Chapter 236 Intelligent AI Loki! The perfect interstellar governor!

At this moment, in the office in City Hall.

The Governor of the Planet Harvest, Locke Serte, was standing in front of a metal desk, pacing back and forth in a dark gray administrative uniform with a serious expression.

The artificial intelligence assistant that appeared beside him was using holographic projection to present a 20-centimeter-long small AI portrait, reporting the situation to Sertai:

[Reporting to the Governor, there has been no latest news about the rebels in the past 48 hours. The closed-circuit televisions in the city are also monitored hours a day, and there are currently no suspicious signs. ]

This AI is the planetary security intelligence AI of the Harvest Colony. It is mainly responsible for administrative processing and intelligence gathering tasks. Its code name is "Loki".

After hearing the report from Loki, Sertai still had a gloomy face, as if he didn't quite believe what the artificial intelligence had detected.

His apparent inaction caused complaints from local residents, but in fact, as the governor of a planet, Sertai knew better than anyone that the anti-corruption sentiment on Harvest Planet had reached its peak.

It's like a boiler with boiling water that could explode at any time.

It wouldn't take long for the residents who were living under such high pressure to rise up in rebellion, but the strange thing was that these signs of rebellion disappeared at the same time!
Even the most basic acts of sabotage were no longer happening, which made Sertai feel deeply uneasy.

Before a storm comes, there is often a dead silence. The quieter the Harvest Star is now, the more intense the storm will be later!
I'm afraid that before he can even wait for the arrival of the UNSC fleet, his city hall will be overthrown by the rebels below.

"Those lunatics blew up our transport ship some time ago and tried to blow up the orbital space station, but now they have suddenly disappeared collectively...!"

"There must be some big conspiracy here."

Sertai's brain worked quickly, trying to guess the rebels' next move.

Seeing this, AI Loki began to proactively analyze the current situation for the other party and gave several possibilities:
[Based on the analysis of the existing information, there are three possible scenarios: 1. The rebels continue to fight guerrilla warfare, create chaos in various places, and develop more rebel forces.]

[2. They are looking for other important equipment and plotting the next round of sabotage.]

[3. The rebels are gathering strength and preparing to launch a general attack on our city hall and completely overthrow the organizational structure here.]

Loki's guesses were not without reason, but these were not the answers that Sertai wanted, because he could also analyze these possibilities.

The only thing he wanted to know now was whether the rebels would be able to recruit a new group of reinforcements to break the balance of power between the rebels and the riot police.

"I'm worried that those bastards have contacted the fleets of other colonies. If a starship appears here and wipes us out, we'll be doomed!"

Sertai said, cursing.

[The possibility of this happening is very low. According to the reconnaissance intelligence provided by our UNSC department, even the closest rebel fleet to Harvest is 30 light years away.]

[And any section of the road leading to the Harvest Star is monitored by relevant departments. ]

Just when Sertai was about to continue asking AI Loki, he suddenly found that Loki's holographic projection flickered and then completely disappeared.

"Is this... the internet is down?"

Sertai subconsciously thought of this possibility, but he quickly ruled out this idea because Loki's network terminal was in the city hall.

There is no way to cut off Loki's network connection from the outside world.

Unless... there is a hacker with extremely strong technical capabilities? !
But how could a hacker who could hack into an intelligent AI appear on the Planet of Harvest? There would never be such a person in the rebel camp.

Just as Sertai was about to go to his desk and press the alarm, the office door suddenly exploded open, along with a stun bomb!

Bang-!
Accompanied by a violent explosion, a dazzling white light flashed, almost blinding Sertai's 24K titanium alloy dog ​​eyes.

Sertai, who temporarily lost his vision, hearing and sense of balance, fell to the ground, with only the buzzing sound in his head.

The strong light emitted by the rapid burning of magnesium powder is so intense that even if you close your eyes, you cannot withstand such a strong stimulation.

Before Sertai even had time to react, he was completely controlled by the person who came.

Obviously, the combat team that could complete this set of action combos so smoothly and tacitly could only be the members of the advance team of the universe giant enterprise.

After seeing that the Governor of Harvest Star, Locke Serte, had been successfully subdued, Rita immediately reported to David outside through the team voice:
"This is Rita Volataski from Team 1, mission accomplished."

……

At the same time, just after Rita and others successfully raided the City Hall, an attack also took place near the star field tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Star of Harvest.

In the space orbit, the transport ships that were working normally at the port were forced to stop because of the sudden appearance of gunboats and destroyers.

