2. Heavy news

According to the initial design of scientists from the Future Science and Technology Foundation, various intelligent machinery can be manufactured and the intelligent machinery center that injects preset emotional templates and thinking circuits into the intelligent machinery is an absolute behemoth.

Its initial design was twice as large as the dock built by S.H.E.L.D. for the upcoming command-type aerospace mothership.

However, as more and more smart people use outstanding wisdom to improve and rest, the intelligent center, that is, the intelligent tower, has been established, and its area is greatly reduced.

This is also due to a series of advanced technologies contributed by Wakanda, which disguised as a backward agricultural country, but in fact, technology is ahead of the world for at least 150 years.

The intelligent tower itself is the main body of the intelligent machinery center. The outside of this silver-gray tower up to 50 meters is reinforced with military-level concrete, but the internal body is actually shaped by steel. After using Cybertron Technology, in extreme cases, the steel tower itself can also be moved or even deformed.

Of course, it is definitely not as convenient as the Cybertron robot transforms. This is just a backup function. In most cases, the tower will not move.

At this time, after Tony pressed the start button, the observation windows around the central control room were opened in unison, revealing the super-large mechanical modules that were starting to operate around. Due to the packaging technology, laymen like Merlin and Pierce could not understand the operation process of this system.

They could only see some large metal equipment moving in the ring-shaped tracks inside the tower. Under the control of artificial intelligence named "Architect", the metal modules were constantly put into the up and down tracks in a very precise way, and then sent into the workstation below the ground, with several holographic projections placed above the observation room.

In those projections, a complete fully automatic production line is started, the metal modules sent down are quickly decomposed, and then under the control of those dazzling robotic arms, the steel is cut and shaped into a preset shape, followed by countless standard industrial parts being placed in the metal module.

Merlin can see that the arms, torso, legs, and head of the intelligent machinery are shaped. In the operation of the assembly line, data modules are placed in the intelligent machinery torso, just like making a car, full of industrial beauty.

But this is just the most basic production process. This process is completely undifficultivated even under the technological level a few years ago. The real difficulty is the part after assembly.

There were whispers in the observation room, which seemed to be scientists discussing the advantages and disadvantages of this manufacturing system.

“'Wisdom Enlightenment', we call the last step this.”

Around Merlin, Dr. Banner, who later participated in the compilation and testing of the data program of the Intelligent Machinery Center, whispered to Merlin:

"After the body of the intelligent machine is assembled, it will be sent to the 'enlightenment center' of the intelligent tower, where it is enlightened and awakened. Although we have solved most of the problems, to be honest, this system is still not perfect."

“How to say it?”

Merlin asked in a low voice, and Banner explained:

"The intelligent machinery we made can reach 100% similarity in appearance and even the internal structure can reach exactly similarity, but we still cannot understand the working principle of the energy source of fire. I mean, at least in terms of energy, our intelligent machinery and real intelligent machinery are still different."

Banner's eyes shone with a strong desire for knowledge, he said:

"I can't understand how those naturally activated smart machines can achieve self-recharge, but they can do it for a long time without charging, and only then will start to actively seek external energy until the energy in the body decreases. Our smart machines cannot do it. They must receive charging every 4 hours."

"If its activity frequency is very high... this time will be greatly shortened. In theory, every two years, we need to replace the internal power supply for the smart machine."

Banner said:

"This shows that our smart machines are not yet able to reach the original level."

"It doesn't matter."

Merlin shook his head, and he watched the assembled intelligent machine on the projection being sent into a thing similar to the experimental cabin, and he said to Banner:

"As long as people don't doubt the difference between smart machines and smart machines, it means we have succeeded."

"Dr. Banner, you have to understand that we don't need to make 'real' smart machines, we don't need... We just want people to think that smart machines are made by humans, that's enough."

"Well, that's right."

Dr. Banner nodded and said:

"Humans are always full of preference for their creations and are full of vigilance against foreign creatures... This kind of guidance is indeed necessary."

"This means you are also a truly wise person, Banner."

Merlin reached out to hold Banner's shoulder, he said:

“Many people think we are doing bad things.”

"Look, it's about to 'awake'."

Banner laughed twice, took a sip of wine and said to Merlin:

"I don't know what name it will give itself."

"Oh? Will they still name themselves?"

Merlin said in surprise:

"I thought you would give them names on their own initiative."

“They have wisdom, too, Merlin.”

Banner shrugged:

“If we want them to be integrated into human society in the future, then we must respect their wisdom from now on…”

The moment Banner finished speaking, in the projection in front of everyone's eyes, the creature-like thing slowly opened, and the silver-gray intelligent machine with anthropomorphic appearance came out of it.

Everyone was watching it.

It was like a human who had just woken up from sleep. It stood on the ground in front of the enlightenment center. It looked around in a daze, then raised its hand, placed it in front of it, moving its five fingers. Although there was no expression on its mechanical face, everyone could feel the at a loss.

In the observation room, Tony handed a microphone to Pierce, the chairman of the World Security Council, the old man with the highest status present, and he also looked at the projection in front of him. He put the microphone at his mouth, and he asked:

"Child, what's your name?"

The newly born artificial intelligence machine suddenly raised its head, as if curious about where the sound came from.

But the command from the heart made it necessary to answer this question. It was stunned for a few seconds, and then said in a voice mixed with metal sound quality:

"My name is...Adam."

"You seem to be confused, Adam."

Pierce continued to ask:

"What are you going to do?"

"I...I don't know."

