It was a humble age without Google, Windows, mobile phones, and Playstation.
From the details of the story, we can see that the original author has a very insightful understanding of the deep-level philosophy in the field of computer artificial intelligence-saying "Philosophy" because it has gone beyond the scope of "Science". ——Military computers use self-learning artificial intelligence to conduct virtual experiments of "World War", but this artificial intelligence program algorithm has major bugs (vulnerabilities)-it stubbornly believes that war must be divided into "wins and loses" in principle ——And this strategic thinking of “you must distinguish between the winners and the losers” is contrary to the display of the world where war is a “zero-sum game”—that is, although this artificial intelligence is smart, it cannot understand the existence of a “tie”.
In the end, a romantic "Tic-Tac-Toe" computer game finally made the artificial intelligence realize the existence of "tie"-it exhausted every step of the algorithm, but finally found that it was impossible to distinguish the winner or loser anyway. Evenly matched. In this way, artificial intelligence finally gave up the fuse that triggered the world war and fell silent.
If you don't understand some basic principles of computer artificial intelligence, you can't make such an excellent screenwriter.
However, if I were the chief in the play, my emergency strategy would be very simple-directly power off the computer equipped with artificial intelligence, or cut off the network, and you can easily resolve the crisis-of course, there is no drama. Yes, although very practical.
Therefore, truth and reality are two different things. Although "war" is a "zero-sum game", the chess pieces in reality will never give up, never compromise, never give in. What's sadder is that they never doubt everything in front of them. So the war continued and the chess game continued.
——"The tie" is sometimes just an idealistic hope, although we do not give up hope.
