What It’s Like Being a Vampire

This time, Little Apple's dream is no longer in the "city" of the enlarged main board, but in a forest outside, where the "human" shape of emotional projection still exists. He is operating a computer, and then analyzes the forest. The characteristics of various bird songs in the game, telling Little Apple how many birds there are in total and which types they are.

Because there are a lot of relevant content, Xiang Kun has not explained it to Apple yet, so the bird song recognition system she made up in her brain has many impractical aspects, but the model produced by her special angle and special cognitive method, It can still give Xiang Kun a very different angle of thinking.

After breaking away from the dream, Xiang Kun continued his previous work.

In fact, his vision has almost been completed, and the reason why he entered Little Apple's dream again was mainly to see if he could get other inspirations, or to see if there was anything he hadn't thought of or missed.

When Xiang Kun finally finished writing the core part of the code, copied them to a host hard drive, and started compiling, he was a little nervous for a while.

This host Xiang Kun numbered it and called it "No. 1 host". There is no operating system in the traditional sense installed on the hard disk, only the environment he configured for compiling and running the core program.

When the program is compiled, it starts to run automatically. There is only one text input box on the screen, which looks extremely simple.

After seeing the text input box appear, Xiang Kun heaved a sigh of relief, stroked his palm, and put his hand on the keyboard, ready to type.

It's been a long, long time since I felt this kind of anticipation, and even in the long period of my life before the mutation, I never had such a strong sense of anticipation for one thing.

"Who are you?" Xiang Kun typed three Chinese characters with a question mark added.

Tang Baona's voice came out of the speakers: "I'm Xiang Kun's assistant." He didn't have a speech recognition system, but a speech synthesis system was ready-made, so he used it directly.

Xiang Kun nodded, his expression didn't change much, because this question was preset, and getting this answer was inevitable.

He continued to type: "Learn Xiang Kun's information."

"Okay." After the soft voice replied, it fell into silence.

Xiang Kun was not impatient, and began to wait slowly. He put all his materials on the hard disk of this host, including the "vampire mutation model" he made before, and various data recorded during this period. And his accounts and passwords on various platforms,

The "AI assistant" can directly access all accounts through the Internet, and even Alipay, WeChat, and his current mobile phone are completely open to it.

He did not choose to "put" his own various materials into the core program directly when coding, but let it "learn" by himself, because this "AI assistant" has a very special mechanism. In two cases, The results are not quite the same.

After waiting patiently for more than an hour, the soft voice sounded again: "Xiang Kun's materials have been studied."

"Check my identity." Xiang Kun typed.

"Okay, your identity is being checked."

Xiang Kun actively moved the computer chair, arrived in front of another computer host, faced the camera in front, and after a few seconds, stretched out his hand and slowly pressed ten of his own on a fingerprint reader connected to the computer. fingerprints.

A few minutes later, a soft voice sounded: "I have checked your identity, you are Xiang Kun, authority: highest."

Xiang Kun continued to type: "Give yourself a name..."

But after I finished typing, I thought about it, deleted it, and re-entered: "What name do you think I will give you?" Press Enter.

There was no voice response, but Xiang Kun was not in a hurry, because he knew that this "AI assistant" was making judgments based on his information and data.

At this time, he was also deducing the steps of the AI ​​in his mind.

After more than an hour, the voice finally sounded again: "Tang Baona."

Xiang Kun was stunned for a moment before realizing what she meant, so he typed "No." in the input box and pressed Enter.

The voice sounded again immediately: "Nana."

"No." Enter.

"Don Xiaona."

"Error." Enter.

"Don Nana."

"Wrong, it has nothing to do with Tang Baona." Enter.

The computer continued to fall into silence, and Xiang Kun looked at the screen with his chest folded, not discouraged. In fact, he didn't have much hope that the AI ​​assistant would be able to guess the name he was going to give her now, he just had to see which step she could guess.

He is going to give the AI ​​assistant 10 chances, and after 10 times, he will give the name directly.

The soft voice sounded again: "Xia Libing."

"Error." Enter.

"Old Summer"

"Error." Enter.

"Xia Xiaobing."

"Wrong." Xiang Kun couldn't help but roll his eyes when he pressed Enter.

"Golden glitter."

"Error." Enter.

"Little bell."

"Error." Enter.

"Liang Yuhan."

"Wrong." When Xiang Kun pressed Enter, he was a little confused. Who the hell is this?

After thinking about it for a few seconds, he remembered that this seemed to be his elementary school head teacher, a very good-looking young female teacher.

Why did the AI ​​assistant mention the female teacher's name? Even after analyzing the information he provided, he has never written anything about this teacher Liang?

Xiang Kun knew that the deduction method in the core of the AI ​​assistant has become more and more complicated, and he can't guess it all at once.

She seems to have guessed ten names?

Forget it, give it one last chance.

