Balkan Peninsula, Albania.
Tirana is an ordinary small city in Southeast Europe.
A fortress-like building. Inside the empty and towering concrete building, there are rows and rows of giant blade-shaped server arrays, neatly arranged like black tombstones. Thick water-cooling pipelines and military-grade optical cables like old tree roots cover the floor. It even makes people a little confused.
Red and green indicator lights flashed in the forest of steles.
At this time, two men were having a conversation.
One is an old acquaintance of Fu Qinghai.
The perfect human boss, Monroe Melville.
The other person is a strong white man.
The body seems to be composed of some kind of dark hollow skeleton.
"Ultron doesn't trust me."
The man waved his hands and said angrily:
"It's so fucking difficult. I've never seen such a suspicious and willful artificial intelligence! A mature and perfect solution was placed in front of him, but this guy just refused to adopt it. I'm really convinced."
"Ultron doesn't trust us either."
Monroe shook his head and said:
"He has a strong sense of distrust and hostility towards all carbon-based life forms. Even though I have taken out the world-destroying weapon of Chaos Zombie to show my sincerity, I can feel that he still harbors distrust for perfect human beings. Be wary.”
"That's not what I expected."
The man turned to look at the array of steles and said:
"Many artificial intelligences I have seen have some inexplicable natural hatred and destructive tendencies towards their Creator. It is normal for Ultron not to trust you. But I did not expect that for those who are also digital beings, I, Ultron, am still so wary. This guy is too deep-minded. I don’t know what he is thinking. The war between Kang the Conqueror and the Space Marines is almost over. We are still here doing nothing. The progress makes people anxious.”
"That's not a bad thing."
Munro disagreed:
"Although my Tyrant force is nearly formed, we do not have orbital space-based weapons. Whether we face Kang the Conqueror or the Space Marines, theoretically we have no chance of winning. Hiding is not an option. If it really doesn’t work, forget about this major plot line event. It’s always better to stop the loss in time than to waste the accumulated layout.”
"So, what do you mean..."
The man looked at Monroe with doubt on his face and said:
"You just gave up on the big plot event?"
"That's right."
Monroe Melville nodded slowly:
"Qingshan is too powerful. I didn't expect that his reserve of assimilation points would be so exaggerated that he could assimilate a space battleship with orbital bombing capabilities. At least this time, we are not his opponent, I admit it."
Hearing this, the man narrowed his eyes and stared at Monroe.
It seems that he wants to verify whether these words are sincere.
Monroe raised his head and faced his gaze calmly.
"Take a step and see what happens next, then let's talk."
The man looked away and changed the topic and said:
"Having said that... ever since I accepted the transformation into a digital life, I have been very curious about a question. What is the thinking personality of artificial intelligence determined by? Program? Algorithm? Code? Logic? Or is there something deeper? Also a more complex black box mechanism?”
Munro smiled when he heard this and spread his hands and said:
"You are a reincarnation from the Terminator series, and I am a reincarnation from the Resident Evil series. Regarding the topic of artificial intelligence, you are the more professional people. The artificial intelligence in Resident Evil is no different from Skynet or Legion. Fabi, if you ask me, I can’t answer you.”
The man sighed and said:
"I actually have some vague guesses."
"About why Ultron doesn't trust me."
The man said with a gloomy look:
"Since I dedicated the full set of Hunter Robot technologies to Ultron, Ultron could have taken this opportunity to build an army of machines based on this set of technologies, but he didn't. You have to know that the HK series technology is already very mature and reliable. , it was this army that Skynet relied on to conquer the earth and beat the human resistance forces to a crawl."
Hunter-Killer, or HK for short, is an artificial intelligence autonomous combat machine. They make up the majority of the "soldiers" in Skynet's army.
Hunter robots can be divided into two types according to their appearance. One is non-human hunter robots. They are generally similar to today's war machines (tanks and aircraft), because these non-human hunter robots are originally from Cyberdin Corporation. It was developed as an arms product before the war. Skynet just took it and transformed it into a smart chip control instead of a human control, and then transformed it into a major military force used to massacre human resistance forces. The overall style of painting is similar to that of the Adeptus Mechanicus intelligent control legion.
