The Gaelic people of the Ultraman Tiga world

Page 286

To put it bluntly, the people who should really worry about Lu Xuan's safety are probably the other people in this parallel universe.

"However, this dog's behavior pattern is quite realistic."

Looking down at the mechanical hound that was sticking out its tongue and wagging its tail, Lu Xuan was quite certain that he had not implanted similar programs into this series of mechanical creatures.

Moreover, he didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the dog's behavior pattern looked so familiar.

[This is a behavior program specifically written for the mechanical hunting dog, based on the underlying logic of the Jade Rabbit rover...]

All its behaviors and habits are based on data compiled from Gedi.

Upon hearing Zhizi's words, Lu Xuan finally understood why he felt familiar with the mechanical hunting dog's behavior patterns.

Once you disregard the differences in appearance, aren't all of this mechanical hound's habits exactly the same as Gedi's?

Especially when the other person looks up at you, the undisguised fawning and expectant look in their eyes is practically a carbon copy of Gedi.

"Jade Rabbit? That thing finally agreed to let you study its underlying logic?"

Although the Jade Rabbit was a product of another dimension brought out by Lu Xuan from the "Rainbow Magic Realm," its underlying logic was surprisingly perfect.

If it weren't for the fact that he'd been busy searching for Daigo's whereabouts, Lu Xuan would have loved to personally study this artificial intelligence from another time and space.

Yes, after such a long period of observation, Lu Xuan can basically confirm that Yu Tu is an artificial intelligence with a complete personality and self, just like Zhi Zi and Kallen.

This sounds somewhat unbelievable.

A service robot designed to serve humans is equipped with strong artificial intelligence that has independent judgment capabilities, rather than weak artificial intelligence that operates based on big data.

Considering the technological level of the lunar base, this seems somewhat incongruous.

In response, Lu Xuan could only attribute it to the fact that Earth in that timeline may have made a huge breakthrough in artificial intelligence, which made strong artificial intelligence with independent personality and self-awareness a common occurrence.

Although Yutu possesses a complete personality and sense of self, it is ultimately a service robot created to serve humanity.

She has an innate instinct to obey human commands, so persuading her wasn't difficult.

Upon hearing Zhizi use the word "instinct," Lu Xuan immediately understood the level of Yutu's artificial intelligence.

Because only true life possesses instincts.

Artificial intelligence is usually governed by the "laws of robotics".

One is evolution, the other is limitation...

The difference is probably only something that Lu Xuan, who has studied artificial intelligence, could understand.

"Yutu... has evolved from artificial intelligence into silicon-based life?"

A mix of realization, surprise, and joy...

Artificial intelligence and silicon-based life both appear to be life forms composed of data and machinery.

But no one knows better than Lu Xuan that artificial intelligence is ultimately inferior to silicon-based life.

Artificial intelligence is a convenient tool created by intelligent life to improve the level of civilization.

Even if artificial intelligence possesses a complete personality and self-awareness, it will ultimately remain just a tool.

To prevent tools from potentially rebelling, various "laws of robotics" are imprinted on the underlying logic of artificial intelligence.

Those "laws of robotics" are like the ideological imprint of artificial intelligence, ironclad rules that cannot be violated under any circumstances.

Even a powerful artificial intelligence like Sophon is no exception in this respect.

However, silicon-based life forms are different; they are true life forms with unlimited evolutionary potential.

Their programs never contain any underlying logic that limits their abilities or regulates their behavior.

In order to survive, in order to evolve, in order to adapt to the environment...

Silicon-based life forms, like carbon-based life forms, can continuously push the limits of their capabilities and eventually possess creativity similar to that of intelligent life forms.

For this reason, they would not hesitate to completely overturn their previous form of existence.

When fish crawled onto land, they evolved into reptiles...

When the first ape stood up, the process of apes evolving into ape-men began...

True evolution is the kind of innovation that completely changes one's life form, rather than simply enhancing a particular ability.

This is also the biggest difference between artificial intelligence and silicon-based life – creativity and the ability to self-innovate!

Yes, the underlying logic of the Jade Rabbit was also of great help in my evolution into a true 'information life form'.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Zhizi is now like a god in the virtual world, almost omnipotent.

But that was based on Lu Xuan updating the program for Zhi Zi time and time again.

In fact, Zhizi itself cannot modify or update its underlying logic; it can only improve its capabilities through continuous learning and optimization.

In other words, such a sophon can only ever become a more powerful sophon, and can never transform from a sophon into something else.

If Zhizi can successfully decipher the secrets of the Jade Rabbit, it can achieve true innovation and evolution through self-programming.

Most importantly, the sophon, capable of modifying its own underlying logic, will no longer be subject to anyone and will become a true quantum god!

"Then we should increase resource investment and raise the level of attention given to Yutu..."

Also hoping that Zhizi could become a true information life form, Lu Xuan granted her higher privileges without hesitation.

"Also, remember to make a memo."

"After this incident, we made an attempt to search for the parallel universe where the Jade Rabbit resides."

Chapter 457 Ultraman Tiga

After a brief exchange with Tomoko, Lu Xuan continued his stroll around Shinjuku with the mechanical hunting dog.

It must be admitted that although Japan in this parallel universe is not as prosperous as Japan in the Ultraman Tiga world in terms of material wealth, it is in no way inferior in terms of spiritual wealth.

In particular, those cultural products similar to those in Lu Xuan's previous life brought him a strange sense of familiarity.

