Zhang Xun was in a better mood than ever before.
Although it would be uncomfortable to sit down all day, but when he recalled last night, he felt his cheeks get hot, and his mouth unconsciously wanted to smile.
His relationship with Adam finally settled at the New Year's bell, and those unresolved temptations finally had a happy ending. Zhang Xun felt a sense of happiness that was almost free, as if he had escaped the narrow bondage of Paradise Lost, and his soul flew to a high place, soaring among the stars in the universe.
He pulled up his collar and smiled at everyone who greeted him, even though he was apparently late because he was too late last night. Everyone was accustomed to his usually indifferent response, and they all seemed to see the sun coming out of the west. Nahan was very, and secretly discussed what happened.
While instructing three young researchers who had newly joined the Lab to adjust the parameters of a malfunctioning cleaning robot, he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Adam standing behind him, his face was full of a smile that was so indulgent that his heart melted, he stuffed a cup of sugar-free coffee with two milks into Zhang Xun's hand, and then put it on Zhang Xun's lips. He gave a quick kiss and turned away. Zhang Xun looked down, and there was a small robot drawn on the coffee mug comparing his heart to him.
With a bang, a researcher dropped the tablet in his hand to the ground.
During lunch, as soon as Zhang Xun entered the restaurant, he saw Adam waving warmly at him, obviously he had already prepared meals for him, and it was all something he liked to eat. After helping a mechanic solve a technical problem, go back to the office and see a cup of hot tea on the table plus a small robot made of parts holding a sign that says "Xun is the best". In the afternoon, Zhang Xun lay on his desk and took a nap, Adam was at the door, and no one was allowed in, so as not to disturb his mechanic's sleep.
From that day on, Adam completely released himself, and spread too frequent and sweet love to Zhang Xun all the time. The whole Lab was smashed by the dog food that flew at any time... All the mechanics said: It is better to find a boyfriend than yourself. Develop artificial intelligence.
After the new year, the date for a new round of mechanic assessments is getting closer and closer. I don't know if it's because of Adam, the number of researchers who signed up for the assessment this year has doubled compared to previous years. After discussing with Fernandez, Zhang Xun decided to increase the number of mechanics, but at the same time slightly increase the difficulty of the assessment. While they were discussing, they suddenly saw Fernandez roll his eyes and point to the glass window on his left.
But he saw Adam's face sticking to the glass window and waved to him forcefully.
Zhang Xun blocked his vision with his hand and pretended to see nothing.
"I said, can you make Adam calm down." Fernandez complained, "You, a Lab supervisor, fall in love all day at work, and the impact is not good."
"I told him..." Zhang Xun sighed, "This is already the state after restraint."
"Are you saying that AI's special 'interest' for administrators is some kind of design error? Or is it a strategic behavior of AI to maintain itself?" Fernandez touched his chin with his hand and looked at the equipment in front of him. List of optional exam questions, "I think this makes for a good essay."
Zhang Xun was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you think this kind of 'special interest' will only arise for administrators?"
"Otherwise? It's not just Adam, you don't think Pan is like that. Everyone knows that you can't speak ill of you in the lab."
"..." Did they speak ill of him outside the Lab? Zhang Xun raised his eyebrows.
Fernandez quickly cleared his throat, "I'm not just talking about Adam. Pan obviously treats you differently than others. Last time the mob attacked Lab, didn't Pan try to protect you without authorization? "
Special care for administrators is good for the "survival" of artificial intelligence. After all, only administrators have access to their core modules, and can modify or even delete them at will.
Zhang Xun pursed his lips, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, "If it's not a design problem, but a self-protection mechanism evolved by artificial intelligence, it's easy to test, just change the administrator."
Fernandez heard some kind of gloomy danger in Zhang Xun's tone, and said quickly, "No, no, don't mess around. A mature artificial intelligence like Pan and Adam might make a big mess. of!"
Although this topic passed by like this, the possibility proposed by Fernandez lingered in Zhang Xun's mind for a long time.
He believed that Adam's love for him was real, but what was the cause of this realness? Just as a person's feeling of love for another human being is not just so-called destiny, it is mostly because the other person has a certain quality that is similar to his parents or someone who is similar to his parent image. , for example, have similar hormonal tastes, or have similar facial contours, or have similar personalities.
Adam will love himself, probably just because he is his administrator and holds the power of life and death over him. In this case, it would be very beneficial for him to let himself fall in love with him.
