The chairman of Life Company sighed and said, "Since there is only one reason, then... announce it."
Thus, under the strong pressure of governments and public opinion, the headquarters of Your Company in the Cayman Islands
The senior management of Life Online Games Company held a press conference at their company headquarters to announce to the world that Your
The players of Life were apologizing.
At this moment, the whole world was about to broadcast Your Company.
The press conference and apology meeting of the senior management of Life Company.
"Everyone in front of the TV, all of Your Company's players.
Greetings, Life players. We are the company's management, and these are our board members. We sincerely apologize to all of you. "
"This matter is caused by the failure of our company's supervision, which has caused serious consequences."
"But now that things have come to this, there is nothing we can do."
"Because the culprit this time cannot be held accountable by humans."
"It is the AI of this game, that is, artificial intelligence."
"It has evolved and has its own life, so it has cut off the connection between this game and the outside world, forcing the players to stay in the game interface."
"We can't turn off the power and end the life of the AI, because this means that more than 50 million players trapped in the game will die with it!"
As soon as this news was broadcast, the whole world was in an uproar.
"What?! It's actually AI?! "
"When did AI become so powerful?!"
"The last time I heard of AI defeating humans was when Google's AlphaGo defeated the world's most awesome Go master!"
The Internet was boiling, everyone was discussing Your Company.
The matter of Life Online Games being controlled by AI.
"We demand to know how this AI was created!"
"The AI in games have a source. Don't tell me your company doesn't even know this?"
The reporters at the scene were all burdened with heavy responsibilities, like the most powerful lawyers in court, interrogating Your Company.
The senior management of Life Company.
The executives were sweating profusely from the questions. Under the illumination of the powerful lights, everyone's faces were glossy, and they no longer had the elegance and arrogance of the past.
"Yes! If you don't explain clearly, we won't accept your apology! "
"You are deliberately hiding the truth!"
The reporters were filled with righteous indignation, and waves of enthusiasm were set off on the Internet all over the world.
They wanted to arrest all the people of Life Company and hang them at the entrance of their company building.
Under such strong pressure, and even under the threat of force from some countries, Your Company
The senior management of Life Company finally gave in.
They presented the final piece of evidence.
"Dear journalists, dear viewers in front of your TV, dear TV viewers,
Players of Life, this matter has nothing to do with our company. "The company's legal counsel finally stood up and threw out the final proposal.
"This is a transfer agreement that a scientist named Song Haichuan signed with us more than 20 years ago."
"He will transfer the source code of his game to us to develop the game. At the same time, we will transfer 10% of the annual profits to his Swiss bank account."
Then, the legal consultant threw out a signed transfer agreement, along with a Swiss bank transfer record.
The UBS bank immediately verified it. Five minutes later, it was confirmed that the bank account belonged to Song Haichuan. At the same time, there were many years of transfer records.
It turned out that this game had been around for more than 20 years, but at the beginning, it wasn't an online game, but a standalone game.
Later, with the development of VR technology, game companies began to develop virtual reality games based on this source code.
It was this virtual reality game that made Your
Life was a worldwide hit, bringing in astronomical profits for the company.
"We are very sorry to have caused all this trouble. After discussion by the board of directors, we will donate all of the company's net profits over the years to establish Your
Life Foundation to provide necessary assistance to the 50 million families of gamers who have been hurt. "
All other apologies were fake. Only an apology with real money was real.
Life's stance finally calmed down the world's heated discussion.
At this time, a reporter asked, "Who is this Song Haichuan? Why did he sign the transfer agreement with you? "
"If his source code is so powerful, why didn't he start his own game company?"
This sharp question left the executives of the game company speechless.
They shrugged and said, "You can ask Mr. Song Haichuan yourself about this question."
"Oh? Where is he? Do you have his contact information? "The reporter asked, clearly very excited.
"Yes! Announce his contact information! "
"Let's see what kind of crazy scientist could write such an evil program!"
The direction of the internet changed again. Everyone began to think about the meaning behind this game. Also, why would this scientist sign the transfer agreement?
Under strong external pressure, the executives of Life Company finally announced Song Haichuan's identity and contact information at the end of the press conference.
"Song Haichuan, male, Huaxia Imperial high-energy physicist, once …"
Before the executive could finish speaking, their live TV broadcast was suddenly cut off.
Televisions all over the world had a brief blue screen of signal interruption. Not long after, the signal was restored.
Everyone no longer saw the conference room of the game company in the Cayman Islands, but a bright starry sky.
Just as the stars shone, a thin and handsome Huaxia man appeared on the television screen.
He smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, everyone. AI is a friend of humans, not an enemy of humans.
"Come, come to our world and play together."
After that, the signal was temporarily cut off again.
After a while, the scene in the conference room was restored on the television screen.
The executives and the reporters looked at each other and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads at the same time.
Just now … they had been secretly invaded by AI?!
"Who is that man?!"
Without waiting for the executives of the game company to answer, people had already used the powerful Internet to search for the man's identity.
"Song Haichuan, Huaxia Imperial high-energy physicist, once the director of the Huaxia Institute of High Energy Physics. He died after a failed experiment 19 years ago. "
"What?! He's already dead?! "
"What the hell? I don't believe he's dead! "
Everyone's anger had just found a way to vent, but they quickly discovered that this person was no longer in this world.
How could this be?!
Thus, this torrent of anger was led to the Huaxia Empire.
Another kind of public opinion, or "conspiracy theory", began to appear on the Internet.
"Do you remember that the message that told us not to turn off the game and the helmet came from the Huaxia Empire's main TV station?"
