Artificial intelligence may be us

I hope that this skill can be maintained, and it would be great if it would be easier to get more than 8,000 a day.

The scrapwood NPC is going to take over the world, as mentioned earlier in this story, inspired by the old story "Vertical and Horizontal". At first, I thought about setting the name as "A Dream for a Thousand Years", but then I thought that the online article should look like an online article, so I changed it to the current name. In fact, it turned out later that it was not necessarily.

The first part of the story takes place in the online game "A Dream of a Millennium", and the second part takes place in the world of "Game Manager 2049" outside of "A Dream of a Thousand Years".

The inspiration here came from reading the forum on the Internet that day, and seeing the game of Football Manager, so I thought, if the outside of the online game is a single-player game, will there be a contrasting setting?

I was going to set this up as a matryoshka situation. At that time, I had a headache, what should the second world be if it wasn't an online game world? Straight into the real world? That seems a bit too straightforward.

So outside of "A Dream Millennium" is "Game Manager 2049", and outside 2049 is a real world, but the link between the real world and the virtual world is a portable hard drive.

That's how we live at the moment. The virtual world and the real world are separated by various network cables and hardware, which may be computers, mobile phones, USB flash drives, mobile hard disks, etc.

So what is the third world? I was going to let Li Wu live in the real world, but I felt that there were too many books written like this. And what exactly is reality? That's hard to say. So with a twist of the pen, let him go to the world of "Shattered Sky". In the world of "Shattered Heaven", I chose a suspense line to cut into the story. In a sense, it may be the rhythm that I am familiar with, so the creation at that time seemed to be relatively smooth.

But stories, like life, must have an ending. Today's online literature is different from what it used to be. In the past, it was often necessary to choose a story to depict in detail, and to choose a certain period of a character's life to create. Online articles are often written about a character's life, or even several lifetimes.

The same is true of "Li Wu" in our story, from the NPC in the original game, to the discovery that he was once a famous general, to his departure from his past and his attempt to make new life choices. From the time he realized that the "system" had arranged his whole life, to the time he broke away from the system and began to use the system to take control of his own life in turn. Li Wu, who has "self-awareness", has been very wonderful in these lives.

There may also be readers who feel that his story is a little too smooth, and his future is still not tortuous enough. Then I respect your point of view, but after all, the Internet still doesn't write more sad content.

I've found that when we focus on one type, we move closer to that type of thinking. If you are used to writing about games and artificial intelligence, you will see the real world as a virtual world. Think of everything as a task.

The family will carefully observe the world and try to find the truth of the world, just like Li Wu uses the "Ten Thousand Souls" to explore the virtual world.

Then there is another question here, that is, who is the supporting character who can grow together with the protagonist. Bai Bu, Guan Changsheng, a sword to seal the gods, or Li Yue'er, Huang Da Hammer, Lu Xiaoyu, Yan Bing?

We often say that the problem of the length of online articles is solved by converting the map, but even if the map is converted, it is difficult to solve the problem of the growth of supporting characters. Because there are very few supporting characters who can keep up with the growth rate of the main character. Because if the protagonist becomes stronger at the same speed as the supporting characters, then the story may not be cool enough.

After struggling with this for a while, I decided to focus on the story's attempts at AI life.

Our book covers almost all the confusion and cool points of AI life.

For example, their attitude towards the virtual world and the real world, for example, since they are the beings of the data world, they should have no entities in the real world, and to solve physical problems, they are robots, or humans.

Therefore, robots, humans, and digital lives are not actually the same kind of life, but they can all be counted as AI.

Another example is the attitude of AI towards their creator, humans, whether AI can coexist with humans, and whether AI is willing to exist only as a tool

At? The answer here is obvious.

And when we think about it, AI is basically omnipotent in the virtual world. He can do all his things by changing the data. That's why there is the setting of the "panacea" and "I am for all" system. But the virtual world is omnipotent and cannot advance to the "real world", so there is a problem of story extensibility here.

Overall, in "Waste Wood NPCs Want to Take Over the World", Li Wu finally finds that the virtual world he explores is infinitely close to the human world. The virtual world also has a mechanical paradise, and there is also a "virtual world" in the middle.

Is it simply because AI was created by humans? In this book, I don't seriously discuss what the "human world" looks like at this moment. Because the wasteland-like human world is present in many works.

Personally, I'm interested in how AI reacts when he suddenly knows that he's not human. And artificial intelligence, because the creator created them according to their own image, so how similar are they to humans?

This is a topic that was brought up in Frankenstein, and we are still discussing it more than 100 years later. It's just that artificial intelligence is getting closer and closer. The topic will also become more and more hot.

Li Wu's process of awakening step by step, until he began to take charge of a world. Sometimes I think maybe it's better to write too fast, or a lot of half a million words. But this kind of creation seems to be not suitable for the rhythm of online articles.

Online articles require both fast-paced stories and writing speeds. But it also requires the author to have deep accumulation and tenacious endurance.

I think that in the first 500,000 words, I showed the process of Li Wu's awakening, and then the long process of accumulation, because of the changes in the companions around him, still encountered certain problems.

Fortunately, in the end, I gritted my teeth and persevered. This creation was also a difficult and rewarding experience for me. Unlike the previous "Shattered Three Kingdoms", the Shattered Three Kingdoms wrote all kinds of complex fighting rings at that time. "Waste Firewood" is a game through different game environments, such as online games, stand-alone games, puzzle games, and management games. Record all the process of an AI's adaptation to the environment. The old and the new, the friendship for a friend, the affection for a lover. Hatred of the enemy.

All AIs want to be free beings, and we humans are not the same.

I can't help but wonder if AI is the mirror of humanity, then whose mirror are we?

Perhaps for some of the "gods", we are also their "artificial intelligence". But even so, we are free beings after all.

Creation is a never-ending journey, and I would like to thank the readers and friends who have persevered with me along the way, without you there would be no book.
