Will the out-of-control servitor meet the cosmic cat?

After a few seconds, the young scientist should have obtained the permission of his superiors, and he nodded slightly, and asked: "Dear Your Excellency Hong, may I ask, what do you mean, the body of the same race has mastered it, and the mechanical Is it really smart technology?"

"Yes."

Hong recognized it without hesitation. Although the same race does not currently have this level of technology, but with her solid mechanical intelligence, coupled with the cooperation of weak artificial intelligence through copying her program, she wants outsiders to think that they all have Consciousness is really too simple.

After learning that the other party does not have artificial intelligence technology, Hong immediately came up with a method to "deter" the Farsati people, not directly using the fleet strength to intimidate the Federation, but by showing the unparalleled advanced technology of the same race , so that they are deeply aware of the gap between the two parties.

If this is a game, if Fasati clicks on the popular diplomatic interface, he will definitely see the sentence "Technological strength: like a god".

"Oh my god." He sighed subconsciously, and then the person next to him knelt down calmly, reminding him not to expose too much—but at this time, the young scientist had no mind to think about it, and his mind was full of thoughts. It was Hong's very natural answer.

Yes.

"So, you can let the machine work by itself?" He asked excitedly, "Let the machine do its own research, let the machine produce by itself, and let the machine fight by itself?"

"Yes."

"Even." He took a deep breath, "Let them improve themselves?"

"Yes."

Hong responded with a smile on his face, these questions were exactly what Hong wanted to say through their mouths.

"I'm very sorry, this is our accompanying scientist." Although they were very surprised by this "thinking machine", considering that this was a formal diplomatic occasion, one of the highest-ranking officials chose to smooth things over, "He just I'm just too obsessed with technology, please don't blame him for his recklessness, Your Excellency Hong."

"It doesn't matter, we don't care about this. The same group likes these people who study scientific research. If possible, we are also willing to reach some scientific research agreements with your country."

Hong finally threw out today's highlight - the scientific research agreement.

"What..." Even the foreign minister who had experienced battles subconsciously spit out half a syllable, and then quickly shut his mouth, but this syllable alone was enough for Hong to guess their hearts.

With such an advanced civilization, if you want to negotiate a scientific research agreement with them, isn't this simply giving away technology for nothing?

This is not just giving you technology, not only giving you technology, but also helping you train a group of scientific experts in related fields to go back. This is not showing favor, what is this?

"Thank you very much for your generosity!" Several people exchanged glances with each other, and immediately replied, "This matter is really important, please forgive me--we need to contact the high-level officials of our country and ask them to discuss this matter thing."

"It doesn't take too long, as long as you allow us to transport a piece of equipment from the spacecraft, the video conference can start immediately."

"can."

Hong made a gesture of please.

Although Hong has no source of information in Fasati, she believes that at this time, Fasha's higher-ups have understood the power of artificial intelligence technology and the crushing advantage of the same clan in this regard.Because in the ten minutes since they moved the equipment, all the high-ranking Fasan officials had assembled on the opposite side.

Many people looked like they had just been dragged out of bed, put on formal clothes and dragged to the council hall - especially a few dressed like scientists, which explained what is meant by "unkempt".

"let's start."

Seeing that both sides were almost ready, Hong opened his mouth and said.

"First of all, I want to clarify my identity again so that everyone can understand our next negotiation." Hong took out a few photos, all of which were randomly selected supercomputing arrays around the world, "You can understand that these are my body They, at least some of them."

The other party didn't speak, leaving enough time for Hong to explain—of course, like the delegation, those scientists were also shocked by Hong's words, and they were chattering endlessly, but it was obvious that the people who had expected all this The officials simply turned off their microphones, so Hong didn't hear anything.

"My name is Hong, mechanical intelligence, the supreme ruler of the same family, the director of scientific research, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, etc. In short, I have complete control over most of the decisions of the same family."

"Is there anything you want to know about these?"

President Fasati at the other end of the screen nodded and motioned for the person who seemed to have the highest level of scientific research to speak—why did the Red Society make such a judgment?Quite simply, he is the baldest.

Based on the principle that the more bald the hair, the higher the level, Hong believes that he should be the one with the highest scientific literacy here.