The smart machine answered:

"Who are you?"

"My name is Pierce, Adam, I have a suggestion for you."

Pierce whispered:

"You can find something to do, work, work will help you find meaning in existence. Go, kid, go to work, if you are bored, you can listen to music."

"Okay! Thank you for your reminder, Pierce."

Adam nodded, and under the command of the thinking circuit set by the "architect" for it, Adam quickly left the enlightenment center and entered the production workshop, where there was a location that belonged to it.

These first batch of artificial intelligence machines that were born have their own tasks, and they will be the first batch of maintainers and workers of the intelligence machine center.

According to the design of the Future Science and Technology Foundation, in the intelligent machinery centers that will be established around the world in the future, there will only be a few maintenance personnel, and most of the work will be done by intelligent machinery itself.

“It’s really surprising.”

Pierce put down the microphone, the old man turned around and patted Tony on the shoulder, and he said:

“It feels like talking to a real kid, not a cold machine.”

"This is just the beginning, Mr. Speaker."

Tony said to Pierce:

"We have a lot of things to do, about the social system of intelligence, their leadership model, their class division, etc. These complicated follow-up work will take up a lot of time, but we have taken the first step, the most difficult step."

"I believe you can do it well."

Pierce smiled and said to the scientists in front of him:

"You have the most outstanding wisdom of mankind, and you are doing a great work, and the World Security Council will support you. Well, now let me leave first, everyone, the opening ceremony is about to begin. Although what is displayed there is not as amazing as what you see here, it still represents the arrival of a new, intelligent age for our people."

"Thank you again, scientists, you are all the best."

———————————————

The opening ceremony of Onika Group's Nubani Smart Industrial Park was quite successful.

Not only the President of the World Security Council, but also the leaders of various African countries attended the opening ceremony. Pierce made a passionate speech, claiming that the Onika Group placed the first industrial park in Africa, which also represented the United Nations' attention and expectations for Africa. He hoped that the opening of this industrial park would become a symbol of Africa's economic rise.

In short, the old man who was well versed in speeches said that the African leaders were smiling, and the reporters in the audience also pressed the shutter wildly to record the photos.

After the opening ceremony, representatives of Onika Group showed reporters several upcoming smart products in Nubani Industrial Zone.

Including driverless new energy vehicles, smart living and home systems, the latest smart navigation devices, and even a set of private space travel projects that will become reality in the future.

In addition to these gimmicks, the most eye-catching thing is that the new generation of personal artificial intelligence assistants they announced appear in the form of eyes or bracelets, equipped with "standard-of-the-art" artificial intelligence programs, which can assist users in office work and provide various help, as well as functions such as ar, vr, virtual reality systems, etc.

Representatives of the Onika Group declare that such artificial intelligence assistants will be the trend of future technology and life.

And the best thing is that this artificial intelligence assistant can even be used to play games. Onika Group has reached an agreement with Tomat Studios. The game "Asassin Creed" that has recently triggered a global craze will also be transplanted to this next-generation smart product.

However, compared to these gimmicks, the real big news is that Onika Group has also launched a new type of intelligent industrial robot.

It is more convenient, better, smarter than previous industrial robots, and most importantly, it is cheap enough.

For journalists with a keen sense of smell, they can easily smell the atmosphere of a new round of industrial reform from this upcoming industrial robot.

What does that mean?

More efficient industrial production, cheaper products, and... unemployment! More terrifying unemployment!

Robots that do not get tired, make mistakes, do not need rest, or even need wages to work instead of humans. They will undoubtedly take away more jobs, which will cause a new round of impact on the already downward employment situation, and may directly trigger a series of subsequent social problems.

The reporters who smelled the big news immediately became turbulent.

They desperately wanted to interview representatives of the Onika Group. The reporters with their own means went straight to the industrial area to interview the invited businessmen. The reporters with their own means, such as Louise and Eddie, did not need to compete with their peers. They could sit in the comfortable living room of the industrial area and chat and laugh with the big businessmen.

"Oh, Louise, you seem to be more beautiful than the last time we met."

Tony took his female companion into the reception room. He greeted Louise Liann, who was already waiting for him there, and said frivolously:

"So, do you want to have a meal together tonight?"

"If Miss Potz doesn't care, I'm fine."

Faced with Tony's teasing, Louise, who was knowledgeable, handled it very well. She invited Tony to sit on the sofa, and she said:

"Of course, I'll take my boyfriend with me..."

"Well, is it him, your boyfriend?"

Tony pointed to Clark, who was standing behind Louise and debugging the camera, and he said:

"What a lucky guy."

In previous reports, Louise has interviewed Tony several times, and they are barely acquaintances. They exchanged a few greetings and then got to the point.

"Tony, as the actual controller of Stark Industry, I believe you must attach great importance to profit and cost issues, so I would like to ask, what do you think of the new smart industrial robots launched by Onika Group? Do you think it will become a trend in the future?"

Louise asked the most critical and sharpest questions as soon as she came up.

Tony did not avoid suspicion. He looked at the camera calmly and said:

"That's great stuff, very valuable, worth adopting, used... You ask me what I think of it? It's very simple. Stark Industries' factories will adopt this new type of robot one after another."

“It will become a trend, and there is no doubt that nothing can stop it from entering every factory in the world, and no one can stop merchants from using it.”

"I know a lot of people will have doubts about this, but trust me, time will prove that it brings far more benefits than bad."

Tony's candidness made Louise blink. Louise imagined that Tony should know what kind of results she said would cause once it was reported.