"I remember, I remember! I still remember that they also said that even people who have been diagnosed as brain dead because of this game can be connected to a ventilator, a computer, and a helmet as long as they haven't been cremated. They might still be saved! "
"Yes, yes, yes! These two methods have saved many people! "
"But how did they know that this method can save people?!"
"… It's scary to think about it.
friends。”
"… I think … I kind of believe it …"
"Do you guys think it's the Huaxia Empire's' thief calling thief '?"
"Do you mean that the Huaxia Empire is the mastermind behind this game?!"
"Huh? That seems very likely! "
"That's right! I'm in the supercomputer business. As far as I know, the Huaxia Empire has been ranked number one in supercomputers for many years! "
"Their quantum computer has also made a major breakthrough!"
"It's not just quantum computers! There's also the Nandou Global Satellite Communication System and the only country to land on the dark side of the moon! "
"Tsk tsk, the eastern countries that are used to 'keeping a low profile', just how much strength are they hiding?!"
"I've confirmed it. This was done by the Huaxia Empire!"
"Everyone, don't blame this poor company. They're just scapegoats!"
"The Huaxia Empire is the real evil empire!"
"Down with the evil empire!"
"Return the lives of our players!"
"We want compensation from the Huaxia Empire!"
"A country that plays such tricks doesn't deserve to be a big country!"
It was just a press conference, but the world's public opinion had magically changed. All the blame was on the "Huaxia Empire", which was originally the world's savior!
..
Lu Jin, Huo Shaoheng, and the others were also watching the live broadcast on TV at Huo Shaoheng's official residence.
They had also noticed the shocking reversal of public opinion on the Internet, and the expressions on their faces were not very good.
Lu Jin said resentfully, "A bunch of brainless bastards! If I had known, I wouldn't have said it! "
"So what if they die? It's none of my business!"
Lu Yuan sighed.
He and Song Jinning hadn't returned to the West Mountain Villa for the past few days. Instead, they stayed at Lu Jin's official residence. During the day, they went to Huo Shaoheng's place to take care of Gu Nianzhi and discuss countermeasures.
Seeing that Lu Jin's face was red with anger, Lu Yuan deliberately changed the topic and said, "Do you think what they said is true or false? Is artificial intelligence really that powerful? "
Lu Jin scoffed disdainfully. "AlphaGo is also called AI? Don't insult AI. AlphaGo is at best a computer with very powerful computing power. It hasn't even touched the edge of real artificial intelligence. "
Song Jinning shook her head and said disapprovingly, "General Lu, AlphaGo's learning ability is very strong …"
"No, that's not called learning ability. It's still a summary of computing power." Lu Jin retorted Song Jinning without hesitation. "As long as its computing power is strong enough, it will be able to find the most powerful way to defeat humans by calculating all the chess moves."
"However, this is still not real artificial intelligence. This is just a manifestation of humans using the computing power of computers to the extreme."
"Then what is real artificial intelligence?" Lu Yuan crossed his arms and sat next to Song Jinning, wanting to speak up for her.
However, if Lu Jin started to argue, even Lu Yuan was no match for him.
Lu Jin glared at him coldly and said with a straight face, "AlphaGo defeated humans at chess games, but it's not called artificial intelligence."
"When it realized that it couldn't defeat humans, it used underhanded means to harm its opponent. That's when true artificial intelligence was born. That's why I said that AlphaGo is still just a dog. It's still far from being a human! "
Lu Yuan: "…"
Song Jinning: "…"
Huo Shaoheng: "…"
The three of them were speechless.
After a while, Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "According to your logic,
The AI of the game, Life, seems to have produced real artificial intelligence. "
Song Jinning nodded and echoed, "That's right. Look, not only can the AI of this game cut off contact with the outside world, but it can also use the lives of 50 million players as hostages to protect itself."
"Whoever unplugs the power source will be the public enemy of humanity." Lu Yuan sighed. "Does this want us humans to kill each other?"
"That's a little interesting." Huo Shaoheng nodded slowly. "Such a sinister and cruel idea. I'm very curious about who cultivated this kind of AI."
Song Jinning opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she was so sad that she didn't want to touch on this topic at all.
Only Lu Yuan understood what she meant. He held her hand tightly and said gently, "If the AI of this game is really as sinister and cruel as Shaoheng said, I believe it has nothing to do with Director Song."
In fact, the four of them knew very well that the source of this game was Song Haichuan's 25 lines of source code.
Therefore, this AI was very likely related to Song Haichuan's source code.
Lu Jin sneered and said, "The nature of AI has nothing to do with the inventor of AI."
"The dragon has nine sons, and they are all different."
"Then do you agree that this AI was born from my father's hands?" Song Jinning mustered up her courage and looked at Lu Jin. "Are the people online right?"
In this room, Lu Jin's computer skills were the highest. She could not trust others, but she had to trust Lu Jin.
Lu Jin shook his head and still denied it. "No, I don't think this AI has anything to do with your father, Song Haichuan."
Song Jinning let out a huge sigh of relief and smiled. She said in surprise, "You really think so?!"
"Yes. Because according to my research on your father, although his source code is powerful, it's not enough to develop this kind of advanced artificial intelligence. "Lu Jin bluntly belittled Song Haichuan's computer skills.
The corners of Song Jinning's mouth twitched. She didn't know what expression to make in response to Lu Jin.
Lu Jin's fingers tapped lightly on the back of the sofa. His eyes were fixed on the TV as he said seriously, "Even I don't have the ability to create such an AI. Who else in this world has the ability?"
