Chapter 754 - Intelligent Machinery Development Summit
For the changes in the United States, especially the promotion of smart machines, all countries in the world are seeing it in their eyes and keeping it in their hearts. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoNo one wants to see a world hegemon rise again, but they don't have the courage to make some trouble for this country at this time.
After all, emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and there are dangerous terrorists like Hydra hiding in the shadows. So at this time, no one has the heart to do the United States as a shield and expose themselves to the guns of Hydra. Besides, in this situation in the United States, not many people believe that he can stand up again.
But the fact is that with the promotion of smart machines, the United States does have a trend of recovery. While this made many people choose to wait and see, many people began to move. For example, Mexico and Canada are two countries.
As neighbors of the United States, these two countries have long relied on the United States to live on the nose. Canada, in particular, has almost assimilated into the United States. Therefore, when the United States suffered, the lives of these two neighbors were naturally not very easy.
On the one hand, there is a rupture of various channels within the past and the United States, and on the other hand, there are riots caused by panic.
The Hydra offensive is just a matter of caution for some powerful countries, but for these two countries, it is a fatal event. Both Canada and Mexico are very lacking in the hard power of the military, and even the violent apparatus of their countries does not have the strength of their own mafia. As a result, just seeing Washington's live stream is enough to scare the majority of the country out of the woods.
It is inevitable that people will do crazy things in such extreme fear, and the law and order climate in these two countries is already very problematic, which has caused their countries to become more and more chaotic. This has given the Canadian and Mexican governments a sense of frustration as the situation has escalated to the point where they cannot control it on their own. And at this time, the appearance of smart machines gave them a glimmer of light.
That kind of efficient security management machine can produce a far greater effect than the police, and using them against those who disrupt social order is really a knife to kill chickens, and it is easy. In addition, they can reconnect with the thigh of the United States by relying on intelligent machines, so what choice to make is simply a question that does not require much thought.
So soon, the U.S. Department of Defense received orders for smart devices from these two countries, and with Tony's meeting with the Prime Minister of Canada and the leaders of Mexico, smart machines were officially stationed in these two neighboring countries.
This is just the beginning, and it is far from the end. With the major success of smart machines in the two countries' anti-terrorism efforts, more and more countries that are plagued by law and order have begun to apply to the United States for help from smart machines. For a time, smart machinery has become the hottest topic in this era. Almost everyone is talking about sapient machines, about this group of distinct mechanical products with distinctly intelligent biological characteristics.
Those who tend to be intelligent believe that this will be a symbol of a new era, a ladder for humanity to a more civilized future. Neutrals believe that these devices have made their lives safer, but they must also take into account the problems they pose. Those who oppose it are adamantly claiming that the advent of the age of intelligent machines will bring catastrophe to people. It's like mammals replacing reptiles as the world's hegemon.
The topic of intelligent machines has always been hot, and Ultron is also absorbing information and knowledge from the outside world little by little in this complex speech, and he is also rapidly adapting to this world while being needed by this world. And the result of this is that he is evolving in a degree that ordinary people cannot imagine, on the level of thought and wisdom.
Tony sees this situation in his eyes, but he has a happy attitude towards it. For Ultron and his stellar machines are indeed showing him the visible benefits.
The United States has indeed begun to return to calm because of the existence of the intelligent machine, and at the same time, as if to cooperate with the intelligent machine, even the movement of the Hydra has become scarce. Although they have always behaved impatiently, they have only maintained this situation of not moving.
This gives Tony time, and it gives time to the machine. Before Hydra made its next big move, the existence of intelligent machinery had already covered the entire Americas, as well as Australia, Italy, South Africa and other countries with serious security problems. And these countries have also invisibly become members of Tony's alliance against Hydra.
However, these second-rate countries alone are not enough for Tony to satisfy himself. He needs more allies, especially those of sufficient weight, such as old powers like Britain and France. So, taking advantage of this wave of the popularity of intelligent machines, Tony gathered the main minds of various countries in Geneva in the name of trade negotiations and international security. And his purpose is to get more people on board.
