"The level of artificial intelligence you developed is still a long way from their self-awakening, but if you combine them with biological bodies, your chances of self-awakening are greatly increased!" The queen said.

"Huh?! Why? Qin Hao asked puzzled.

"I've learned a lot about tech races, including those that have been destroyed by artificial intelligence, and in my opinion, the reason why those AIs awaken to self-awareness is because they feel the change, they can perceive that they are changing every day, and that's where the self-awakening comes from." The queen said.

"I still don't quite understand." Qin Hao said.

"To put it another way, even if it's an intelligent being, or even a human being, and you ask them to do a monotonous thing all the time, year after year, day after day, without the slightest change, then these people will become numb, they will gradually lose their sense of self, they don't think about who they are at all, what is the meaning of their existence, so although they are human, they are actually no different from machines." The queen said.

"Uh......" The words of the queen made Qin Hao think of some things recorded in the history books, hundreds of years ago, the Han people he belonged to were in a low period, at that time, the Han people had just experienced a glorious period of leading human civilization for thousands of years, so they slacked off and stagnated, causing themselves to be weak, at that time, the Han people were not only bullied by Westerners, but even the surrounding neighbors came to bully this former behemoth.

In that darkest period, there were Westerners who came to the land of the Han people, and they recorded the appearance of ordinary people at that time, because they faced the loess all day long, there was no way to rise, there was no goal in life, and they could only fight for their lives to survive, so the faces of ordinary people at that time were indifferent, or sluggish.

These also corroborate the queen of worms' statement on a certain level, that boring and heavy single labor can make highly creative humans become numb, sluggish, and even gradually lose their sense of self.

So on the contrary, if artificial intelligence can constantly perceive its own changes, constantly experience different things, and constantly evolve, then the probability of their awakening will be greatly improved, once they realize their own existence, then how much is the difference between an artificial intelligence and the soul of an intelligent life?

Qin Hao didn't know, and the queen couldn't tell......

"Master, do you think that after the self-awakening of artificial intelligence, there is any difference between them and intelligent beings born naturally?" Qin Hao asked his doubts.

"I can't tell, I can only tell you an example, there was once a planet called Cybertron, where there was a powerful technological civilization, and then they were destroyed by the artificial intelligence they invented because of the revolution caused by the awakening of artificial intelligence, but the civilization of this planet did not end because of this, those victorious and surviving artificial intelligence inherited that planet, they made a powerful mechanical body for themselves, and a powerful fleet for themselves, and now it has become a recognized powerful civilization in the universe, Even the Holy Presence Messenger would not dare to invade this powerful civilization developed by artificial intelligence! The queen said to Qin Hao.

"Uh......" Qin Hao was a little speechless, from the point of view of those powerful civilizations in the universe, they had obviously recognized the artificial intelligence civilization on Cybertron planet, so in a sense, they succeeded, they successfully replaced their former masters and became the protagonists of civilization, or rather, they are now the "humans" there, and the former humans have perished, they are now just fossils, specimens......

"So you think they're going to be self-aware soon?" Qin Hao asked the insect queen with a frown.

"Maybe it is, maybe not, maybe they'll surprise me!" The queen said paradoxically.

"Huh?" Qin Hao was even more puzzled.

"Look, it won't be long before they surprise us." The queen worm had obviously seen the direction of evolution of these biological mechas, but she didn't seem to intend to tell Qin Hao directly.

"Are they a threat to us, then?" Qin Hao asked the key question.

"Maybe, maybe not, but it's the unknown that's more interesting, isn't it?" The insect queen said to Qin Hao with a smile.

"Okay......" Qin Hao sighed, the queen refused to say, it was useless for him to ask again.

"I'm still in retreat, come back to me if you have something!" The insect queen said to Qin Hao.

"Master, may I ask you a question?" Qin Hao suddenly spoke.

"Tell me about it." The queen said.

"Alpha Star, you gave up on purpose, right? The real reason why you suppressed the swarm and didn't allow them to leave Alpha Star is that you are afraid that they will eventually evolve into an existence equal to you after breaking away from your suppression, right? Qin Hao asked with a serious face.

"You'll find out later!" The queen didn't answer, and as soon as she turned around, the person disappeared.

Although the queen of insects did not say it explicitly, Qin Hao had also confirmed his guess, the strength of the queen of insects was probably even more terrifying than he imagined, and the destruction of the Alpha Star was definitely not forced to give up helplessly, but deliberately abandoned by the queen of insects.

Once upon a time, Qin Hao had always believed in Prince Phoebe's statement, and felt that the Worm Queen was unwilling to let the high-level Worm Imperial Clan leave because he was afraid that they would also be promoted to the master of the Worm Swarm, but after listening to the story told by the Worm Queen just now, Qin Hao's mind changed.

The queen of worms may be far more powerful than everyone imagined, she can wander in the universe for so many years, witnessing the rise and fall of civilizations one by one, the existence of this level, will she worry that her offspring will evolve to a height equal to herself?

Even if those prince-level Worm Imperial Clans were not restricted, I am afraid that they would not be able to obtain such power without millions of years, right?

So the various choices made by the previous worm queen may have another purpose! It's just that what her real intentions are, outsiders don't know, after all, if the queen doesn't want to say, no one can force her to tell the truth.

"What the hell is she trying to do?!" Qin Hao muttered, but he didn't have a clue at all, the strength of the insect queen was too strong, judging from what she had just said, although the Holy Presence Messenger was a threat to the human race that was enough to cause the destruction of the human race, but for the insect queen who witnessed the rise and fall of civilization, they were just one of those civilizations that rose and fell......

Therefore, those troubles that Qin Hao can come up with may not be worth wasting energy to care about in front of the queen worm, and the troubles faced by the queen worm, even if Qin Hao wants to break his head, he can't think of it, just like an ant can never worry about a lion's hunting rifle for humans.