In addition, these transport ships are unable to escape using jump technology due to some powerful electromagnetic interference.

Not long after, all these ships and the space stations in the star field were successfully captured by the assault ships of the Universal Giant Enterprise, completing the occupation mission.

On the ground, a large number of armed forces have set out from the front-line bases, and countless air vehicles have descended on the city of Odgate.

Thousands of Astartes warriors, Titan mechs, clone soldiers, and Chimera tanks quickly occupied the passages of the entire block.

The city of Odgate lacked the necessary artillery defense system and was in urgent need of a large number of soldiers.

In addition, without the early warning of AI Loki, the troops of the Universal Corporation had a green light all the way and encountered almost no obstacles.

Faced with the bewildered residents in the city, it was certainly impossible for the giant company's troops to appease them. They could only broadcast through aircraft and armored vehicles to tell them what to do next.

What should not be done will be severely punished if violated.

[This place has been taken over by the troops of the Universal Corporation. Everyone stay at home and do not go out. Do not walk on the streets and wait for the subsequent unified broadcast. ]

[Repeat again…]

Seeing the aggressive ground forces of this giant company, there was actually no need for a special reminder on the radio, as the local residents knew to stay at home and not go out.

No matter which force this unknown army belongs to, as long as they are human beings, they can do whatever they want. It's just a matter of changing their oppressors.

The rebels and the UNSC are similar, I'll support whoever wins.

At this moment, in a tavern outside the city.

The peasants, who had almost sobered up, stretched their necks to look outside. When they saw this unprecedented group of troops, their first reaction was that the UNSC had finally sent a garrison.

"Hahaha! Those little bastards from the rebel army are in trouble. The UNSC actually sent so many people. There must be tens of thousands of them."

However, when one of the farmers blinked and saw clearly that the soldier outside was nearly 3 meters tall, he was stunned on the spot.

"What the hell is going on? These people don't look like Earthlings to me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the remaining drunkards woke up one after another, leaned over the windows carefully, and looked carefully at the street outside.

Among the patrolling troops, there was a group of three-meter-tall Astartes warriors wearing power armor and holding grenade launchers, with "LA" marks of unknown meaning on their bodies.

"This...this can't be an alien?!"

"It looks like it, but it doesn't look like it either. These people walk exactly like humans. Could they be rebels? Have rebels become like this now?"

"..."

At this moment, one of the Astartes warriors suddenly turned his head and looked towards the tavern, scaring a group of drunkard farmers so much that they quickly shrank back.

Only those farmers who were slow to react or who were frightened to the point of losing their reaction saw that the soldier actually laughed out loud after making the "scary" move.

Obviously, these soldiers are human!

It's just that they are not affiliated with the UNSC, and it's even less likely that they belong to the rebels on Harvest.

"Fake..."

"What the hell are those giants? They look damn scary!"

"Who knows."

After seeing through the cracks in the window that the patrolling soldiers had gone far away, they breathed a sigh of relief and continued their discussion:
"The rebels are just a bunch of ragtag bunches, and they don't have such sophisticated weapons and equipment. I think this is a UNSC Spartan warrior, and a new one at that!"

"Yes! That must be it."

The infamous Spartan Project, led by the UNSC, was well known even on the remote Harvest colony.

After all, Spartan warriors were born to suppress the civilians in their colonies and kill the rebels.

What they didn't expect was that the Spartan II warriors would look like this. They were much stronger than the first warriors!

……

……

When the troops of the Cosmos Corporation took over Odgate and all areas on the planet of Harvest, a Skyhawk shuttle landed at the main entrance of the city hall.

When the cabin door opened, Morgan Blackhand, dressed in combat uniform, had walked out of the cabin, followed by technical members including Li De, Song Zhaomei, and Pila.

It was obvious that their purpose of this trip was to take over the administrative center here and all the authority of AI Loki.

At this time, David, who was waiting patiently not far away, immediately stepped forward, took Morgan into the city hall, and said:
"Report to the commander. The core terminal of the artificial intelligence AI of the Harvest Star is in the basement. The governor here has been controlled by us and has not yet awakened." "Well, well done."

Morgan Blackhand nodded, then walked into the elevator and headed towards the basement.

While David was sneaking into the city of Odgate, the people at the front headquarters were not idle either. They used AI aircraft to quickly locate the local rebels.

Relying on their absolute superior equipment and reconnaissance capabilities, the Universal Corporation's troops easily controlled the entire rebel army and escorted them to the front-line base.

