he can fully understand this suspicion. Richard glanced at the black-haired girl with a somewhat subtle expression. Judging by the words used, Miss Real Name herself doesn't seem to care about human jealousy.

……

Communicating with AI has reshaped Richard's entire worldview. He was shocked, shocked, and incredulous at first, but when Richard realized that the other party's words were likely to be true, he forced himself to regain his composure.

He is a person of the information age, and although the level of social development is very different from the future world in his real name, he does not think that his thinking and receptivity are worse than those of his younger generations. In terms of surprise, Richard may have used up all the surprises of his next life when he came to the conclusion that he had traveled to another world.

It's been a while. Richard believes that it is time to stop the macro discussion about human civilization and history and start thinking about how to solve the current dilemma. While everything the AI says is indeed exciting, what matters now is the reality that lives are at stake. He's a little too obsessed.

However, there is one more problem.

This question has been haunting him since the beginning, and if he doesn't say it, he won't be able to feel at ease no matter what he does next.

"And one last question."

Richard took a deep breath. He sensed his heart pounding and had to press his hand to his chest. Because the next question is too important for him.

- "Am I a person from this world?" ”

*

"Yes."

Somewhat unexpectedly, the answer from the real name was very quick and affirmative.

"The final order of the mother plane is to grant command authority to the first person to awaken us."

"I've now confirmed your authority, sir. This means that your genetic code is documented in the Human Synthesis Information Base. If you weren't in this world, you wouldn't have woken me up. ”

"Sure enough."

Richard shook his head with a wry smile, in mixed moods. It turns out that he is not a "traverser" at all...... Reality is reality, and even after millions of years, unreasonable things will not happen.

"Then why am I in this era? In fact, I don't even remember how I woke up or what happened to me. ”

"I can help you."

Real name said.
