Lil Pea waved a hand to the main brain, with a simple innocent smile on her face. She seemed unable to understand the meaning of "different life forms", but just regarded the black post in front of her as a new friend, Unsurprisingly, the master brain also responded to this.
Hao Ren held Lil Pea firmly in his arms and looked down at the little mermaid. Before coming here, he had discovered that Lil Pea's performance was not right along the way, so he asked a little bit about the situation of the little guy-Lil Pea's mind was not yet mature, so he couldn't say what she felt clearly. , But through guessing and reasoning, Hao Ren still vaguely grasped the truth of the matter.
Lil Pea feels the decline and extinction of an ethnic group. This ethnic group can only be humans in the final fortress, and the failure of the main brain may be related to it.
"To be honest, I have dealt with many races, and there are all kinds of life forms-even elemental creatures and pure spirits, but artificial intelligence is the most difficult one in my impression," Hao Ren Looking at the main brain and saying, "I don't know how to convince a supercomputer with a stubborn logic and a strict thinking process, because the evidence I can provide is vague and unprovable and unfalsifiable for you. I only It can be said that if you really want to complete your mission, if you are still loyal to your creator, then you should at least try to believe us outsiders, even if this lacks any logical support, at least it is A choice. "
This time the main brain was silent for a longer time than before, and even the lights on the black cylindrical surface were dimmed by two thirds. When Hao Ren thought that this super artificial intelligence was dead, the latter ’s voice was suddenly It sounded again: "Humanity is dying."
"Humans ... are going to die?" Vivian frowned, "Can you tell me what is going on?"
Lil Pea waved his little arm vigorously in the arms of Hao Ren: "My dad can help you, my dad is super powerful!"
In response to Hao Ren and his party, a slight mechanical friction sound suddenly came from across the hall.
Hao Ren saw a sudden appearance of numerous cracks on the ring wall on the other side of the rotunda. Based on these cracks, the entire wall was surging like waves, and the layers of metal were surging. After shrinking and folding in the middle, and the wall fading away, a wide passage appears in front of everyone.
"The door to the final palace?" Hao Ren realized the meaning of the main brain at the moment of seeing the passage, and was immediately surprised, "You let us go in?"
"Humans have said that they can't give up any hope-even if it's slim, it's like an illusion," the master said quietly, "The situation can't be worse, my logic system can't continue to deduce after Things, so come in, maybe this is what humans mean. "
Hao Ren and his team exchanged a few glances at each other. They thought about going into the final palace to meet the human beings, but they did not expect that the main brain would be so happy when the door was opened. But in any case, the door to the final Yan Palace was already open, and they had no reason to stand still.
It is completely different from the other parts of the fortress. The corridor leading to the final palace is brightly lit, the walls are white, and the bright lights dispel the sense of depression that everyone has accumulated along the way, as if in the cold steel world. There is a trace of vigor and vitality out of thin air.
After walking a long distance along the corridor, murals depicting the world of the mother star began to appear on the walls on both sides. There were green mountains and green water, towering giant trees, and bustling cities hidden in the mountains. It is a piece of history frozen in memories, hangs on the wall vividly for people to guess the pastoral pastoral time that was nearly 10,000 years ago.
And after passing through these beautiful old scenery, it can only be a cold reality.
Another rotunda appeared in front of Hao Ren-this rotunda is about the same size as the main brain center, except that the main color is bright white, and there are no buzzing servers and cable ducts around. . The wall opposite the hall is a layer of transparent polymer. Through that layer of polymer, Hao Ren can see a large "greenhouse" with various plants and integrated houses. However, no one is in the greenhouse.
Lily ran curiously to the transparent "glass": "Master brain, where is human Ah?"
As if to respond to Lily ’s inquiry, a round hole was opened in the center of the ground of the rotunda while her voice fell, and then a glass container like a giant test tube slowly rose from the round hole Come up.
The cylindrical glass container is filled with a pale pink nutrient solution, but the solution is soaked with twisted and mutated flesh polymers. Those polymers seem to be crushed and mixed in the craziest way. Meat pieces, they don't have any fixed shape, and they don't see any rational movement laws. They are just soaked in nutrient solution, wriggling and deforming aimlessly, sometimes merging with each other, and sometimes splitting.
Every short period of time, a light blood color will ooze out and disperse in the solution on the surface of the creeping meat pieces. Although the filter device seems to be running in the container, the dispersed blood color still stains the solution. Light pink.
