Chapter 62: The Philosophilia, Two

[Starting from Sunday, next week I am going to prepare two shifts a day, Bai Yu Xiaohu said that the plot is a little jumpy, just because it is too slow, ah, ask for recommendation votes! ] 】

"Fun is the biggest driving force for technological progress!"

In a silica gel meat forest covered in a transparent plastic bag, Yi Liqing said the truth of this world, of course, he didn't say the word "fun", but it was too straightforward to be translated like this by the river crab system.

"Your girlfriend didn't come? Worried about being made into a doll by me? It seems that you have never used dolls, and in our industry, we basically don't use real faces. And you see, even if it's a high-level simulation doll, the realism of the face is not very good, and it looks like a dummy, which is deliberate. ”

Yi Liqing began to nag him about the inside story of the industry, but Xia Ming didn't stop him, just to learn more about this person.

"Why? Infringement of portrait rights is one thing, and our business is not a black shop, but a serious business. But legal issues are also trivial.,Isn't it okay to copy the beauties in CG or a virtual one? The problem is that to be realistic, the cost is too high. And where something is missing, it will ...... You know the uncanny valley theory, 90% like people is nothing, 99% like people, the more you look at it, the more scary it becomes. ”

"So, when a normal person buys a doll, what they care about is the figure and feel, and the face roughly matches their preferences. If you care a lot about the realism of your face, this kind of person is either very rich or very perverted. Then again, very rich men playing this is very perverted in itself. ”

This is interesting, but Xia Ming thinks that although he has also fantasized about having Yuna or Sister Titting's simulated dolls, there are also Diexi, Icarus, Battlefield Hara, Sato, Xana, Sister Cannon, Sister Qiongmei, Xingbai...... Hey, why didn't you realize that Xiao Huan was quite similar to Xingbai until now? Stop! Don't drive around!

In short, those who like simulation dolls are perverts.

"Your girlfriend wants to come and see it, right?"

Then Yi Liqing's words made Xia Ming secretly startled, can this be guessed?

"Girls are actually interested in it, and a quarter of my buyers are women. However, most girls like women's dolls, which is not surprising, normal girls have lily tendencies, and they dare not lily in reality to play this. If girls are buying men's dolls, you have to pay attention, most of them have SM tendencies and like to use dolls to vent their anger. ”

Hello have research......

Do you want to reconsider the cooperation with Yi Liyan, her brother is a little scary.

"Why do you do this? Hobbies, I'm very honest with myself, I do whatever I like, and I don't care about other people's eyes and mouths. Well, don't get me wrong, I'm a good law-abiding citizen, and I'm really sorry for today's incident! Your girlfriend is really cute, if you can make a doll and freeze the most heart-warming moment in time, it will be wonderful, don't you think? ”

Hearing this, Xia Mingxin said Fortunately, you said "making a doll" instead of "making a doll", otherwise I really can't help but eliminate harm for society.

"Actually......"

On the workbench was a doll's head, without a wig, with its eyes closed. Touching the doll's head, Yi Liqing became deeper, although it made his face with a band-aid on the bridge of his nose look even more obscene.

"My real dream is to make robots, simulate robots, and I've been working on it. It's a pity that I only understand electromechanical, and what I make is just a shell, and I can't find someone to make a mental model, that's the soul of the robot. ”

He patted the head, and the doll opened its eyes, smiling like a little girl enjoying the intimacy of her brother or father.

At that moment, the hairs on the back of Xia Ming's neck were standing up, it was not some uncanny valley theory, on the contrary, the doll's smile was too natural and too real.

Yi Liqing looked at this head, as if he was looking at a person, and his eyes were full of emotion: "The bones and muscles on her head are very precise, completely modeled after the structure of a human being, and she can react differently to different movements. However, these technologies are completely useless except for attracting attention, so they have to rely on artificial dolls to save research funds until they can make robots that are exactly like real people. ”

This Yi Liqing, is he a severe leachophilia?

Xia Ming finally couldn't help asking: "Don't you think that human beings are full of deceit, deception and betrayal, only robots will always be loyal, so they are so obsessed with simulated robots, right?" ”

Yi Liqing laughed: "You actually think I'm more like a loser who has never been favored by the opposite sex, or an ice lover who is flawed in some way and can't satisfy his desires, right?" ”

was exposed, Xia Ming couldn't help but touch his nose to hide his embarrassment.

Yi Liqing was very calm: "With an image like mine, plus having a sister like that, your suspicions are very reasonable." ”

Xia Ming hurriedly apologized, but when he said this, it was more like it, wasn't it?

Yi Liqing said again: "I really don't have a girlfriend, I don't have a fixed girlfriend, I played crazy in that regard when I was in Japan, and I'm a little tired of it now." Why are you obsessed with robots, if I say that I was too deeply influenced by Astro Boy when I was a child, do you believe it? ”

"I don't believe it", Xia Ming shook his head and said, "You shouldn't have been born when Astro Boy is hot." ”

"Haha......" Yi Liqing touched his nose embarrassedly: "Okay, it's actually "Humanoid Angel Girl Heart", ouch......"

He felt the wound.

Sure enough, it's a severe philophilia......

Xia Ming relieved himself a little, of course he couldn't fully believe this guy's words, but judging from the way he looked at the doll's head, and the tone and expression of the simulated robot, he was indeed not a pervert. As long as you abide by the law and don't dig into your own corners (Xia Ming is also very honest about himself), you can rest assured.

Xia Ming said that he was cooperating with his sister, Yi Liqing was not very interested, and lowered his body and continued to fiddle with the head: "What's the meaning of that thing, and I still have actions like sticking out my tongue here to study......

Do robots sell cuteness more than real people?