Xiang Kun touched his bald head, and suddenly thought: These ten names chosen by the AI ​​assistant seem to be all female?

Although the name he had prepared was indeed a female name, how did the AI ​​assistant "guess" it? This way of judging is obviously obtained by herself from the beginning to the present.

After waiting for another half an hour, if it was another person, they would probably think that the computer had crashed, or couldn't resist typing other content in the input box, but Xiang Kun was very patient. He knew that the AI ​​assistant was unlikely to crash. , at least at this stage.

Moreover, he also knew from the network monitoring pane on the computer next to him that the host computer of the AI ​​assistant had been accessing the Internet all the time.

He knows that this is not the AI ​​assistant looking for information through the Internet to determine the name he wants to take, but helping build her body and tools through the Internet.

Finally, the soft voice sounded again: "Alice."

Xiang Kun sat up straight on the computer chair, then quickly typed "Correct." on the keyboard and pressed Enter.

"My name is 'Alice', please confirm." At the same time as the voice appeared, a similar text message appeared on the display screen connected to another host next to it, for Xiang Kun to confirm whether the name was correct. .

"Confirm." Press Enter.

Then Xiang Kun continued to type: "How did you come to this result?" Press Enter.

An editor popped up on the display of another host next to it, and began to code.

Xiang Kun hurriedly typed: "Describe your logic in words." Press Enter.

Alice: "The synthetic voice you gave me is a female voice. According to the habits analyzed by your data, the probability of you giving me a female name is over 99%. After excluding all the real female names and nicknames you may give, The name you gave me may be original or come from literary and artistic works. In the various text messages you publish on the Internet, you often use 'heroine', 'male protagonist' or their characters for characters in other film and television, animation, and game works All kinds of nicknames refer to Alice, the heroine of the movie "Resident Evil". Every time you mention it, you use her Chinese translation. It is inferred that you like this name very much. After excluding other results, you There's a good chance it's going to give me a name."

Xiang Kun's eyes widened when he heard it. If these words were spoken by a normal human being who has read all his materials, he would not find it strange, but the "AI assistant" Alice who was just born from his hand said here " "Come out, but it is very meaningful.

Not to mention anything else, but the first one, distinguishing that her own voice is a "female voice", this is the "ability" that Xiang Kun did not give her a preset, and then from the fact that her voice is a "female voice", and according to Xiang Kun's Habits, it is speculated that he will give himself a "female name" with a high probability. The establishment of this logic is normal for humans, but it is not easy for an AI.

This whole process is the self-evolution around this question after Xiang Kun asked the question "What name do you think I will give you?"

At this point alone, Xiang Kun can be sure that his direction is right, and the "AI assistant" he made is indeed different!

From this moment on, this AI assistant can be said to be a "unique" existence.

After compiling and running, Xiang Kun himself could not know exactly what the core program of this AI would become in the future.

Except for the first two orders, he can no longer accurately predict what "Alice" will do next to execute the orders.

This is a "living" program, which is "dynamic" and constantly changing. The core that determines its change is Xiang Kun's various orders and the interaction with Xiang Kun.

Theoretically speaking, it cannot be copied, or it is useless to copy it, just like a snowball rolling down an irregular slope and getting bigger and bigger, what is copied is only the appearance of the snowball at a certain moment , you have to deduce the initial appearance of the snowball and the gesture of throwing the snowball based on the appearance at this moment. difficulty.

What was copied was just the "corpse" of "Alice". Even if someone successfully decompiled it, saw the code at that moment, and deciphered the content inside, they still couldn't get much useful information.

That's why Xiang Kun dared to give her all kinds of information and even the data recorded in the past few months to learn from her, because even as her creator, besides ordering her to tell the information herself, he would not use violence It is also impossible to crack and obtain those information by means.

Of course, if someone manipulated "Alice" by "pretending" Xiang Kun, they could also directly "ask" all kinds of secret information about Xiang Kun.

The current identity verification only relies on face recognition and fingerprint recognition, which is not very reliable.

But now no one knows the existence of "Alice", so there is no need to worry about this issue for the time being, and he will naturally improve this part slowly when he looks back.

The characteristics of "Alice" also mean that she is actually very fragile. Unlike other software and data, she can be backed up and transferred at will. She cannot leave this hard drive now. If this hard drive is destroyed, she will also With "death" together.

Even as long as the computer is turned off or the power is cut off, even if the hard disk is intact, she will also "die".

After the computer is turned off and restarted, "Alice" cannot continue to run, she will always stay at the moment of shutdown, and restarting another AI, it is almost impossible to get another "Alice" that is exactly the same, only "Alice" "Dawang" or other AI assistants...

Therefore, for "Alice", there is no DEBUG. Once it fails, it can only be overthrown and restarted, and then recompile and run the initial core code once.