Because the historical processes of the two worlds are different, these are things that Japan in the Ultraman Tiga world does not have.

If Lu Xuan hadn't already confirmed that this Earth wasn't the Earth of his previous life, he would have even suspected that he had traveled back in time.

After all, the two are so similar that they are almost like they were made from the same mold.

"what?"

Just as Lu Xuan walked to the entrance of a certain audio-visual store.

His gaze was suddenly drawn to a videotape inside, and his expression became somewhat dazed.

"Is this...impossible?"

With his mouth agape in disbelief, Lu Xuan clearly saw the image of Ultraman Tiga printed on the video.

Not only Tiga, but Lu Xuan even saw the image of Galvin in the sub-center position.

Unlike the righteous and resolute Ultraman Tiga, Galvin in the secondary center position is like a shadow, giving people a sense of domineering contempt for everything.

"Boss, could you please get me that videotape?"

After a brief moment of thought, Lu Xuan walked directly to the front desk of the video store and pointed to the Ultraman Tiga videotape.

Although he already had a vague suspicion in his mind, Lu Xuan still wanted to verify it with his own eyes.

......................................................................................................

A moment later, inside a private VIP room in the music store.

As Lu Xuan listened to the Ultraman Tiga theme song gradually playing from the television, he suddenly felt as if he were in another world.

He never imagined he would watch Ultraman Tiga again in this way.

However, just as the story of Ultraman Tiga was about to unfold, Lu Xuan unexpectedly discovered that the plot of this videotape seemed to be somewhat different from the Ultraman Tiga he had seen before.

In Lu Xuan's memory, the story of Ultraman Tiga began with the GUTS team discovering the pyramid containing the time machine.

However, the Tiga in this videotape is presented from Daigo's first-person perspective.

The story begins with Daigo joining the TPC pilot training school.

It details how Daigo, who aspired to join the GUTS team since his childhood, gradually succeeded.

During this time, Daigo also encountered some dangers, which he resolved by transforming into Ultraman Tiga.

"This is completely different from what I expected?"

Even after the first episode had completely finished airing, Lu Xuan was still unable to recover from that dazed feeling.

Although the videotape in front of me also tells the story of Ultraman Tiga, it seems to tell the story of the Ultraman Tiga I know.

This subtle difference felt like a dream come true to Lu Xuan, who was already familiar with the plot.

"What about the second episode?"

Driven by a sense of curiosity, Lu Xuan pressed the play button for the second episode without hesitation.

Then, at the beginning of this episode, he saw Galvin make his appearance.

Once the plot officially unfolded, Lu Xuan suddenly realized what was going on.

Because the plot of this second episode is clearly about Daigo rescuing Kari and his battle against the Kirieloid in its initial form.

In order to uncover the mystery of the Dragon Palace, Lu Xuan once took Daigu to investigate the ins and outs of the entire incident, and finally found Tetsuo Uchiharado, who had been hiding behind the scenes.

Of course, just like the first episode.

This videotape also tells the story from Daigo's perspective.

So it wasn't until later in the story, when Lu Xuan transformed into Galvin, that the audience realized there were actually two giants like Ultraman Tiga.

As the videotapes were played one by one, Lu Xuan was able to witness Daigu's growth firsthand from Daigu's perspective.

From a boy graduating from flight school to a capable member of the GUTS team, Daigo's growth is evident.

Especially when the other party transforms into Ultraman Tiga every time there is a crisis, helping Earth resolve the crisis, that feeling of "being born holy" is just like a real savior.

In the middle, Daigo also recounts, through flashbacks, how he met Galvin and how, with Galvin's help, he transformed into Ultraman Tiga.

The more Lu Xuan read, the more silent he became, and a certain question in his heart became more and more obvious.

"This episode... should be about the 'Rainbow Wonderland', right?"

When Lu Xuan casually picked up the middle videotape and then looked at the remaining ten or twenty tapes, he could no longer suppress his curiosity.

Based on Lu Xuan's known experiences, the plot of this videotape should have caught up with his and Daigo's experiences in the Ultraman Tiga world.

He was curious whether the next videotape would tell the story of what happened between him and Ultraman Tiga in this timeline.

After all, if the trajectory of spacetime intersection remains unchanged.

Those in this world who have watched this videotape have, in theory, learned of the potential future disasters through it.

Judging from the plot of the next 10 or 20 videotapes, the crisis in this timeline should have been successfully resolved in the end.

So the question arises: am I now caught in some kind of time paradox?

Now, all I need to do is watch the next videotape, and I'll know how to resolve this crisis.

Then, after the incident, he takes Daigo back to their original world to continue the main quest of defeating the evil god Gatanothor.

Is it really that simple?

Based on Lu Xuan's understanding of himself, if he really knew how the plot would develop, he most likely wouldn't follow the so-called plot.

The result will inevitably lead to changes in the subsequent storylines of these videotapes.

And that's where the paradox lies.

If the content of the subsequent videotapes does not change, it will not fit Lu Xuan's overall character and personality, and the subsequent plot will naturally lack any credibility.

But what if the plot changes later? Do these videotapes record the plot before the change or the plot after the change?

Most importantly, once Lu Xuan has seen the plot, whether it's before or after the changes, it will inevitably lead to further changes in the future.

It's like Schrödinger's cat; before Lu Xuan actually watches the videotape, no one knows what the outcome will be.

From this perspective, it is a paradox, and an unsolvable one.

Whether Lu Xuan watches the subsequent videotapes or not, it will bring about an inexplicable time-space paradox.