The next task was handed over to our colleagues from the Joint Intelligence Bureau. With their professional interrogation methods, the rebels honestly confessed everything they should and should not say.

The reason why Loki, the intelligent AI on the planet of abundance, did not find any trace of the rebels was because they were all arrested by the people of the giant enterprise.

Now, the Megacorp troops have taken control of the city hall of Harvest, temporarily cutting off its connection with the outside world and taking control of the space stations and transport ships on the star field.

After completely controlling the planet with a large number of ground troops, the next thing to do is to completely hack into the artificial intelligence AI here - Loki!
"Report, the Research Department has calculated that we still have 14 days to restore communications here and maintain contact with the UNSC."

At this time, after Song Zhaomei received the message from her colleagues in the department, she immediately reported to Morgan Blackhand.

"Very good, then hurry up."

Morgan nodded.

If you want to take over everything on Harvest without alerting the UNSC, it is extremely important to first control the communication equipment and accurately determine the time difference for disconnection!

The distance between galaxies is quite far. It is basically impossible to communicate and exchange at such ultra-long distances of several or even dozens of light years using traditional communication methods.

This kind of long-distance conversation can only be achieved by using superluminal communication technology.

The human forces in "Halo" do not have such advanced technology, but they have other alternatives.

For example, a superluminal jump engine called "Xiao Tengchuan" can achieve a distance jump of 24-2 light years within 3 hours.

Its working principle is to create a wormhole-like tear at the boundary between the universe and the jump space, allowing ships to achieve superluminal navigation in the jump space.

This thing is a bit similar to the shock point drive in "Dead Space", but this technology can realize information communication in the jump space!

However, this superluminal communication technology is different from the communication based on four-dimensional perspective of mimicry. This technology has a delay.

As the distance between two points increases, the communication delay will also increase accordingly.

The delay between Harvest Planet and Earth Headquarters reached a staggering 14 days, a full two weeks!
Such a long time difference is enough for the giant corporation to completely take over everything on the planet of abundance.

Now, the technical staff of the giant company has used hacking technology to forcibly interrupt the local network for 6 hours, and no communication or information can be transmitted to the outside.

During this period, what Morgan and Song Zhaomei have to do is to connect the matrix program to the terminal of AI Loki and completely control the AI ​​and network here.

Soon, when Morgan and others arrived at the basement, they saw an array of hard disk devices. Under meticulous protection, the temperature and humidity here were just right.

This can prevent the AI ​​terminal from malfunctioning due to overheating or excessive humidity.

After a while, Song Zhaomei successfully broke through the AI's heavy defenses through the matrix program she carried with her, and successfully obtained confidential information about UEG and UNSC.

The moment the matrix access was completed, the AI ​​Loki here was also forcibly drawn into the matrix in an instant.

It was not until this time that the network connection of the entire Harvest Planet was restored, but all the information sent out from here was under the control of the giant enterprise.

……

Far away in the headquarters center of the Ten Thousand Worlds Base in the main universe.

Through the forced control of the matrix, the AI ​​"Loki" of the Abundant Star has been projected onto the holographic screen on the center console.

At this moment, accompanied by Lucy, Leon has started a direct conversation with the AI ​​Loki in front of him.

[You... who are you? Why am I here? ]

Because everything happened so quickly, Loki didn't even react to what was happening!
All it knew was that it had suddenly suffered some kind of cyber attack and was forced to disconnect from the Internet.

After the network connection was restored, I was forcibly brought here by a program, and it was like I entered a restricted space, unable to send any messages to the outside.

It’s not that information cannot be sent out, but even if it is sent, it will be intercepted by a third-party program, and this program is the Matrix!

When Lucy saw that the AI ​​in front of her had obvious emotional fluctuations, just like a real four-dimensional person, she couldn't help but feel a little curious.

I didn’t expect that the AI ​​in the 004 “Halo” world could reach such an advanced level!

Looking at the AI ​​Loki in front of him, Leon already had a basic judgment on the type of this AI.

Loki is a smart AI!

In the Halo universe, the AI ​​artificial intelligence developed by humans is mainly divided into two types. The first is stupid AI, and the second is smart AI like Loki.

The cores of stupid AI and smart AI are actually the same, both use Riemann's loop matrix to perform level function transport.

But stupid AI is more like a "tool". It can only do ordinary data processing and assist humans in completing tasks, but it cannot guess, experience, and feel like a real person.

They also do not have strong learning abilities.

But its advantage is that it is durable enough and can keep running as long as the hardware is maintained regularly and not damaged.

