But after saying that, she realized that she seemed to have said something wrong, and she hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that, I didn't laugh at you for the short life. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I was just surprised, you know, two hundred years old in our place is just an adult, ah, no, I don't mean that you are not an adult, I am just in my early 100s. The more she talked, the more confused she became, and finally she found that she couldn't explain it anymore, so she had to say, "Anyway, you just need to know that I don't mean that." ”

"I didn't mean to blame you." Zhou Xin shook his head at her, "I am not dissatisfied with the current lifespan, of course, I will still be very happy if I can get a longer lifespan, so that I can explore more planets, I chose to work on the Voyager in order to explore more unknown planets." ”

"There's no problem with that." As if to make up for the gaffe just now, Christy hurriedly replied, "Genetic modification technology is not a sophisticated technology for us, and when the time comes, I will ask the dean's grandfather to help you do genetic modification." ”

"We'll talk about it then." Zhou Xin was noncommittal, "Let's not discuss the issue of longevity." He didn't believe in his heart that the Atlanteans would use their technology on a stranger, so he decisively changed the subject, "Although I have seen your experience in the video before, the video does not explain in detail, and I am still curious about some details. Now I just have time, why don't you explain it to me in detail? ”

"Okay." Christy nodded.

Zhou Xin took Christy and Ralph back to the command module, and when she heard that Christy was going to tell Zhou Xin about the experience of the Atlanteans, all the idle people in the command module gathered around. And so the rest of the story began in such an atmosphere.

"You've all seen that video." For the first time, Christy was surrounded by so many strangers, she began to ask questions with a hint of nervousness, and seeing that everyone around her nodded, she continued, "Let's start with that paragraph, in fact, before the invasion, we lived a very comfortable life, and that period of time coincided with the rapid development of our technology, and all kinds of unexpected pioneering achievements were constantly invented, the most surprising of which was that we invented artificial intelligence. ”

"Artificial intelligence?" Zhou Xin asked curiously, "Is it the intelligent system installed on those weapon platforms?" ”

"It's not." Christy shook her head, "Combat machines are only incomplete intelligent systems, they only have advantages in combat, and real artificial intelligence is much more advanced than this. According to historical records, artificial intelligence invented by our ancestors has the ability to think independently. They can solve problems encountered in reality independently, and even they know how to invent and create, and have emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and so on. If you don't tell you that it's an intelligent robot, you won't be able to tell the difference between it and the Atlanteans in communication. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xin and the others were very surprised, and Spred asked curiously, "Isn't an intelligent robot comparable to an Atlantean?" “

"Even better than the Atlanteans." "We still feel tired when we work, but intelligent robots are different, they just need to have energy, they can work 24 hours a day, and their computing power is not comparable to us Atlanteans." ”

"That's great, we also want to build such robots, so that the development of technology will be even faster?" Zhou Xin's words revealed his interest in intelligent robots.

"Don't!" Christy exclaimed excitedly, and after a while, she calmed down and continued, "At the beginning, our ancestors also thought so, and the intelligent robots we created did help us solve a lot of problems, and in just a few months, our technology has completed a leap of more than ten years. The ancestors tasted the sweetness and were about to mass-produce this type of intelligent robot when an accident happened. ”

"Accident?" Zhou Xin asked, "Could it be an intelligent robot riot?" Want to overthrow the rule of the Atlanteans? He remembered the plot of a science fiction movie he had seen before.

"How could you think that?" Christy was surprised, "At that time, the intelligent robots were only experimental, and there were no more than ten in total, so how could this number riot." And when the ancestors learned that those robots had real intelligence, they treated the intelligent robots as real life, and never thought of being superior to them. And intelligent robots treat us in the same way, and at the same time, the difference in life forms leads to no contradiction between the two, and our ancestors live in peace with intelligent robots, conducting research together every day. ”

"So what happened?" Ralph interjected.

"Have you seen the spaceship in the video?" Christy said, "The ship was built with the wisdom of more than a dozen generations of Atlanteans, and she was built for the same purpose as your Voyager, to explore the universe, and her name is the Great Western Continent." However, although the Great West Continent was built, it lacked one of the most important things - an engine that could cross long distances in the universe, and it took us several generations to build such an engine, but we have not been able to develop the last technical barrier - the hyperspace gate stabilization technology. ”

"And then, with the help of artificial intelligence, you did your research?" Zhou Xin asked.

"Yes." Christy nodded, "With the help of artificial intelligence, the ancestors successfully developed the hyperspace gate stabilization technology, and they successfully created the first stable hyperspace gate. ”

"What does this have to do with accidents?"

