Have you ever wondered why STEM needs to take home?

The reason is very obvious. It is because humans do not allow such things to exist. The plot has been described, and the law restricts this aspect very strictly. Originally, the case of the male protagonist and his wife was not investigated by anyone. Tiaozi expressed an attitude of ignoring it. Otherwise, careful investigation would be full of doubts.

But as long as it comes to cases of possible abuse of AI (about why the male protagonist can stand up), Tiaozi has two attitudes.

In other words, something like STEM is definitely not legal in their worldview. In order to save his own life, of course, he wants to control humans. The installed chip is just a client, the body is elsewhere.

As for the male protagonist and his wife, this role is sure to kill. Because if she doesn't die, even if the male protagonist is disabled, she will soon find out that there is something wrong with the STEM when she is engaged in a related industry.

After the success of the male lead experiment, I guess STEM will take over those presidents, politicians, and dignitaries, and ask them to change AI laws and social systems to ensure their own survival.

The name of STEM also means science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in English. This metaphor is too obvious.

And the original name of this work is also STEM, not Upgrade. I think the original name is better and more suitable for the situation. Later, I changed it because I was afraid of too much impact.

What the hell is a brain translation... not expressive...

    Wifeless repairman vs. Bo biochemical veteran, losing control of his body and fighting, cutting his head, cutting his face, breaking his brain, scurrying away with a see-through hand cannon, killing nano-sneezes... The final reversal was good. AI species chose this evolutionary method, perhaps because of the many insufficiencies in the real universe. The control factor is more interesting than the cyberspace constructed by the logic language.

    Although I guessed the ending, the story is pretty good. Basically, it can be regarded as a prequel to venonm.

Upgrade quotes

  • Stem: Grey's not here anymore, he's in a better place, in his mind, where he wants to be, I've taken over now. A fake world is a lot less painful than the real one. All I needed was for his mind to break, and he broke it.

  • Stem: May I point something out?

    Grey Trace: Hello? Okay, who's saying that?

    Stem: I am Stem. The system operating your body for you. Don't be afraid.

    Grey Trace: [Grey finally takes a breath, terrified] You fuckin' kidding me?

    Stem: [Deadpan] No.

    Grey Trace: I've lost my mind. I've gone insane. I'm fucking insane.

    Stem: Your medical records indicated you with a mild case of PTSD, but you are not "insane".

    Grey Trace: [Confused] So what? Y-you've just been there this whole time?

    Stem: Since the completion of the operation. I have been observing everything you've observed.

    Grey Trace: D-do you have to talk?

    Stem: If you want me to I do not have to

    Grey Trace: Okay, then yeah, don't talk.
