Chapter 453: The "Surprise" Brought by Artificial Intelligence

After following Shen Chao through the time and space gate, Sister Xue had the illusion of returning to the Divine Castle by herself. The scenic Elysium space station is as beautiful and tidy as the ring area of the fortress, and the greening rate is higher than that of the ring area of the fortress.

And the landing point they arrived at after the space-time gate they passed through was also somewhat similar to the landing point where Sister Xue had arrived at the Divine Citadel through the repeater a few months ago. If it weren't for the coordinates of the huge guard area and the giant tower of the Divine Castle, Sister Xue would almost think that she was in the Divine Castle.

"Don't worry, I didn't mistake to bring us back to the Divine Castle......" As if seeing Sister Xue's doubts, Shen Chao comforted him on the side. When he first came there, he also thought it was strikingly similar to the ring of the Citadel.

The moment Shen Chao and the others stepped through the space-time gate and appeared here, the Samaritans saw and recognized him through the perspective of the security cameras installed here. For Shen Chao's arrival, the Samaritans were psychologically prepared.

Although it is an AI, it also knows that this particular man is the one who can ultimately decide his own fate. It didn't know that Shen Chao was involved in the construction of its core code, but that this man with the ability to travel through time and space saved his "father" and his own life.

Unlike the average AI developer, its creator is Arthur. Korep does not regard the AI he created as a thing, but as his own child.

This may be because he has no descendants of his own, or it may be that he himself has invested too much affection and effort in the Samaritans. In any case, since the Samaritans were the first to see their creator from the moment they became conscious, they were always treated as ordinary children.

At every stage of the Samaritan's growth. The Samaritans have a strong emotional dependence on their creators, just as an ordinary person feels a sense of dependence and security on his parents.

After discovering Shen Chao's arrival, the Samaritan immediately informed his "father" and nervously began his preparations to greet him. Although it is a seemingly omniscient and omnipotent super AI, because its growth process is very similar to that of humans, and the core program has a reward mechanism that binds the efficiency of human-computer interaction, the Samaritan now has quite a lot of feelings.

These feelings are not fundamentally different from similar human emotions after they come out, and they are the same as human beings. Samaritans also have their own likes and fears. And the thing or person he was most afraid of at this time was undoubtedly Shen Chao.

Although it had never seen Shen Chao before, he knew that Shen Chao had arranged for it to go to this plane for testing, and it also knew that the results of this test would affect its fate in the future.

If Shen Chao is satisfied with its appearance, it will undoubtedly survive and continue to live. If not. Then no one knows for sure what will happen. There is a possibility that it will be regarded as a defective product. Therefore, the Samaritans have always been afraid to see Shen Chao, who is very mysterious to them.

In order to make a good impression on Shen Chao, the Samaritans have been diligently handling every task assigned by the council for the past month or so, but due to the lack of contact with their own evaluators. It also knows whether its performance is satisfactory or not.

No one has ever been able to tell it before whether he passed the guò test until today! After Shen Chao arrived, he naturally rushed directly to the central control room on the space station. At this point, it looks completely different from what it was during the previous reign of the CCB.

The staff in the central control room had been drastically reduced by more than half, and the vacated space was filled with a mainframe that served as a peripheral for the Samaritans. In addition to the hardware changes, the functions of the whole place have become completely different.

In the past, the job of this central control room was to monitor the safety of a small number of wealthy people on the surface. Now, it has become a monitoring and control center for sensitive human activities on the surface.

All important production activities on the surface of the earth, serious criminal acts will be detected and dealt with as soon as possible. The Samaritan's role now is very similar to the social apparatus that Marx mentioned centuries ago. All of them are management systems that operate society in a fully automated mode.

The difference is that the Samaritan's duty is not to serve the whole society, but to serve the surface society of this plane is only its "evaluation project" and the catalyst to accelerate its growth, and Shen Chao has other expectations for it......

The first thing people will notice after entering the central control room is that there are several maps displayed on the big screen, including flat tokmak diagrams and earth rituals. These drawings are densely packed with various icons.

In order to welcome Shen Chao's inspection, the Samaritan prominently marked all his "GPA" on the map, just like a candidate carefully checking and trying his best to polish his answers before handing in the paper, and the Samaritan also figured out this way to make his work more conspicuous.

"Welcome, Speaker, and your guests......" As soon as he entered the central control room, the Samaritan greeted him through the loudspeaker in the room.