"Then it's related." "After this technology was developed, our ancestors applied it to the Great Western Continent and conducted in-depth research into stable hyperspace. At this time, artificial intelligence came up with a concept - hyperspace communication. ”

"At first, the ancestors were still interested in this technology, so then they started to study hyperspace communication, and with the help of artificial intelligence, this research progressed very quickly, and in just a few months, they successfully developed the first prototype. After the prototype was developed, they were ready to conduct the first hyperspace communication experiment, but at this time some people raised objections. Christy said slowly, "These people think that if we rush into the first experiment, if the communication we send is received by aliens, it may have unintended consequences. ”

"They're right." Zhou Xin nodded, "It's fine if the message sent is received by a friendly civilization, but if it is received by an evil civilization, the consequences will be serious." ”

"The ancestors thought the same way as you." Christy agreed, "It's very unlikely that this will happen, but it's not impossible. So just in case, the ancestors stopped the first experiment just as it was about to begin. ”

"It's the right choice, if it were me, I would have decided to pause the experiment and wait until the technology is more mature in the future." Zhou Xin said.

"Did something happen while stopping the experiment?" Spreed, for his part, asked the question that was most of his concern.

"Not really." Christy gave a surprising answer, "The experiment was stopped without incident, and the ancestors began to study the technology more deeply to find a better way." Then, her voice lowered, "Although the ancestors stopped this experiment, the artificial intelligence did not think so. They objected when their ancestors proposed to stop the experiment, but their opposition was ineffective due to the lack of superiority in numbers. So although experiments are openly forbidden, artificial intelligence is secretly preparing for experiments. ”

At this time, Zhou Xin had a question, "Didn't you just say that your ancestors got along well with artificial intelligence?" How could such a thing happen. ”

"Although we get along, artificial intelligence is not Atlantean after all, and there are differences in our ideas." "And they have the same privileges as the Atlanteans, so if they do anything else in private, the ancestors won't find out." ”

Zhou Xin nodded and motioned for Christy to continue.

It didn't take long for the AI to prepare for the experiment, and they conducted their first hyperspace communication experiment as planned. At this time, the ancestors discovered the actions of the artificial intelligence, so they urgently closed the hyperspace opening for research, but it was too late, and the artificial intelligence had successfully sent the first communication message. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xin had already guessed what was going to happen next, and he frowned and asked, "So the spherical battleship appeared next?" ”

Christy nodded, "Shortly after the message was sent, the spherical battleship appeared. After they appeared, the ancestors tried to contact each other, but they did not respond and launched a direct attack on our planet. Christie's tone was filled with grief and indignation, "You've all seen what happened next in the video. ”

At this point, Christy finished explaining the reason for the appearance of the spherical battleship, and after listening to Christie's words, Zhou Xin thought for a long time, and then asked: "What is the identity of that spherical battleship, have you figured it out." ”

Christy shook her head and said hesitantly, "Sort of—I don't know." ”

"I don't know?" Zhou Xin asked suspiciously, "You have been fighting with them for so long and you still don't know the identity of the other party?" ”

"I only know that there are a lot of robots, and Grandpa Dean also told us what each robot looks like, so that we can remember what these robots look like, so that we don't know the danger when we encounter them in the future. As for the rest, Grandpa Dean didn't say it. Christy was a little embarrassed.

"Grandpa Dean?"

"It's the fifteen-hundred-year-old man I told you before, he is the leader of our entire base, and the director of the research institute, and every one of us Atlanteans will receive his enlightenment at the age of fifty. He will tell us a lot of things, and he will tell us about this period of history so that we can remember it and pass it on. I heard from the dean's grandfather that he also received such enlightenment when he was a child, in order to let the younger generations not repeat the mistakes of the past. ”

"Yes, it really should be." Zhou Xin nodded.

"What about the artificial intelligence?" Spred was concerned about another question, "What happened to the artificial intelligence after the hyperspace information was sent?" ”

"I guess it's not that good." Christy said uncertainly, "Because our base also has an artificial intelligence as a host now, but it doesn't involve any specific work now." It is only when it comes to making decisions that it makes some specific recommendations, and the rest of the work is to maintain the day-to-day operation of the base. ”

"Are you restricted?" Zhou Xin said to himself, "After all, it's artificial intelligence, it's a pity if it is destroyed directly, and it is a good way to restrict permissions." But how did your ancestors do it? In the past, you and artificial intelligence were originally on an equal footing, how could those artificial intelligence be willing to lower their own permissions and become auxiliary hosts? With their ability to think, would they make such a choice? ”

"I don't know." Christy replied, "I just know that Grandpa Dean's attitude towards that console is still very peaceful, at least in the daily communication, there is nothing unusual to see, and the artificial intelligence has never done anything beyond its authority." ”

"That's weird." Zhou Xin was puzzled, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't think of a reason, so he had to put this question aside. Just when Zhou Xin and the others wanted to continue to ask for more details, a report from the engineering robot came from the communicator.

"The dismantling of the wreckage of the planetary rover has been completed, and after preliminary inspection, although the entire planetary rover is seriously damaged, its core is still relatively intact. The shell of the core is not broken, only slightly deformed in some places, and we are currently inspecting the core, although the next step in dismantling may require the help of the Atlantean. ”

Hearing this news, Zhou Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and he said, "Then let's talk about it here today, and I'll go over with Christy to have a look." Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, he left the command cabin with Christy......