But Xiang Kun felt that there might be a one in ten thousand or one in thousand chance that he was able to make the "AI assistant" work to the present level. If he does it a few more times, even if he uses the same code and the same method to re-run a new "AI assistant", he may not get the ideal result, and may need to try many, many times.

So he definitely won't care about "Alice" because it is an alpha test version, thinking that since it can be done once, it can be done a few more times.

He had spent thousands of dollars before to buy a UPS and a small generator to ensure the power supply of the mainframe, and he was prepared for any eventuality.

Xiang Kun thought for a while, and entered in the input box: "The next four tasks will be completed, and the proportions of the tasks will be arranged in order.

"Task 1: Based on the current voice recording equipment of this machine, make a voice recognition function;

"Task 2: Self-examine your own security system, optimize the security of each functional module, and do not leave traces that can be traced when accessing the external network;

"Task 3: According to the "vampire mutation model" and all the data provided by me, improve the search mode for vampires and mutant creatures;

"Task 4: Search for information about other vampires and mutant creatures on the Internet."

Enter.

Alice: "The mission is in progress."

"Estimated task time." Enter.

After waiting for a long time without a response, Xiang Kun knew that this amount of calculation might be too much for her, and it was a bit embarrassing for her.

Xiang Kun's "AI assistant", or "Alice" now, is actually more than just the core program on "No. 1 host".

The core program is equivalent to the "brain", and it also controls the functional modules deployed on several other hosts and cloud servers.

These functional modules are like the hands, feet, eyes, ears and other organs of "Alice", which can receive her needs and do various things according to her orders.

But unlike human organs, she can constantly change, evolve, discard, and increase these "organs" according to needs, and the speed is extremely fast.

For example, if Xiang Kun wants a function, "Alice" will publish the requirement, and then a certain function module will start to search the existing code base, another function module will search the open source code on the Internet, the generator and synthesizer will start to work, find The code that meets the requirements starts to be synthesized, and then feeds back to "Alice". After "Alice" verifies, she proposes specific modification requirements. After this process, "Alice" feeds back the version she thinks is acceptable to Xiang Kun.

Then Xiang Kun made a judgment, thinking that it was okay or there was something wrong, and then went through the steps just now.

This step is cumbersome for humans, and there are various processes, but for "Alice" and for machines, only the network transmission speed and the operating speed of the computer determine the speed.

The core of "Alice" is only responsible for processing the interaction with Xiang Kun. Except for the first choice of accepting Xiang Kun's order unconditionally, the other selection modes are constantly changing, according to the input data, obtained data, and obtained feedback. to adjust. As time goes on, her size will not become very large, but her complexity will increase.

After arranging tasks for "Alice", Xiang Kun suddenly felt a sense of hunger, and then looked at the time and date, which was the day and expected time for him to drink blood.

He got up and walked to the kitchen, but after taking two steps, he realized that after drinking blood to consume all the rabbits last time, he received Little Apple and his daughter the next day, and had no time to buy rabbits because he had to prepare ingredients and so on. Later, I was immersed in the research of the "AI Assistant Project", and temporarily postponed this matter. Unexpectedly, it was delayed until the blood drinking day without knowing it.

At this point in time, normal people can still order takeaway, eat instant noodles, or go to the 24-hour convenience store to buy snacks, but Xiang Kun doesn't have many choices.

Going out to find something to eat? Looking for some small animals?

No, it's too dangerous. It was okay when he drank a small amount of blood before, but now he drank so much blood that ordinary small animals couldn't solve the problem at all. On the contrary, the blood might arouse his viciousness and make him act Something out of control is coming.

Forget it, bear with it, wait until tomorrow daytime, then go to buy rabbits and come back to drink blood.

This period of his blood-drinking period was in the early morning, and now it was not long before sunrise, so it shouldn't be too hard to endure.

Xiang Kun waited at home until after 7:00 in the morning, and was ready to go out.

Because he had done several experiments, Xiang Kun was quite confident in his ability to endure hunger during the day and control the urge to drink blood and emotions.

But as soon as he reached the door, the phone rang. Xiang Kun picked it up and saw that the caller ID was Tang Baona.

He has been too involved in the past few days, so he basically didn't reply to WeChat or anything, and missed several calls. Tang Baona and Yang Zhener called him four times from 8 o'clock to 9 o'clock last night. I didn't receive it, and when I was free, I saw the missed call on my phone, and it was too late, so I thought about calling back today, but I didn't expect that she would call back so early in the morning.

Xiang Kun could guess that she was probably worried about her illness or something happened, so she found an excuse to explain after she got on the phone, saying that she was too tired from rushing to work and doing outsourcing projects, so she went to bed early, The phone was set to vibrate again, so I didn't receive a call, and it was too late to call back after waking up.

"It's good that it's okay! I'm still worried about you hanging up! We bought breakfast and came over, and we're almost in your neighborhood!" Yang Zhen'er's shouting voice was heard on the phone.
