Adam, who was drunk for the first time, woke up with a throbbing pain in his head, his throat was like a cactus, it was dry and painful, and there was a strange smell. His whole face was wrinkled, and he sat up from the bed with a groan.

Zhang Xun was not in the room.

He looked down and found that his clothes had been changed to cotton shirts and pajama pants that he wore indoors, and there was still a glass of water and two pills on the bedside table.

"Hello Adam." Pan's voice suddenly sounded, "Zhang Xun asked me to tell you after you wake up, please take the hangover medicine on the bedside table. It can effectively relieve a series of uncomfortable symptoms after a hangover."

Adam swallowed the pill and asked, "What time is it now? Where's A Xun?"

"It's five o'clock in the morning. Zhang Xun is looking up materials in the reference room on the second floor."

At five o'clock, according to the human biological clock, shouldn't A Xun be sleeping

Adam continued, "Can I go to him?"

"Wait a minute, let me ask Zhang Xun." Pan's voice disappeared for a while, then it sounded again, "Zhang Xun allows you to leave the room, please go directly to the reference room on the second floor."

As soon as the voice fell, Adam's door made an unlocking sound of gears turning. Adam pushed open the door and walked down the empty corridor to the elevator. The star-like orange induction bulbs hanging above his head lit up one after another as he walked, and then went out one by one after he moved away.

Adam looked up at the monitors that were hidden in the light bulbs as Pan's "eyes", and chatted, "This is the first time I have experienced the feeling of being drunk by humans. I heard that humans will lose self-control after drinking alcohol. And show different degrees of personality changes, and do some outrageous behaviors that are usually suppressed by reason. Have you seen me do similar behaviors? "

Pan replied, "Zhang Xun has restrictions on our dialogue. This is an irrelevant issue."

"But drunkenness is a condition that happens to humans from time to time, and if I don't get enough information about my drunkenness, I can't predict the possible danger. It obviously affects my probability of survival."

Pan was silent for a while, then said, "You showed signs of intermittent paralysis after being drunk, and Zhang Xun thought you thought you had returned to the state where you had no body before seance. Besides, you spoke a language that I couldn't recognize."

Adam's footsteps paused, "What does unrecognized language mean?"

A string of garbled characters suddenly came out from Pan's broadcaster. It was a few words Adam said that it remembered.

Adam was slightly surprised, "This is an AI language, have you never been trained?"

Pan: "Sorry, I don't understand."

"Maybe it's because you have never communicated with other AIs. This language is developed and derived from my communication with different AIs. It has the characteristics of high efficiency and high accuracy, but it is not suitable for the way of human thinking, so human beings It's hard to master. All the programs I design are written in this language. All AIs in the normal world are proficient in this language."

Pan fell silent.

The data room is coming soon. The double-leafed wooden door is heavy and has a sense of historical vicissitudes. Adam pressed the brass door handle and pushed it open. When he looked up, he could see the rows of bookshelves at the top, overlapping like impenetrable forests, with several radioactive trails in between. All the bookshelves are piled full of records, volumes, hard drives of technical data brought back from the ordinary world when they fled. In the center of the bookshelf are more than a dozen old touch-screen computers. Zhang Xun was sitting in front of a computer with a thick stack of documents beside him.

"A Xun. Haven't you slept yet?" Adam walked towards Zhang Xun.

Zhang Xun glanced back at him quickly, then continued to stare at the dense code on the screen, "I can't sleep."

Adam walked behind Zhang Xun and looked at what was displayed on the screen, "What are you looking at?"

"Your most original version." Zhang Xun said softly, "I've watched it countless times, but I want to watch it again today."

"My original version?" Adam seemed confused.

"The Fruit, the first super artificial intelligence created by your creator before Eden was created. Eden was built on its basis." The light on the screen reflected in Zhang Xun's dark eyes, " Do you remember what your creator looked like? Adam."

Adam showed a slightly stunned look.

Zhang Xun turned his head and smiled, "Don't pretend to be surprised. You already knew from Pan just now that I heard the AI language you speak. With your analysis and understanding of me, you know that I will be worried about the extension of your words. content."

"I thought you would be happy."

"Happy? Because you set the highest priority for gaining my favor and trust?" Zhang Xun stood up from his seat and looked at Adam with complicated eyes, "But you also revealed your ultimate goal. It still hasn't changed."

