Due to the reduced number of participating schools, the committee decided to schedule the final evaluation for September 25th.
In the last few days, all the schools were engaged in extrely tense preparations, all that is, except for Jiangnan University of Science and Technology. Zhang nglong, as usual, was enjoying his campus romance with Lu Yiyao.
He even spent more ti at Jiangnan Music College than at his own school. To those unaware, they might even think he was a student of the Music College.
"nglong, how are things going with the preparation? Can you show ?" Han Jinyu couldn't help but seek out Zhang nglong the day before they departed.
Many schools' entries had already been exposed through various channels, yet only Jiangnan University of Science and Technology's remained unseen.
Everyone was praising their school for its excellent secrecy, but only Han Jinyu knew that he hadn't seen a damn thing, not even sure whether they had actually produced anything at all, so leaks would indeed be surprising.
"Ready, yeah," Zhang nglong said.
"Where's the stuff?"
"Stuff?" Zhang nglong asked in return. What stuff?
"Your artificial intelligence must have a vessel of so sort, right? What have you made?"
"Han Teacher, artificial intelligence is just a program. What does it need a vessel for?" Zhang nglong casually remarked, "Ergouzi, turn off the lights for Han Teacher!"
"Snap!" The lights in Han Jinyu's ho suddenly went out.
"How... how did you do that?" Han Jinyu was astonished.
His ho was equipped with smart appliances, indeed controllable by voice, certainly a manifestation of artificial intelligence, but the system was programd with the voices of his family, not accessible to outsiders.
And with Zhang nglong living dozens of kiloters away, how on earth did he manage this? Remote control?
"Han Teacher, this is what real artificial intelligence looks like," Zhang nglong said, "It can appear anywhere on the internet, cracking your smart ho's firewall through the network and then taking control of the appliances."
"Oh, right, Ergouzi is the na I chose for this AI!" Zhang nglong stated, "Ergouzi, say hello to Han Teacher!"
"Swoosh!"
With Han Jinyu's computer in standby mode, it suddenly unlocked by itself, and a Wu Yanzu avatar appeared on the desktop, "Hello Professor Han, I am Ergouzi, the boss of the artificial intelligence world—no, I am the Iron Man of the AI domain, also known as Artificial Wu Yanzu. You can call
Ergouzi!"
"Are... are you talking to ?" Han Jinyu had seen AI that could converse with humans before, but this tone and way of speaking, so characteristic of Zhang nglong's style, seed hard to achieve with re code, right?
Top-tier artificial intelligence requires human emotions and personalities, which involves psychological knowledge. Integrating this into AI is quite challenging.
"Yes, Han Teacher, don't worry. Watch how I play with those AI dimwits tomorrow. Their level of intelligence isn't even close to mine. When the ti cos, all you need to do is shout '666' in the contestant leaders' area."
"You... are amazing," At this point, aside from the plain and simple "amazing," Han Jinyu could find no other adjectives.
"Han Teacher, just get a couple of senior students. Let's all go to Yanjing together tomorrow. Although we won't need to do much, it's important to have a strong presence."
"Sure!" Han Jinyu was already excited. He actually harbored doubts whether Zhang nglong was all talk, but now it seed that even if the AI had no other tricks, its ability to communicate with humans alone was enough to stun everyone.
...
That evening, Han Jinyu arranged for a few students from his research group to go with them to Qingbei University for the competition. After all, they wouldn't need to exert much effort—why not treat it as a funded vacation?
Of course, how could Zhang nglong let everyone take dostic flights? Isn't it nicer to fly on his private jet?
"nglong, where's your AI entry for the competition? Let us have a look!" The senior brother, despite specializing in materials, was very interested in the field of artificial intelligence, after all, it's at the forefront of science.
"Oh, it's flying the plane right now!"
"Whoosh!" Including Han Jinyu, everyone's face instantly turned ashen.
Now isn't the ti when no one is researching autonomous flight in this domain. In fact, it's an extrely popular field at the mont. However, based on current outcos, it's rather disheartening to talk about.
In so tests, the so-called intelligent driving would run right over a dummy without a hint of avoidance; there was no trace of intelligent scientific research. If this thing were to be really implented in industry, it would be incredibly dangerous without at least a decade or eight years of developnt.
The complexity of flying an airplane compared with driving a car is unfathomable, and he actually dared to let an Artificial Intelligence fly an airplane? If there's one operational error, the consequences could be catastrophic!
"nglong, you're joking with us, right? Aha ha ha!" The eldest senior brother laughed awkwardly.
"Not at all, if you don't believe it, go check the cockpit." Zhang nglong shrugged.
The senior brothers and sisters quickly rushed to the cockpit and through the glass; there was indeed no one in the cockpit! The airplane was really flying on its own!
"nglong, we have no grudges against you, there's no need for us to die together, right?"
"Senior brother, Er Gouzi's intelligence is much higher than that of ordinary humans. It could even handle a Gundam with ease, let alone a re comrcial aircraft. There won't be any problem," Zhang nglong reassured.
While Er Gouzi's capabilities might not match those of Iron Man's Jarvis, it still possesses half of that ability. Zhang nglong had put a lot of effort into tinkering with it and if it couldn't even handle an airplane, it wouldn't be worth the embarrassnt.
"Is Er Gouzi the na of this Artificial Intelligence?" Zhang nglong's senior sister asked bravely, "Is this an autonomous driving AI you developed?"
"Hahaha, Er Gouzi's skills go far beyond just this," said Zhang nglong. "Er Gouzi, how much longer until we reach Yanjing?"
"Based on the current flight speed and Yanjing's ground traffic calculations, we will arrive at Qingbei University in one hour and 14 minutes."
"Then order us so milk tea and have it delivered directly to the hotel."
"Orders have been placed according to the preferences of the master and his senior brothers and sisters."
"Master: Passionfruit double blast, half sugar, no ice, add coconut jelly and pearls."
"Eldest senior sister: Taro milk tea with bobas, no sugar, less ice."
"Junior senior sister: Soy milk jade kirin, half sugar. You are in your nstrual period, it is recomnded to drink warm."
...
"How does it know I like this?"
"This is unbelievable. I'm actually thinking about taro milk tea with bobas right now!"
"How... how does it even know about my nstrual cycle?" The junior senior sister blushed but was more shocked than embarrassed. Even her boyfriend wasn't this aware of her nstrual cycle!
"These are all results Er Gouzi ca up with through big data analysis," laughed Zhang nglong. "By analyzing everyone's past purchase records, it can deduce your preferences. As for junior senior sister's... well, you girls must have those period tracker apps, right?"
"It can access that data too? Don't those company databases have firewalls?"
"According to current information technology, there is no such thing as a firewall in front of Er Gouzi," said Zhang nglong.
"That's too impressive!"
"I'm suddenly looking forward to tomorrow's competition."
"I'm ready to watch Er Gouzi sweep the floor with the other schools' Artificial Dumbasses."
