Absolute Destiny Game

Super fantasy god? It sounds very powerful.

"Really? More powerful than Alpha Dog?" Xiao Jie asked in surprise. In his impression, Alpha Dog was still a very awesome existence.

"Of course. After all, AlphaGo was already an AI ten years ago. Artificial intelligence is now a hot industry. All major technology companies are studying this stuff and constantly iterating and updating it. AlphaGo is nothing. There are even companies starting to develop it now. Dominant level AI.”

"Dominator-level AI? What is that?"

"Theoretically, AI can dominate everything. Do you know how to win in backgammon by playing first?"

"I know."

As long as you master certain skills in backgammon, you can theoretically win if you go first. Of course, later on, for the sake of balance, a no-hand rule was added, but even so, there is still a huge advantage to playing first.

“It is very easy to win first in backgammon because the rules are so simple that humans can do it after training.

In fact, in theory, all chess games can win first, but the computing power required is different.

For example, in chess, humans cannot do it, but AI can now play chess and win if you move first. As long as the AI ​​moves first, every move you make will be clearly calculated. No matter how you move, you will definitely lose. .

The game is over from the first move.

But Go is currently unable to achieve this, because the variables of Go are too large, and the computing power required increases exponentially, which is simply not possible with current computers.

However, it is said that some laboratories have begun to combine quantum computers with AI. It is said that they can develop dominant AI. Not to mention playing Go, even the future history of the real world can be calculated. "

Xiao Jie thought it was true or not, but it felt so mysterious. Wouldn't it be like cheating with the group? Not to mention the immortal, even if the saint comes, it will be useless.

"Is this what your company is researching?"

"Well, that's not true, but it's still very powerful anyway. It's no problem to defeat ten alpha dogs."

Xiao Jie thought to himself that it would be no problem.

"Okay, that's it. How do you sell this transcendent phantom god?"

"This thing isn't for sale, but I can send you a beta version for technical testing."

"Beta version? Is that reliable? The opponent is a real master. This chess game is about my life and death. You must not cheat me."

"Damn, what age are we in? There are still experts. Experts can't stand it. Human chess players have no chance of winning against AI. Let's put it this way. Although this AI is a beta version, it can beat AlphaGo by more than ten times. , the iteration speed of AI is unimaginable. AlphaGo can basically crush all human chess players, and the Super Fantasy God can crush AlphaGo, so you can say whether it is powerful or not, as long as you play with others , there is no possibility of losing.”

"Please, how much is it?"

"It's okay to talk about money. When a new game comes out in the future, just help me get a few sets of equipment."

"It's a deal."

After a while, the other party sent a file.

Xiao Jie brought over another computer and took it in. Unexpectedly, it was quite big, over 100 gigabytes.

"Let me go, why is your file so big?"

"Nonsense, AI is not a simple electronic program, but... Damn, you won't understand even if I tell you, that's all."

Xiao Jie installed the program, clicked it, and a Go interface popped up. It looked quite rudimentary, so he probably didn't have time to make the interface yet.

However, the basic functions are still very complete. Xiao Jie tested it and made sure it worked. Then he returned to his computer and entered the game again.

"Immortal, I'm back." Xiao Jie said to the Taoist Shenji.

But Taoist Shenji smiled and said, "My little friend has never left, so how can we come back?"

"Haha, yes, yes, it's just a slip of the tongue. Strictly speaking, I just wandered away, so I came back. Come on, Taoist priest, let's start playing chess. I don't know how to calculate the rules of chess?"

"What are the rules? Black first, then white, then that's all."

Xiao Jie sighed for a moment, he was indeed an immortal, and his main theme was casualness.

In Go, the first mover advantage is very large. Therefore, different eras often have different rules. The most common one is the grid. For the sake of fairness, when the final calculation of the amount of land occupied by both sides is calculated, Black must deduct a certain number of grids. or subnumber.

But this immortal doesn't seem to have such particularity.

Xiao Jie asked tentatively: "Then who is black and who is white?"

Taoist Shenji smiled and said: "Haha, I just hold the black one."

This immortal feels quite confident.

"Then I'm not polite, so as long as I can win this game of chess, the immortal will let me go?"

"That's right."

"Then let's get started."

Xiao Jie said, opening the game program and choosing to let the AI ​​control black and himself to control white. However, in the game, he controls black and Taoist Shenji controls white.

Watch the AI ​​drop a piece on the chessboard.

Xiao Jie also followed suit and placed a piece on the same position on the chessboard.

"Hey, I've never seen such an opening before. It seems like I'm not good at chess, little friend." After the immortal finished speaking, he directly placed the white piece in Tian Yuan's position.

Although Xiao Jie is a novice at Go, he still knows the position of Tian Yuan. The key to playing Go is golden horns, silver edges, grass belly, and the one who plays Tian Yuan in the first step must be a rookie. This is how it is written in the novel.

