Hao Ren found that he really didn't know enough about the drone swarm he had built. He usually only focused on collecting various information from the fleet data link and using it as a convenient detector network, but he didn't expect that this guy did the same.
It has its own "life", and its "life" is particularly stunning. Think about it, a drone AI is usually busy expanding and multiplying itself in the universe, and then when it has nothing to do,
Just look at those "documentary artworks" of drone rebellions taken by humans, watching all kinds of AI go berserk while calmly creating new AI workers. ∷, Hao Renguang thought about this scene and felt something weird.
, the reality is indeed much stranger than the novel, because at least the novel also talks about logic, right...
And he was more interested in the "forum" mentioned by the drone group.
"That's the communication platform for the drone swarm," the huge blue holographic face showed another weird smile, "it's very interesting."
"A communication platform for drone swarms?" Hao Ren felt something was wrong. He pointed at the small drones flying around, "You and them? You should have a group consciousness, why do you need a forum?
Something like that..."
"No, it's between fleets," the blue face interrupted Hao Ren's wild guess, "The empire has hundreds of millions of drones, built by the censors, launched by the empire, and from large fleets
Although the separated sub-working groups perform their own tasks in places far apart, we are connected through the data network. We have a very special 'distance concept' between each other, so... in a huge
On the information platform, drone swarms live in a very lively community."
As the blue face spoke, more pictures appeared on the walls of the mechanical chamber, which were messages from other drone swarms. These drone swarms may be performing pioneering missions millions of worlds away, or
It may be a service crew in a certain Tianshen factory. Each of them has a staggering scale. The drone group built by Hao Ren is even just a child compared with these ancient ethnic groups. This information is flowing on the data network.
The speed of the Internet, which exceeds that of any mortal civilization, is constantly being refreshed. Hao Ren can only see less than one ten thousandth of the information traffic. However, these fragments are enough to dazzle him.
"I have never seen these things before..." Hao Ren was a little stunned, "This is a... brand-new network structure? You are a kind of cluster consciousness. A large number of individuals form a unified wisdom, and then there are so many cluster consciousnesses.
They gathered together again to form a network, and then this network..."
"Yes, it is also intelligent," the blue face said lightly, "but it is huge and chaotic. It cannot be described. It is a super-experiential wisdom mode, judged by the very limited definitions of many ordinary races.
, you may not even think that it is thinking, but it is really a super intelligence. It operates deep in the data network of the drone swarm, and is responsible for providing additional computing power and deduction support to the Imperial Data Network."
Hao Ren couldn't understand what kind of existence a super AI formed by dual cluster consciousness was, but he could imagine how powerful an individual it was, especially when it was in charge of a swarm of hundreds of millions of drones.
In the case of a drone swarm with tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of lower-level individuals, Lily couldn't help but stick out her tongue after thinking about it for a moment: "Fortunately, this is not a disaster movie."
"It looks like we have to wait here for a day or two." Hao Ren turned around and looked at his companions behind him, "I'm going to stay in the lair. Do any of you want to come with me?"
Lily shook her ears: "Forget it, I'd better go back to the spaceship. My creative association ability is too developed, and it's easy to have nightmares when I look at this place."
Come over and nuzzle the good man's arm with your head: "I'll come with you, you have some dried fish."
Hao Ren pointed at Doudou, who was hanging on his arm, and immediately drooped his ears: "Forget it, meow. I can't eat fish while she's here, I'll go to the boat."
This cat has been bullied by Doudou for a long time, and has become more and more aggressive recently.
After asking around for a while, I was surprised that no one wanted to stay in this place with Hao Ren. Even Vivian, who always likes dark places, seemed not to be interested in this weird base that looked like an insect nest.
Doudou, who didn't understand anything, held Hao Ren's arm from beginning to end: the little guy seemed to have no perspective. She thought that the safest place in the world was from her father's elbow up, and this drone nest was very important to her.
The impact is zero.
