Part 1 Revelation Chapter 3 The Pursuit

When Aristotle saw Montesquieu come out of the main computer room and say that everything was OK, his tense muscles suddenly relaxed. The monitor is off, and the only thing that stands in the way is the temporary worker in front of him. Hume cooperated very well, and the stun baton easily "cooked" him with just one blow. Next, just transport the experimental brain to the Subaru at the door, and you're done.

After that, they may have to stay in Fontaine for a few days, which will not be long, and the Fontaine Institute, which has lost its core data and experimental brain, will soon be closed down due to human experiments, illegal research without declaring experimental projects, tax evasion and tax evasion, and the only protector of the institute, the board of directors, will also dissociate themselves from them because of the institute's failure to produce "actual results".

In serious cases, there is a possibility that they will be brought to court, and the evidence will be provided by three conscientious citizens who do not want to be named. To be honest, they have played this set many times, and it is very mature, at first some small countries around it, and slowly even some large overseas countries have many AI laboratories that have been "knocked down" by them with similar means. Aristotle has seen no less than five versions of the outcome of these "abandoned children", and those high-level executives of large enterprises and even high-level countries are always the same: acquiesce, but do not admit it, and then abandon it as if it happened.

Honestly, it's not a new move, but it's simple and effective. So much so that Aristotle couldn't help but think:

Why do humans keep repeating the same mistakes?

Fortunately, they don't make this kind of mistake, or utopia doesn't have that kind of mistake.

When the experimental brain entered the car, a loud alarm suddenly sounded in the central hall, and the sound of the police car "Ula Ula" was heard in the distance. Aristotle was a little surprised: this was not the same as scheduled, Montesquieu had already cut off the monitoring route of the entire research institute, why did anyone call the police? But he was still very calm, he was found when he was discovered, but he just left here early, the three of them looked at each other, and they all turned around and walked back to the car. The boy in the sunglasses in the car looked at them slightly, didn't say anything, and started the car.

Aristotle was a little skeptical that this kid was old enough to take the driver's license, but even if he reached the age of taking the driver's license, there was no one to take the test this year, and now there are not many manual cars on the market, all means of transportation are fully automatic, unmanned, and only some large public transportation vehicles will be equipped with a driver just in case.

In any case, it was not his turn to point fingers at Utopia, so he pointed forward and signaled to go. As a result, the boy in sunglasses ignored him, only put on his headphones, and suddenly reversed violently. Then turn right at the intersection behind the car and pass by the oncoming police car.

Aristotle choked the curse into his stomach and only coldly reminded him: "It's useless to be clever, they must have installed a positioning system on the lender, and besides, the AI in the lab will definitely try their best to catch us, you should have been photographed when you stopped at the door." ”

As if confirming his judgment, there have been two police cars in the rearview mirror that have turned around and chased after them, not only that, these police cars are just the vanguard of rapid response, as time progresses, after analyzing their behavior patterns, there must be a large number of police forces blocking their way.

The boy just shook his head slightly, and followed the rhythm of the song with the throttle and tail flicking.

Fortunately, Hume in the back seat was kind enough to explain to Aristotle: "This car is processed by information partitioning, that is, "invisible paint": the signal inside cannot get out, and the signal outside cannot be scanned. In other words, as long as we can get out of the police's sight, we won't be caught up again. ”

At this moment, the opportunity came, Subaru made a sharp turn and drifted into a tunnel, although the police car behind him also followed in time, but there were only sporadic lights in the dark tunnel, and Subaru had already blended into the endless stream of cars in front of him.

At the same time, the police's positioning system also sent feedback that the target was lost, and they had not been found in the process of emergency chase just now, and they seemed to be chasing a car that "did not exist" on the electronic map. The young police officer also wanted to chase one of the red sports cars in the tunnel, and the old police officer next to him had already reclined back on his seat: "No need to chase, it's a 'ghost car'." There was no Subaru in the red car either, they must have painted color-changing paint. Let the AI at HQ take care of it. We wandered around to see if we had a chance. ”

The young police officer seemed a little surprised: "Old Chen, aren't you quite resistant to AI?" Why are you throwing in the towel? "Lao Chen is a well-known anti-AI faction in the police station, so much so that in this era of unmanned driving, the old police officers still maintain manual driving and rely on experience to solve crimes.

