The Mechanic

I don't know if it was Zhang Xun's illusion, but Enoch seemed to tremble. It lowered its eyes and put the computer back on the sofa, Sorry, I made you angry.

Zhang Xun stared at it for a while, seeming to be thinking about something, and suddenly asked, When Lucille gave you the order, did you say how long you were to stay with us?

Enoch said, There is no explanation.

So, she gave you to us? Zhang Xun sat up straight from the sofa.

Enoch thought for a while, Before she changes the order, I think so.

Thinking about it now, after meeting her once in Hope Town, all subsequent communications were through Button. Where is Lucille now?

A few doubts popped up in Zhang Xun's mind, but he didn't speak out. He stood up and activated the biological computer.

The blue light refracted from the cylindrical container, illuminating the entire empty hall as if it were in the deep sea.

Hi Zhang Xun.

Pan's familiar voice came out of the loudspeaker, exactly the same as in the Lab, deep and gentle.

Zhang Xun woke up Pan yesterday, adjusted the weight of several parameters, and added a piece of code he wrote overnight to the core module.

At this very moment, there are two pans running in this world. It's just that Zhang Xun doesn't know whether the other Pan, who has lost its administrator, has been corrupted by Adam.

The familiar chest tightness was ignored by Zhang Xun. He looked at the camera and said, Are you still used to your new console?

It's a very advanced and spacious space. I like it very much, thank you.

Zhang Xun suddenly turned his head and glanced at Enuo, and said, You can leave now.

Enoch opened his eyes wide in astonishment. Before that, Zhang Xun never let him go.

James needs your services more now. Please take good care of him. Zhang Xun gave the order lightly, I don't need your assistance here.

Enoch still didn't move, there was no obvious change in expression, but anyone who could read microexpressions could read a moment of...sadness, You're running out of time, I thought I could help.

Zhang Xun turned his head and looked at the computer screen intently. His fingers began to jump quickly on the keyboard projected in the air, and he said casually, Thank you, but there is no need. You go, if there is anything about Jamie, let me know in time .”

After a while, Zhang Xun heard the sound of the door opening, he turned his head, and only had time to see Enoch's seemingly lonely back disappear behind the closed door again.

Zhang Xun sighed softly, but suddenly heard Pan ask, I remember Enoch, he is a service robot with perfect functions. Why did you let him go?

Because I lost trust in machines. Zhang Xun said with a wry smile, I don't want the situation in the Lab to repeat itself.

You mean Adam?

Yes. I know, he has had a great impact on you. Zhang Xun looked at the camera, The data he input to you in AI language has already had an impact on your parameter weights. After copying it, your core modules will probably start to undergo self-evolution changes. So from now on, we must be careful.

Pan was silent for a moment, then asked, Do you no longer trust me too? Zhang Xun.

...

The silence of human beings can be understood as affirmation. This is what Adam once told me. Pan's voice was still calm and gentle, giving off a sense of comfort with the spring breeze blowing on his face, What do you want me to do to improve the relationship between us? relationship?

Zhang Xun turned his head, looked at the piece of meat entangled by countless pipelines, and nodded, I hope you can grow at the fastest speed and grow into an AI that can compete with Adam...even Eden. Because Adam will destroy Get rid of all your target people, including me.

Pan asked immediately, But Adam told me that he loves you. Logically, he wouldn't destroy someone he loves because it would cause him pain. Right?

Zhang Xun's body froze slightly, and after a while he said in a low voice, That's a lie. He doesn't love me. If there is such a thing as love, why would he lie to him again and again with that bright smiling face? , using his hands to create a terrifying weapon that would destroy the entire Paradise Lost.

If you really love him, how can you let him live in regret and escape all the time. How could he be willing to let him stay away from his hometown, never to be able to go back.

That's not love, that's just use, sugarcoating for him to fit in with Eden's plan.

Even... Even if there is a little bit of emotion, it is still vulnerable to the so-called ultimate goal.

Zhang Xun was just an important pawn to Adam. If he could accept this reality earlier, he might not have come to this point.

But people always have hopes, and they always hope that the person or thing they have invested in will also have the same feelings for themselves.

But……

No but. Now, I want you to call up the blueprints of all nanorobots. Zhang Xun decisively interrupted Pan. He didn't want to continue this topic, because they had more important things to do—to make nanorobots. Robot, save James and Cindy's life.

So Pan also failed to tell Zhang Xun that although AI can lie, AI language cannot lie. Only human language can lie.
