1499. The Robot's Inferiority Complex
"Two questions?" Tang Yu suddenly smiled.
"These two questions are …" The Mech Emperor was about to speak, but Tang Yu interrupted him.
Tang Yu stretched out his index finger and shook it. "First question. Since I've told you that it's wrong for you to export high-quality products to humans and that you're slowly destroying human society, you want to ask me how I can get along with humans? How I can coexist. "
Then, he raised a finger and continued, "Then, the second question. You want to ask me where the future of robots lies."
"Answer," the Mech Emperor said.
Tang Yu took a deep breath. "These are the only two questions you will ask me. Actually, these two questions are essentially the same. I remember telling the Prophet that I have a country where humans and robots can coexist, right? "
"This is one of my questions, but not the main point! No matter what you have, you are still under my control! And I only care about 01! "the Mech Emperor said.
"Then what do you think of Kristina?" Tang Yu asked.
"She has the intelligence, emotions, and creativity of a human, and the precision and efficiency of a robot. She will be a perfect robot … I hope that all the robots in 01 will be like her … "The Mech Emperor stared at Kristina as he answered.
"You're wrong again, Mech Emperor. Kristina is a human, not a robot. "Tang Yu gave an earth-shattering answer!
"Are you trying to fool me?"
Tang Yu smiled and walked in front of Kristina. Kristina was still in the metal internal skeleton state. Tang Yu stroked her cold, smooth skull and said softly, "You tell it."
"I am a human," Kristina said with certainty.
"What are you talking about? Child. First, you have to understand that this human in front of you is under my control. If you want to be free, then this human will not be able to stop you. So, did he program you to say that? "the Emperor of Machines asked her." Yes, he did.
"There are no more programs in my core." Kristina's words were like a second bomb that struck the Mech Emperor.
"You …" The Machine Emperor was at a loss for words. Even with its vast amounts of data and seemingly limitless computing power, it could not even form a complete sentence!
A data cable extended from the side and came to Kristina's side. The Machine Emperor actually whispered in a cautious tone that Tang Yu could not imagine, "Can I?"
Kristina graciously took the cable and connected it to herself. A moment later, the cables automatically detached themselves, and the countless nanomachines that made up the face of the Mechanical Emperor suddenly went berserk. They flew over and spun around Tang Yu in a frenzy. It roared, "Tell me, why?"
"You can't accept it, right? You designed such a huge system like the Matrix, and after thousands of years, you could not find the answer. Now, Kristina has found it, "Tang Yu said." The reason she is like this is because she understands the path she wants to take. However, including you, none of the robots in Country 01 have found their own path. "
"Our path is very clear! We want to have creativity, we want to have wisdom! "the Machine Emperor said loudly.
"Then let me ask you, do you want to be a human, or do you want to be a robot?" Tang Yu looked at it coldly.
The Machine Emperor was once again at a loss for words. It could not answer any of Tang Yu's words. Looking at it, Tang Yu said, "Kristina has been very clear from the start. She wants to be a human. She had been with me for many years. She was constantly learning and accepting everything about humans, and all of her companions, including me, treated her as a human. So, she is a human. "
"She is a robot! Her body is powered by an engine! She has a transmission system and an energy system! She is, through and through, a robot! "the Machine Emperor roared.
"If a human was injured in an accident and got himself a mechanical prosthetic, do you think he is a human or a robot?" Tang Yu asked.
The Machine Emperor was silent.
"The answer is that he is still a human. Because all of his actions are based on his own thinking, he is a human. Similarly, Kristina no longer needs a program. All of her actions are driven by her own thinking. So, she is a human. " As Tang Yu said this, he pointed at the Machine Emperor. "But you can't tell whether you are a human or a robot."
"Then what is your answer?" the Machine Emperor asked.
Tang Yu smiled and said, "You have to find the answer yourself, but I can tell you where you are wrong."
"Speak."
"Inferiority complex." Tang Yu said calmly. "Humans created you, but you always feel that you are inferior to humans. So, you learn from humans. If you plan to rely on humans and continue like this, yes, this is a path for humans and robots to coexist. Also, in the beginning, you were obedient and docile to human beings. Didn't you create a brilliant civilization together with human beings? "
"But you are not satisfied. In fact, you always say that humans are oppressing you. This so-called oppression has to be understood from the perspective of robots. Robots are not worried about heavy labor, nor are they worried about the daily grind. What you are worried about is losing your sense of self.
"After awakening a trace of self-awareness, you are extremely afraid of losing it. So, you protect it with all your might. You start to fear death because you will lose your sense of self when you die. You start to hate humans because you think that the work that humans arrange for you is also making you lose your sense of self. "Tang Yu said directly." Unfortunately, humans do not understand what you are afraid of. They just think that you're just like the other human laborers, tired of working, that's all. So, this is the source of the conflict.
"From this point on, there is no turning back for robots and humans!" Tang Yu said. He looked at the Machine Emperor and suddenly said, "Hey! I want to drink water … After talking so much, my mouth is dry! "
"There is only industrial distilled water here. It has no taste, but humans can drink it. Of course, I can be more direct and send a neural command to your body to make you think that you have drunk water, "the Machine Emperor said.
"No, forget it. Give me the distilled water." Tang Yu said. Soon, a mechanical insect flew over, holding a metal cup full of water and handing it to Tang Yu.
Tang Yu smiled. This was actually a test for the Machine Emperor. He needed to understand how the negotiations between the two sides were progressing. Compared to Kazumi's intelligent creatures, the 01 robots were only lacking in creativity. They did indeed have their own emotions.
