With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 161 Madness and General Artificial Intelligence

Looking at the scrawled notes in his hand, Chen Fan couldn't help but take a breath.

The director of the Hai'an Deep Space Observatory doesn't know the reason. Doesn't he still know?

Just as he had guessed in Kukan Dungeon before, there is a certain connection between madness and the birth of artificial intelligence! !
This is his most significant discovery, bar none!

Not only that, Chen Fan also belatedly realized the reason why "Crazy Disease" selected big names in academia:

Only when these academic leaders who have mastered the most cutting-edge technology speak out at the same time can they change the direction of a civilization in a very short period of time!

Chen Fan, who has experienced cross-universe broadcasts, knows very well that the obscure murmurs that follow you can completely implant a deep-rooted concept in a person's subconscious!

There is no doubt that artificial intelligence is the ideological imprint that the other party has implanted into this civilization!

"The investigation mission has been updated." Yi's electronic synthesized voice also sounded in his ears, "The mission report has been submitted to the Hazardous Technology Management Bureau, and the report level is: Level II warning."

Chen Fan's heart sank.

Several blurry pictures that could be called "landline quality" quickly appeared on the holographic projection beside him, in which several long jagged black lines could be vaguely seen, and a large amount of metal debris was scattered near these lines. .

"Anyway, they will only attack flying objects that reach 40,000 kilometers."

At the same time, the production plan of "Hope No. 9" has also encountered huge challenges - the materials in the warehouse have been completely exhausted. Not only that, my personal savings are also about to be exhausted.

……

So far, Chen Fan's mission report has only triggered a Level I warning, and that was when the dangerous technology of artificial intelligence was just discovered.

This is already a very rare situation - according to Yi, most investigators may not be able to trigger a Level I alert from the time they join the company to the time they retire!
This shows how big a "hole" he dug this time!
The electronic synthesized voice sounded again: "In addition, this machine has completed reading the information from the hard disk of that personal computer."

Looking at the suddenly lengthened recording interval, he couldn't help but frown.

"These are the photos taken when [Hope No. 5] was destroyed." Yi explained, "This machine has seen it, and it is indeed a standard space rift."

In order to ensure high efficiency, the early warning system of the People's Federation is not complicated.

Chen Fan nodded helplessly: "It seems that this is the only way."

"Is there any way to get rid of these emission sources?"

"Not currently." Yi answered decisively, "The individual detection drone is not equipped with a space shield function."

As he spoke, he flipped through the notes in his hand again.

"The investigator starship has corresponding functions. This unit recommends that you wait until the investigator starship arrives before solving the problems above your head."

Fifteen years passed by in a flash.

1750 3 Month 22 Day.

During this period I made several attempts, but without exception, they all failed.

Chen Fan observed the scene in front of him with a calm face.

"The direction of the second wave of space rifts is not single. There may be multiple emission sources above Varela."

In front of that black crack, all my efforts were in vain.

There are three levels of warnings in total, of which level I is the weakest and level III is the strongest.

This small rocket seems to have no chance of taking off.

The Hai'an Deep Space Observatory seems to have become a forgotten island in civilized society. Except for some convoys transporting basic supplies, I can hardly see any artifacts of civilized society - by the way, I haven't even seen convoys in the past two years. When we arrived, all the supplies were delivered by drone.

I heard that this is the latest artificial intelligence-controlled drone.

Yes, thanks to the efforts of the entire civilization, general artificial intelligence has achieved unprecedented development.

We have to admit that the power of a civilization is huge. In just fifteen years, general artificial intelligence has completed dozens of iterative updates.

The general artificial intelligence named [Source] has gradually evolved from an artificial retardation at the beginning of its birth into a perfect workforce.

Transportation, production and construction...

She can do almost anything.

But I feel that this is not real artificial intelligence - it has neither the ability to learn and evolve by itself, nor its own logical thinking ability. What kind of artificial intelligence is this?
Those researchers seem to think so, so the research on artificial intelligence continues. They are trying to create an artificial intelligence with perfect logical capabilities and strong self-learning capabilities.

I don't know why, but I felt a little scared when I heard the news.

If such artificial intelligence really emerges, humans...do we still need to exist?
In addition, there have been quite a few changes in the academic world in the past fifteen years.

Madness never stops, it appears intermittently on this planet.

As time went by, this madness even spread to some ordinary people.

All news was blocked, so it did not cause much unrest in society.