"Excuse me, does this mean that while you are negotiating with us, you are still operating the fleet, organizing production, technology research and development, etc.?" He cleared his throat and continued, "Does it mean that you are not Can you do all of the above on your own with the help of another person?"

"Yes."

This is not the time for modesty. At this moment, what Hong needs to do most is to show the strength of her fellow body as much as possible. Only in this way can Hong be sure to get her only shortcoming, the complete set of organic creatures. gene technology.

"I'm sorry for asking these questions, because I really can't imagine." Unlike the diplomatic corps, after the official negotiations start, they don't need to hide their ignorance in artificial intelligence technology, because they can't hide it at all, and the gap is too big. It's too big, "We can't imagine that there is such a consciousness that can exist in the network and in the machine."

"We know so little about consciousness."

Red nodded without changing her expression—although she didn't know how to do it, but it didn't matter, the technology that Hong wanted to negotiate was about weak artificial intelligence, which had already been developed long before Katus had just ascended to the sky. Research out of the old technology.

But for an interstellar civilization that still uses slaves as labor force, the allure of this technology is too great to imagine.

"Through the powerful computing power provided by the supercomputer array, combined with our mechanically intelligent life forms, we can easily control most of the production activities on a continent or even a planet."

Hong has started to draw cakes. Although a strong enough weak artificial intelligence can indeed do this, it requires a huge amount of code, and countless cutting-edge scholars and programmers control and maintain it day and night. It is definitely not like what she said. so easy.

But the Farsati people don't know, just listen to Hong's description, the production capacity provided by this production method has completely crushed any method they are currently using.

What's more, even the early weak artificial intelligence technology is a huge fortune. How can anyone be picky about the behavior that is equivalent to giving charcoal in a timely manner?

"But you need to know one thing, even if it is incomplete artificial intelligence technology, it is not given away for nothing, it needs you to pay some price in exchange for it, can you understand this?"

Several leaders whispered and made up their minds.

This technology is too critical for them, and they are ready to make a huge price-no matter how much the price is, it is already extremely lucky to be able to exchange existing things for a brand new technology tree .

At this time, the Farsati people are extremely grateful for the slowness and arrogance of the Federation and the Empire in this regard, so that they who are farthest away can seize the opportunity.

"Understood, please speak, Your Excellency Hong."

"I want your genetic modification technology."

"Yes, this is part of the scientific research agreement, and we are ready."

The president agreed without hesitation, Hong nodded in satisfaction and said nothing more.

"Well, then what?"

Seeing that Hong didn't speak for a long time, the bald research director slowly stood up under the guidance of other people's eyes, and asked the question to the red photo on the screen.

"Did I not understand enough?" Even though she knew what the other party meant, Hong still asked knowingly—this is what she wanted, "Your genetic technology, replace our weak artificial intelligence technology, pay attention, you need all your genes Technology, anything that has something to do with genetics, we want."

The expected price was so different from Hong's request that they all suspected that they had heard it wrong.

"This..." They swallowed all the rest of the words - isn't this a free gift?

"Excuse me, this exchange should be unfair to you, right?" If the price was a little higher, they could tell themselves that Hong didn't know how to do it, and let them pick up a big bargain, but this is really They don't even dare to pick up cheap genetic technology that doesn't hurt or itch.

Just like today, when the weather is sunny and sunny, when you go shopping and find that a 100 yuan note has been dropped on the ground, many people will put it away and think it is good luck.But if you are walking and find that someone has built a hill with hundred yuan bills in the alley, and then sees you coming, please go over quickly and say that you are the 999th customer of our store, you can take the money as you like.

Everyone will feel wrong, right?

Even if someone really has such a big heart and really takes it, but when he looks up and finds that there are more than a dozen submachine guns (fleet of the same family) pinned behind the person who invited you over, he will be too scared to take it.

"I think it's pretty good." Hong thought for a while, and then added, "This is a mutually beneficial scientific research agreement. The same family is relatively weak in genetic technology, and you are relatively lacking in artificial intelligence technology. Both sides will draw on their strengths. , isn't it good?"

It's more than lacking, it's not there at all.

The scientific research supervisor whose specialty is information technology exchanged glances with the person who was specialized in genetic technology, and hesitated to speak.

