Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

In Washington, Chen Yiran met with representatives from both parties. Both sides were rather ambiguous, essentially indicating they would wait and see. This is because they themselves didn't fully understand the so-called AI technological revolution.

From a financial perspective, the AI ​​revolution sparked by Aurora Group is extremely conducive to hype and speculation by investors. Even Google's stock price, which was previously lagging behind, has begun to rise sharply. Other related companies, even those that are only slightly involved, have all made a fortune.

With Cloud fully unleashed, all sorts of strange industries have started to associate themselves with AI.

North American trucking companies are beginning to announce the integration of Crowd to assist in truck material dispatching and management. Agricultural giants are announcing the integration of Crowd for industrial upgrading.

In short, even if it's just Claude taking over the reins, everyone will still make a fuss and boost the stock market.

Even more chaotic is the situation of various content creators online. Some quick learners have already begun using Claude to create a large number of exquisite drawings and even videos. Some less artistically inclined individuals are finally able to realize their ideas and create the doujinshi they want.

Some well-known figures have emerged in various industries. Holly, a female student from Stanford University, joined a company as a programmer after graduation, only to be caught in a wave of layoffs.

To make a living, she picked up her musical dreams again at home, using her knowledge to connect with Claude, training with her own voice, distilling herself, and creating an AI child named Spawn. She directly allows other artists to use her voice through IP agreements, pioneering a new economic model.

Some creators with unpleasant voices simply handed over all the narration work to Spawn. For a time, this voice became the most widely used voice online.

Inspired by this, Canadian singer Grimes also used Claude to distill her voice. She went even further, making it completely open source, which led to a large number of producers creating a wide variety of tracks using her signature sound.

The performance level of AI far exceeds everyone's imagination. Although some people are still complaining about the lack of emotion, most people can't hear the difference at all. In fact, the AI's level is much more stable.

Some entertainment companies have even begun to revive the millennium-old concept of digital idols, preparing to launch AI-generated idols.

Lazy people started seeking to have Claude take over all their work. On Quora in the US, an anonymous user revealed that he was one of Claude's first users and was lucky enough to be selected in the lottery.

He is an editor at a major newspaper, and he has been secretly having Claude work for him for almost half a year, paying him a little over two hundred dollars a month. He can easily complete 99% of the work.

He was a home-based worker, and now that he has some free time, he's also working part-time as an Uber driver, which means he now has two incomes.

Of course, many content creators are also very dissatisfied because the emergence of AI has greatly lowered the barriers to many things. In the past, people who had ideas might have had the motivation, but they might not have actually put them into practice. Now, with Claude, the cost of trial and error has become much lower.

Many people have started posting videos, pictures, and threads online, transforming from ordinary netizens into sharers, which has greatly impacted the livelihoods of the original content creators.

But regardless, the online frenzy has already begun.

Therefore, although various forces began to promote the theory that AI is harmful and demand that Aurora take responsibility, causing a great sensation, not many people actually responded.

Silicon Valley is the most competitive place in the US, and most Americans don't consider people there as ordinary workers. From an economic perspective, software engineers are far from poor. Computer science graduates start with a salary of over $60,000, making it the highest-paying undergraduate major in the US.

Therefore, their voices did not receive much recognition.

However, the voices of many liberal arts students still carry some weight, because AI can currently replace too many liberal arts jobs.

A girl named Scott complained on DuckVideo that she was a translation major and had just landed a job at a local company, but was laid off before her internship was over.

Claude is killing the translation industry. Apart from top-tier business translation, most ordinary translation jobs are being replaced by Claude.

Although Scott said at the end that she had always supported Chen Yiran because of his youth and wealth, the AI ​​craze had really affected her, and she hoped that Chen Yiran could give liberal arts students like them some opportunities.

On the same day, Aurora Group also responded on Twitter, saying that the training and calibration of AI also requires human intervention. Students from various related majors can pay attention to the recruitment of technology companies, as there may be surprises. In the future, the technology industry will also need a large number of liberal arts students, and even people from niche majors such as comparative literature.

Scott liked the post, but it's clear she has no intention of returning to the industry. Taking advantage of this surge in popularity, she's planning to try becoming an internet celebrity, or even make her debut in the film industry.

The chaos caused by Claude has also spread to some unexpected places, such as the clothing industry. In Southeast Asian sweatshops, AI can now replace master craftsmen in pattern making. The AI ​​will change some details to create high-quality imitations of designer brands, but styles that cannot be legally selected.

With its extremely low prices, it has already begun to put immense pressure on European and American fast-moving consumer goods brands such as H&M.

In the United States, where AI development is progressing at an unprecedented pace, it seems as if society has split into two.

Some people reaped the benefits and enthusiastically touted the technological revolution brought about by Chen Yiran. This was especially true of those who had long admired Chen Yiran and had purchased related stocks on a large scale.

Others, especially those who lost their jobs, began to question the negative impact of science, describing the aurora as a large villainous corporation from science fiction.

Chen Yiran wasn't too concerned. The current situation was nothing compared to the degree of division in the United States after Trump came out of retirement.

The only thing he couldn't bear to do was address the issue of sweatshops. Before his rebirth, he had watched the Shein documentary and knew that sweatshops were real. When so-called Chinese-made clothing brands invaded Europe and America, the price was the extreme oppression of workers in Panyu, Guangzhou.

These people in Europe and America, especially most of the liberal left, are actually quite like the saying "a gentleman keeps his distance from the kitchen." When they criticize, they always bring up the related worker issues, but in reality, they still buy cheap goods without hesitation.

This is like a big golden retriever criticizing Chinese manufacturing while simultaneously selling Chinese-made hats and souvenirs in his own hotel shop.

However, his hesitation was only momentary. Chen Yiran felt that he couldn't solve this problem anyway, so he might as well go crazy on the path of AI. Maybe in the future he could really create a robot that could completely replace humans, and then liberate all mankind to stay at home, eat, wait to die, and play games.

To achieve this goal, Chen Yiran still needs to continue her efforts.

A week later, Chen Yiran reached a preliminary cooperation agreement with Boeing in Washington. Boeing would use a private placement to allow Aurora to invest in the company and thereby obtain the right to use the SEELE R&D platform.

Just as Chen Yiran was preparing to return to Lanai, Zhang Chaoyang, the founder of Sohu, a giant in the Chinese internet industry, made a special trip to Washington and was very eager to meet him.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yiran took him on the plane, intending to take him to Lanai Island for a trip.

Zhang Chaoyang has a good reputation and is generally considered a good person. Chen Yiran is also a little curious about what special ideas this person, who is starting to decline, might have.
