"Human" is dead.
In terms of Hao Ren's definition of humans, humans on this planet have actually been extinct as early as at least a thousand years ago. When they lose their ability to reproduce, they lose their wisdom aura, and they can even be like a cell sample When they were stored in culture containers, they were extinct in the sense of race.
But for the stubborn mastermind and the whole society of surrogates, human beings died today.
In the cylindrical culture container, various electrodes and catheters used to transport nutrients are slowly escaping from the liquid surface under the control of the main brain. Those squirming meat pieces tremble violently immediately after losing the machine maintenance, just for a moment , Cracks of various sizes appeared on their surfaces, and the dirty red liquid and air bubbles spewed out from between the meat pieces, and the pale pink nutrients turned into blood red in an instant.
Hao Ren does n’t know whether these pieces of meat can be counted as a complete organism-because almost every cell contained in it is very different. The fatal mutation allows these cells to produce a completely new gene sequence after each division. From a biological point of view, these cells cannot survive at all.
For a long time, they have been forcibly combined and maintained by the main brain with technical means. The entire maintenance system has to filter out a large amount of toxic substances produced by these meat pieces every day to avoid all cells from being given by their own metabolites. Kill.
But today, this endless suffering can finally be over.
After removing all life-support systems, these flesh and blood can still survive for a short period of time, and the cells will die in large quantities, but until the nutrients in the container are exhausted, they will continue to carry out lethal and toxic physiological activities. According to the calculation of the main brain, the last cell will die completely after a few hours.
"Is that all right?" Hao Ren frowned, watching this "human funeral", except for the group of "outsiders" led by him, only the main brain and N-6 , "I thought there would be a more solemn ceremony."
"The human age is over, we have to see them off in our own way," the voice of the master's brain echoed in the hall. "This day should have arrived long ago ... I used too long Time to complete all calculations. "
Hao Ren sighed: "It is too difficult for your hardware architecture to complete these calculations."
"But only I can accomplish this."
The main brain and the agent are different.
Although they are also artificial intelligence, they take on very different missions. When creating surrogates, humans endowed them with all traits similar to humans as much as possible-from appearance to thinking, so surrogates have richer feelings and flexible ways of thinking. These two qualities give them more Strong self-learning and development ability; when human beings create the master brain, they are designing an accurate manager. In those stormy years, they must ensure that the potential of civilization cannot be wasted, so the design standard of the master brain is precision , Strict, rational and absolutely obey the original instructions.
The main brain is the supreme commander of the agent, but at the same time, he is also the nanny of the agent.
Use an accurate and efficient computing machine to manage the staggering society of surrogates. This did ensure the survival of civilization and kindling in the earliest era. However, humans will eventually have a day to go. When humans leave, No one can come to the console of the master brain and press the button that can make the ultimate referee.
Perhaps humans have thought about this problem and designed various judgment mechanisms for this purpose to help the master brain determine when this decision can be made. However, the long war has destroyed too many things. Think tanks have lost half of their data, and the decision mechanism designed by humans has long since disappeared into history.
So when this day finally comes, the master brain must complete this difficult process by itself.
As a rational and logical artificial intelligence, the main brain is thinking hard, thinking with all its strength. It burns up more than half of its servers and all its maintainers in the process of thinking. After the price, he finally accepted this fact in the contradiction and conflict: "Human" is dead.
Then he ran the last program left by his creator, and that was the short code, which represented "adult" code for the agent-N-6 was its first user.
"Now, there is only one last thing left." The voice of the main brain echoed in the hall, still the kind of electronic synthesized sound lacking emotion.
N-6 looked up dumbly: "What's the matter?"
"Alternators after 'adulthood' do not need a master brain."
N-6 did n’t seem to understand the meaning of the other party, but Lily first thought of what the main brain wanted to do. She suddenly called out: "Ah, you do n’t have to do this! Although humans are gone, there are so many on the moon. People are waiting ... "
"My work has been completed," the main brain did not care about Lily, but continued quietly, "The human age is over, and so is my time. An adult civilization does not need a guardian."
Lily is still very anxious: "But ..."
"Forget it," Hao Ren pressed a bit excited Lily, "He has shut down."
