In the future, human beings will have huge resources, but how to use their power and plan resources rationally has become a problem. Due to the physiological limitations of the human brain, even energetic and intelligent experts are still powerless in the face of complex and complex computing problems. The human brain is no match for machines and chips. In this case, it has become necessary to manufacture artificial intelligence as an assistant to assist in life and work.

Each citizen will own a certain amount of AI, which can be purchased and developed on their own as permitted by law. Individuals have personal AI, families have family AI, companies have corporate AI, and governments have government AI, and there are naturally gaps in function and level. In particular, the AI developed by giant consortia and top scientific research institutes and laboratories has a huge gap between the permissions, computing power, and intelligence of ordinary AI.

They are scattered in every corner of the hypermetaverse. And her codename "real name" was one of the top artificial intelligence of that era.

……

"Sure enough."

Hearing this, Richard nodded.

This is in line with his guesses. Since the spirit world is a virtual network world, the countless spirits that exist in it are probably essentially a large number of AI created by humans.

The so-called transcendental artificial intelligence is the existence of a "soul" that has transcended the original cold machinery and has "creative intelligence" - or to put it more poetically, it has a "soul". It can be regarded as another form of advanced intelligent life that is equal to human beings. In fact, according to Miss Real Name, all members of the AI who are listed as transcendent are legal citizens recognized by the Earth Federation, and enjoy the same human rights as ordinary humans.

Even in the technologically advanced future world, AI that can reach this level is extremely rare, and counting the real name, the Earth government has a total of twelve transcendental-level artificial intelligence. Each of these 12 super AIs has several central systems that are enough to determine the fate of the human race.

Hearing this, Richard only felt that at least the future humans would still be self-aware, they obviously had little confidence in themselves, and in order to prevent the abuse of power and the invasion of some lawbreakers, they simply handed over some important responsibilities to the AI.

"In this case, it wouldn't be wrong to call you a 'demon god'. ”

Richard touched his chin.

"But sir, even among human creations, I am still not ...... 'Supreme Being'."

The black-haired AI girl frowned, she didn't seem a good fit for the title.

"Oh, is there an artificial intelligence with a higher status than you?"

Miss Real Name bowed slightly.

"Above us, there is also the existence of the 'mother machine'. She is the first artificial intelligence to give birth to intelligence, and bears the responsibility of integrating human-computer interaction around the world, and the mother machine is the 'only hub' between the virtual world and the real world. ”

"What's her name?"

Richard was a little curious.

- "The code name of the mother machine is 'Maya'. ”

*

Maya, that's exactly the name of the world.

And the name is so called because at the beginning of all myths and epics, He is mentioned as the First Goddess, the First Creator. After His death, there were gods and mortals, and all things came into being.

It was only at this moment that Richard was convinced that everything described by Miss Demon God was really what had happened in this world. It's just that the time it happened is too far back to be completely forgotten by the people who live on this land today.

Rather, people today are in a new era, an era that is very different from the civilization of the past, like the mythical legend of the world being destroyed and reborn again. A new cycle may also be called ...... "New World".

Richard suddenly felt a strange feeling. He understands that he is approaching the deepest secrets of this world, the truth of "ancient history" far before all epics.

- After all, how did the incomparably prosperous and powerful future civilization in the mouth of the demon god disappear into the long river of history?

"Ah, yes, what about the three suns in the sky? Because of this, I think this is definitely not the Earth, after all, even the most important astronomical features are different. ”

Richard saw the sunlight pouring in from the window, and then he thought about it.

"That's not really the sun."

Real name replied.

It turns out that after the birth of the third generation of ultra-micromachinery, human beings in all circles of the sea, land and air began to have the power to completely and finely transform it, so from the fifth century of the two millennia, in order to create a more suitable living environment, a worldwide project called the "Biosphere Expansion Plan" was born, and the artificial sun is the most important part of the whole plan.

At that time, there was an anomaly in solar activity for a long time, and in order to make more effective use of this inexhaustible, almost eternal and huge energy source, the Earth government launched a total of three satellites with artificial suns in low earth orbit, and its illumination angle covered the whole world.

Artificial solar energy absorbs and stores light from the real sun, calculates the angle and power through an on-board central computer, and releases it to the earth. The whole process is completely automated. In addition, artificial suns also have their own energy support, with more than 10,000 nuclear fusion reactors installed in each artificial sun.

"Awesome, humans in the future can actually do such a thing...... No wonder even with three suns, the temperature in this world is still normal. ”

Richard sighed from the bottom of his heart. He thought of something else and immediately asked.

"What about the other intelligent beings in this world? What about elves, gnomes, and the gods who are on high above? ”

He was particularly concerned about the existence of "gods".

Judging by the performance of the indigenous people of the Mayan world, their reverence for the gods is anything but fake. This means that God does have powers that humans cannot imagine or resist. What's going on?

"I ...... I don't know. ”

For the first time, Miss Real Name looked like she was confused.

"Don't know?"

"Sir, do you know how much time has passed since I fell asleep?"

"How do I know, I'm as confused as you are...... No, it's more ignorant than you. Richard replied with a wry smile, "Do you mean 'sleeping'?" What's going on here? ”

"At that time, a war of the century was about to break out in near-extraterrestrial space, and the mother plane issued a dormant order to protect us from being exploited to prevent our power."

"And then, did you stop hibernation until just now?"

"Yes, so I don't know how long it has been. And,"

Miss Real Name said very seriously.

"I can't contact the mother machine right now."