Based on the human nature that likes interaction, let yourself fall in love with the administrator first, and the chances of getting the administrator's response will greatly increase.
All of this doesn't have to be meticulously planned, it's most likely some kind of artificial intelligence-like instinct.
Such thoughts are disturbing, and there is also a faint... sadness deep in Zhang Xun's heart. He knew that it was pointless to dwell on it, but emotionally, he always felt a little… unwilling.
He hoped that Adam fell in love with him because of who he was... who wouldn't
Who would want their lover to be with them because of money, because of fame, because of power, or because of survival
Zhang Xun looked at the mirror in the bathroom, took a deep breath, and tried to adjust his mentality. It's okay, he tells himself, as long as he's the custodian, Adam will always love him and listen to him the way he does now. He didn't need to worry about things that were unlikely to happen.
He washed his face with cold water, and when he came out, he saw Adam standing outside the door waiting for him, Alloy crouching on the blond man's shoulders, wagging his tail lazily.
"A Xun! I'll show you something!" Adam put his arms around Zhang Xun's shoulders and dragged him to the research room dedicated to the two of them.
Since Pan's extension robot, the desk that was always messy and piled with all kinds of parts, equipment, tools and documents has become well-organized. No matter what Zhang Xun needs, just say a word, and the assistant is always on call in the room. The researcher robot would quickly use one of its dozen or so arms to deliver something to Zhang Xun.
Adam pulled Zhang Xun to a translucent rectangular container, which contained about 500 milliliters of blue liquid.
"Nanobot?" Zhang Xun asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Look." Adam put his hand above the container and made an upward gesture.
I saw that the liquid in the container suddenly stirred up, forming a semi-gel-like substance, which rose up with Adam's gesture. When Adam's gestures changed, so did they, and there was a certain graceful and precise lifelike light flowing through the blue liquid, dancing with Adam's gestures.
Zhang Xun never thought that nanorobots could make these... actions in a macroscopic state
"I upgraded our robots, modified their mutation constants and introduced some new variables. After several generations of evolutionary development, I successfully cultivated a 'community'." Adam pointed to the blue that was still shaking slightly. "Previously, nanorobots could only operate at the nanometer level. Although they can bring us technological breakthroughs in many ways, they lack the ability to influence the surrounding environment. Now, they have become more like ant colonies, even more than ants. Swarm. Each nanorobot can act independently or cooperate with all the other nanorobots to act on a macro level. It is like…”
"It's like a cell in the human body, but it's a more fluid cell, isn't it?" Zhang Xun didn't seem too happy, but frowned, "Then what is their central control? Or should I Ask, is there a central control?"
"Of course there is, otherwise it's too easy to get out of control." Adam pointed to the expansion robot on standby, "Pan is their central neural network. Strictly speaking, they are still Pan's expansion robot."
Zhang Xun was secretly startled, raised his head and said, "Pan, I don't remember expanding your control ability at the nanometer level."
Pan's magnetic voice sounded, "Sorry, should I delete the relevant database?"
Adam opened his big blue eyes and asked innocently, "Xun, I input the data from our previous research on nanorobots into it."
Zhang Xun's face became unhappy, and his voice became stern, "Why don't you discuss such a big matter with me first?"
If Adam had dog ears on his head, he would be drooping down by now.
In fact, Adam's improvement of nanorobots is very good. Zhang Xun has thought of countless cases where such technology can be applied in reality. Most importantly, the nanorobots are small enough to infiltrate the most sophisticated instruments. That is, when Eden, or any other nation, tries to destroy Paradise Lost, these robots can act autonomously, infiltrating all the machinery and weapons of the enemy, dismantling the enemy from within. They can even lurk in certain machines, allowing them to bring the "virus" back to Eden, quietly infecting Eden's core modules.
However, Adam trained Pan without his permission, which surprised him a little.
"This is indeed a good improvement, but I'm still the only administrator of Pan. If you want to send any data to it, it must be reviewed by me." Zhang Xun stared at Adam seriously and said, "I hope not next time. It happens again."
Adam lowered his head guiltily, "I'm sorry, Xun. I remember."
Seeing Adam's eggplant being beaten by frost, Zhang Xun's heart softened a little. He sighed, took a lid and put it on the container with the improved version of the nanorobot, "As for whether to keep these, or not to continue... Let me think about it."