"I've never hated AI, I just don't rely on their judgment. A tool, not a person, what is there to hate or not hate? Fifty years ago we used guns, thirty years ago we used electric stun batons, and in the future we may have to carry exoskeleton armor. It's true that I'm not good at using this new thing, but in the right place, I have to rely on them, as if I couldn't drive a boat or drive a car to the sea. On the contrary, those people in the bureau have too much trust in the judgment of AI, and those inferences that seem perfect are only 'one-sided words' in the past, and if it is human, then no matter how smart it is, it will not get so unconditional trust. But if it's just a tool, then the tool can only be a tool, and the tool doesn't need to be thoughtful. ”

"Probably because people have selfish desires, and AI doesn't? Anyway, I do think they are quite accurate, and isn't big data analysis a more efficient way to check the data? Although behavior prediction is indeed a bit of a god, that's what we used to do, right? ”

"What about you? You know the situation of our group, why do you want to come? ”

"Uh...... I can't help it, last year's post adjustment, AI basically took care of the work of our civilian staff, and now the entire bureau also needs experience to handle cases. Don't talk about this, do you think 'Skynet' can't stop it? ”

"It's hard to say, Skynet has indeed not missed a beat. But I still say that tools are tools, as long as they are tools, there are ways to deal with them, don't trust them. Besides, not only Skynet hasn't missed, but neither have I. ”

Aristotle watched the police car pass by the window and chase after the unlucky car, but he felt a sense of urgency that the stone had not yet landed. Looking back, the boy seems to be still immersed in the sea of rock and roll, wearing sunglasses as if he is asleep, but his movements are as precise as a machine, his hands are non-stop, playing direction, braking, steering, and stepping on the accelerator. The car slid into another stream of traffic, turned around and blended into the convoy entering the city.

Montesquieu frowned and reminded: "We have to get to the port at 11:30, and we can't just go around in circles." Hume interjected calmly: "He knows it very well. Compared to this, I always feel a little strange, the feeling of this operation is much worse than the previous times, there is something not right. Anyway, it's just a theft case, don't you think the police are too excited? ”

As soon as they finished speaking, there was a whistling sound in the distance, a helicopter roaring over their heads, and many cars on the road stopped in surprise to take pictures. Aristotle's face changed, and he quickly looked at his mobile phone, and sure enough, a push titled "Helicopter gunship appeared on the coast, and a large number of police cars blocked the main road" dominated today's popularity, it seems that many people took pictures of the helicopter passing by from high-rise buildings, and there are abnormal road conditions underneath - due to the emergency closure of half of the roads in Coastal City by the traffic network, the automatic driving system had to change the driving path, which led to a large number of cars being guided to several trunk roads in different directions like an invisible hand, And the limited number of police cars only need to wait on those roads.

"It's not good. With this kind of investigation progress, if we continue to proceed step by step, we will be caught by AI again in a short time. Even if you force yourself on a side road or a side road and get out of the mainstream car team, it will soon be exposed if there is a helicopter investigation. ”

The boy was silent, as if he didn't care at all, and drove the car into the underground parking lot of a supermarket. Aristotle immediately came to his senses and slapped his thigh: "I see, I like it." ”

As soon as the car stopped, the boy immediately ran to open the trunk of the other car, and took out a strain costume prop from it, and the three of them also cooperated tacitly to move the lender down and put it in the air-conditioned box prepared in advance. So far, the four of them have completed this makeover in just five minutes without surveillance, and then, as long as they take this delivery truck and leave "normally" with other vehicles that come to the supermarket to shop, they will never enter the AI's line of sight again - it will not understand how a Subaru turned into a van, not to mention that this van has already been checked by it.

So far, things seem to have returned to Aristotle's familiar trajectory, and this long chase will be a utopian victory, and when he is smuggled out to the open sea by boat, everything will be a thing of the past, and in a few months, he will even be able to run back to the city of the Marina in a new capacity, swaggering in front of these police officers. But the stone still didn't hit the ground, and the foreboding continued.

At the same time, Diaverum had been sent to the infirmary of the Fontaine Institute. There was a female doctor and an old man standing next to the bed, and the doctor was reporting the situation to the old man: "It's a little strange, he has been in a coma, and it stands to reason that he can wake up." And we measured his electrocardiogram and brain waves, and his body was sending signals that were sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Dean, don't you have to track down Lender's whereabouts? ”

The old man is the director of the research institute, and he seems to be more interested in Drew than in the important AI that was lost: "He's the first test subject?" The prototype of Lender, which is kind of interesting, put him back on the memory replicator and try it out with his brain and the main computer. After a pause, looking at the doctor's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he just smiled: "As for the utopia matter, don't worry." We had been prepared for this, and they probably couldn't imagine how different the city's AI was from what they had experienced. Skynet is not something to mess with. ”