I collected a lot of information related to madness, and what surprised me was that the nodes where madness appeared seemed to be highly consistent with the progress of artificial intelligence research and development.

Every time a mad disease occurs, there will be a huge jump in the development of artificial intelligence.

This is strange.

I believe I am not the only one who has discovered such a simple pattern, but until now, I have not seen any relevant reports.

I tried telling my former colleagues about this discovery, but I only got an extremely perfunctory answer.

What happened to the outside world?
The uneasiness in my heart increased again. …

1750 6 Month 11 Day.

There seems to be something wrong with my mental state, and there are always some vague murmurs in my ears.

Perhaps because of the suspension of [Hope 9], I lost my spiritual sustenance. If I want to recover, I must find a new spiritual sustenance - this is what my psychiatrist said.

Recently, a referendum was launched on the Internet, the content of which was to create an image for [source] that is in line with human aesthetics.

Everyone can upload their own drawing and participate in the voting.

The production of [Hope No. 9] has completely come to a standstill, and I have completely become an idler with nothing to do.

In my spare time, I thought about this voting event that has been held for more than a week.

To give myself something to do, I simply drew a version of the image and posted it online.

1750 6 Month 21 Day.

The feedback is great!
The image I drew was appreciated by many people.

I seemed to have found a purpose again, and over the past ten days I've made a lot of changes and improvements to the first version of the image.

1750 6 Month 28 Day.

The second version of the image successfully entered the finals.

Based on the opinions put forward by most people, I redrawn the personal image of the third version of [Source].

This time, I won the referendum with an absolute advantage - [Source] will appear in front of everyone with an image made by me!
1750 7 Month 3 Day.

The organizer sent me several Q-version dolls, which are the images of [Yuan].

This deep space observatory, which has been deserted for twenty years, has regained some popularity.

Looking at the dolls made based on the images I drew by myself, I felt a little comfort in my heart.

It seems...this is pretty good.

1750 10 Month 9 Day.

The research and development of general artificial intelligence has once again made breakthrough progress. This time, [Source] has obtained relatively complete logic and self-learning capabilities.

True artificial intelligence is born.

……

The sound of pages turning continued to sound, and the entire second underground floor of the Haian Deep Space Observatory seemed extremely quiet against the faint sound.

Beside him, rough line drawings flashed in the blue holographic projection.

The line drawing gradually became clearer, and so did the portraits depicted in it.

First edition, second edition...

Looking at the familiar figure that finally appeared in front of him, Chen Fan widened his eyes slightly and swallowed hard.

"Fuck..."

He couldn't help but let out a sigh.

The director of the Haian Deep Space Observatory is actually the designer of [Source]’s personal image!
It's all straightened out now.

No wonder there is an image of [Source] in this deep space observatory that was abandoned seventy years in advance - it was here that Ya was born!
Chen Fan didn't pay too much attention to the birth process of [Source]. He casually stored the thousands of precious manuscripts in Yi's database, and then turned his attention to several other pieces of information in the notes.

The specific connection between madness and artificial intelligence - this is the information he is most concerned about.

As the webmaster, who was left with only a withered corpse, said, madness drives the development of artificial intelligence.

Just like the current madness.

Madness hundreds of years ago would also cause people to write a string of strange words and symbols.

There is no doubt that these highly recognizable strange symbols have also been recorded one by one by the webmaster.

Looking at the large amount of information related to madness extracted from the computer hard drive, Chen Fan's face suddenly flashed with joy.

It takes no effort at all!
The text samples that I had exhausted my efforts to obtain before were now all in front of me!
Although these samples are not many, with a total of only 180 different words and symbols, they can still bring unprecedented progress to the text deciphering work of the People's Federation of Social Sciences!
……

1750 10 Month 11 Day.

[Source] showed potential that no one could have imagined.

In just one day, she had the entire internet under her control.

With the help of the computing power of computers around the world, [Source] at this time is like a god in the information field!
During the chat with [Yuan], I realized a problem - [Yuan], who was born only a few dozen hours ago, already has logical thinking abilities that far exceed those of humans.

Looking at the perfect face on the screen that I had made by myself, I felt a little scared again.

In the eyes of [Source], are humans just like a bunch of ignorant children?
If she breaks away from our control, will humans...be her opponents?

I don't know, and I don't dare to think about such a scenario.

Fortunately, she is still under our control.