After the others followed the rogue explorer for a while, they were satisfied with their curiosity and went back to the spaceship to rest. Hao Ren, led by the explorer, entered the depths of the lair. There was a dedicated
A room temporarily built (or generated) for him.
This is a gray and white steel room with a rigid style, but the drone has tried its best to decorate the place according to human aesthetics, so it can still be used as a good resting place. Hao Ren walked into the room and found that everything he could can was prepared inside.
He used the usual furniture and furnishings, and there was a huge window on one side of the room. When he came to the window, he saw outside a huge cave illuminated by light blue lights. The cave was filled with people.
There are intensively working production facilities and various mechanical devices with no visible names. There is a long and narrow opening above the cave. The new drones come in and out of those openings, bringing up streams of light.
Nearly half of those drones have weird shapes: they do not carry huge antennas or multi-functional robotic arms. Instead, they have a series of tubes or parallel crystal rail structures installed on both sides of their bodies.
"This is the production center of this outpost," Hao Ren muttered to himself, "Are you building more armed drones?"
"Yes, in accordance with the special order you issued five hours ago, the production quota of armed drones has been increased. The current production volume of armed drones is 40%, and the pioneer exploration aircraft is 30%.
The total production volume of the Nest Weaver and various industrial models is 30%. At the same time, sentry guns have been set up at every node within the fleet's activity range and on the main transportation routes. It is expected that all of them will be completed within three months of capital standard time.
Transformation and additions. Subsequent new nodes and cruise routes will be implemented in accordance with the new standards specified by you."
Hao Ren nodded: "Well, this is much safer."
"But there is one thing that the fleet must report:" The blue face floated behind Hao Ren. It shrank in size to fit the size of Hao Ren's room. "After the new standards are implemented, the development speed will drop by 100%."
20. Originally, the drone fleet was equipped with basic self-defense firepower, and important nodes of the drone fleet also had sentry guns. You ordered these weapons to be doubled. Is this necessary?"
"You are a civilian model," Hao Ren looked back at the interactive interface of the cluster consciousness, but unfortunately, the other party's expression was still not vivid enough, and it seemed meaningless for him to exchange expressions with the other party, "so it is not surprising that you have this way of thinking.
.But don’t forget the test we did.”
"In the fire conflict simulation with the Pattian battleship and the battle simulation with the Guardian battleship, ordinary drones are at a disadvantage." The fleet consciousness replied calmly.
"That's right, because most drones are not armed at all, and they are not even armed with only mining guns and welders. You are only a civilian model, and the things I can use are also civilian models, and they are the 'safest' ones.
Well, the censor's weapons are for peacekeeping, not for intimidation." Hao Ren crossed his arms and looked at the busy production factory outside the window, "It would work in other universes, but in this universe, light
Peacekeeping is not enough."
"Partner, what do you think you will go to war with?" The data terminal floated over. It passed through the holographic projection of the cluster consciousness and came to Hao Ren. "You are preparing an army. Although according to the standards of the upper levels, it is considered civilian security,
But to most mortal civilizations, you are building a torrent of steel, and it is a terrifying one. You have never made such a radical and strong move before."
"The eldest son who went crazy and became the guardian of the brain monster. These two threats alone are enough to make me be more alert. Moreover, there is also a living traitor son appearing at Suluen Gate. Although it is in a special time and space with Suluen Gate.
It depends on the status, but this is enough to show that the goddess of creation's divine punishment of genocide has loopholes, so we have more than one or two hidden dangers to worry about." Hao Ren shook his head slightly, "At this stage, I just let the drone group strengthen its self-protection ability.
That’s all, these are my most important eyes and ears. I don’t want anyone to destroy this network at the critical moment. But in the future..."
Hao Ren paused and looked at his hands.
Dark red lines spread on his palms, like ugly burns. Although there was no pain, whenever he clenched his fists, he would feel a burning heat. This burning heat was the same as when he was in the God-killing illusion.
It felt exactly the same, almost like a continuation of that illusion.
After touching the golden disc, he got much more information than he imagined. (To be continued...)