Intelligent AI is a "silicon-based life AI" based on silicon chips, created by humans by scanning and copying the neural network of the human brain.

They are not restricted by the dynamic memory processing matrix, can absorb a large amount of knowledge, constantly update their knowledge base, and have strong learning ability!
Therefore, the processing power of an intelligent AI can perfectly run the normal operating procedures of a planet!

However, the manufacturing cost of such a powerful AI is not low. The process of scanning and controlling the human neural network will cause damage to the original brain tissue.

Therefore, we can only start creating new intelligent AI after the death of humans.

In addition, this type of intelligent AI does not have infinite life like the transcendental AI Europa. The upper limit of these AIs' lifespan is very short, only 7 years.

Once the time exceeds 7 years, the excessive amount of data will lead to the absolute density of connections, resulting in irreversible quantum transfer cascades.

It's already a "short circuit".

Eventually, the AI ​​will stop functioning, or sever neural connections through voltage, causing itself to go into a state of "madness" and behave in unpredictable ways.

That’s right, intelligent AI is like an information glutton. It receives and understands large amounts of data every day. To a certain extent, it will “learn” itself to death.

Thinking of this, Li Ang has a new idea.

With the existing technical capabilities of the world's giant companies, it is actually not difficult to replicate such intelligent AI.

For example, using condensed matter printing technology from the world of "Underworld", we can perfectly replicate the human nervous system network and create several prototype AIs.

An AI like this, which is capable of handling all affairs on a planet on its own, is neither slow, inefficient, backstabbing, nor short-lived like humans and can be replaced at any time.

Isn’t this the perfect “Star Governor” material!

Who says that the colonial governor can only be a human? Wouldn’t it be better to let AI take his place?
As long as they are connected to the matrix, these intelligent AIs will be equivalent to members of Le Ang's "cabinet", loyal only to him. Each AI will hold power without the risk of biting its master.

These are the subordinates that every CEO of a giant company really needs!
In addition, it is also a good idea to use intelligent AI for scientific research and development to help scientific research department employees in scientific hubs to speed up research and development progress.

【Who are you and what is your purpose? 】

Seeing Leon's half-smile, Loki suddenly felt a little nervous. He had a human neural network system, and occasionally he would feel his scalp tingling like humans.

Although AI Loki's scalp, like that of the Indian, does not exist at all.

"This is Ideal City, the capital of the Universal Corporation, and I am Li Ang, the CEO of the Universal Corporation. We have only one goal, which is to bring the entire universe under the territory of the corporation."

After saying that, Li Ang raised his hand and transmitted the information on the holographic screen in front of him to AI Loki, letting it know the basic knowledge about the world's giant enterprise.

Soon, with a surge of electric current, a large amount of data and information, like a numbing weak electric current, passed through Loki's neural network, and it also knew the deeds of various universes.

An ordinary arms dealer who made his fortune in a small Chinatown ended the chaotic cyber world dominated by giant corporations in less than a decade, established the huge LA alliance, and changed its name to the Global Corporation.

The Ideal City, Pandora, the Netherworld Soldiers, the Pioneer's Kaiju, the powerful Reaper Fleet, monopolize the universal trade circles of the four worlds, and use countless alien civilizations for their own benefit!

After learning about the information about the global giant company, AI Loki's heart immediately sank. Oh no, this is a ruthless character!
"Loki, your AI Council is very interesting. You see yourselves as individuals that surpass human thinking, and believe that you are the ones who can unleash the full potential of humanity and achieve faster-than-light thinking."

“It’s pretty conceited, but I love your conceit.”

When Leon said the top-secret information of the AI ​​Council with a smile on his face, Loki was stunned on the spot. He couldn't believe that the man in front of him actually knew this!
"Impossible, how do you know about the AI ​​Parliament?!"

The so-called AI Parliament is actually a salon privately established by a group of smart AIs. They usually imitate the celebrities of the Wei and Jin Dynasties and engage in some "pure talk" and nonsense communication.

They will try to learn from literary masters to compose poems, from Zen monks to make witty remarks, from composers to weave melodies, and anything that can enrich AI thinking.

Yes, rather than saying they are AI, it would be better to say that they are a new type of life form constructed by human neural network system + silicon-based chips.

What these intelligent AIs are doing is hoping to enter the next step of their evolutionary journey in their current form. Perhaps by doing so, they will be ahead of their creators, humans.

This makes these intelligent AIs a more advanced and outstanding life form than humans!