I suddenly laughed in my heart, I don’t know who of us can’t play chess, what era is your chess skill, today I will let you feel the cyber shock.

He glanced at the computer next to him,

This AI program is really considerate, there is a win rate variable next to it, the opponent’s win rate of 47.9% directly became 38.2%.

In other words, in the eyes of the computer, this guy played a bad chess, but he is still showing off.

Looking at the computer again, it also responded.

Xiao Jie read from the script.

You go back and forth, and soon, the chessboard is full of chess pieces. Xiao Jie plays faster and faster. He is just copying the gourd, and the only worry is that he will accidentally click the wrong position. The immortal is playing slower and slower. At the beginning, he looked calm, but he frowned as he played, and sometimes he had to think for a long time about the next step.

"No, no! My chess skills were the best in Konglao Mountain back then. No other Qi-refining practitioner could beat me. How could this happen..." The Taoist Master Shenji kept muttering, holding the chess piece for a long time.

Xiao Jie was secretly happy in his heart. You are an immortal, so what? You still have to kneel down in front of my great AI.

"By the way, do you immortals play chess when you have nothing to do? From your appearance, it seems that the immortals' chess skills are not very good. Isn't it said that the immortals' chess skills are magical?"

The Taoist Master Shenji said helplessly, "Immortals are also human beings. They all practiced from mortals. This chess skill is about wisdom, not magic power."

Xiao Jie thought that it was true. Immortals are also human beings, but they have obtained extraordinary power and immortal life. They may not be much better than mortals in wisdom, just like the two people he met at the beginning, who were bought by a bottle of wine and a plate of food.

However, immortals also have their strengths, that is, endless lifespans. They play chess every day when they have nothing to do. After thousands of years, even the novice can become a Go master.

However, even if there are thousands of years, there are only a few million games in the world. For ordinary people, it is an astronomical number, but for AI, it is nothing. According to Zhang Xingwen, the number of games played by Go AI is calculated in millions, tens of millions, or even billions.

"Besides, I am not an immortal, but just a dog guarding the house."

Taoist Shenji said, with a hint of loneliness in his expression.

Xiao Jie heard it and understood what he meant. As a clone, although he has a certain amount of wisdom, he is ultimately driven by the original body.

He felt a little sympathetic to the person in front of him. He was imprisoned in this place for thousands of years just for a mission.

"Master, you must be very depressed here, right?"

"Haha, it's OK. I'm born good at chess. I can play chess with myself every day here, which is quite interesting. It's a pity that I can't leave here to find chess masters all over the world and learn from them. It's a pity. After all, I've been born for so long, and you're the first person to play chess with me. I didn't expect to meet such a master for the first time. I'm really happy."

Xiao Jie was a little surprised, "If I'm your first opponent, then what's wrong with you saying that no other Qi Refiners can beat me?"

"Strictly speaking, they can't beat my original body, but I have the same memory as my original body, so I say so."

Pah! Another word fell, and while he was talking, Xiao Jie had completed the siege. On the computer screen, the white chess piece was instantly eaten by a big dragon, and the whole chess game was completely clear.

Xiao Jie smiled and fell one word according to the AI's method.

The Taoist Master Shen Ji's face suddenly became helpless, "Alas, how could this happen, how could this happen! I lost."

"Haha, Taoist Master, thank you for letting me win."

"I didn't let you, kid, where did you learn your chess skills? How could you be so good? I have been playing against myself for thousands of years, and I think I am an excellent chess player, but I didn't expect that I would lose to you."

Xiao Jie laughed, "Oh, there is no way, some people are born smart, and I can't do anything about it. Now you can let me go."

"That's natural, I--not good!" The Taoist Master Shen Ji's face suddenly changed. He was still uneasy just now, but now he was completely like a disaster.

Xiao Jie felt bad, "What's wrong with the Taoist Master?"

Just then--

The Taoist Master Shen Ji suddenly burst out with a dazzling white light, and a trace of misery appeared on his face.

"My friend, it seems that our fate ends here. Alas, I didn't expect that I would be trapped here for thousands of years and still be reluctant to leave when I leave."

When the white light dissipated, the Taoist Master Shen Ji was still there, but his expression and appearance had changed a little.

Originally a rather gentle middle-aged Taoist, the person in front of him looked unusually young. His eyes were deep and profound, but his skin was smooth and white, like a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old. The black robe on his body also turned into a Qingxuan Taoist robe, with many patterns such as Zhoutian stars, Liangyi Bagua, etc. The stars on the Taoist robe were unpredictable, like a dynamic picture, and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary thing.

Look at the name on the head, it has also changed.

Shenjizi (Immortal Projection): Level 81. HP? ? ? ? .

