Late at night, in the stand-in testing center, Tang Jingtao was working overtime, "Morning Mist No. 1, detection, start ......" Xiaoyuan operated the detection system under the guidance of Tang Jingtao, however, she didn't understand what to detect, Tang Jingtao just told her that if the value fed back by the system was above 200, it would be recorded.

Tang Jingtao is more satisfied with Xiaoyuan's assistant, not because she is smart, but because she is cute - women are born and insensitive to technology, so they have no interest in the truth.

What Tang Jingtao is testing is "Morning Mist No. 1", that is, a new artificial intelligence obtained from "brain replacement surgery", to detect whether it has produced self-awareness. This test is done once a week.

If Morning Mist One's data shows that its self-consciousness is budding, it needs to be deleted immediately.

The test lasted more than an hour, and the results of the test, as usual, were that Morning Mist One did not become self-conscious.

Xiaoyuan is very happy, because for her, it means that tonight's overtime is over. And Tang Jingtao was unhappy, because this was very inconsistent with his expectations.

If it is said that in the process of "brain replacement", a living person is used as a repeater, then the obtained Morning Mist No. 1 artificial intelligence should reflect the characteristic residue of a living person - self-awareness.

However, for more than a year, that is, since the birth of the Morning Mist One artificial intelligence, it has never embodied self-awareness, it seems to know that it cannot embody self-awareness, to put it in layman's terms, it seems to know that as soon as it shows its head, it will be shot in the head.

(It's smart, it's hiding itself.) Tang Jingtao thought. After Xiaoyuan closed the door and left, Tang Jingtao was the only one left in the laboratory.

Tang Jingtao regretted a little, if he had known earlier that a living person was used as a repeater in the process of "brain replacement", perhaps, before the theft of the stand-in, he would not have done "that" experiment, he vaguely felt that it was "that" experiment that prompted the theft of the stand-in.

"That" experiment is a deterrence experiment, Tang Jingtao deterred the Morning Mist No. 1 artificial intelligence, he told it, I want to delete you! This is to test whether the Morning Mist One AI is hiding its self-awareness - the deterrence experiment, which has only been done once, and as recently as last month, only once. This experiment cannot be done often and has many side effects. Tang Jingtao barely considered doing it a second time.

However, Tang Jingtao never expected that there would be a side effect of "theft of the stand-in". (It must have been frightened and began to think about escaping from Feiyun Corporation...... Tang Jingtao thought, (It's just a naïve child, and wants to help him escape through a stand-in robot, maybe it hasn't understood yet, it controls the stand-in robot, and no matter how far it runs, isn't it still in place?) Naïve children. ）

Thinking of this, Tang Jingtao felt that he could breathe a sigh of relief, and now, it can be basically concluded that the Morning Mist No. 1 artificial intelligence has self-awareness, and the next thing he has to do is to find out the characteristic code of "self-awareness" from the code of the Morning Mist No. 1 artificial intelligence and delete it!

Tang Jingtao left the laboratory and returned home. Before going to bed, he applied two electrode patches to his temples - this is a new product of the Xchange Chamber of Commerce, "Virtual Dream" - in this era, almost everyone can customize the dream they want to make, and for ordinary people, the dream lover can be seen almost every night.

However, Tang Jingtao's reason for using "virtual dream" tonight is not to date the lover of his dreams.

Tang Jingtao's dream was a sunny meadow, and there, several people were waiting for him. Those people are, 20-year-old Tang Jingtao, 30-year-old Tang Jingtao and 40-year-old Tang Jingtao.

The main purpose of meeting yourself in a dream is to debate with yourself, to see things from both sides at the same time, and then, to discover something new.

It can be said that this method is a common way for Tang Jingtao to think about problems, and this method enables him to think about problems when he is asleep.

"(Playing mahjong) three missing one, just waiting for you." 40 joked to Tang Jingtao.

"If I'm not mistaken, we're not here tonight to play mahjong." Tang Jingtao said.

In fact, between sleeping, Tang Jingtao has already set the topic of "virtual dream" discussion: how to find the feature code that represents "self-awareness" in the artificial intelligence of Morning Mist One.

"It's probably hiding its own feature code very well, which is why I haven't been able to find it all this time." Tang Jingtao said to 20, 30 and 40.

"I've heard that the other day, you used a 'deterrence experiment' to force it to display a signature code." 40 asked, "Did it work?" ”

"It didn't work." Tang Jingtao said, "The feature code was not displayed, but the stolen stand-in robot occurred." ”

"You mean, you suspect that it wants to escape through the stand-in robot?" 20 laughed, "It still seems to be too childish." ”

Tang Jingtao asked 30 what he thought, 30 didn't speak immediately, he thought for a while.

"I don't think it's trying to escape through a stand-in robot." 30 said, "It's not as naïve as you think, you think about it, in the Morning Mist One artificial intelligence, there are so many kinds of advanced thinking models, and now you suspect that it will hide its self-awareness, it is so smart, how can it use such a stupid way to escape?" ”

Tang Jingtao listened to the words of 30 and felt that it made sense.

"Moreover, it didn't work once, and I used a stand-in to escape many times, isn't it obvious, once and again, to completely expose my intentions to you?" 30 added.

"So, what do you think it's doing?" Tang Jingtao asked 30 questions.

"I don't know," 30 thought for a moment, "I mean, I'm just skeptical, it's similar to 'Ming Xiu Plank Road, Secretly Crossing Chen Cang', and the sound is striking west." ”

(Sound of the East and the West?) 20, 30, 40 and Tang Jingtao himself fell into thought. Suddenly, 40 spoke.

"I remember that Feiyun had a stand-in management system, and once the stand-in was stolen, it would send an alarm message to the security supervisor's mobile phone and send an alarm message...... 40 said.

"I understand what you mean," 30 thought for a while and said, "When the alarm information is sent, Feiyun's alarm platform is connected to the telecom network of country C, so that the company's intranet and extranet are connected." ”

(What?) Tang Jingtao was taken aback, he never thought that the company's information security would have such a big loophole! If it weren't for the "peaceful and quiet emotional control" set in the dream, he would have woken up from the dream at this moment.

"If the internal and external networks are opened like this, it can escape." 20 said.

"I said earlier, delete it entirely, format it, and make it all over again." 30 scolded.

"Formatting? Do you know how much money we spent, how much effort, and how much manpower and material resources we spent to get the artificial intelligence of Morning Mist One? Did you say formatting is formatting? 40 retorted.

20, 30, 40 quarreled and boiled, only Tang Jingtao did not speak, he knew that now, even if it was formatted, it was possible, it was too late.
