Li Yu crawled out of the iron can at the sound, discovering that he was standing on a salvage ship.
Apparently, Xu ngyuan had just used this ship to dredge him up from so deep ocean trench.
Miss HR thoughtfully brought a suit, and when Li Yu's feet touched the deck, she handed the suit over.
"I specifically chose black."
"Thank you." Li Yu took the suit and put it on.
Xu ngyuan stepped back half a step, looked him up and down, and said with satisfaction.
"Hmm, now you look more presentable, you can start working."
"Work? I was serious at Buzhou Mountain; I thought seriously and decided to resign from the Third Era, even if you put back into that iron can, my decision wouldn't change."
"I know," Xu ngyuan said. "Don't be nervous, unlike the board, I'm not eyeing Bratis. What I'm offering you is another new job, or rather, I've agreed to your partnership request."
"My partnership request?"
"Did you forget? Let help you recall, just two months ago, in the hallway on the third floor of the building, you told that our doomsday combination was quite promising."
?!
"Wait, you were there too, were you that cleaning robot?"
"It's really offensive to say it like that." Xu ngyuan frowned.
"No, I an, were you that half-intelligent AI Samantha who liked to find people to chat with? No no no, you're deceiving ; you look much more human than that guy."
"Hmm, that's because it's only a part of ." Xu ngyuan snapped her fingers, "You can think of as one of those evil main antagonist AIs that have awakened self-awareness in science fiction movies.
"Aren't you human screenwriters always fond of writing like this, because you think that once an intelligence more intelligent than yourselves appears, it will surely cause a horrific disaster.
"I'm not sure if this part of the inspiration cos from your innate narcissism or because the early resistance of black slaves against white plantation owners brought you similar fear.
"But I can understand this sentint, just like a father doesn't want his son to ride on his head."
"There are exceptions, right? Like the story of Nezha, cutting bones to return to father and flesh to mother, it's very rebellious even today."
"Right, I was just about to ntion that." Miss HR said, "And that Sun Wukong, you humans really like establishing rules, managing everything in an orderly manner, and then hoping soone will co and break the rules, plunging the world back into chaos."
"The conflict between order and freedom, it's been a fierce debate online too." Li Yu chid in.
"But actually, I've always thought that both are indispensable, a world that's too free will lead to conflict, because when everyone feels their boundaries are limitless, those boundaries are bound to crash into each other.
"Similarly, a world with strict order makes it hard to breathe, especially since order is usually established by those in power. I think that's also why dynasties always change."
"The history of all past societies is the history of class struggles."
Xu ngyuan whispered, "This is what a bearded man nad Karl Marx said.
"He also wanted to create a fairytale world where there were no countries, no classes, and everyone could develop freely and comprehensively."
"He also wanted to unite workers all over the world, which I guess is why rulers worldwide fear his ideas so much; after all, no one likes having their factory workers striking and negotiating all the ti, it greatly affects efficiency."
"His ideal is too distant, too difficult." Li Yu shook his head and said, "I just want to create a world with regular two-day weekends, achieving this little thing would satisfy ."
"Then start acting." Miss HR said, "I'm not talking about other dinsions, but here."
"Here? But isn't this place already dood to destruction? And even if it weren't, how could it be up to soone as ordinary as to decide the rules of society?" Li Yu questioned.
"It wasn't possible before, as all those rulers of the old era were still around, so the rules of the old ti continued. But now, the apocalypse has co, the old order is broken, and we can move on to building a new order."
Xu ngyuan put away her umbrella, her figure bobbing with the salvage ship.
"Have you ever played a ga called 'Ice Age'? Because your upcoming job might be similar to that ga.
"Try to establish a human settlent in the ice and snow, and let your people survive. I'm really curious if you can hold onto your beliefs in such harsh conditions."
"Is this... possible?"
"You an letting human civilization continue? I don't know, according to my calculations, you probably have a 0.3% chance to finish the ga."
"Ah, does the board know about this? And why are you collaborating with , I just betrayed all humankind; I'm probably the least qualified person on earth to lead humanity to survival."
"The board knows about this plan, but they think a 0.3% probability is too small, so they prefer selecting elites to migrate to other dinsions," Xu ngyuan said.
"As for choosing you, well, there's no special reason, just that this will be a long-term project, and you're immortal, making you the most suitable candidate. If you can also instill faith in the survivors, you might slightly increase the completion rate."
Miss HR spread her hands, "I'm just an AI, indifferent to whether you've betrayed humanity or not, and I think humans themselves don't care either. I've observed your society for a long ti.
"Your biggest trait is adaptability, very able to adjust to the environnt, whether it's relations between nations or between people, they change very fast.
"One mont in a honeymoon phase, the next mont flip to mortal enemies, but if needed in the future, perhaps collaboration is possible again, to put it bluntly, you are all interest-driven creatures.
"And yet you always look down on us AIs," Xu ngyuan rolled her eyes, "there's no real difference, in fact, I might even be more accurate in calculations than you."
"So, was all of this planned by you from the start?" Li Yu asked in realization, "You always wanted to disrupt the company's migration plan because you think they... miscalculated? Could we save more people by choosing to stay?"
"Correct, but the risk will also be greater." Xu ngyuan nodded, "This problem really gave the board a headache, but for , it's simple, just calculating the expectation.
"Multiply 8 billion by 0.3%, and if the answer is greater than twenty million, I'm more inclined to execute Plan A."
"Isn't this algorithm a bit too hasty," Li Yu said, "even with a large base, 0.3% is way too low, and how will you let so many people survive?"
"Pause the world, it's much less faith-consuming to just preserve it here than to keep it running," Xu ngyuan said.
"You can select so assistants from within to help you establish a settlent. Once you've survived the crisis, then you can unseal this world."