Xiao Jie's heart jumped, and he vaguely guessed what happened.

This Shenjizi should be the Taoist Shenji who became an immortal, and the Taoist Shenji should be the clone left before he became an immortal, so there will be changes in appearance.

And this Taoist Shenji lost the game, and somehow the real owner noticed it, so he directly came to the world as a real immortal and went public through a backdoor listing, but in this way, the Taoist Shenji is afraid that he will be gone.

No wonder he was willing to wait here for thousands of years. If he didn't wait, he would probably be dead...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for these incarnations. They clearly had self-awareness and wisdom, but they were destined to be puppets that could be abandoned at any time.

"My friend, why don't you speak?" The person in front of him said indifferently. Although his tone was gentle, he had a supreme indifference that made people feel awe. He was completely different from the previous one. His eyes were careless, but just a casual glance, that feeling of being indifferent to everything, also made Xiao Jie feel pressured.

"Ah, this immortal, you and the one just now..."

"Haha, since my friend has already seen it, why bother pretending to be ignorant? There is no need to make so many twists and turns when talking to smart people, don't you think?"

This is a bit sharp.

"Ah, the immortal master actually saw through it. Hehe, sorry. After all, I am facing an immortal, so I am inevitably a little nervous."

"Don't be nervous. Immortals will not attack mortals at will, just like humans will not deliberately embarrass an ant, let alone a mortal who just defeated me. Although you only defeated the clone I left behind thousands of years ago, I was not yet an immortal at that time, but I already had some chess skills. But winning is winning, which is still quite rare.

I have to say that you have made me a little interested in you."

Xiao Jie felt a little uneasy. Using an ant as an analogy obviously means that he doesn't take himself seriously.

Yes, how can a small mortal of level 18 enter the eyes of an immortal.

But it still makes him very unhappy. When he met Kaiyang Xingjun and Tianxuan Zhenren, he was not treated like this. You are also immortals, and your attitude is too arrogant.

However, he did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

He had a feeling that the immortal in front of him would definitely not be as easy to talk to as the two he knew before. If he didn't handle it well, he might be crushed to death like an ant.

"Then immortal, can you let me pass?" Xiao Jie asked cautiously.

"No, you still need to beat me."

Xiao Jie was stunned, "Ah, but we clearly agreed just now."

"The one who agreed with you was the Taoist Shen Ji, and you are now facing Shen Ji Zi, which is not the same, but I won't bully you. The previous game is naturally still considered your win, but we have to win two out of three games. You need to win another game before I let you pass."

Xiao Jie was speechless. This is the fucking way you immortals play.

"Immortal, this is against the rules, right?"

"Hahahahaha." Shen Ji Zi suddenly laughed wildly, his face sank slightly, and his laughter stopped abruptly, "In this Konglao Mountain, I am the rule."

You! OK, OK, you are an immortal, you are amazing.

Xiao Jie was so angry that he wanted to smash the keyboard, but he didn't dare to.

Just as he was thinking about whether to argue again, he heard the God Machine say: "But I won't play with you for nothing. If you can beat me this time, I will not only let you pass, but also give you a pill."

As he waved his hand, a pill appeared out of thin air.

"This is a longevity pill, which can increase your life by ten years, enough to make up for the years you lost in the Wangliu River, and there is still room for improvement."

System prompt: Trigger the adventure event [Immortal's Gamble].

Task description: After successfully passing the third test, your superb chess skills unexpectedly attracted the projection of the real immortal God Machine. The other party is very interested in you and hopes to win two out of three games with you, and give you a pill as a prize...

Task goal: Defeat the God Machine in the chess game.

Task reward: Longevity pill × 1.

Damn, so cool! Ten years of life.

I am 27 years old this year, no - I wasted three or four years practicing swordsmanship before, and now I am actually in my early 30s.

If I can be ten years younger and turn back into a handsome 20-year-old boy, that would be amazing.

Of course, I can actually keep it for trading. How much would it sell for ten years of life? Anyway, my goal is to become an immortal through Qi refining. If I can succeed, I don't have to rush to eat this pill.

It's also good to use it to exchange for equipment and skill books.

Xiao Jie thought, then go for it.

The key is that it is not up to him whether to go for it now, and according to Zhang Xingwen, this AI is invincible in the world, and this immortal is strong in magic power, not brain, so it should be no problem.

Xiao Jie said solemnly: "Since the Immortal Master is determined to do so, I can only obey his orders. However, if I win another game, I believe that as the Immortal Master, he will not be angry with a mere mortal like me."

"Hahahaha." The Divine Machine Man laughed loudly. This time, he laughed very happily, without the weirdness of the previous time. However, the more he laughed, the more frightened Xiao Jie became.

"Of course, you are just a mortal, and you are not qualified to make me go back on my word - I will play the black chess piece this time."
