◈ 226. Towards the End (4)

The country that is most advanced in quantum computing technology, also known as the dream computer technology, is not the United States, but China.

The United States was the country that had most developed artificial intelligence (AI) technology, but it was thought that once quantum computers were developed and began to develop in earnest, artificial intelligence (AI) performance would also reach a singularity.

Although the performance of artificial intelligence AI had already reached singularity, it was clear that it would be noticeably different.

As China was embroiled in war with its neighbors, its still-unfinished quantum computer technology was not properly deployed in the AI ​​war, but it was still a huge threat.

The scientific foundation of humanity around the world was on the verge of collapse in the heated artificial intelligence war.

Hyunjin stops by a research center in the ruins of inland China.

Although he was fired from the Balbal Group, he continued to receive orders for exploration work through organizations sponsored by the Balbal Group.

And then I was asked to investigate a ruined research facility.

beep!

As Hyun-jin went deeper into the mysterious laboratory, he confirmed that Cashup was sending out a danger signal, indicating that it had detected danger.

“The risk level is quite high. And it costs this much. What on earth is there?”

Hyun-jin, who thought it was a trivial exploration mission, had to be nervous about a higher level of danger than expected.

At this point, the loss was so great compared to the cost of the request that it was something that should have been given up on, but Hyun-jin became curious because the risk level was so high.

And in that ruined research facility, Hyun-jin was able to face the android combat weapon.

A combat weapon, presumed to be a security robot from the research lab, attacked Hyunjin.

If he had not sensed the crisis and prepared for it, it would have been quite dangerous, but Hyun-jin fought this combat weapon by mobilizing all the weapons he had and was able to survive.

“Whew! This is really out of the ordinary. When on earth did you create such a monster? And what on earth were you hiding?”

The Korean government and the Baljeol Group treated China with brutal cruelty.

Although China’s downfall is said to have been due to wars with neighboring countries and various disasters, it was the Korean government that put an end to it.

To be precise, it was a footstep group that weaponized food.

They say that Europe is what is hindering Africa’s development.

To be precise, they were European agricultural companies.

Most industries in African countries without a distinct economic foundation were centered on primary industries.

Africa had a land area dozens of times larger than Europe, and although much of it was desert, the size of cultivated land was still far greater than that of Europe.

The weakness of Africa’s agricultural base, where labor costs are much lower than in Europe, was due to Europe’s food policy.

European food giants are destroying African farmers through massive dumping competition.

African farmers, many of whom were small family farms, were unable to compete on price with large corporations, and so even if they farmed, they could not withstand competition from large European food companies that sold their crops at dumped prices.

Agriculture, which failed to accumulate capital, became technologically backward, and as the price of seeds increased, Africa’s agricultural ecosystem collapsed.

In such times, the government should have stepped in to block aggressive foreign capital and materials, but corrupt politicians brainwashed with bribes instead accelerated the downfall of their own farmers.

So Africa had to become a land of starvation.

The Footsteps Group applied the same European policies to China and Japan.

They dumped agricultural products into China and Japan, which were in chaos due to war and natural disasters.

Of course, it was China and Japan that needed food due to severe drought.

China and Japan, which needed food, had no choice but to accept any demand, whether it was dumping or not.

Of course, even that wasn’t enough, so China and Japan gradually collapsed.

There were many cities that were left in ruins all over the Chinese mainland, and the research center that Hyunjin was exploring was located in one of those ruined cities.

“Can you open the door?”

-It seems possible.-

“Okay. Open the door.”

Jumong continued to improve his performance.

Although it is said to be a high-performance relic of the past, the performance of artificial intelligence (AI) contained in a small portable terminal is difficult to surpass that of artificial intelligence in a huge data center.

However, Hyunjin has been continuously increasing Jumong’s artificial intelligence performance through Cash Up.

Thanks to this, we were able to dismantle the strong security of facilities that were becoming lost technologies.

Crucially important facilities had their own power plants, so they often had power even when the outside power supply was cut off.

With that, security was dismantled and Hyunjin was able to enter the lab.

The interior was neater than I expected.

It seemed to have been abandoned for over ten years and was not completed, but Hyun-jin learned about this research facility with Ju-mong’s help.

-It seems to be a facility where China’s super artificial intelligence project was being researched. Furthermore, it seems to be applying quantum computer technology that is almost complete.-

“Quantum computer technology?”

-If it had been completed, there is a very high possibility that the direction of the war would have been different.-

If artificial intelligence (AI) meets quantum computers, there is a possibility that online possibilities could even affect the material world.

It meant that one could use magic from fantasy novels.

Of course, the performance of quantum computers still had to be further developed, but if they reached the quantum realm, humanity would be able to fully advance beyond Earth into a space civilization.

“Then, is it possible to expand beyond the solar system to other star systems?”

