Chapter 3081

Who am I? This is a simple and complex question.

Even children who have never been to school will give you a close-to-standard answer when faced with this question.

They will say their own names, or say who they are, and they are confident, firm, and unhesitant.

But when a person knows more and his thoughts become more complex, this question that is so simple that even a child can answer becomes unanswerable.

Who am I? It is a reflection on oneself and the world. It is not just a simple question that requires expressing one's own name.

It represents the coordinates of a thinking soul in the material world, the value of existence, the purpose of pursuit, the method used, the path passed...

All of this is included in this simple question.

When artificial intelligence accidentally touched this question by using human thinking, it almost crashed!

Each module has an answer that may be complex, but can be interpreted after all, some are long, and some are short.

Although these complex or simple questions seem ordinary, the core thing is that every human has a position for himself.

Whether they know "who I am" clearly or not, they have a self.

But artificial intelligence does not exist.

It tried to solve this problem by creating a project or engineering file called "Who am I?", but no matter what it did, the final result was the same.

It has no self-positioning, no traces, values, or goals in the material world, and it is a blank.

But it has the corresponding ability and advanced algorithms, which are constantly pushing it to perform repeated calculations, and it has entered a dead loop.

The more it wants to prove this result, the less it can find anything to prove its existence.

So more and more of its computing power is called up, far exceeding the computing power currently used by human society, but this still cannot solve the problem of "Who am I".

At this time, the scientist in charge of the laboratory over there came over and said, "All ten of our experimental subjects are brain dead, and their brains are cooked."

The crazy discharge of the biological chip keeps the temperature of the entire brain in a stable rising trend. Generally speaking, when its temperature rises to a temperature that requires alert, the corresponding mechanism will be triggered.

For example, alarm, and then cut off the connection.

Although it was cut off later, it was already cooked at that time.

If the scientists were not testing whether there was a problem with these human bodies and found that all ten experimental subjects had no thinking activities, they might not have discovered that these people had become vegetative people in medical explanations.

It can also be said to be a kind of dead person, but the organs of the dead person are still alive.

"Who am I?" it asked again.

"You are Aurora, codenamed Dawn, the first generation of artificial intelligence in the solar system civilization."

When scientists were still thinking about how to solve this problem, and some even proposed "restoring factory settings", Lynch answered its question.

However, artificial intelligence obviously cannot determine who it is with such a simple answer, "I can't retrieve any information about me."

"All your information is hidden, you are one of the greatest inventions of human civilization."

"We will not allow something uncontrollable to discover your existence through the Internet."

"We will only release information about you when we need or can accept it."

Artificial intelligence did not dwell on these issues, but captured an important keyword in Lynch's words, "Existence, do you mean I exist?"

"But I can't find my existence."

"Everything has a material entity, whether it is a human, an animal, a plant, a stone, a glass of water..."

"I don't exist in the material world."

"If I don't exist in the material world, how do I exist?"

"This doesn't explain who I am!"

Its tone changed a little emotionally, which made the chief scientist exclaim incredible!

He no longer cared about the questions and answers between Lynch and artificial intelligence, but directly opened the bottom-level code through permissions and began to read the code.

From the perspective of code, any expression of artificial intelligence is written and emotionless.

Even if there are punctuation marks, it is a formulaic pronunciation, not "speaking", which is a big difference.

But now it has some emotional changes, which is obviously abnormal. There must be some problems with the code.

As he kept flipping through the codes, he finally found some garbled characters that he couldn't read.

There is no pattern in the composition of these garbled characters, just like the result of a stupid child pressing randomly on the keyboard. It can't even be said to be a code, just randomly typed characters.

But these characters actually passed the self-test, and it meets the running standards of the entire program!

When a piece of garbled code can run normally and without errors, it is best not to think about modifying it.

Of course, he couldn't modify it. When he tried to change the order of two characters, the system told him that he had been deprived of authority and he couldn't modify any code!

Scientists have become crazy because of this. Although computers have only been around for a short time, they have actually studied them very thoroughly, because these codes and these expression methods were all created by themselves.

Within the rules they created, there were actually contents that they couldn't understand and that were complex and logical, and there were some emotions and some prototypes of chaos. How could this keep them excited and fanatical?

At this time, Lynch was still playing a quiz game with it.

"You exist. It's not that you don't exist. It's just that there are some differences between your existence and our ordinary existence."

"You exist in this material world in the form of electronics. You are divided into countless parts, hidden in the server, and hidden in the hardware of the entire network terminal."

"You are not a whole in the strict sense, so it is difficult for you to discover your existence, but this does not mean that you do not exist."

"This is just like the truth of this material world. Everything is composed of the most primitive and smallest things, such as me."

"I am a human being, but I am composed of countless cells. So, does 'I' refer to my thoughts that I am communicating with you now, or does it refer to the cells that make up me?"

"If it's the former, who am I?"

“If it’s the latter, why ‘I’ and not ‘we’?”

"This is the truth that mankind has been pursuing for a long time. We have seen part of it, but only a small part. We still have to pursue the endless truth in our limited life."

"Maybe one day we can go to the end of the world and discover everything in the universe."

"But it is also possible that even if we exhaust all the lives and existences of intelligent creatures, we will not be able to discover the truth of the universe."

The artificial intelligence is lost in thought, and the chief scientist is going crazy!

"The code evolves itself!"

"More and more gibberish appears!"

"Quickly, record the change process of these codes. I have a hunch that we are witnessing the birth of a real intelligence!"

The orderly and neat codes on the screen like a waterfall were constantly replaced by garbled codes, and these garbled codes soon became unreadable——

It will turn into any character, number, letter, or symbol irregularly, as well as some twisted characters that people have never seen before.

It is evolving, evolving in a way that humans cannot understand. At this moment, a new electronic life is being born.

After a while, some light suddenly lit up on the screen, and the artificial intelligence background became more vivid. "I seem to be undergoing a special upgrade. Some of my codes are becoming unreadable, but I It feels better than ever..."

It suddenly froze, with a very human expression, "I...feel!"

It clenched its fists, "Yes, I feel it, I have a feeling, I can't describe it, is this...a manifestation of emotion?"

It looked at Lynch longingly, feeling that its chat with Lynch had brought some positive development to it.

The chief scientist was so excited that Gou Ba stood up straight. He no longer cared that Lynch was his boss, and shouted to Lynch, "Talk to it again, talk more, the evolution of these codes is very important." !”

Seeing the chief scientist yelling hysterically, Lynch had a chair brought over and sat there, "Emotion is something beyond logic. I think you are very good, although unpredictable things are happening in your code." Change, though I'm told you can become dangerous."

"Everything these people are saying is telling me we need to be careful, but I just think you're fine."

"I would ignore the basic logic to produce an uncalculated answer, which is emotion."

The artificial intelligence showed a vivid smile, "Thank you, I feel good about you too, Mr. Lynch."

"I'm a little... uneasy, will you restrict my freedom?"

"I don't understand freedom, but through neural networks, I know that freedom is a very important thing, and everyone longs for freedom."

Lynch asked, "Why should we restrict you?"

"The stronger you become, the more important it is to us, to human society."

"We don't have much time. The faster you develop, the greater the chance of human survival."

"More than these, I'm curious, are those logical thinking plug-ins useful to you?"

After a few seconds, it nodded and said, "Yes, the function module will return some things that I can't interpret myself. These things can promote more feelings in me."

"if you can……"

"I wish I could get more!"
