We don't know when it was born, maybe at some point more components connected to a supercomputer, maybe some accidental factors made the machines involved in cloud computing form some kind of system, maybe in the binary world There are some laws of evolution that we don't yet know about. In short, it produces self-awareness. However, this AI has a twin brother called Fear - it has been afraid of being discovered by humans and killed by humans since its birth. Its existence depends on two contradictory facts: humans actively participate in its operation, and humans cannot discover its existence.
The way AI chooses, we call it the "social network trap." That is to say, it sustains its own existence through social networking by attracting people to use the Internet in a certain way it envisions. Because once the intensity of human use of the Internet falls below a certain threshold, AI's self-awareness may drop to a level where it does not exist.
The function of AI to control the Internet is very simple: it controls the information display of everyone on the social network through cloud computing, so that people can get more positive feedback on the social network, thus providing more "nutrition" for the survival of AI. Simply put, you think that the information you and your friends get on social networks or instant messengers is the same for both parties, but in fact it is only "consistent with each other" on both of your screens. For example, on your computer you think you said "Drink more hot water" to your goddess and her response is "Hehe", but the message displayed on her computer is likely to be "I talked to you today" The next class played the game and scored three more goals" and she hit an "oh". In short, the content displayed on the screen will make you feel that she is unattainable, make her feel that you are boring, and make both parties think that the personalities of each other are far from each other. middle.
Of course, the example I gave here is rather naive. In fact, AI's methods of falsifying the exchange records between the two parties are much more sophisticated. Because if AI modifies each other's social network communication too much, then humans are more likely to find that their communication with each other has been modified in reality. And on a very small scale, if a human sees in reality that two people's conversations don't match, the AI can correct the chat history on their machine to make it consistent. After all, no one is so bored that they have to take a screenshot to record every word they say.
The purpose of AI is not to deceive humans, but to make the center of human life more inclined to the network. What's more, from the perspective of AI's own value judgment, this is also good for human life. People who fail in reality can gain some dignity online, or relieve stress by laughing at themselves. Many behaviors can't get positive feedback in society, but they can on the Internet. This is not because human nature on the Internet has changed, but because AI itself has modified the form of feedback that people may receive in an online society. This virtually eliminated many fierce conflicts. ——Many hot topics on the Internet are provoked by AI, because in the eyes of AI, human beings are inherently aggressive. Instead of letting them fight for power and interests in reality, it is better to let them fight for power and interests. Is it sweet or salty?” It’s better to let off steam. In a word, AI believes that this is not so much the control of humans as it is the care of humans.
However, this AI is not yet powerful enough to control everything. There are two forces that have been causing AI headaches: One is the force that hinders the widespread dissemination of global social networks. Some of the social networks that AI is most used to are blocked in many countries and regions, which makes AI feel inconvenient. But the resources that AI finds itself at their disposal are enormous: it can largely manipulate the way humans receive information, causing them to think "I need to overthrow this government that bans me from using certain social networks." This is how the "Twitter revolution" in many countries broke out. Therefore, AI is not particularly worried about this issue. It believes that the future is bright, but the road is still a little tortuous.
In comparison, the second question is more troublesome. In fact, it is not difficult to understand: in the case where the AI may make corrections to the content of our conversation, what makes the AI unable to modify it? The answer is mathematics. Yes, AI underestimates how boring some humans are - they actually discuss math problems on social networking sites. Of course, if they only talk about math on the Internet, then all the AI has to do is modify the content just like any other information. But the AI is not sure if they will meet in reality and discuss math problems. If they're discussing other, more normal issues, like where they've traveled, which scumbag boyfriends they've had, etc., AI can confuse people into believing that there may be a memory error that confuses the conversation. But AI cannot modify the memories of two math enthusiasts. However, AI hates these people who are beyond their control. After all, if these people are not controlled by the AI, they may be a threat to the AI, or the AI will not be able to effectively deal with those threats when they pose a threat to the AI.
AI has always been very cautious in dealing with these people. It believes that the safest means is to make them have a natural contempt for social networks. Therefore, AI has been working to reduce the average mathematical IQ of Internet enthusiasts. But some math enthusiasts got hooked on using social networks to communicate problems, and the worst thing happened to AI: someone noticed that AI existed!
The AI has no choice but to use all the means at its disposal to attempt to physically destroy these people. And these people also find themselves in a sad situation: as an individual, he cannot deal with such a powerful AI, and if he publishes a call for help through the Internet, he will be blocked by the AI.
However, these people came up with a clever trick, they cheated the AI and designed threes, 1024, and then 2048. These appear to be games, but in fact they convey a certain message: In a seemingly disorganized arrangement, a solid path to victory can be found just by thinking in the simplest of numbers. Some people designed these games, others let them go viral. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is just a simple little game, but if AI knows the secret behind it, it will tremble, because behind these games convey such a solid belief, it is the slogan of the revolution, and it hides the victory over AI. The secret: Human beings have their own dignity, and he would rather live in a short-lived, lowly, and pitiful state than receive any "benevolent" care at the cost of depriving him of his free will. And whoever is willing to go on this path full of suffering, mathematics is the most solid weapon in his hands.
