"Mr. Byrne Stark, I heard that your company has manufactured a smart home robot, right?"

Seeing Byrne and Tony Stark both looking at him, Stern opened the file and asked.

"That's right."

Byrne nodded.

"Are you considering producing a war robot with offensive capabilities?"

Stern asked next.

"Are you inquiring about our company's secrets?"

Byrne asked with a smile.

"Mr. Byrne is serious, I'm just asking casually.

Stern waved.

But then he asked, "What do you think of the impact of war robots on the war situation?"

"Can you guarantee that the robot will not go berserk or attack people?"

"Can you afford the threats and losses they bring to national security and interests?"

He asked three questions in a row, which immediately caused the people present to think deeply.

"Go berserk? Attack people? Yes! Once those robots go berserk, there's nothing ordinary people can do about them, right?"

"Definitely, they are all made of steel, and ordinary bullets may not be able to destroy them, let alone humans.

"Oh my God! If robots are used in every household, once they all go wild, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"That's right, who wants to put a time bomb in their home?"

"Once that happens, the losses and threats it will bring to the country are simply unimaginable!"

"At least a nuclear-level threat!"

"No, it's a greater threat than nuclear weapons! At least nuclear weapons still have room to stop it. There is no reason for this robot to go berserk.

The discussion in the conference hall became more and more intense, but Byrne always smiled, crossed his legs, drank the coffee brought to him by Helen Zhao, and said nothing.

The same goes for Tony next to him. He even laughed out loud under the puzzled looks of others without even trying to hide it.

But he didn't say anything, he just listened quietly to everyone's discussion.

It wasn't until things calmed down that Byrne put down his coffee and asked with a smile on his face,

"Rampage? Congressman, have you seen too much of Mechanical Enemy?"

"you..."

Stern blushed. The way he thought of was to use the robot's rampage in Mechanical Enemy to force the opponent.

But he didn't expect that the other party seemed to be able to read minds, and he was exposed immediately.

Byrne shook his head and continued,

"We at Stark Group have definitely thought about the issues that everyone is worried about."

"You have overlooked an issue here. Going berserk means that the robot has self-awareness, but a piece of code that wants to have consciousness is like spitting out ivory from a dog's mouth. Do you think it is possible?"

"Oh, definitely, if the dog is named Stern, that's still possible."

As Byrne spoke, he glanced at Senator Stern on the stage and saw that his body was shaking with anger. He smiled and continued,

"Our robot is like your home TV, and you are like the remote control of the TV. If you don't issue instructions, do you think the TV can switch channels on its own?"

After speaking, the huge conference hall fell silent, and Byrne did not continue speaking.

"No, I think your metaphor is wrong. Your robot can walk, but the TV can't walk. Even if it can automatically switch channels, it won't pose a threat?"

Stern thought for a moment and objected.

"Look, the dog actually talked!"

Byrne said with surprise.

"Hahaha..."

The whole room burst into laughter.

But what they laughed at was not that Byrne said he was a dog, but what he said.

In the eyes of people like them, what Stern said was just like a child acting recklessly.

Those who can come here are definitely smart people. Byrne only needs to mention it and use a simple metaphor, and they will naturally understand the reason.

What Byrne said obviously means that they are the ones in control, and those robots are just household appliances with more functions than a TV.

As long as they (bcac) don't issue instructions, they are nothing.

Turns out you said it has more functions than a TV?

Isn't that just a fool's statement?

As for the rampage... they all suddenly realized it.

I was almost driven into a ditch by Stern's words.

At this time, Stern also realized the problem in his words, and his old face turned red again.

Quickly changing the subject, "But if it is made into a war robot with offensive power, its impact on the battlefield will be obvious. This cannot be denied, right?"

"Definitely, no one wants their enemy to be Iron Man."

Byrne nodded calmly.

"If that's the case, then why don't you make it for the military?"

"With the large number of casualties on the battlefield, not only Mr. Xian, but also their families don't have to worry about it, you should also know that, right?"

Stern replacement strategy.

An inexhaustible moral kidnapping was used.

Although it was a bit risky to do it in front of S.H.I.E.L.D., the matter was at this point and he had no other choice.

"You seem to have made a mistake. Even if we want to manufacture war robots, we have never said that we will sell them, right? What else does it mean to manufacture for you?"

Byrne knocked on the table and asked.

Tony, who had been silent beside him, finally couldn't help it, looked at the congressman on the stage and asked,

"Are you committing moral kidnapping?"

"In these days, moral kidnapping is not easy to use. Casualties are essential on the battlefield. Either someone on our side is killed, or someone from the enemy is killed. This cannot be used as an excuse.

Following Tony, Nick Fury, who had always been silent, also spoke.

He looked at the congressmen on the stage and continued,

"Even if war-type robots are used, the other party may also use them, and the casualties may be more, and it will be even more uncontrollable.

"In that case, please hand over your technology and let the country manufacture it!"

Stern wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and could only force himself.

"Hand over manufacturing technology? You really dare to think about it!"

Tony just laughed and clapped,

"You actually want to take away Byrne's hard work and achievements like this? What a good idea!"

"I heard this little calculation at home."

"Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard, this is Amrican!"

"If you dare to steal other people's technology today, you will dare to steal other people's wives tomorrow!"

Everyone in the huge conference room was amused again by Stern's words.

"This is the funniest joke I've heard today."

Byrne smiled, refused directly and said,

"If I trigger any law, or if any law stipulates that private research and development technology must be handed over to the state, come back to me then."

"I'm always with you!"