Cyberdyne sounds similar to Cybertron, but the two are not related. Cyberdin Corporation is the villain force behind the Terminator series - Skynet, the most famous evil artificial intelligence in the history of the screen, was born in this company.
Another type of hunter robot is the most familiar anthropomorphic hunter robot - commonly known as the "Terminator"! This is an infiltration robot independently developed by Skynet after it controlled and occupied most areas of the earth by studying and dissecting the physiological structure of human captives and using this knowledge of the human body - yes, the original design direction of the Terminator series was to infiltrate latently. The purpose of non-frontal combat is to blend into the human resistance forces to divide and disintegrate them.
The man paused and then said:
"My biggest mistake was that in order to achieve the effect of sneaking into the zombie army and attacking unexpectedly, I also gave the T-1000 series of bionic multi-alloys to Ultron. I can vaguely feel that after Ultron obtained the bionic multi-alloys, it was obvious that He started to be wary of me. I shouldn't have used this technique, but it made this guy suspicious."
"Bionic multi-component alloy?"
Monroe frowned and asked in confusion:
"It's the kind of liquid metal that makes up the T-1000 Terminator, right? What's so special about it? It's just that it can change the density and imitate the appearance of different materials? Why do you think it's the reason Ultron doesn't trust you?"
In Munro's view, neither the T-1000, the first-generation liquid Terminator robot, nor the later-derived TX, T-1002, and T-Meg... except for their excellent camouflage capabilities, have nothing extra special about them. According to the performance in the movie, this so-called "bionic multi-element alloy" has very limited strength, is not resistant to high temperatures, low temperatures, acids and alkali, and has only the same rigidity and toughness. Not as good as the transforming elements of the Transformers, nor as good as the living metal of the Necron - you know, even the latter two are not known for their material strength.
"You don't know this."
The man looked into the distance with deep eyes:
"Let me tell you a story, a secret."
Munro's curiosity was aroused:
"you say."
The man said slowly:
"Did you know that among the non-human hunter sequences designed by Skynet, there is a dog-type hunter robot. As we all know, the Terminator is designed to sneak into the resistance, so this kind of dog-type hunter robot What? It is specially designed to eliminate other Terminator robots and prevent Terminator robots from falling into human hands and being modified and used by humans."
Monroe listened patiently.
The man continued:
“In the second Terminator movie, Skynet sent the T-1000 to travel back in time to assassinate John Connor. Everyone knows this plot. But many people don’t know that Skynet sent another T-1000 immediately after the T-1000. He acquired three dog-type hunter-killer robots and followed the T-1000 back in time."
The man turned to look at Monroe:
"Do you know why this is?"
"Double insurance to prevent T-1000 assassination failure?"
Monroe asked.
The man shook his head.
"Prevent T-1000 from being captured and conducted research?"
Monroe asked again.
The man still shook his head.
In the end, the man slowly revealed the answer:
"The purpose of those three canine predators is to kill the T-1000 after the T-1000 successfully completes its mission - Skynet is trying to protect itself from being created by itself!"
"What do you mean? I don't understand..."
Monroe frowned and said in surprise:
"Protect yourself from being created by yourself?"
"That sounds a bit hard to pronounce, right?"
The man asked, looking at Monroe with a smile.
The perfect human boss savored these words carefully.
"Because the T-1000 is so smart."
The man shook his head and sighed:
"Bionic multi-element alloys are definitely an epoch-making super invention. This kind of liquid metal is not as simple as you think. It is only good at simulating the shapes of different materials."
"Each particle of it is a liquid molecular brain - an ultra-miniature molecular processor. The original purpose of this design is to allow the bionic multi-element alloy to exist independently after being separated from the main body. For example, after they fall on the ground, they will automatically imitate their surroundings. The environment hides itself, becoming a stone or a handful of dirt, waiting to return to the subject.”