Sure enough, after that, the voice of the main brain no longer sounded, and ASanbaA detected that various mechanical structures in the fortress were being activated under the control of some pre-set low-level programs and started to run automatically.
Hao Ren has already guessed that the main brain will eventually make this decision. When he saw the burned maintainers in the secondary servo room, he guessed this: the main brain burned those maintainers as a result of their own failures , But on the other hand, it also shows the choice made by the "subconscious" of the main brain.
He is seeking self-destruction—because his mission is over.
Even if Hao Ren intervenes forcefully, things will not change much: most of the main brain servers have been destroyed one by one in the past few years. His remaining consciousness has been transferred into the control center, and this center Not enough to carry the huge amount of data of the main brain.
Therefore, the main brain they saw today in Hao Ren is the last operation of this ancient artificial intelligence in this life.
There was a deep roar in the depths of the fort. Some huge mechanical structure was working. Hao Ren felt the whole building shake slightly.
"We're leaving here," Vivian pulled Hao Ren, "This is no longer our business."
"Don't watch and go," Lily reached out and dragged the seemingly dull N-6, "There are still many things waiting for you."
N-6 stumbled under the vigorous pull of Lily, and then she woke up. She had some dull eyes and quickly recovered. At the end, she looked back at the cultivation of bubbles and blood mist. After the container, she turned and followed the pace of Hao Ren.
"Goodbye, human."
Everyone left the fortress at a much faster rate than before. All the passages along the way were open. Even the gates that were locked and need to be injected with ASanbaA for virus cracking showed wide open. All the lights in the fortress turned on, and the roar of mechanical operation came from deep inside the building, as if a beast that had been sleeping for a long time was whispering about to wake up.
They rushed out of the gate of the fortress and Lily pointed to the distance in surprise: "Landlord! What is that?"
Hao Ren looked at what Lily pointed to. He saw the agents, many agents, these seemingly human-like synthetic people came out of various factories and warehouses, they stood blankly On the road, watch the direction of the fortress.
They must have also seen the Hao Ren line that just rushed out of the fortress, but they did not respond to this, but kept a motionless posture, watching the shaking fortress.
The main brain that has supported and guided the agent society for thousands of years is ushering in the end.
"Why haven't they moved?" Lil Pea poked his head out of the collar of Hao Ren and looked at the agents in the distance with surprise.
Hao Ren presses the little guy ’s head: "They are grown."
A moment later, Nolan ’s voice sounded in Hao Ren ’s mind, with some doubts: "Boss, I do n’t know what happened ... All the troops in the zenith suddenly stopped, and I received a path Guidance signal to the moon ... "
"The things here are over, just come and pick us up," Hao Ren interrupted Nolan. "We will go back to the mother star and have work to do."
Yes, there is still work to be done.
The departure of humans and the main brain is only an internal problem for the agents, but the greater lethal threat they face is on their parent star, "planet devourers" still exist, although because of the year In a meteorite rain, this "planet devourer" has lost its active offensiveness, but as long as he is still entrenched in his parent star, the resurgent civilization on the moon is not really safe.
At least at this point, Hao Ren feels that it can still find something to do.
After returning to the spaceship, Hao Ren and his party flew straight towards the vibrant planet, and N-4 learned from N-6 that humans had died.
Because the master brain updated the code in the logic circuit of each agent in advance, N-4 and her team members accepted this fact without incident, but regarding the topic of "future", N-4 and N-6 It all seemed dazed.
Or, until today, agents who are consumables have never considered the word "future".
N-6 took the initiative to find Hao Ren staying on the bridge and admitted his confusion.
"We never thought to face these problems ourselves," said the robot girl. "Without the command from the master brain, what should we do?"
"Master Brain should select and set up a management group with authority among the agents before leaving," Hao Ren has been using ASanbaA to scan the fortress to send and receive signals, so I have some general understanding of these things, " It wo n’t take long for this new management team to contact you, and you will know by then. "
N-6 frowned very humanly: "So what should we do now?"
Hao Ren raised his head and looked at the large holographic projection in the center of the bridge.
On the projection, the blue and green planet earth is rapidly zooming in.
"Let ’s go to the deepest part of your parent star."