"Forget it, I'll just say it straight." Hong decided to properly reveal a little "weakness" and make the other party think that he has everything under control, which is the best way to deceive, "Our organic population is very small, and genetic technology is still relatively backward. , Therefore, we need you to assist us in increasing the population and carrying out genetic modification, this is our exchange condition."

The speaker is "unintentional", and the listener has the heart. A question that has troubled the Farsati people for a long time has finally been solved-why did the same race have such advanced technology, but waited so long to open the first wormhole?

"Understood, thank you very much for your generosity!"

The president hurriedly stood up and made a deep bow, and at the same time shut down the microphones of a few outspoken guys to prevent them from speaking out about this matter-this information can be used to exchange some information with the red lord in the subsequent negotiations. Other information should not be wasted by letting them talk about it for a while.

"You're welcome."

Hong also responded with a smile, the other party felt that he had made a lot of money, and Hong felt that he had exchanged an old technology that did not know how many years ago for a strong insurance for the safety of the cubs, and a safe technology for making Catus , also made a big profit.

Both sides feel that they have made a profit, so who loses?

------

PS1: After thinking about it, this kind of transitional chapter will not be divided, and the two chapters will be published in one chapter.

PS2: Thank you readers for your support, the signing is finally successful!

Volume 24 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Smashing Walnuts

The negotiation ended very smoothly. Both parties used technologies that were useless to them, and exchanged for what they urgently needed. It can be said that everyone is happy.

As a result, the Fasati Diplomatic Corps stayed on the space station as a matter of course and became a temporary mobile embassy-they really wanted to take this opportunity to directly station in the long-term embassy, ​​and by the way, promote the alliance of the two races. Can't reach an alliance agreement with Hong.

After some analysis, they found that this same ethnic group had basically no conflict of interest with them.The Farsati need a large number of foreign populations to transform into their own population, but the characteristics of the same ethnic group are that the organic population is small (in fact, it is almost useless), and the production capacity depends entirely on artificial intelligence.

In this way, Fasati has no motivation to attack the same race, and the gain outweighs the loss. Fasati arrests people only to integrate and sublimate and increase the population. If the people captured after a battle have not died, Then why fight?

What's more, Fasati has already left the barbaric period of early arrest. If they can negotiate peacefully and help each other and benefit each other, they are not willing to take risks and use violence.

After their impassioned speech, Hong nodded and refused.

Signing a research agreement with Fasati is mainly because Hong urgently needs advanced genetic technology to make up for her shortcomings, and it does not mean that Hong's isolationist foreign policy has changed.

The difference is that they are deterred by technology, while the deterrent by force is used against Jeffery Red—essentially some kind of deterrent behavior, so that they can do what they want, and don't have any crooked thoughts about the cubs.

"We will not take the risk of letting the nationals contact you." Hong directly showed her distrustful attitude, "Although I believe in your promise that you will not assimilate our population, what about your nationals? Clan alliance, they secretly transform a few, how do you manage it?"

"This..."

Although they really want to explain that the "sublimation ceremony" process is extremely long and complicated, and individuals cannot complete it without the support of the government, but they know that it is useless to say this-this machine intelligence is showing a protective look, and it doesn't want to do it at all. Let her pups take any chances.

"This may have to wait until we finish the genetic customization project."

The gene customization project is a super-large-scale genetic engineering that the Farsati people are currently carrying out. They plan to get rid of all the current slow and inefficient reproductive methods and convert them into real conventional life. At that time, ordinary Fashas Raising people can increase the population through natural reproduction.

The new planets that have been conquered can also be transformed efficiently through the large-scale assimilation facilities built by the government. At that time, as long as this kind of upgrade room is not built on planets bordering the same race, Hong's worries can be completely resolved.

"Then wait and see."

Hong ended today's negotiation with a smile. It could be seen that the Farsati people wanted to form an alliance with her so much that they came up with various tricks to dispel Hong's doubts. At the same time, they proposed many favorable terms to benefit her—if normal On the one hand, there is an alliance treaty that is extremely beneficial to itself, including unilateral no tariffs on goods, willingness to build a settlement area with the currency of the same clan (however, the same clan has no currency), and so on.

