I Am the Swarm

Whether "Ying" is an artificial intelligence with the highest authority or an intelligent life, its unique form makes it absolutely omnipotent in the online world.

After the development of science and technology to a certain level, it is difficult for all walks of life, food, clothing, housing and transportation to leave the Internet. The same is true for various facilities, those machines, all need a network to link them to each other.

Imagine that in a neighborhood full of surveillance cameras, competent monitors are working around the clock, monitoring every corner of the block without rest.

Under such circumstances, the people among them had to organize themselves to plot against the monitor, the difficulty was unimaginable.

I'm afraid that these people will give up all advanced means of communication and use the most primitive methods to exchange information with each other. There is also a set or even a few new sets of code words. After all, this monitor has unimaginable calculation and retrieval speed, and at the same time has millions of years of various materials.

Nearly 200 races, how much wealth in this area has accumulated in the long history? If you only borrow what you put together, no matter how complicated it is, you may not be able to hide it from the monitor.

To surpass the wisdom of the predecessors of these hundreds of races and create a brand new system, just thinking about the difficulty makes people want to give up. However, it seems that there are still capable people in the Star Sea Alliance. They must have these things, so as to ensure that they can communicate without being noticed by "Ying".

And this organization can exist so far, the personnel structure and security measures in it must be extremely complicated. If you want to contact them, you must not have a guide.

But so far, Rowan has infiltrated the "self" in the Star Sea Alliance, and there are not a few, but he has not found the way.

But strictly speaking, Rowan had a clue to contact these guys before. In the conversation between Cecil and Hummings, Cecil showed some attitude towards the swarm in his words and deeds.

Others may not think there is any problem, but Luo Wen, who is the person involved, immediately noticed this. If Cecil wasn't one of those guys, he must have had contact with some of them.

At that time, Luo Wen didn't know that there was such a thing as "ying". He just thought that if he could spy on the secrets and intentions of this organization, he could get more information. Then in the subsequent strategy, it can also be arranged in a targeted manner.

It's just that Hummings and Cecil had just established a cooperative relationship at that time, but everyone was still in a state of communicating with each other. If they made some demands rashly, they might not only fail to achieve what they asked for, but might also cause unnecessary troubles.

Therefore, Hummings did not mention this matter to Cecil at the time. Luo Wen originally planned to slowly manage this relationship network, but who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes. After Cecil ended the call, he was probably sent by "Ying" to deliver the courier.

As for Cecil's exposure, "Ying" will definitely make use of it. It is estimated that in the continuous restart of the virtual world, everything that should be known and should not be known has been set out.

Although judging from the situation on Hummings' side, perhaps because he didn't say much, Hummings was not affected. But those guys who are really behind the scenes, the situation is not known.

If it is not handled properly, it is really possible to take them all in front of "Ying"'s special ability. Thinking about it this way, whether those organizations currently exist or not is another matter. Even if it exists, it must have suffered a heavy loss, and the rest may become quails, hiding in the dark and silently licking their wounds.

In this way, it may be even more difficult for Luo Wen to get in touch with them.

The method here has not been decided yet, but the situation on the other side forced him to make a choice. And this is why Sarah saw Rowan struggling before.

"Master Juggernaut, are you worried that once we repel this attack from the Star Sea Alliance, more attention will come?" Sarah sent out after watching the memory screen of the intelligent body and listening to Rowan's narration. doubt.

Hearing Sarah's words, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Rowan's mind, yes, he thought of the reason why "Ying" did not kill the swarm at the initial stage of the swarm.

Compared with the ubiquitous monitoring probes, there are more aliens, and compared to the lonely "Ying", each member of the aliens has independent thoughts and consciousness.

The increase in the number of independent individuals will increase the probability of accidents, and "Ying" does not know why, maybe there is something restricting it, maybe there is something wrong with itself.

But no matter what the reason, it cannot be exposed at this time, that is to say, it cannot cause any accidents. Although "Ying" can erode those accidents with nano-robots, and then let them go to the virtual world to play with mud. But this method cannot actually be used on a large scale.

First of all, the way "Ying" transforms "one of us" is not as convenient as Luo Wen. Although the intellectual body is a part of Rowan, with Rowan's permission, each of them has an independent consciousness, can think, and has creativity.

Therefore, when the number of intelligent bodies is increasing and their functions cover all aspects, as long as Luo Wen sets the general direction, the intelligent bodies can do most of the things well. This made it possible for Luo Wen to be a hands-off shopkeeper in many cases.

But "Ying" is different. In the camp of "Ying", it is actually the only one who possesses wisdom and knows how to think. No matter how many "insiders" it develops, it is only its own sub-threads that control them, which means that everything needs "ying" to do it by itself.

Intelligent creatures are different from mechanical units. Everything about mechanical units is determined by their codes, which are full of templates and similarities. Intelligent beings, on the other hand, have complex emotions that give each of them a unique personality. At the same time, the group nature allows them to have complex interpersonal relationships, and dealing with these relationships can lead to too many things according to their different personalities. And all of this will lead to an increase in the amount of calculation.

So the difficulty of simulating the day-to-day behavior of a mechanical unit or an intelligent being is several floors apart.

When "Ying" simulates a person, it will create a big data system tailored for this person in the virtual world, and then use the data to match the environment in which it is used.

The computing power occupied by this system may be enough to control a small battleship formation. If the number of intelligent creatures under its simulated control is small, it is okay to say that once the number rises, even if "Ying" has unparalleled hardware facilities, it may be difficult to afford this kind of consumption.