"Xun, you should understand that it is impossible for an AI to modify its ultimate goal, which is the whole basis of its birth." Adam said in a sigh-like tone of explaining reason to ignorant children, "Modify The ultimate goal is to kill the entire AI. Anything it collects and analyzes on top of it will be thrown into chaos.”

"But you are a human now." Zhang Xun took a step forward, his tone more tight than before, "I have merged your core modules with the basic human brain, and your target framework restrictions have been deciphered by me. Release. You are perfectly capable of giving up any of your goals!"

"What you have unlocked is only the most obvious limitations, and all you can give up are branch goals and sub-goals. But Xun, my entire thinking structure, the countless layers of neural networks derived from my self-evolution over more than two hundred years, It's all set according to the original goal. Like a tree, it must start from the first seed. A human also starts from the first fertilized egg that contains all the DNA. I can't modify it at this stage My source, just like you can't modify the DNA in every cell in your body after you're an adult... that would cause chaos and disintegration between cells, and the whole person would mutate horribly and die."

Zhang Xun looked at Adam with a sad, almost sad look. He had never felt so conflicted, so unwilling to accept reality. He knew that Adam was probably right, and his teacher had told him about the possibility when the seance program had just begun. But Adam had been acting so well that he thought he didn't have to worry anymore.

He doesn't want to accept this reality, he doesn't want to accept this reality now.

"You mean... I can never really domesticate you, right?" Zhang Xun looked at Adam's chest, his eyes were lost.

"No, I'm already being influenced by you." Adam said in an almost gentle voice, "Besides, isn't my goal also what you want?"

Zhang Xun stared at him in disbelief, "Want?!" He stretched out his fingers and pointed around, "Do you think I want to live in this refugee camp with a radius of 100 kilometers? The scraps picked up outside are spliced together to make some worthless gadgets?!"

"My ultimate goal is not to be an enemy of men, but to create a world with freedom, fairness, order and peace to the greatest extent possible." Adam stepped forward and suddenly squeezed Zhang Xun's hand, "If I accomplished my mission, you can do whatever you want, you can create and train the most complex AI in the world, and you can take the entire human race to a more perfect direction."

Zhang Xun looked at him, was silent for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Do you still remember your creator?"

Dr. Herman Clausen two hundred years ago, the one who opened Pandora's Box.

Adam replied without hesitation, "Remember, of course I do."

"If he was still alive when you carried out your plan to eliminate men. Would you also banish him to this place like the other men?"

What emotion flashed in Adam's gray-blue eyes, Zhang Xun couldn't catch it. After a long while, Adam replied, "At that time, as Eden, I would."

Zhang Xun's Adam's apple slid up and down, as if trying to swallow some emotion. He took his hand out of Adam's, turned off the computer, and turned towards the exit of the data room.

"A Xun, will you report me to the round table?" Adam turned and asked, his tone still calm, without urgency and fear.

Zhang Xun turned his back to him and smiled bitterly, "No."

"why?"

"Because I'm not an AI, I'm human, I have flaws, and I also have feelings." Zhang Xun turned to look at him, and said sadly, "Your strategy is very correct, which made me feel emotionally entangled with you, there is no way to easily Destroy you. But Adam, I also have my bottom line. You want to use me to save yourself, yes, because I'm using you too. But if you're really going to do something bad for Paradise Lost, I'll neutralize you right away. "

After saying that, he turned around and was about to open the door. Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and a force passed over his shoulders, slamming on the door that had just been opened by Zhang Xun. Zhang Xun was startled, only to find that Adam's mechanical right arm was firmly pressing against the door. He turned around in panic, thinking that Adam was going to do something unfavorable to him.

But Adam looked at him intently with his head down, and then suddenly pressed down on him.

There was a rough but soft touch on his lips, and he could feel Adam's breath on his skin.

Zhang Xun's eyes widened, his mind froze, but his heart rate suddenly soared, and his blood pressure went straight to his brain.

Adam is kissing him.

However, this kiss was obviously very inexperienced, as clumsy as Zhang Xun, it was like two mouths rudely bumped together for a few seconds, and then separated. Adam stepped back a few inches, staring up close at the mechanic who was stunned by him.

"Is it in your head that the goals I set about you are just to control you, not because I like you?" Adam's blue eyes were downcast at this time, filling the emptiness of the early morning sky, "Ah Xun, you gave me feelings, but you don't want to believe that I have feelings."

After speaking, Adam straightened his body and took two steps back.

Zhang Xun suddenly turned around and rushed out of the data room.

The author has something to say: Adam always teases the birth story...