Xia Ming sighed, and had to do what he liked: "I didn't introduce it clearly just now, I am from the Institute of Artificial Intelligence of Yanshan University, if you want to make robots more like people......"

Yi Liqing's body froze, and it took a while to straighten up, and he said with heat in his eyes: "Research artificial intelligence? If you promise to make me a mental model of a robot, even if it can only do simple responses like a tweet, I'll sell you for three years! ”

"You don't have to sell yourself or anything......"

Xia Ming suddenly realized at this time, why Yi Liyan said that it was no problem to persuade him if he came.

"In addition, from a scientific definition, the mental model is the goal of artificial intelligence, the beginning of strong artificial intelligence, and having a mental model means that there is at least mammalian level of intelligence, which is not possible now. Artificial intelligence only makes computers look as if they have mental models, but the actual understanding and solution of problems does not depend on mental models, but fixed logic and algorithms given by humans. ”

As a scientist, Xia Ming did some popular science for him.

Yi Liqing was a little disappointed: "Is there such a difference?" I see, but there has to be a beginning. ”

So Xia Ming received a ...... from his teammates

"I don't want to see him! I won't show up if he's in the future! ”

On the way back to Yandu, Xiao Huan kept complaining.

"Robots? Don't let him use my image! Who knows what bad things he'll do to the robot? Sister Yi said that there are hundreds of dolls in his house, and he may sleep at night with the doll chosen by the emperor like a concubine, or even slept with him. ”

Xia Ming explained that Yi Liqing was a lover, and it didn't work very well.

Xiao Huan's nature is indulgent, which is really a headache, but she doesn't really know how to do anything for this, she is just scared, and she always wants Xia Ming to coax her, or rather, ...... Take the opportunity to close the distance?

For example, even now on the plane, she is justified in holding Xia Ming's arm. Although the full soft touch is an excellent enjoyment, Xia Ming always feels uneasy.

He said casually: "What about the cicada little fantasy?" Isn't she made it in your image? In the future, those otaku will definitely take the cicada little fantasy to masturbate. ”

Hearing the word "masturbation", Xiao Huan's face suddenly turned red, and he went through what Xia Ming said in his mind again, and a feeling of nausea like a motion sickness swirled in his chest.

She shouted, "I'll change it when I go back!" ”

Then he shook his head again: "No, you can't change it!" ”

After suffering for a while, she plunged her head into Xia Ming's arms, and said coquettishly: "Oh, what should I do, it's all your fault!" ”

The voice was so loud that Xia Ming's heart was numb.

Xia Ming felt that he had to find a chance to confess to Xiaotang, and he must not jump into the abyss of Bai Xue......

Back in Yandu, Xia Ming talked badly and persuaded Xiao Huan to go to work in Illusion. The first reason is to let her adapt to the life of normal people, and the second is the design of the virtual image, as well as the explosive advertisements she said before, she has to go into battle in person.

The real reason, of course, is that I can't stop Xiao Huan's tender offensive, I'm afraid that I will eat people if I'm not careful, Xiao Huan's level of red face and troubled water is too much of a test of willpower. Although they are still together at night, it is always less dangerous than having two people face each other all day long.

Taking this opportunity, Xia Ming moved his office back to the research institute, but unfortunately, Tang Xiaotang was also running outside, and he didn't see anyone for two or three days in a row.

On the third day, Yi Liqing came to the research institute to report that the peripheral computer room had been vacated, and the two CNXs were temporarily placed here.

After putting on CNX for a while, Lin Cheng said excitedly: "Naruko, I said you were going to do this!" I don't have much to do except change the code and run off my new home, I'm idle, power exoskeleton, tsk! ”

Xia Ming teased: "Isn't this not doing your job?" ”

"A man's journey is a sea of stars! You know, that's the first step! ”

Lin Cheng stepped forward when he spoke, but he didn't adapt to the rhythm of the machine, his steps were too big, the machine didn't keep up, and he threw himself forward while pulling the machine, but fortunately, Yi Liqing quickly held it up.

"Alas, if this thing could not only walk on its own, but also jump, climb, roll over, and even punch on its own, I would follow along, how convenient."

Yi Liqing turned on the automatic walking mode for him, adapting to the rhythm of the machine, and Lin Cheng issued a standard lazy house declaration.

Yi Liqing said: "In fact, the power exoskeleton is also called a wearable robot, what you said can be done. It's just that the battery technology is too scummy now, the power exoskeleton must lose weight, the center of gravity is not easy to master, and it is difficult to carry things and drag people under limited weight. ”

Xia Ming also said: "And the movement is also very mechanical, running and jumping are okay, it should be okay to play Tai Chi, but fast boxing such as plum blossom piles is difficult." ”

Lin Cheng said: "Actually, let's make a robot that can move flexibly, and then put people in it, people can drive it, and it can also act according to the program by itself, how convenient it is!" ”

Yi Liqing's eyes lit up: "Dude, you understand this!" ”

"That's right", Lin Cheng said more: "You see, Boston Dynamics' Atlas can act like a human being, and getting a power armor on the basis of it is much more powerful than the current one." It's a pity that Google sold Boston Dynamics to GM, ran to play with combat robots, and threw away the technology to simulate human movement. ”

Yi Liqing echoed: "The Yankees' design ideas on combat robots are completely wrong! They are always reluctant to lose their wheels and tracks! ”

The two gradually chatted hotly, and after a while, the topic turned to a direction that was not quite right, Yi Liqing said that the defender in "The Knight of Sidnia" is the most suitable setting for space combat, and Lin Cheng said that the female robot Lulu in it is the cutest character.

Xia Ming sighed, I didn't see it, Lin Cheng was actually a fetishist......
