Pedestrians running red lights, electric scooters without helts, and people spitting everywhere have almost vanished from the city center.
Primarily, very few people can tolerate a robot rolling up in front of them, or a loudspeaker in the square interrupting music, followed by a childish voice announcing: "You live in XX district, work at XX, and hold the position of XX. Brother, sister, uncle, aunt, why are you running the red light again? Why did you do XX again?"
Especially when stopped by a robot lecturing on various uncivilized behaviors, it’s genuinely hard to know whether to get mad or not.
Really, it’s hard to imagine that the robots responsible for promoting civility even have a sponge-padded area on their chest, specially marked with "If you’re angry, you can pound here!" That kind of vibe.
This contraption babbles on the street, drawing weird looks from a bunch of people, and once experienced, it’s hard to forget.
Thinking of running?
Don’t even think about it!
You can indeed run at that mont, but who knows how many of these civilized advisory robots are in the city, and they’re all networked. You might escape this ti, but you’d be rembered, and who knows when you’ll encounter one again, being publicly chastised loudly all over again. Even scarier, next ti you might et it with soone important by your side.
One could only say that villains are eventually grinded down by greater villains.
Robots truly don’t mind being cumberso or having a fuss. After all, they just carry out their duties there, subjected to human beatings and curses.
Especially with new materials backing them, ordinary people can’t really inflict severe damage on the robots.
Additionally, a classic street incident occurred, placing Xilin at the center of online discussions.
Because the incident involved the most classic dilemma of whether to help soone or not.
The process was simple; a man around sixty years old fell off his bicycle, and a teenage boy behind him didn’t think much before imdiately getting off his bike to help the man up. The man then adamantly claid he was knocked over by the boy, demanding 2000 yuan in compensation.
The boy hadn’t even had the chance to be frightened before two civilized advisory robots rolled over from the street and directly displayed the video of the event on their head monitors.
What followed was straightforward.
The civilized advisory robots first asked the boy to leave directly, then coordinated with the traffic police and ambulance, and notified the elderly man’s family. After sending the man to the hospital for examination and finding no major issues, the robots encircled the man and his family.
Due to the elderly man’s demand for 2000 yuan from the well-intentioned boy who helped him up, Dou Dou’s punishnt was that the elderly man or his son should give the boy a gratitude paynt of three tis the demanded amount, which was 6000 yuan.
It’s rumored that the robots also displayed the employnt unit of the elderly man’s son on the monitor.
Then, they generously asked the elderly man’s son if he was willing to pay the gratitude fee to resolve the issue peacefully.
Of course, the money was given, and it was handed over quickly and willing.
After all, with the entire city full of intelligent robots, according to these gadgets’ habits, one might encounter them each ti leaving ho, with robots using large screens to publicly display the incident throughout the city, then ask whether willing to give the gratitude fee again.
Unless one truly stops going out, otherwise probably no one can endure such intense harassnt. Even so, the video was uploaded online by so nosy people, though given the willingness with which the gratitude was paid, other than the boy who helped the elderly man, everyone else in the video was censored.
The feedback online varies.
So feel satisfied; so think the compensation was too little. Dou Dou should have helped ask for more for the kind-hearted boy.
But in Xilin, if encountering similar extortion on the street and obtaining threefold compensation, it seed to beco a rule never appearing in any docunts. Many locals comnted under the discussion, wondering why the old man didn’t ask for two hundred thousand imdiately?
Moreover, it’s worth ntioning that, since these robots began working, street fights, restaurant brawls, and other public disputes reduced by eighty percent.
The robots directly diated and resolved ordinary conflicts.
When it escalated to a degree where a fight was inevitable, the robots rushed to the scene while playing battle songs. As long as the parties involved had a shred of rationality, the robots started enlightening them promptly, explaining where and how to hit, potential injuries, and the corresponding consequences.
For example, hitting the head causing split lips or broken front teeth qualifies as minor injury level one, losing two teeth is minor injury level two; nasal bone fracture or displacent counts as a minor injury...
Then they cited past cases, analyzing clearly how much compensation was needed, and how long one would need to tread the sewing machine.
Even capable of providing warm suggestions, like inferring from various information which detention center has a good environnt, which nearby work-required place has better benefits, and where staff are more humane...
In this manner, under the efforts of a group of robots, troubleso matters visibly reduced.
Many previously extrely busy jurisdictional police units often didn’t receive more than two alarms in a day. Many officials who had to revolve around Dou Dou continuously even felt uncomfortable. Quite suddenly, the whole city beca so reasonable, those once unreasonable loud complainers suddenly vanished.
Truly, within a month, Xilin City underwent a massive transformation, and the word ’rules’ seed etched into the locals’ hearts.
Whether at bus stops or supermarkets, whether elderly or children, everyone spontaneously lined up; trash bins visibly increased along roads, and sanitation workers responsible for each area had noticeably less work, yet the city remained cleaner and tidier.
Although the city didn’t explicitly ban honking, the city’s noise visibly decreased.
Overall, in just one month, the ntal state of Xilin residents upgraded to a whole new level, leaving many outsiders puzzled. Only recent tourists to Xilin turned into online mouthpieces, boasting about how civilized Xilin now is, and how adorable those robots scattered around the city are...
This indirectly confird the discourse online.
A filthy nation, if everyone follows rules rather than raving about morality, eventually turns into a normal nation with human warmth, allowing morality to gradually return;
Conversely, in a clean nation where everyone ignores rules yet touts morality, high-mindedness, talking ethics all day with everyone selfless, such a nation eventually degenerates into a filthy nation full of hypocrites.
The effect is that Dou Dou almost achieved sainthood online.
Now, whenever Dou Dou posts a tweet, a throng of netizens spontaneously floods the comnts with "Welcoming Saint Dou’s arrival!"
Even many city netizens started petitioning online hoping Dou Dou moves to their city...
Of course, few know how grassroots staff at the AI Charter Bureau managed this past month.
It’s truly exhausting!
A city generates data daily that explodes, especially at night, when people are most energetic. While patrol officers have less work, the data volu they need to process only increases...
However, none of these events impact Qiao Ze.
What makes Qiao Ze happiest isn’t this year’s academicians inductee ceremony nor Xilin City’s growing online reputation, but rather that his two kids are awake for longer each day.
Initially, when he returned ho, both little ones slept soundly; only waking due to hunger or bed-wetting, they’d start crying. Now gradually, upon returning ho, the two children can stay awake and interact with him.
Even if briefly, even if rely kicking their legs, babbling "ee-ya, ee-ya," or showing a goofy smile, it already makes Qiao Ze feel like the world has sohow transford.
For the first ti in his life, he can fully set aside mathematical symbols and complicated theorem proofs from his mind, just focusing on accompanying his two babies, watching their various antics.
Whether it’s blowing bubbles or continually sucking their thumb, it’s all so amusing.
Qiao Ze’s decades-old daily routine habits, simply shifted for more interaction with the little ones.
Indeed, he genuinely enjoys a daily interaction with his babies, sotis delaying sleep by one or two hours just to watch the two little ones stretch their legs, fight, or show him a smile.
According to Lu Xiuxiu, her son has finally grown up since becoming a father...
Thus, amid countless feelings of comfort and excitent, the two children reached their full-month milestone and it was ti to na them.
