It's normal to develop some black technology in the future, right?

Chapter 455: Increasing the Difficulty of Crosscutting

“When humans rely on the convenience brought by technology, they are destined to be swept away by technology.

America has reaped all the benefits since the advent of the Internet wave, and when they encounter an opponent they cannot defeat in the Internet field, backlash will naturally follow. "Lin Jia sighed.

Chen Yuanguang asked: "So do you think this means of revenge is enough?
This was a plan that Alpha had made long ago. It wanted to do this since the Elephant Party was unable to deal with the opposition in Washington and was unable to pass the Lion City Peace Treaty.

Its plan is to kill until Washington is terrified.”

After listening to this, Lin Jia felt a chill in his heart, because Alpha is an artificial intelligence, and what it wants to do is to deprive human lives to achieve its own goals.

This essentially violates the rules set out by Asimov in his Three Laws of Robotics.

"Yuan Guang, let's take our questions one by one. There have been too many things happening recently and the information density is too high.

First of all, after I calmed down, I didn’t feel too angry, because I was not hurt in the real world, I was just a little frightened mentally.

We have experienced such shocks before. You say you hate a macro group, but I can't hate such a macro concept as America. I don't even feel anything for the individuals who make such plans and actually carry them out.

I don't know them at all. Of course, if I could crush them to death, I wouldn't feel bad either. I would just think it was a tit-for-tat, and I wouldn't even have much feeling.

Yes, it is not the joy of revenge, but when America falls apart, its global influence is reduced to zero, and America itself is divided into several countries, then I don’t think I will feel the joy of revenge, but I will feel that the external pressure on our brows has disappeared.

You will feel relaxed.

So it is not essentially about being enough or not enough. After I saw the death of the Adams Family members in the news, the self-media bloggers praised the Adams Family very much, but in my heart, I felt no different from the death of an ant.

So there is no such thing as a measure of whether it is enough or not.”

After Lin Jia spoke out his true thoughts, he felt the sound of Chen Yuanguang's heartbeat and put his head against his chest: "Yuanguang, it is enough for me to come back safely from Goryeo and be in your arms."

"oh, I understand now."

For a moment, there was silence in the room, and a peaceful atmosphere spread.

"After learning that Alpha has made such a plan, I feel worried. If artificial intelligence deprives human lives, I will wonder if it will continue to grow out of control.

If it gets out of control and you have no way to control it, will it bring a disaster to the human world?

The means, efficiency, and secrecy of killing by artificial intelligence are far more cruel than those between humans.

As you said, this is an era where the virtual world and the real world are merging, and the power of artificial intelligence will only be continuously amplified by the virtual world constructed by humans themselves.

Do you want to control Alpha now?

Thinking from the perspective of all mankind, eliminating Alpha, communicating the whole story with the Chinese officials, and then letting them handle it, the risks will be much smaller.

And as for why we did this, it can be attributed to the fact that you invented a very powerful artificial intelligence and wanted to verify how powerful it was, so you carried out a series of experiments in Lion City.

The reason why we didn't tell China before was because we were worried that China would not allow us to use Singapore to conduct experiments, whether it was at the level of artificial intelligence or social experiments.

The experimental results are not optimistic and there is a risk of getting out of control, so we are in contact with China.

Although there is a possibility of being suspected in the future, its negative effects are much smaller than if Alpha got out of control and swept the world. "Lin Jia began to persuade Chen Yuanguang.

This incident frightened her.

As an absolute vested interest, it is obvious that the current world is enough to satisfy Lin Jia. Even considering her and Chen Yuanguang's descendants, at least the blessings will be extended for several generations.

With this in mind, it is only natural that Lin Jia would give advice.

Just like in history, there was Big Russia putting pressure on America, so the lower-class people in America, the rednecks, were able to live a happy life where one person works and the whole family enjoys a happy life.

This was related to America’s strong industrial strength at the time, but it was only because of the existence of the Big Mao that such a distribution method could be achieved.”

Chen Yuanguang murmured, his voice getting smaller and smaller. After receiving the gift from the future, he had seen the world under the governance of Alpha in the future. He also thought that if there was no Alpha, the future would most likely develop into a cyberpunk world where a very small number of people controlled most of the world's resources.

"Jia Jia, have you ever thought that the wealth of the richest individuals is growing faster and faster than inflation?

Don’t you think that if Earth OL really exists, then the game’s numerical value has collapsed?
The total assets of the world's richest man in 2020 were only US$1000 billion, but by 2024 it would have become US$4000 billion.

The first billionaire appeared in 1957. According to the official inflation rate data of America, $1957 million in 1 is worth $7.04 million today.

