Chen Mo looked at the virtual screen on his bracelet. Two of the first tech trees had been unlocked, leaving only the intermediate AI for artificial intelligence.
Unlocking this tech tree required unlocking the VR brain and neural connection technology, developing a related game, and collecting ten million emotions from players. That was all done.
Not only that, Chen Mo also earned an extra one thousand lottery chances, which allowed him to unlock one or two more tech trees for the next level.
He wasn't sure how many he could unlock, as all the tech trees for the next level were locked before he unlocked all the tech trees for the next level. There were no hints as to what they were.
After unlocking the first layer of [Virtual Reality Technology], [Artificial Intelligence Technology], and [Hardware Technology], the three lines converged to form a common technology point. After activating this technology point, the three sections separated again into three technology points.
Chen Mo lightly tapped on the "Unlock" button on the intermediate AI.
Just like before, all the knowledge related to artificial intelligence entered Chen Mo's mind, becoming part of his knowledge that he could use at will.
The "intermediate AI" referred to an AI that had the same level of intelligence as humans. It could pass the Turing Test and communicate with players, while humans wouldn't be able to tell if the AI was a real person or an AI.
In other words, using this tech to create an AI that could chat with otaku online could easily fulfill the dreams of tens of millions of otaku.
Uhh … there's something wrong with using this tech tree?
Chen Mo didn't need to think too much about it, all he needed to know was that this tech tree was amazing.
Chen Mo didn't care about this amazing AI for now, and instead focused on the next tech tree.
There was only one tech tree on the second level, and he could only continue after unlocking it.
Tech Tree Obscurer: Stop the world from wondering why you have so much technology that could change the world. Correspondingly, these technologies can only be used in video games.
Chen Mo frowned. It was obvious that this tech tree was more of a negative than a positive to him.
Indeed, unlocking three tech trees in a row would raise a lot of suspicions. After all, these three tech trees could seriously affect the development of the video game industry, and could even change the world. Chen Mo was so young, and he didn't have any records of any higher education, so no one suspected that it was fake.
But it wasn't a big deal, as Chen Mo had plenty of ways to cover it up. For example, he could set up a research department within Thunderbolt Entertainment and hire experts and research teams from across the country to turn this technology into his own. Even if the Game Committee or some people in China were to question him, Chen Mo could use the Intelligence Lowering Halo to wipe his ass clean.
Although it helped Chen Mo solve his problem, it also restricted the technology tree to the gaming field. Obviously, the meaning of the system was very clear: You can play in the game honestly. If you want to cross over to earn money, then you can forget about unlocking the technology below.
Take artificial intelligence technology as an example. If it wasn't used in games, it could be used to create a theme park composed of androids like in Westworld for the rich to play. It could also be used to pass on human memories and cognition to greatly extend human lifespan.
But this was very different from the system's goals. Therefore, this technology restricted the development of the technology tree.
Chen Mo could understand this, but he was a little angry that this technology required two hundred lottery chances to activate.
Chen Mo had no other choice but to activate the Technology Tree Concealer and continue looking at the technology tree below.
The technology tree on the third floor was split into three sections.
[Virtual Reality Technology] Consciousness Implantation: Implants specific thoughts into the player's brain at a specific time, allowing the player to react to unexpected situations when they don't know what to do. The implantation will only be effective for a short period of time, and won't affect the player's consciousness. At the same time, activating this skill can effectively eliminate the negative effects of violence, anger, pain, fear, and sadness on the player's mental state.
Unlocking Requirement: six hundred lottery chances
[Artificial Intelligence Technology] AI Lock: Lock the AI into the game. They will firmly believe that they are the characters they are playing, never doubting them under any circumstances.
Unlocking Requirement: two hundred lottery chances
[Hardware Technology] Storage Capacity Expansion (Level 2): Begin a technological breakthrough, increase the storage capacity and reading speed of all smart devices by ten times.
Unlocking Requirement: five hundred lottery chances
Chen Mo was a little annoyed when he first activated the Technology Tree Concealer, but after seeing the three technology trees, Chen Mo understood why the system required the Technology Tree Concealer to be activated first.
Obviously, this' Consciousness Implantation 'was a very dangerous technology. It could change the player's consciousness at will, and implant specific thoughts into the player's brain, equivalent to hypnosis or brainwashing. On the other hand, it could also eliminate the negative emotions of the player, turning the gaming pod into a' Fat Otaku Happy Pod ', and a' Physical Happy Pod ', directly and violently changing the player's emotions.
If one were to delve deeper into it, it would be the Thought Stamp in the Three-Body Problem. If Chen Mo tampered with this, he could control the consciousness of all players through the gaming pod, implanting the Thought Stamp of 'Always Obey Salent', indirectly achieving his goal of world domination …
Moreover, if this thing was exposed, it wouldn't be something that could be solved by the IQ Reduction Aura. No country or organization would allow something like this to exist. By then, no matter how Chen Mo tried to hide it, there was a 100% chance that this technology would be completely banned, never to be used again.
Therefore, the System's Technology Tree Concealer was not only to reduce Chen Mo's unnecessary troubles, but also to restrict his actions, making it impossible for him to use this technology to become the new world's Cammy.
At the same time, the AI Lock could also be seen as a form of restriction. It would allow the AI's influence to only exist in the game, and not create a 'Skynet' that would have unexpected effects on the real world.
Chen Mo understood. Although he was a little disappointed that he wouldn't be able to become the new world's Cammy, it was a good thing. At least the story wouldn't go in a strange direction.
Chen Mo had around eight hundred lottery chances left. He chose to activate the two technology trees, Consciousness Implantation and AI Lock.