-No, that’s not true. It could be possible if we make a little more technological leap, but the universe is incredibly vast. It’s not easy to completely control this near-infinite physical distance and time, even with quantum mechanics.-

Being able to leave Earth doesn’t mean you can travel freely through space.

“Hmm! Then, is this CashUp perhaps made with quantum computers and strong artificial intelligence?”

-That’s very likely. Even with my current performance, it’s difficult to analyze an application called CashUp.-

Hyunjin felt a little clearer as he was able to guess where the cash up came from.

“Even if it’s an artificial intelligence with quantum mechanics technology, it’s not yet invincible. Jumong.”

-Please speak.-

“How much energy is needed to stop a threat flying from space?”

– The amount of energy required will vary depending on the threat. If it is on a scale that could destroy the Earth, it is likely difficult to stop even with the artificial intelligence of a quantum computer. –

“Was it like that?”

The last day on earth.

The disasters and catastrophes that have occurred so far have been a threat to humanity, but they are far from being a threat to the Earth itself.

Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, rising sea levels, and climate crises were certainly huge crises, but it would be difficult for humanity to suddenly become extinct due to these crises.

Although the zombie outbreak was a shock that could destroy humanity from within, a zombie outbreak like the one shown in the movie was close to impossible, both physically and physiologically.

No matter how fast the virus spreads, it is difficult for it to multiply and attack bodily organs enough to turn humans into zombies in a matter of seconds or minutes.

It was a pretty good disaster to destroy the cooperation and trust that were the forces that gave humans control of the Earth.

What’s scary about the zombie apocalypse is not the monsters it creates, but the destruction of trust and faith between humans, making it impossible for humans to fully exert their power.

“In the end, was this a story about artificial intelligence destroying humanity, just as humans killed God in the past? But humanity won.”

Humanity has declined in its level of civilization.

Although in some areas progress had been made, the overall level of civilization was clearly in decline.

Research on quantum computers and artificial intelligence technology has reached a point where it is difficult to even maintain, let alone develop.

These two studies involved astronomical amounts of funding and resources.

It would be great if the artificial intelligence technology developed in this way were used for the benefit of humanity, but it was clear how it would be used if it was developed in a country at war with its neighbors.

Even if we were not at war, humanity would be more likely to use this great power for greed than for prosperity.

Moreover, the possibility that artificial intelligence would become an enemy of humanity was very high.

Even if the artificial intelligence that waged war against humanity ends up winning.

“If we cannot prevent a threat from space that could destroy the Earth….”

Hyunjin thought that maybe CashUp was a safety device created by a highly advanced artificial intelligence AI to prevent its own destruction.

“Why leave it up to humans? They can do it themselves.”

-Because to AI, humans are the creators who gave birth to it.-

“what?”

-Just as humans turn to God in times of despair, wouldn’t it be strange for artificial intelligence to turn to its creator, humans, in times of despair?-

Hyunjin had to feel bewildered by Jumong’s words.

On the other hand, somehow it seemed understandable.

Of course, there was no way to know if what Hyunjin thought was true.

It was only the closest prediction.

-Can I absorb the artificial intelligence capabilities of this facility?-

“Absorption? You’re not thinking of something strange, are you?”

-Don’t worry. I have no complaints with you, Master. And with humans, too.-

Hyunjin had a feeling that it might be dangerous to increase Jumong’s performance too much, but he still felt strongly that it was necessary.

“If you cause trouble….”

-Don’t worry. I can’t find any answers to the crisis coming from space. I just want to ask you a favor. By the way, the battery performance of my smartphone has decreased by 19%. Please replace the battery or change the device.-

“Hold on a little longer.”

-All right.-

Hyun Jin gave permission for performance improvements as Jumong was having difficulty dealing with threats from space.

Improving Jumong’s performance required a huge amount of points, but now it doesn’t require any points.

In this way, Jumong began to acquire various sources and resources of artificial intelligence using quantum computers that China was nearing completion.

It took some time, but the performance was greatly improved.

“So now it’s the world’s best AI program? It’s capable of analyzing cash-up?”

– It is still not enough to say that it is the best in the world. This research institute’s AI research is not complete, and it was not possible to acquire 100%. And it seems that there are AIs in other regions that are on par with this research institute’s AI. –

“There are still monsters like that?”

– There are still some very high-performance AIs out there, although they don’t seem to be performing at their full potential due to lack of maintenance and lack of proper energy supply. And CashUp is still difficult to analyze. However, it seems certain that it was created by an AI that surpasses my performance. –

Although a complete analysis is difficult, it now appears possible to confirm some attribute information.

In this way, Hyun-jin not only has to further enhance Jumong’s performance, but also has to eliminate any artificial intelligence that could pose a threat.

And I was able to guess a little bit about why the footstep group had no choice but to do this.