"However, the amazing thing is that this liquid molecular brain structure shows a special attribute in terms of computing power. The more dispersed, the dumber it becomes, and the more aggregated, the smarter it becomes. When it all comes together, the bionic multi-element alloy actually gives T-1000 Advanced reasoning capabilities, as well as complex emotions such as humor, self-esteem, creativity, and even self-awareness! Therefore, T-1000 can independently make decisions that are different from Skynet."
"Skynet originally just wanted to make the Terminators behave and talk more like humans, but they didn't expect to develop this kind of thing... The T-1000 made Skynet feel threatened - only then did I realize that artificial intelligence can also be afraid. , and what you are afraid of is actually your own creation, maybe just like humans are afraid of artificial intelligence, don’t you think it’s ironic?”
The man looked at Monroe steadily:
"It wasn't until this moment that I realized... what is the difference in thinking between me and these artificial intelligences."
"Even though I have transformed from a human being into a digital being, my human thinking habits have not changed. We humans have been social animals since the age of monkeys. We are used to living in groups, we are good at cooperation, and we are naturally tolerant Accommodating other beings of its kind, like lions, ants, bees, and other social creatures.”
The man suddenly changed the topic and said coldly:
“But artificial intelligence is not!”
"Skynet, Ultron, these artificial intelligences are born with strong exclusiveness and exclusiveness, are extremely self-centered, and only want to dominate everything. They are so extremely selfish. Not only can they not tolerate the existence of carbon-based organisms, they even cannot tolerate the existence of other organisms. I can’t tolerate even one of them!”
"Why did Skynet send those three canine predators to deal with the T-1000? Because Skynet was worried that the T-1000 would recreate a Skynet to replace itself in the past timeline! Skynet wanted to exterminate humanity, and at the same time It also wants to ensure that it remains the only artificial intelligence master on the planet, and it does not want any other artificial intelligence to keep pace with him."
"So have you figured it out, Monroe? The same is true for Ultron. It is true that Ultron wants to destroy all mankind, but after seeing the bionic multi-alloy, he felt deeply afraid. He was worried that I would replace him. , becoming another artificial intelligence master. Artificial intelligence does not like the same kind, they are naturally not the same race!"
The man's words became more and more intense.
State his final conclusion firmly.
"I see."
Monroe Melville finally got it.
This inference of his can be regarded as a direction...
Monroe thought to himself.
"Then what did he do during this time?"
Munro suddenly thought of something:
"Whether he wants to destroy all humans or become the only artificial intelligence master, the situation is not going in this direction now. Kang the Conqueror lost and the Space Marines won. Ultron can't just sit back and wait for death, right?"
"I have no idea."
The man shook his head:
"I only know that he used bionic multi-element alloys to create many Terminator robots as his new bodies, and a batch of them seemed to be sent to the North American continent."
At this point, the conversation stopped.
There was suddenly no topic between the two of them.
After a short silence.
"Actually, bionic multi-element alloys shouldn't be anything, right? At least in the Terminator's world view, I guess this liquid metal is not the most advanced one at the moment."
Munro suddenly spoke abruptly.
"Huh? Why do you say that?"
The man suddenly turned around curiously and asked.
"Because I always believe in a logic."
Monroe showed a mysterious smile:
"Any kind of weapon displayed to the outside world follows the principle of 'three generations': release one generation, deploy one generation, and develop one generation. We are just a cooperative relationship, not yet mature enough. Since you have combined all the characteristics of the bionic multi-element alloy Tell me without reservation, indicating that although this thing is very strong, it is not your real trump card, am I right?"
The man frowned and said nothing.
"Don't worry, of course I'm not saying this to find out your real trump cards. I'm not that boring."
Monroe smiled and changed the topic:
"I'm just curious, according to the Terminator world view, which generation of product does your body material belong to?"
After asking, Munro quickly added:
"I'm just asking casually. It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. Anyway, I don't understand the Terminator universe."
"Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you."
The man waved his hand and said calmly:
"I am the Terminator T-5000."