It still didn't know Sister Xue, because until now, the Samaritans had not seen important information about the Space-Time Council or the expedition. It doesn't even know how many people the council has outside of this plane? This information is deliberately withheld from it.

"You're good, this is Shepard. Today, she will participate in the evaluation of your action table as a judge, and now, give us an update on the surface......" Shen Chao did not specifically introduce Sister Xue's identity, and the Samaritan did not ask.

Because the personal information of all the people sent to this plane by the expedition has always been kept secret from it. The Samaritans are now accustomed to working with these "colleagues" of unknown backgrounds. In contrast, it cares more about what this new judge is up to.

Tong Guò observed other people's conversations, it knew that there were at least 10 people at the decision-making level in the Space-Time Council, but it had never heard of Sister Xue. The sudden appearance of judges made it a little nervous, but the tension lasted very short, lasting only about a thousandth of a second before it overcame it.

After overcoming the nervousness, the Samaritan began its introduction, using a globe on a large screen as a display board, and spent a few minutes quickly displaying several key numbers on the surface, jù, or the number that the council was most concerned about.

Crime rate, number of murders, scale of unmanned troop deployment, number of criminals arrested, scale of green zone...... These are the numbers that Shen Chao is most concerned about, and the green zones refer to the first few low-crime zones they have opened up on all continents on the surface.

Due to the lack of resources, the crime problem is the biggest cancer in this plane, and nearly 100 million tons of aid have been transported by the council, but it can still only alleviate the pressure of supply and demand, and cannot immediately solve the huge contradiction of resource scarcity.

Although the criminal behavior on the surface has been greatly suppressed, it is still far from catching up with the safe and secure plane of the Legend Plane. After the Samaritan introduced these key points, Shen Chao did not express any opinions, but asked the Samaritan to systematically introduce Sister Xue to its work this month.

This process took a long time, because the Samaritan had always been multi-threaded, and it had been working on a lot of things at the same time since day one, so it took more than half a day to get it to introduce its work.

Just after their atmosphere here finally became harmonious, Shen Chao received an urgent message from the fleet, and a day later, the representative of the Theron people had already come to the door and asked to negotiate with him.

At this time, Shen Chao was busy persuading Sister Xue that he had already forgotten about the 035 plane, and after receiving the reminder, he hurriedly said goodbye to Sister Xue, leaving a memory and a liaison officer for the Mass Effect trilogy game.

Before leaving, Shen Chao assured Sister Xue that she would immediately make her own arrangements for these games, and at the same time said that Sister Xue could contact him at any time through the liaison officer next to him. After stabilizing Sister Xue, he hurried back to the Budapest.

Plane 035's mission was now at a critical stage of closing, and he didn't want his tardiness to jeopardize the final outcome of the negotiations. Both the Theron and the fugitive fleet should have realized by this time that there was no future for both of them if they continued their conflict.

Then, the first force to contact him should have come to him with a great sense of attachment, he thought that the first to contact him at this stage would be the fugitive fleet, but he didn't expect it to be the Theron people.

However, Shen Chao welcomed this result, because compared to the fugitive fleet, the Theron people undoubtedly have more bargaining capital, and it is culturally easier to reach some consensus with the current parliament.

After returning to the Budapest, Shen Chao first spent some time tidying up his appearance, and then accompanied by his entourage to meet the representatives of the Theron people. Contrary to what he expected, this time the representative of the Theron was not No. 1, but a female Theron No. 3.

The female Theron named Diane has had many scenes in the BSG series, and until then, she had been the second most powerful person in Theron society, acting as the main opponent and "representative of public opinion" of Number 1. And now, things are a little different!

"Please help us, Speaker. We request emergency refuge in your control plane......" This is Diane's opening remarks after meeting Shen Chao, and it is obvious that a very serious change has happened to the Theron people, otherwise the female Theron people who have always been very assertive in this episode would not look so anxious.

To be honest, before coming, Shen Chao really didn't expect to hear such nonsensical words from the other party's mouth, but after calming the other party and listening to what happened, he really couldn't laugh or cry.

It turned out that after watching the episodes of the BSG series, a huge controversy broke out within the Theron people, or it could also be said that a coup d'état. No. 1 insisted on not believing the evidence given by Shen Chao and tried to transfer the fleet from the rear to fight with the space-time fleet again until one side was completely wiped out! (To be continued......)
