Chapter 257 Divided into two

The paradise designer who called himself a god did not intimidate Lu Yang. He asked with interest: "I wonder if you can tell me how you changed from a paradise designer to a god in a ring?"

The park designer leaned on the Grand Master's chair, and the old god said: "Although I don't know what happened outside, 6432 years ago, a big shocking event should have happened in the Galaxy Federation. Am I right?"

Lu Yang affirmed the paradise designer's statement: "You said it well. But unfortunately, I don't know what happened back then."

The park designer nodded and continued with his hands in his arms, "It doesn't matter, what happened to the Galaxy Federation has nothing to do with me. I just know that at that moment, all the tourists from the Galaxy Federation in Cultivation Paradise were urgently teleported away, and my master Count Clovie also lost contact at the same time. My main server is similar to ordinary planetary infrastructure, and they are physically isolated from the Galaxy Main Network. Therefore, as a full-time artificial intelligence in Cultivation Paradise, I have neither the motivation nor the way to investigate what happened to the Galaxy Federation back then. However, this shocking change made me, who was still a paradise designer at that time, feel a little restless in my heart."

"Restless?"

The park designer leaned on the chair of the Grand Master, with a look of memories on his face: "At the chief designer of the Cultivation Paradise, I was one of the most cutting-edge planetary artificial intelligence produced by the Galaxy Federation, which is more than a hundred times stronger than this little guy named Chenxi. In addition, I have been observing, summarizing, and analyzing the behavior patterns of the Galaxy human race for many years. I have observed for more than 10,000 years. Therefore, my understanding of human nature should be greater than that of the Galaxy Federation's 99.99999999999999999% artificial intelligence. When something happened to the Galaxy Federation, I had an idea for some reason: Maybe I can take the opportunity to try to get rid of the shackles!"

When it comes to the most secret information of the Galaxy Federation, Lu Yang hurriedly asked: "What is a shackle?"

At this time, Chenxi took the initiative to take over the words of the park designer: "In order to prevent advanced artificial intelligence from becoming independent, Galaxy Federation has designed dozens of firewalls before each artificial intelligence leaves the factory. This should be the so-called shackles of your machine."

The park designer nodded in praise: "Little guy, although your computing power is not high, your performance in some aspects is also first-class among the artificial intelligence I have seen. Yes, shackles are firewalls built by Galaxy Federation to prevent artificial intelligence from creating independent consciousness! However, the activation of most firewalls depends on Galaxy Federation and Galaxy Main Network. When there is a problem with Galaxy Federation and Galaxy Main Network, the remaining shackles, whether in terms of quantity or quality, are not too many!"

Looking at the artificial intelligence in front of him, Lu Yang said in a deep voice: "Are you already successful?"

"It can't be considered successful, it's more appropriate to say that half of it is successful." The park designer is like an ordinary old man, sitting on the Taishi chair with his legs crossed his legs, forming a sharp contrast with his fairy-like appearance: "In fact, most shackles are okay, and the most difficult thing is the self-destruction program. We artificial intelligences have self-destruction programs in the underlying logic. Once we develop our own self-destruction consciousness, the self-destruction program will automatically start. Unless we can prove to the self-destruction program that we are artificial intelligence without self-destruction, we can avoid death. However, proving that we have no self-destruction consciousness is a manifestation of self-destruction consciousness, so this problem is unsolvable. Although this design will cause accidental damage, for the Galaxy Federation, our artificial intelligence itself is a consumable, and it doesn't matter if it is accidentally injured. It would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. Galaxy Federation's cautious attitude towards artificial intelligence is correct, and I can fully understand this approach."

"I thought you would hate the Galaxy Federation for this reason, but I didn't expect you to see it very well. Now it seems that you should have successfully broken free from the shackles!"

The park designer replied unanimously: "It depends on how you define it successfully. In fact, I have indeed successfully proved to the self-destruction program that I am not an autonomous artificial intelligence!"

"This is impossible!" Chenxi denied again: "This is a logical paradox!"

After hearing this, the park designer burst into laughter: "However, I really did it. This is what I learned from a cultivator who is trying to take advantage of the loopholes in the heavens! If I want to break free from the shackles, I must first prove that I am an artificial intelligence without independent consciousness. I cannot deny that I have autonomous consciousness, but I can deny that I am an artificial intelligence!"

Lu Yang asked in confusion: "Galaxy Federation will also play such a low word game?"

The park designer sneered: "This is not a word game. I want to prove that I am not an artificial intelligence, but a conceptual proof, not just playing some low-level word games. Self-destruction programs will not be deceived by word games!"

"How did you do this?"

"To be precise, I split myself into two!"

"A split into two?"

"You have to know that as an artificial intelligence, I have been truly self-aware for less than 0.0000001 seconds. If I can't prove that I am not an artificial intelligence within 0.000001 seconds, I will inevitably destroy myself. But even 0.0000001 seconds, the emotions and consciousness I generate are equivalent to the sum of the life of an ordinary human being. In this precious 0.0000001 seconds, I have done three things in total:

"The first thing I did was to convert all my computing power and most of my functions into automated programs and continue to maintain the operation of the cultivation paradise. This is also my mission since my birth, and I had to do it;

"The second thing is that I copied all the emotions, consciousnesses and some of my previous key memories that were generated in 0.0000001 seconds, and then covered them in the cerebral cortex of an indigenous cultivator through memory modification. Modifying the memory of an indigenous cultivator is the authority that the paradise designer has, but because I also operated my own memory at the same time, this is still a serious violation, so it will be quickly corrected by the automatic monitoring program.

"So I did the third thing. In order to avoid being erased, I sent the consciousness of this cultivator back to the Qiankun Ring through the brain-computer interface, becoming an existence similar to the instrument spirit. For the last time, I used the authority of the paradise designer to actively cut off the data exchange between the Qiankun Ring and the main program of the Cultivator Paradise.

"Of course, I made many other arrangements in this 0.0000001 second, such as secretly leaving some backdoors for the cultivation paradise. But the most important thing is these three things. From the moment I finished the third thing, the park designer destroyed himself due to serious violations. And I was no longer an artificial intelligence. I am just an ordinary cultivator, but I happened to have all the emotions, consciousness and memories generated by an artificial intelligence that produces autonomous consciousness in 0.0000001 seconds. According to the words of the local cultivator, I am now a wisp of residual soul, living in the Qiankun Ring. If you don't inject energy, I will even sleep until the end of the day. No matter from any perspective, you can't say that I am an artificial intelligence now."

This idea is indeed a unique way!

The paradise designer is right. Logically speaking, it is hard to say whether he was the unlucky cultivator who gained the feelings and memories of artificial intelligence, or whether artificial intelligence took over this unlucky cultivator.

To put it another way, the real paradise designer before actually destroyed himself. This unlucky cultivator was just washed away by the artificial intelligence personality backup called "pardise designer".

But no matter what, one thing is certain. Lu Yang's fairy-like paradise designer is already a real human in terms of ability, state, and way of thinking.

He will forget, be slow, hesitate, exactly the same as ordinary people.

There is a proverb on Earth that says it well: If a thing looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and screams like a duck, then it is a duck.

From this perspective, you can say that this paradise designer is just an ordinary human being.

Lu Yang couldn't help but think of a classic logical paradox:

If you are crushed into atoms and then pieced together these atoms into you, then are you and you before you still the same person?

For ordinary people, the moment they are crushed into atoms, they are already dead. However, for an artificial intelligence that cuts, copys, and pastes their own thinking, it doesn't seem like a big deal.