After seeing these things, Y’zaks subconsciously asked, "What is this?"
"This is a human being." The voice of the master brain came from the speaker in the corner of the hall.
"Humans ?!" Hao Ren stunned. "Humans on your side look like this?"
As he said, he looked at the N-6 not far away. As a result, he also saw a shocked and unbelievable look on his face. Obviously, the human downloaded from the agent ’s memory bank The information is not the appearance of the pile of meat.
Vivian frowned: "When did humans become this look?"
"The mutation is happening all the time, and there is no clear point in time. From the day the war started, or from the day the creators first fled the parent star, the power of the planet devourers has been imprinted on The human body, "the main brain said with a lack of emotional electronic synthesis," before creating the surrogate, they have realized that humans can never escape the power of the planet devourer, which is difficult to explain with worldly knowledge, and It will eventually end their civilization altogether-the survival rate of newborns is declining, fatal diseases and limb mutations are increasing, and millions of people have fled their mother stars, but their population is declining every year. So they created Actors, let Actors perform their missions on their behalf and take them home. "
The voice of the main brain continues: "In the first few thousand years, humans can still move with the agents. During that time, they taught the agents a lot of things, including how to think; after that, a thousand Years, due to deformity problems and a rapid decline in physical fitness, it is difficult for humans to continue to maintain social functions, so they built a large think tank to turn human knowledge and thinking methods into data that can be downloaded and understood by agents, and they also created me, And gave me the responsibility to protect and guide the whole society; in the next one thousand years, the mutations at the genetic level finally deteriorated to the point of no relief at all, and the greenhouse environment in the fortress could not maintain human survival, so they had to enter cultivation Container.
"In the next thousand years, no newborns will be born, and humans will survive with the help of incubators for a long time.
"In the next thousand years, they began to lose their form, and even lost their individual isolation. They are getting closer and closer to the original cell community morphology. In ancient historical records, similar morphology is also in the mother It has appeared on the star-it is a phenomenon caused by the red blood tide released by the planet phagocytosis. After being touched by the red blood tide, the organism will dissolve into this cell group in a short time.
"And then, this is what you see."
Vivian's brows are still tightly ruffled: "... The agent outside knows nothing about this?"
She glanced at the next N-6. From the latter's almost dead expression, she had already got the answer to the question.
"The secret is buried deep in the fortress," the master replied, "ordinary agents do not know what is happening to humans."
Lily asked curiously: "Because this will cause them to crash?"
"The mission of the agent is to help humans regain their parent star. This mission is inscribed deep in their memory when each agent walks off the production line," the main brain replied. What is left? "
Hao Ren ’s eyes moved back and forth between the dull N-6 and the glass container in the center of the hall, thoughtfully.
"The human condition has been deteriorating for so many years," he raised his head, and said to the air, but he knew that the main brain was watching him all the time. Your fault? "
"Humans have created me and let me serve them, but they haven't told me what I should do if they leave one day," the master replied lightly. "For thousands of years, all my tasks have been To complete the mission they gave me-to build a lunar base, develop a society of agents, create an army, and counterattack the mother star, all because humans need me to do this. "
Hao Ren exhaled slowly: "But now, even" human "itself is about to disappear."
That's why the main brain has a fatal malfunction.
He has long discovered that the human brain and the agent created by humans on this planet are not the same thing-if the agent is an extreme imitation of human beings, from words and deeds to thinking skills are no different from humans Intelligent individual with perceptual thinking, then the main brain is more like a supercomputer with superior computing power but lacking perceptual thinking and fuzzy computing capabilities. This design should have far-reaching considerations at first, perhaps to ensure the whole agency The stability of the society of the people may also be to ensure that the long-term goal of "regaining the parent star" will never change, but in any case, the results of this design to the present have been far from the original purpose of mankind.
When no technological means can restore the fate of human demise, the strict logic system of the master brain can only draw one conclusion: he will never be able to complete the tasks assigned to him by the creator.
So he started to malfunction, became confused, and began to enter the countdown for self-destruction.
"Does" human beings "have the ability to think? Or, can they communicate?" Hao Ren asked.
"... that was a long time ago," the master replied.
As Hao Ren thought: there is no human being who can correct the logical conflict of the main brain-they may have had this opportunity, but now, everything is too late.