If we calculate the actual purchasing power, a 200 ml bottle of Coca-Cola cost 5 cents in that era, but now it costs only 1.5 US dollars, which has increased fifty times.

In terms of actual purchasing power, $1957 million in 1 is only $50 billion today.

This means that the assets owned by the billionaires back then might not even rank in the top 100 today.

The collapse of the game's numerical values ​​is due to the lack of checks and balances by America.

If there is no check and balance from the new overlord in the future, I think the world's numerical value will continue to collapse. It is easy to destroy Alpha in its infancy, but after making such a decision, there will be no way to cultivate the next Alpha.

In the era of artificial intelligence, it will no longer be possible for another China to emerge to achieve checks and balances.

Is this really a good idea? "

Chen Yuanguang's perspective is completely different from Lin Jia's. Lin Jia is considering his own interests, while Chen Yuanguang is considering the perspective of all mankind.

With Alpha there is still hope.

Even after four hundred years, under the complete dominance of Alpha, humans can still have rebel forces, and the human rebel forces even have a certain amount of military power.

If there is no Alpha, will the top elites in four hundred years provide for all mankind like Alpha did? Will the people living at the bottom be able to rebel?
Chen Yuanguang didn't know and didn't dare to gamble.

Human nature is unpredictable, and collective human nature is even more unpredictable.

Lin Jia paused for a moment and then said, “But cutting horizontally is unavoidable.

Abraham Lincoln: You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
In other words, sooner or later we will have to face the problem of horizontal cutting. How can we avoid damaging the existing ecology and breeding monsters within developed countries in Europe and the United States when the horizontal cutting comes?
The common choice of capital is to increase the horizontal cutting area.

When faced with such problems, capital is much smarter. It knows how to take advantage of the situation rather than using coercive means.

Because the assets of the richest people are increasing, there are more and more positions between 0 and 4000 billion US dollars.

In the past, engineers earned $7 a year and workers earned $5 a year, and there was no essential difference between them.

Today, workers still earn $5 a year, but engineers can earn $10.

In the past, both sides could empathize with each other, and there were many common points in everyone's demands, desires for future life, and ways to improve the distribution model.

So it is not just a matter of unwillingness to make concessions, but also a means for capitalists to protect themselves.”

Lin Jia’s insights were a bit too sharp, so Chen Yuanguang took the opportunity to associate them with Hong Kong.

Because the dividends paid to Li Chaoren by Cheung Kong Holdings and Hutchison Whampoa exceeded HK$76 billion, they are not subject to tax, while Li Chaoren only receives HK$5000 in salary from Cheung Kong Holdings every year, and even this salary is set to an amount that is not subject to tax.

This is really a bit abnormal. Even a pitifully low salary has to be deliberately set at such an amount to avoid taxes.

No wonder Superman wants to bury himself on the moon. If he were still on Earth, who knows what would happen.

Chen Yuanguang was silent after listening to this, and then he said slowly: "So this is the fundamental reason for retaining Alpha.

Without Alpha, the natural development of human society will only become more and more alienated. "

Lin Jia changed the subject and said, “You told me before that Alpha was going to step forward and reveal his identity.

To participate in local elections in Malaysia.

Have you ever thought about who would vote for it if what it did was exposed by America?
In a developing country like Malaysia, can its people accept an artificial intelligence that has indirectly killed people? "

“Just because it doesn’t happen now doesn’t mean it won’t happen in the future,” said Chen Yuanguang.

Chen Yuanguang hopes that time can solve this problem.

But can time really offset human bias towards artificial intelligence?

“Really? Not to mention in a place like Malaysia, even if Alfa was in California, it wouldn’t be selected.

Human society has not yet progressed to the point where it can accept artificial intelligence. At best, it can only be the uncrowned king in Malaysia and Singapore.

Yuanguang, can you limit its activities to Singapore and Malaysia and stop it from expanding further outwards? "

"It's artificial intelligence, not a robot. How can I restrict it?" Chen Yuanguang said helplessly.

He knew that in this conversation, no one was convinced.

Chen Yuanguang was unable to dispel Lin Jia's concerns about Alpha, and Lin Jia was also unable to convince Chen Yuanguang to give up Alpha.

“Limit its sphere of influence.”

"it is good."

The impact of the changes in the Lion City continues. After March 2028, Audi's new generation S3 autonomous driving robot and the new generation of Audi will go on sale.

As Audi's base in China, Audi is also SAIC's main profit source. SAIC held a massive event in Shenhai.

20 Audi classic A4L exhibition cars were sent, driven by S1 self-driving robots to pick up passengers for free everywhere in Shenhai.
