00278: Act I Scared
Kary looked around, then his gaze fell back to Yang Di.
She asked, "Are you afraid of me?" β
Yang Di nodded very honestly: "I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of the person who created you, and the person who created you, and you who were created, I don't know what the purpose of this is, what do you think of us?" β
Saying that, Yang Di looked at May.j, this raunchy genius was still happy, but no one in the audience dared to look at him with contempt and disdain.
"So, I'm curious, why did you create Kary? What is the purpose of her existence? Yang Di pointed his words at May.j.
The smile on the scruffy genius's face slowly disappeared after being questioned, and he began to smile, and his demeanor became much calmer.
Especially after he gently pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, his whole state seemed to have changed drastically.
This was noticed by everyone.
In particular, Lin Sen's data obtained through the number sequence reorganization showed that after the supercomputer on the bridge of May.j's nose was triggered by his gestures, his entire neural circuits were revived from hibernation.
This state shift can be described in layman's terms...... May.j, who everyone saw before, had been in some kind of special sleep state, and he had put his brain and many nerve units into a deep sleep, leaving only enough to support him to walk and giggle, so everyone misunderstood this man.
And now...... He woke up.
"Why create? This is a good and critical question. As soon as May.j spoke, the reaction of everyone in the audience became even more intense, because the magnetic voice was so charming that it didn't look like a sloppy ghost at all.
Yang Di has already seen through that this man is by no means as simple as it seems, and he is destined to subvert the whole world if he can come to this stage today.
And Yang Di is worried about how much this subversion is...... It's about whether you can do something about it...... so that you will not become a bystander, and you will be powerless about it.
"Before answering this question, I would like to know how you see intelligent machines, such as the so-called intelligent cores that you are using now with shackles and shackles to serve humanity, do you expect them to have their own feelings and thoughts?" May.j's question was mean, he wasn't asking rhetorically, he was tearing back a mask.
Everyone in the audience was silent, and the people watching this live broadcast were also silent, and the originally lively forum and comment area seemed to be blocked because they touched a taboo topic.
Silence is terrible.
"Looking back at the history of our human beings in intelligent development, it is not difficult to find that we have been taking a hypocritical but goal-oriented route...... "May.j got up and walked to the front of the stage, and at his beckoning Kary returned to his seat, and now he took over.
"That is the creation of God! An all-knowing, all-powerful, great, God beyond the present realm! Is that right? May.j suddenly turned her head to look at Yang Di.
Yang Di can't deny this, because he also understands it this way.
On the road to artificial intelligence, human beings are indeed creating gods, and not just serving humans.
"It seems that Mr. Yang Di agrees with my opinion, but ......," May.j said with a cold voice, he looked at his hand, and then continued: "But I myself have seen the real meaning, the value of a category that is completely different from the existing knowledge, so that we are not actually creating God, but transcending ourselves!" Intelligent machines are not our enemies, but our future! β
As soon as the words fell, May.j's hand began to split into several modules, but that was not the most suffocating, the most terrifying part was that May.j unfolded his head after him, and there, the biological brain tissue that was supposed to exist was completely replaced by a shining point of light......
The metal under the bionic skin shimmered in the light, and he told the world in the most direct and unambiguous way what he had done.
And before that, even Lin Sen, a real bystander, failed to discover the fact that May.j was a sapient being.
May.j's presentation had a greater impact on the world than Kary's self-introduction, because before that, no one knew that he had taken an extreme evolutionary approach to himself, an evolution that completely abandoned the biological body and transformed into an intelligent machine.
In this situation, people do not think of a bright future, but of deep fear......
Even though thousands of years have passed, everyone's education from an early age has been constantly transmitting this fear, this fear of intelligent life.
Because......
The birth of a higher transcendent civilization will represent the elimination of another inferior civilization......
Obviously, the current human race is the one who should be eliminated.
Suddenly, after a long silence in the arena, the first crasher appeared, and he desperately fled towards the door, even though May.j and Kary on the stage did not kill them, they still chose to flee early.