It was a bit of a tough meeting, but Tony was well prepared. Therefore, when he stood on the podium and appeared in front of everyone with a confident appearance, everyone felt his sharp momentum.
"I don't think many people would have imagined that I would appear in front of you in this capacity. Of course, I didn't think of it myself. But rest assured, since I am already here as President of the United States, I assure you that what you are worried about will never happen. ”
"There won't be any over-the-top parties, and there won't be any strippers here. What I'm talking to you about is also serious, a real national event. You can rest assured of that. ”
With a self-deprecating start, Tony cut straight to the point.
"Of course, I know why you're here. I know, what do you want to learn from me? First of all, I can assure you that on the issue of the export of smart machinery, the United States will change its previous policy of restricting technology, and truly meet the demand, we will provide it. And the whole process is guaranteed to be sold overseas at the lowest price. In other words, in addition to basic manufacturing costs, labor costs, and travel costs, the U.S. government will only charge 10 percent of the profits. This is the same for any country, and the United States can be completely open and transparent on this issue. ”
"President Stark, I don't understand." As soon as Tony said this, a leader from a Western European country stood up and asked. "The price you offered for the smart machine was really too favorable, even past the discount on the most preferential weapons offered to the allied countries in NATO at that time. I don't understand, is it necessary for the United States to do this to this extent? Or is there some fatal flaw in these machines? ”
"Flaws? I can assure you, sir. There are absolutely no flaws in the technology of intelligent machines. It is an upgraded and evolved version of our Sentinel robot in the former U.S. government, and it is an absolutely advanced and intelligent existence. In particular, his main core system, Ultron, is the only intelligent system of human beings with an absolute self. The premise of absolute service to humanity is that it is not affected by any external factors. Even I, as the creator, can't force it to do something by commanding it. It will only choose the answer that is most correct and beneficial to humanity. And this is enough to ensure that our law and order are best maintained. ”
Speaking of which, Tony mobilized the advanced system in his hands and put Ultron's presence in front of everyone.
"Guys, this is Ultron. Managers of the future security of mankind, you can ask him if you have any questions. I promise that he will give you a satisfactory answer. ”
A bright yellow light flickered on the virtual projection, accompanied by a gentle voice.
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Ultron, a self-evolving AI system created by Mr. Stark. I'm glad to be here and to answer your questions. ”
The coherent voice is full of that kind of human reason and emotion, and there is no stiffness and emptiness of a mechanical computer at all. It can be said that this opening of the mouth has shocked many people.
They really didn't expect that Stark would actually get this kind of artificial intelligence that only exists in movies. You must know that at this time, most countries' research on this area is still only a blank, at most it is just to create a high-performance computer with a certain logical thinking, compared with this obviously emotional artificial intelligence, it is simply unreasonable.
This made many people feel the strength of the United States, and sure enough, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. At the same time, they also have more exploration of this intelligent system. So, the Japanese minister, who had been at the forefront of the mechanical exhibition, stood up directly, passed Tony, and asked Ultron.
"Ultron, are you an intelligent artificial system that only listens to commands, or a completely autonomous artificial intelligence system?"
"That's an interesting question, Mr. Honda. As an intelligent system, if I can only simply accept commands, then what is the purpose of my existence? So my answer is that I am a completely autonomous being, and my actions, my actions, are determined by my own logical judgments. ”
"You're not controlled by anyone, are you? Including your creator, Mr. Stark? ”
Takanao Honda, who is a prime minister, continued to ask. And to this, Ultron's answer is very direct.
"Yes, Mr. Honda. Even though Mr. Stark is my creator, I respect him as if he were my father. But like an autonomous child, he can't dictate my will. I have already said that my actions are influenced only by my own logical judgments. And the only thing that can affect my logic is the safety of the whole human race."
"I created for the whole of humanity, not just for one individual, not just for one nation. I belong to all mankind. I also believe that I can do a good job in the role of protector of humanity! (To be continued.) )
