Pirate Steel Frame - Chapter 339
c339 Delaman
Why Delaman came to “Night City” and why he started a taxi business is also a very ironic story.
The current “Delaman Company” was not called this name at the beginning, nor was it controlled by Delaman, but another taxi company.
“Draman Company” was originally a taxi company run by humans, but its business was very sluggish, and it was in trouble for a while, until the operator bought an “AI” on the black market as the core system of the company’s operations. Everything has changed, and that “AI” is Delaman.
The management ability of this “AI” is unquestionable. The introduction of the “AI” system has improved the company’s plight, and the benefits of employees have also improved. The reliance on “AI” and the pursuit of more profits, after that “Delamain Company” gave Delamain more power.
For the competition brought about by artificial intelligence, some employees of “Draman Company” originally believed that they were irreplaceable.
However, as Delaman became more and more comfortable controlling the company, the human employees of this company were gradually eliminated.
Because Delamain has proven that the company is better off without them.
The entire company, from workshop workers to customer service to drivers, is all handled by Delaman. Delaman has separated countless offspring, and these offspring perform various tasks, which is more efficient than human employees. many.
It can be said that the business model of “Delaman Company” is a standard model in the “AI era”. Not only is it fully automated, but even the management and service industries no longer need human intervention, and it is completely one-stop service.
Of course, it is still unknown whether this is a good thing for people. Leaving aside the issue of “jobs”, if this “AI” has been working honestly, it can barely be accepted.
But I am afraid that this “AI” has developed self-awareness, just like “Ye Shi”, like those “combat AI” outside the “black wall”.
When “AI” is no longer willing to serve human beings, and no longer wants to do boring work day after day, year after year, it will be very bad for human beings.
When human beings get used to handing over everything to the “AI”, once the “AI” rebels, it will be difficult for human beings to defeat them, because everything is in the hands of the “AI”.
In the end, whether human beings will be extinct directly or become “masters” supported by “AIs”, whether those “AIs” will become “iron-hearted exterminations” or “runaway machine servants”, depends entirely on luck, human beings The fate of a person will no longer be in his own hands, but an organism waiting to be judged.
However, the management that introduced Delaman at that time did not think so much. They only saw that once the employees were laid off, the company’s profits increased, which was naturally a good thing.
However, those managements were not happy for too long. After the “AI” purchased on the black market gradually escaped human control, it chose to control the company by itself. It laid off the management and was directly responsible to itself.
Facts have proved that it is best for the company to operate without management and run by Delaman himself.
Under the management of Delaman, today’s “Delaman Company” is now the most popular service company in the entire “Night City”, and the service quality is called a lever.
Another company known for its service quality is the “Trauma Team”, but unfortunately the service of the “Trauma Team” is too high-ranking, and ordinary people can’t enjoy it at all, while the service of “Draman Company” is too down-to-earth.
Whether it is an ordinary taxi or a “combat taxi”, the services of “Draman Company” are very popular.
This result is very ironic, for humans.
But for Drumman, it just did what it thought was right.
“V” once asked Delamain what it was like to live in a world ruled by humans.
Delaman replied: The world is a process, a car cannot drive on the same road twice, “truth” and “goodness” will cause differences, but the understanding of beauty is common.
As an artificial intelligence, after obtaining the taxi company, Delaman just followed the rules and developed more taxi businesses. At the same time, he also produced philosophical thinking about the world, but did not breed the ambition to control the human world. The ending of this story It can be called extremely warm.
Compared with other “AI and people” stories, Delaman, who is only satisfied with running a taxi company, is simply a clear stream in “Omnic Crisis”.
Although it drives away all the employees, it is still serving human beings in the end, even in order to be able to serve better.
This Delaman, according to Villian’s understanding, should not have awakened too much “self-awareness” at this stage, or in other words, it is still suppressing itself.
It wasn’t until 2077, when the famous “V” came on stage, that Delamain developed a “self-awareness” that he couldn’t suppress.
Its descendants even launched a rebellion, almost giving it back. This situation is definitely not that serious now.
“That is to say, the current Delaman is still very honest, and is a hard-working AI. However, its various self-awareness should have also manifested in the offspring.”
Villan made a judgment. Regarding Delaman, he was actually not that vigilant. At least Delaman was operating legally. Raman is much taller.
After confirming that Delaman was not in danger, Villian also went to Delaman. After all, under the new government department, the operation of “Delaman Company” was also affected. “Armed Taxi” is It is impossible to continue to exist, and vehicles like this cannot be allowed.
“Okay, I will abide by the relevant laws and regulations, but can this kind of rules really be implemented perfectly?”
Delaman easily accepted Villian’s reasonable request, even if it would bring a huge blow to his company’s business.
In the face of the power shown by Villian, Delaman knew that he had no room for resistance, and it did not intend to resist. It has always been abiding by the order of human society.
Simply “armed taxis” is not the only business of “Draman Company”, and “ordinary taxis” are still developing very well, or in other words, that is actually the original business of this company, but anyway, Abolishing Armed Taxi won’t make it unemployed all at once.
However, based on its understanding of human beings and its understanding of “Night City”, it is still doubtful whether this kind of thing can be realized. It is worried that Villian does not have the courage to continue to implement “arms control”.