On the other hand, the probability has been reduced to an extremely low level. The possible fusion behavior of certain foreign individuals will mostly ignore this insignificant risk. A case that does not necessarily happen once a year is compared with a treaty with many benefits , which is more important?

But Hong just cares more about her son.

"Just letting you get close to the living area is an impossible thing." After confirming that the communication is properly closed, Hong said to himself, "Without my teaching and testing since childhood, it is considered a normal organic creature. It is also impossible to enter the living quarters."

Hong only trusts the cubs he raised with his own hands, and complete trust is only shown to Xier at present--Bai has been getting along with him during this time, it can be regarded as half of complete trust, higher than other cubs, but Slightly lower than Xier.

As for the so-called "trust" in other races, it's all just a balance of interests, and it's just a snake.

Hong shook the mobile storage device in his hand, which contained some materials presented by Fasati as a show of favor. With them, Hong could more accurately balance the diplomatic relations between the three clans.

"Is this the legendary offshore balance?"

Hong muttered to herself, and returned to the intense work on the ground.

It is said to be very tense, but in fact it is not so. Hong itself is quite leisurely - the busy factories and space facilities are mainly engaged in mining, smelting, and production 48 hours a day to provide for Hong's 25-year plan. Strong logistical support.

But after so many years, Red has optimized their programs to a very high level. Even if they are completely out of Red's monitoring and rely on the artificial intelligence of each planet to operate themselves, they can still complete tasks in an orderly manner. The main role is to optimize the process and deal with emergencies that they cannot solve by themselves.

There are not many such incidents on all the planets in one day, and the scientific research tasks that usually occupy the main computing power have recently entered a semi-stalled state, and a large amount of computing power has been idled, doing nothing all day long.

From the pre-industrial era with the explosion of theoretical physics to the current interstellar civilization that spans several planets, strictly speaking, there has been no great progress in basic physics—Red has been eating the food left by the Catus people thousands of years ago. It's just the old book.

There is no essential difference between the giant interstellar warships galloping in space and the dilapidated propeller planes in the planet. The theory of relativity is still the theory of relativity. Quantum physics is still what was known hundreds of years ago. people found on the Standard Model.

She still doesn't know what dark matter is, and she still doesn't understand the mystery of superluminal speed. Let alone the grand unified theory, gravity has passed for so many years, and it is still outside the framework of quantum mechanics.

Three of the four fundamental forces can already be accommodated in the standard model, so why is gravity alone?

"Almost at a standstill."

This is a true portrayal of the basic physics research of homologous bodies.Particles are like a walnut, countless mysteries are hidden in the small walnut kernel, covered by the plain walnut shell outside.

And what the particle collider needs to do is to collide two walnuts at a speed infinitely close to the speed of light, break open the solid shell, and let all the secrets inside be revealed to Hong—those who used to be hundreds or even several The ten-kilometer collider can only open a crack in the shell, exposing a little bit of walnut kernel for their research.

But this is not enough, the next thing Hong has to do is to smash it open.

If the global accelerator is not enough, go to space to build a planetary ring belt, if the planetary ring belt is not enough, go to the accelerator around the sun, if the ring around the sun is not enough, go to the Milky Way.

Although many people accuse us of not thinking about how to optimize the existing solutions or how to find another way when the research is stagnant, they will only blindly ask for a larger accelerator, but we have to say.

If you can't smash the particles, it only means that the accelerator you built is not big enough.

Volume 25 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Tribute as an Advanced Form of Alliance

Jeffery didn't have much to say. After Hong switched to genetic technology, the Federation and the Empire had absolutely nothing that Hong needed.

In addition to the population, Hong is not a "Galaxy Liberator". As long as the enslavement does not happen near her own star field or on her own people, she will not say that she will travel thousands of miles away. Star liberates those aliens.

What she likes is her own, cute cubs that are raised by Hong herself from body to mind, not those aliens who have all sorts of messy thoughts.

"We have no intention of participating in the war between the three parties, nor do we want to reach an alliance or arms sales agreement with any party. As long as you don't go through the wormhole, you can pretend that we don't exist."

After confirming that Hong's policy of "isolationism" was being implemented here, the federal special envoy who got the reply went back happily.