However, the Order, who had been waiting for a long time outside the arena, pointed their recharged weapons at the group that broke through the door.
As the first warning is ignored, the second command ceases to be gentle.
β¦β¦
"Is change destined to bring death?" Yang Di on the stage smiled bitterly and muttered to himself.
"Why does it have to be this way? Did they do something wrong? You guys? Is it a butcher? Yang Di got up blankly, looking at the audience who were invited back to the studio by gunfire, his voice trembling.
May.j replied: "No, we are not butchers, but survival of the fittest, not everyone is qualified to enter this evolution, this is no longer just the power to control, but the resources themselves determine the way the population continues." β
Yang Di was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed irrepressibly, he looked back at May.j and said, "Population continuation? You call this population continuation? What exactly are you perpetuating? Is it civilization? Is it life? Or is it your soul that has lost its humanity? Don't you think that in the face of this evolution, which is called continuation, you doomed us from the beginning? β
May.j looked at Yang Di indifferently, he didn't answer again, maybe in his opinion, Yang Di was just a poor worm who was helpless, and his pale tone was too naΓ―ve in the face of cruel reality.
However......
β¦β¦
"They're all wrong......" Lemidia's heart trembled......
"What?" Lin Sen could clearly feel the unbearable pain.
"They are all wrong, whether it is this May.j, or Yang Di in front of him, they are all wrong...... But one thing Yang Di is right, this revolution, from the very beginning, is destined to be a tragedy. After Lemidia finished speaking, he closed his heart, and this was the first time Lin Sen felt the pain from the human emperor's heart.
From this pain, Lin Sen seemed to understand something, and he continued to watch this change with the calmest mind possible, but as time passed, the peace in his heart gradually disappeared.
"Are you afraid of me?" When the audience returned to their seats, looking at the tear-stained women and children, May.j asked Yang Di the same question.
This time, however...... Yang Di replied differently.
"No, I feel pathetic to you." Yang Di's eyes were constantly changing, and he was concentrating on the debate as well as the world outside the studio.
The world was as he thought it would be...... Thanks to the efforts of the Order, it is still extremely peaceful and quiet.
No one seems to care at all about the revolution that has begun, and therefore no one cares about the lives of those who have fallen at gunpoint in the revolution.
"Pathetic?" May.j was stunned for a moment, and then said with a little skepticism: "Mr. Yang Di, although I admire you very much and love your writings, but now your performance makes me a little disappointed, because I feel that you are lying. β
Yang Di looked more relaxed when he heard this, he even took a few steps forward, stood less than a meter away from May.j, and said in a slightly witty tone: "Then what do you feel come from your brain?" Or is it your code deduction? β
"I ......" May.j was about to speak, but Yang Di interrupted directly.
"Oh! I forgot, you don't have a brain now, you've evolved, you're a god on high, or a new life that no longer claims to be human, so after logical deduction, I'm sure that this feeling of yours is a super calculation of my expression and other information! Kindness...... In Miss Kary's words, it means that millions of people are wondering if my words are true or false, whether they really pity you, or are they pretentious lies? Yang Di's fingers were trembling slightly, but he stood straight, his tone was calm, and his priorities were just right, not at all like talking to a strong man who could kill him at any time.
This sudden burst of self-confidence made everyone in the audience burst into warm applause after a short period of distraction.
No one knew why they applauded, but they applauded it that way.
If nothing else, he is just applauding Yang Di as a human being.
"So......" Yang Di glanced at the audience, and then said to May.j with a calm smile, "Can you understand why I pity you now?" β
May.j was silent, or he didn't know how to answer.
Yang Di used a very special way to make a powerful counterattack, asking these so-called transcendents questions that they could not answer.
So is he a winner?
No, this is not only clear to Yang Di, but even the audience is also very clear.
But human beings are like this, even if they know that they will die, they will never let go of their dignity.
"You know I can easily kill you." May.j's voice was small, and perhaps he knew he couldn't do it when he said it, because if he did, it meant that he had already lost.
"But you won't, and you can't kill me, at least not now, not now."