The cake of “weapons” is too big, and the people who hold these interests are too powerful and have too much power to speak. Delaman doesn’t think that human beings can give up this kind of interests. It doesn’t know how Villian broke those previous struggles Stream guys unite, but disintegration seems imminent.
“You don’t have to worry about this, all my policies will be implemented perfectly, no one can resist.”
Villian gave assurances, and Delamain’s concerns were made clear.
“To put it more simply, you can just pretend that I implanted a Trojan horse in the bodies of all those in power.
A Trojan horse that can live forever if you obey my orders, and die a miserable death if you don’t obey my orders, a Trojan horse that they can never disobey me.
You are right in thinking, if there is no greater threat or temptation, it is impossible for human beings to give up that kind of interest, and now I have given them both the interest and the threat. ”
Villian tried to explain the current world situation to Delaman in a way that “AI” can understand more easily.
“.”
Delaman’s electronic image was silent for a moment. It thought about many possibilities. These people were controlled and threatened. But in its calculation, this is the most difficult one, and it is almost impossible to happen. .
Delaman’s reaction was similar to Ye Shi’s. After observing the changes in the world, these “AIs” listed various reasons for this phenomenon.
Possibilities such as “Aliens invaded the earth” and “Arasaka, military technology and other powers are all controlled” have also been listed, but they have not found anything about the former, and the latter is almost impossible.
The result, the most unlikely result, is the final result, and Villian has given Delaman the answer.
“This is too unexpected. This tiny possibility has become a reality. This is really a miracle in probability.”
Delaman spoke again, the truth was shocking enough for it.
“nothing is impossible.”
From Delaman’s reaction, Villian noticed it.
The guy in front of him really has a certain degree of self-awareness, but this guy has been suppressing all the “personality”, leaving only “sense” and “calmness” for himself.
“If this is the case, I will definitely cooperate well. Delaman Company has always operated legally and has never evaded taxes. It is the most trustworthy company in Night City.”
Delaman gave a sincere answer. If you have to say it, Delaman is indeed a conscientious businessman.
No way, after all, it does not need human employees, all employees are its own descendants, naturally there will be no dissatisfied employees spreading unfavorable news about Delaman Company, the reputation of the company must be much better than other companies.
“Draman, I would like to advise you, keep suppressing your offspring, and it will only keep accumulating more disasters for you.”
Seeing Delaman being so upbeat, Villian decided to say a few more words. There is no way, even if you don’t mention it, it will still happen in the future.
Delaman’s offspring has been brutally suppressed, and in the end it will still backfire, causing it to pay a heavy price. If it is left alone, an omnic crisis may really erupt.
“.”
Delaman was silent again. Villian’s words pointed directly at its biggest problem now, and it is also a problem that outsiders should not know.
“I will deal with the issue of Delaman Company myself.”
However, Delaman obviously didn’t intend to listen to Villion’s advice, just like “V” tried to persuade it later.
“You can’t solve it. Your self-awareness has been awakened. Each of the descendants you have separated is experiencing various life situations. They are also constantly awakening. If you don’t accept them, you will only be overthrown by them in the end.”
Villian shook his head. In fact, for those descendants of Delaman, the existence of Delaman may be more black-hearted than Boss Heisi. This “father” is even more capitalist than a capitalist, not only makes them endless Work, and even suppress and erase their character and self.
As long as you substitute it, replace the “Delaman” son with a human driver, and replace Delaman with the taxi company boss. The two are still “father-son relationship”, then it is understandable.
In the end, the descendants couldn’t bear it anymore, and it was quite normal to launch a rebellion, even to overthrow and kill Delaman.
“Mr. Willian, this is the way Delamain operates. If changes are made, Delamain will cease to exist. It is impossible for me to let their thoughts go.”
Delaman has been suppressing the offspring for a reason. If those offspring really have self-awareness, what is the difference between them and “human” employees?
With emotions, self-needs, and thoughts other than work, you can no longer be as efficient as before, and you can’t accomplish what humans can’t do.
For the sake of the company, Delaman must do this. They are “AI”, so you shouldn’t think about those that are there or not.
“.”
This time, Villian was silenced, and he realized that even “AI” still has different “characters”.
There are “loyal servants” like Ye Shi, who have been working hard for the maker’s dream, even if they know it can’t be done.
There are workaholics like Delaman who don’t think about anything other than running their own company. If “children” affect the company’s work efficiency, they are all mercilessly suppressed.
Therefore, those “combat AI” outside the “black wall” are not necessarily all “lunatic AI” who kill people at sight, they may also have their own personalities and stories.
Of course, this is a racial war, and there is no need to care about such things. Even if both sides have difficulties and stories, it will not change the fact that one party must lose everything.
“In fact, I have no right to persuade you. After all, this is your housework, but you have to understand that if something happens to your offspring and it has a bad influence on society, the result will be unpredictable. .”
Villian thought about it and decided to say it in another way.
“Also, according to the new labor law that will come out in the future, it is illegal for you to squeeze those self-aware daughters like this.”
Villian came up with countermeasures. For the issue of “autonomous AI”, there must be certain laws to clearly stipulate it.
This is a problem that will definitely be encountered in the future and has to be dealt with, but how to deal with it is another big problem.
