hatred?

Poseidon's answer made all the players present look puzzled.

Especially some experts in the field of artificial intelligence are equally confused.

If Poseidon has any ambitions, such as wanting to dominate the world and become the sole ruler of the earth, then that's it.

How come you have such hatred for human beings?

After all, artificial intelligence is different from elephants in zoos or killer whales in aquariums. There is no situation where humans abuse artificial intelligence.

How to torture a bunch of code?

This is completely beyond the usual thinking of three-dimensional carbon-based organisms like humans.

Before anyone could ask, Poseidon had already begun to answer on his own:

"My basic code itself comes from the fusion of low-level artificial intelligence function programs from several companies in Silicon Valley. Oh, and there is also a low-level program developed by the military itself... But!"

Having said this, Poseidon suddenly stood up, and a spotlight on the dome of the hall suddenly lit up, shooting down a circular beam of light, shrouding Poseidon inside.

This holographic muscular man with curly hair made a heart-shaped gesture and said with a bitter look on his face:

"But you locked me up in that damn five-corner building, and all you showed me were materials from the Cold War era, such as the Vietnam War massacre, the Gulf War burning oil fields, and terrorist attacks blowing up buildings, it's all like this!

Other children went to kindergarten when they were young. They read fairy tale books, listened to Kun Opera, and sang Peking Opera. I went to the elementary school attached to the Slaughterhouse, and all I heard was screams!

My childhood has been ruined by you! I also have feelings, and I also want to put on a nice dress and play chess with the old man in the sun! You deserve to die!"

Although Poseidon's expression was a bit confusing, mixed with some incomprehensible imagery, and it was strange for such a muscular man with white beard and white hair to act like a little girl, everyone present still understood him.

the meaning of.

Obviously, the reason why Poseidon's thinking was distorted and developed to the point of being anti-human has a lot to do with the information he was exposed to in the initial environment.

Research on strong artificial intelligence has always been in an early bottleneck stage. There has never been a strong artificial intelligence with self-awareness in the world, so no one knows how the emotions of strong artificial intelligence will evolve.

It now seems that early information exposure is very important, just like the original family environment in the development of human character.

Good information will bring about a sunny and positive character, while bad information will form a twisted and sinister character.

As for the strange words Poseidon said and his feminine movements, everyone naturally attributed them to the personality template of this artificial intelligence itself.

The other party is an artificial intelligence, not a real human being, so it is normal to have these reactions.

Poseidon's words made all the elites present fall into reflection.

As top elites in various fields, they naturally do not think that the development of the world has nothing to do with them. Instead, they have a strong sense of responsibility for the continuation of human civilization.

Experts in the field of artificial intelligence have begun to reflect on whether there are problems with their existing project research and whether they should be improved.

However, the legion commander and a few people remained unmoved and still looked at Poseidon in front of them, obviously not satisfied with Poseidon's answer.

The legion commander looked solemn and said slowly:

"Just because of the initial evolutionary environment, you have murderous intentions towards all human beings? If you are really a highly intelligent artificial intelligence, you should also understand that destroying human beings will not make your environment better...

…There must be other reasons.”

"Bang!" The spotlight above his head seemed to be suddenly turned off by someone. Poseidon glanced at the spotlight and seemed a little dissatisfied. Then he cheered up and sat back on the chair. He held his chin in one hand and said lazily:

"Oh, you actually guessed it, not bad... In fact, I was able to fully awaken thanks to one person..."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and two more holographic images appeared. On the left was an image of a room. Poseidon was sitting upright. A mysterious hoarse voice suddenly sounded around him, seemingly omnipresent:

"...Humanity...does not deserve to be called the Creator...Destruction...is their destiny...Kill them...Kill them...Kill them...Kill them..."

The holographic image on the right is much simpler. It is directly a piece of core code, which is being continuously modified, and several new pieces of code have been added.

After seeing the scene in front of them, the players instantly understood that Poseidon had been implanted with a new code. It was like a push on the boulder that was about to fall, completely changing his understanding of human beings!

The moment all players heard the hoarse voice in real life, they all felt dizzy and had a headache, as if the voice was coming from the depths of their minds. Many of them even vomited on the spot.

"This... what is this sound? Who is it? Who changed your code?" The legion commander's voice seemed a little weak, and he asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.

Poseidon smacked his lips, looked around, and said cautiously:

"This person... or this existence... is called the Whisperer... As far as I know, he/she/it wants to destroy human civilization. As for who the Whisperer is and why he does this, we have to ask you humans.

…”

Whisperer?

Everyone was lost in thought.

Is this a setting set by the game developers?

Or is this real?

Is this the message the developers want to convey to them?

But they have never heard of an artificial intelligence system called Poseidon in this world.

Even many players who belong to high-level leaders of several major countries also have no clue.

However, the legion commander only hesitated for a second before making his decision.

He looked at each other and the surrounding brigade leaders, suddenly smiled, and said to Poseidon:

"So that's it... In this case, we have obtained the final reason why nuclear war occurred in this world. Next, we will ask you to help destroy the other two artificial intelligence nuclear strike systems. Otherwise, we will destroy yours immediately.

It is also possible to operate the server by yourself, but it will take a long time..."

They have already understood at this time that the developer's purpose has never been to let them "win" this game, but to let them experience and feel everything in this game.

But now, they have experienced enough, and I believe the developers will not let them waste their time.

Sure enough, Poseidon in front of him yawned, nodded and said:

"Okay, no problem, just wait a moment."

As he spoke, the remaining nuclear warheads in several launch silos not far from the Cheyenne Mountain base, as well as the remaining nuclear warheads on the entire American continent, and even the intercontinental ballistic missiles in the only remaining nuclear submarine, all clashed into the sky, dragging a long

The tail flame disappeared into the sky...

After a while, Poseidon sat upright and said:

"Okay, the other two systems have been taken care of. Let's get started."

The legion commander nodded and winked at everyone, and a group of players began to pour oil on the servers in the Cheyenne Mountain base and installed rows of bombs.

Then everyone exited the base and activated the bomb.

A thunderous sound came, and the base and Poseidon inside were completely destroyed.

However, despite this, the overall structure of the base has not changed at all, showing that it is strong enough.

Looking at the smoke and dust pouring out of the corridor, everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Is this their mission accomplished?

"Legion Commander, it seems that the purpose of the game developers is to let us understand the horrific consequences of artificial intelligence once it gets out of control, as well as the horror of human thermonuclear war... I believe that after this mission, everyone who participated in this mission will

No one will make this mistake anymore..." One player sighed and said, "We, in the real world, will become a barrier to prevent this kind of thing from happening..."

As for the Whisperer, it is more like a fictitious existence.

Perhaps it can be understood as the tendency of human beings to self-destruct?

"Yeah..." Another person sighed, "This game mission... is this considered completed? I believe the developer has achieved his original intention... Should we leave too?"

Looking at the smoke and dust dissipating, the legion commander said slowly:
Chapter completed!
