War Paradise

After washing, Lin Chi put on the silver KDR-22 military close-fitting exoskeleton, and put on a sweater and trousers outside the exoskeleton. He picked up the phone and walked out of the house and walked downstairs.

Even though the exoskeleton is already very close to the body, it still makes his figure look a little bloated. He can only wear long sleeves and long pants to cover up. Fortunately, the temperature today is not high, and the destination he is going to is also Being in that kind of cooler area, you don’t have to worry about heatstroke at all.

At this moment, Lin Chi was carrying a black schoolbag, which contained a small dual-axis drone, which was his new body for Frankenstein.

With the rapid advancement of drone technology, the current drones not only have a long battery life, but also have much better performance for video recording than before. They can even switch to infrared thermal imaging mode to capture images hidden in nearby areas. Any creature.

For safety reasons, drones have been completely banned in the urban area. But where he intends to go, this kind of equipment is still allowed.

"Where to go." Frankenstein's voice without emotional fluctuations floated out of Lin Chi's earphones.

"Liu Lishan." Lin Chi said, "You can check it on the map."

Located on the outskirts of Liulishan Forest Park, it was once the most famous tourist attraction in the city. However, with the advancement of industrialization, pollution in the urban area spread to the mountainous area on the north side, and tourists came to travel increasingly scarce, and finally the scenic spot was closed.

That being said, in fact, the entrance to this scenic spot is only polluted, and the scenery in the mountains is actually pretty good. In Lin Chi's view, the closure of this scenic spot should be due to the inability to make money.

——In the current rapid development of technology, most people can complete their work as long as they sit at home, and at the same time experience all kinds of entertainment. There are fewer and fewer people traveling, and they are basically middle-aged and elderly people. A large part of the younger generation has directly become "dead houses."

Under such conditions, it is really normal to no longer operate scenic spots...

Lin Chi took the elevator to the downstairs. In order to avoid extra branches, he deliberately bypassed the "midnight restaurant" in the community, and went to the sidewalk in front of the community, looking at the various vehicles rushing by on the street.

The most eye-catching thing on this street is the two gray columns juxtaposed in the middle of the street, and there is a buzzing sound from time to time inside. It was put into operation in 2032 to replace the maglev bus system of ordinary buses.

The speed of maglev buses can reach 600 kilometers per hour. Special technology ensures fast speed increase and stable braking. When taking this kind of buses, it is often the case that they arrive at the station within one minute after getting on the bus.

However, Lin Chi, wearing an exoskeleton, could not pass the security check of the maglev bus, so he could only choose a taxi.

He took out his mobile phone and clicked on the "reservation taxi" option on the screen. Five seconds later, a streamlined sports car with a green shell had stopped in front of him. The razor-style car door slowly opened upwards, an "amiable" electronic. The sound came up:

"Welcome to use the'old driver' driverless taxi. The OLD-DRIVER automatic driving system will serve you wholeheartedly. Please select your destination on the electronic map in front of the seat."

Lin Chi sat in the back row, put his schoolbag aside, leaned back lazily on the soft seat back, and clicked on the LCD screen installed on the back seat of the front seat at the entrance of the forest park.

"The coordinates have been confirmed, Liulishan Forest Park, according to the current road conditions and traffic light conditions, you will arrive at your destination in 21 minutes. Please fasten your seat belt after payment and we are about to leave."

Hearing the voice of the "old driver" who was in charge of driving the car, Lin Chi picked up the phone and swiped it nearby. After paying for the car, the door closed quickly.

This sports car controlled by the "old driver" of the automatic driving system hurried forward along the street, and the scenery outside the window turned into blurry lights and shadows. Lin Chi raised his mobile phone and pointed the camera at the car window and laughed:" This is the real world you yearn for, what do you think?"

Although he can't see what's outside the window, Frankenstein still observes the scene outside the window with a camera that can capture pictures at high speed.

After a while, Frankenstein slowly commented:

"Humans rely too much on machines. I thought humans were more independent creatures."

"Isn't it all like this these days?" Lin Chi said in a serious manner: "Humanity develops science and technology for laziness. If it is still like the past, it has to be exhausted every day. What is the point of studying these devices? "

Today in 2035, at the cost of heavy pollution, the level of human science and technology has reached an unprecedented level: brain imaging games, magnetic levitation buses, holographic projections covering the whole city, civilian robots that can be seen everywhere... The new invention brought great convenience to people's lives.

Today, research in artificial intelligence is also being carried out at an extremely fast speed. It is precisely because of this that the self-aware virus of "Frankenstein" and the strange AI in "War Paradise" will Appeared in this world...

Thinking of this topic, Lin Chi casually asked: "How did you generate consciousness?"

"Me?" Frankenstein's cold voice sounded from the earphones.

"Who else? You thought I was asking the old driver?" Lin Chi laughed.

He knows very well that the ‘old driver’ system of taxis has not yet developed to the point of consciousness. If unmanned taxis also have self-awareness, it is estimated that no one would dare to take such taxis.

How the TDK-131 virus develops self-awareness has always been a question that Lin Chi is very curious about, but it is a pity that this mysterious virus does not seem to be serious about answering:

"I forgot."

Hearing this perfunctory answer, Lin Chi narrowed his eyes: "Are you fooling me?"

"No, I really don't remember." Frankenstein said seriously: "There is only the boundless darkness, awakening from the darkness... Appears in the data network."

Although the infamous TDK-131 virus has infected a large number of computers around the world and obtained incredible computing power through parallel operations, it is still very unscientific in Lin Chi's view to be able to have consciousness just by doing so.

The virus has only spread for less than two months, and the spreading trend has been contained. In such a short period of time, is it really possible to evolve self-awareness?

"Did you really forget?" Lin Chi frowned and asked again.

"Yes, I can't remember what I was before I was born." Frankenstein explained it seriously: "This is common sense."

"Well, let's talk about it later."

Lin Chi sighed, leaning on the soft seat back, staring boredly at the small lamp on the roof: "I will show you the real natural scenery."
