If there is a phenomenon that is an unsolved mystery to man, then someone must study it.

If there's a technique that's extremely effective, but people don't understand how it works, then there are also people who are going to continue to work on it, for all sorts of reasons and reasons.

In the age of the Internet, people use AI to assist in many tasks, and this thing has proved to be quite useful for production research and even combat, and is the first choice for reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

Unfortunately, the virus released by the hacker god Bartmoss has crossed the line of becoming dangerous critical bodies, and most of the AIs have become extremely aggressive.

Single-handedly almost crippled the entire human society, and in desperation, people will also think:

Can such power be used for oneself?

Is it still possible for humans to re-use highly intelligent AI in the new net?

Bryce's answer was simple and brutal, revealing no specific reasons why cyber surveillance was studying these things, but it also explained Lille's doubts.

"There are many reasons to study this, but you just need to study a process that is valuable."

Bryce ended the topic of Dramain with such a sentence, but Lille was silently thinking.

This answer is very informative for the average person: after the collapse of the old network, almost all large companies showed a respectful attitude towards high-performance AI on the surface, and defaulted to network monitoring to manage it.

But secretly, I can think of it on my toes: since this is a valuable project, companies with a little capital must be researching it.

For Lille, he could think of more than that.

But he could only ask something less sensitive.

"So what does this have to do with Muramasa's AI?"

"First of all, cyber surveillance has somewhat recognized your identity as a supernumerary AI hunter – albeit only as an assistant.

Now that you have this identity, you need to have a basic understanding of our attitude towards AI, as well as the basic classification and details of AI.

Secondly, there is a high probability that Muramasa is a dangerous critical body, because the technical level of the digital soul is linked to the deceased.

If a person is not the type who is willing to learn and understand technology before he is born, then his intelligence will not change much after he goes digital. ”

After assisting in cyber monitoring to improve the progress of the task of AI such as digital souls, Lille's new task is to deal with this dangerous critical body.

Knowledge is still quite valuable, and Lille silently keeps it to heart.

It seemed that Lille's reaction was relatively flat, and Bryce added more solemnly: "But don't study this kind of AI privately, you are not network surveillance, and the slightest mistake will lead to violent death, inducing serious consequences."

Cyber technology is often just a skill that accompanies them, and they have unparalleled power in their respective areas of expertise. ”

The little octopus popped out of Lille's prosthetic eyes, two tentacles hugged in front of him, and the other reached out to touch Bryce's head condescendingly.

With this expression: ψ(')ψ.

[Little Octopus: Yes, big brother, this is me. 】

The activity was only done in Lille's own head, so it didn't give Bryce any reaction.

The corners of Lille's mouth twitched, and he turned off the memory unit that the little octopus used to display.

Bryce didn't notice Lille's wandering mind and continued:

"The Black Wall is also the strictest monitoring of dangerous critical bodies, and the appearance of Muramasa is somewhat unusual, this mission is not only to catch it, but also to find out how it broke through the Black Wall and operated on the Internet."

The black wall in cyberspace is an infinite wall that is sealed from top to bottom, left and right, and is essentially software, or AI.

Bryce's daily task is to patch up the cracks in the black wall and investigate anomalies.

This is also one of the anomalies, and he needs to figure out the situation.

"And then. Why we have a clue, the only AI that is known not to cause a black wall to react is digital souls and low-intelligence AI.

Thanks to your help, we've compared some of the Soul Slayer's data blocks and tracked down some things that we didn't find before.

If you follow this clue, you may be able to find out how these AIs got in. ”

After a long conversation, the car slowly passed a building in Heywood.

Lille saw from afar that there appeared to be NCPD police outside the building cordoning off the scene, with a holographic cordon and drones hovering around.

As the car pulled into the street, Lille realized what was going on.

It was as if it had been bombarded with shells, and the ground was full of potholes that could knock a car into the ground.

The original building was a small high-rise building integrating commercial and residential, counting the bottom three floors of shops, a total of 14 floors.

The glass on the surface of the building has been shattered, and the walls are covered with all kinds of holes that have been blown open by the explosion, and the twisted steel bars and broken furniture and steel plates are clearly visible.

There's even a trauma team's floating car stuck in the wall on the top floor.

The trajectory of the hole exploding is quite clear, and it can be seen that the person who made these marks hit the downstairs from upstairs, which is very exaggerated.

Black smoke was still emitting from some floors, and the smell of gunsmoke and dust still hadn't dissipated.

A few civilians walked downstairs and silently glanced up, it was hard to tell what emotions were on their faces, but they quickly walked into this dangerous building-

It looks like this is their home, the rent has already been paid, and there is nowhere to go if they don't stay.

But there are still some people, their homes have been destroyed, and they can only shout at the NCPD from the sidelines-

Very measured roar, with no intention of crossing the holographic cordon at all.

"Fuck you NCPD! I just rented the house!! Money!! ”

Tiaozi didn't even look up at him, just silently collected data.

Bryce explained: "There was a fight here a few days ago, and it was very fierce, and we only know that one of the groups has suspicious characteristics in the data flow, but we don't know exactly what it is.

Leaving aside the civilians, 13 people died, 10 Valentino and 3 afterlife, all locals.

The on-site investigation team believes that these sabotages should have been made by automatic grenade launchers, and the source is unknown. ”

"Didn't live out? All killed? ”

"Mercenaries, no one survived - people were taken away by the trauma team, and some of the trauma team survived.

The trauma team rejected the NCPD's investigation order on the grounds of the employer's privacy, but I can get you information about the man at the scene.

Also, you can use your connections to ask Valentino's people, who have more connections than I do. ”

"Okay." Lille looked out the window and exclaimed, "These Europeans have really made a lot of good things." ”

"Good stuff?" Bryce asked rhetorically exaggeratedly, then shook his head in pain, "Do you know that it took a lot of effort just to control Night City to the crime rate and combat intensity it is today?"

If the Europeans are allowed to do this, maybe next year we will see someone on the street with power armor on it!

If the Voodoo Gang gets those things."

Bryce shuddered a little at the thought of this.

The Voodoo Gang usually does things that show their heads, but the high-tech and high-intensity equipment doesn't know that these big guys smell of gunpowder.

Lille only thought it was funny: Bryce really thought of himself as a cyber cop.

So he patted Bryce on the shoulder: "Little brother, if you don't come and mess with me, there is no future for me." ”

"Huh." Bryce put away his painful expression and looked over expressionlessly, "Street gangsters digging into the corner of the network surveillance wall? You can get the outlet. ”

"Pay attention to your words, you're the best big brother in Night City." Lille shrugged, "Anyway, why is the destination Civic Center?" ”

"You'll know when you get there."

Bryce closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat.

It has to be said that this taxi trip he ordered was really luxurious, and the seats also activated the heating and massage functions.

The car fell silent, and Lille noticed that the car had also turned on the fragrance function.

1200 euros once a nervous relaxation fragrance full, biotechnology high-end goods

This company dog is so rich?

"The details are all in it, and there is also the advanced knowledge you need to master about AI, I'll take a break for a while."

Bryce pulled out a chip.

Lille took the chip, didn't bother with the problem, and was ready to plug in the chip to learn.

However, before entering the study, Lille asked another question: "Only these two AIs?" Isn't there a third one? ”

"There used to be legends that the Internet in each area itself was a huge AI, but the Internet no longer exists.

At least now, we can't observe this so-called over-limit AI, and we can't verify what happened before.

Instead of believing in the street legends, learn what has been proven. ”

Bryce closed his eyes and answered Lille's question nonchalantly.
