My own war game

Chapter 388 KITT/Carl
"Player, according to the principles of the system, I cannot give any suggestions that would harm all of humanity."

He Chi had heard this tone before.

In his world, Carl, the basic intelligence model left by KITT, once said something similar.

"AI's logical locks will not allow it to actively harm humans, but AI may induce humans to harm themselves." He Chi pondered this sentence over and over again.

Is the system some kind of super-high-level artificial intelligence? It wants to guide me to constantly master various types of weapons. What exactly does it want to achieve?
Minerva.

The moment he opened the door to his room, He Chi hesitated for a moment. Will KITT be like Carl...

Bang! There was a loud noise in the bedroom all of a sudden.

A bad premonition came to his mind, and He Chi hurriedly opened the door. The scene before him almost made him think he had walked into the wrong room.

The floor was littered with scribbled manuscripts, many of which were "free creations" of weapon designs. KITT was lying upside down on the table, his auxiliary limbs kicking constantly - he seemed to have fallen from a great height.

He Chi walked over and found that the spider machine's secondary legs were covered with gel. The little guy seemed to have treated the house as an ice rink.

Isn’t this a typical naughty child?
All the previous worries disappeared in an instant, and He Chi even thought that he was a little too sensitive.

"KITT, what are you doing?" He Chi asked, pretending to be angry.

The little spider stood up in a hurry, with gel splashing everywhere. It waved its forelimbs as if to express something.

"Okay, okay, no need to explain. Pack up the things and hide them. Don't let anyone find them." He Chi, who was pressed for time, didn't say much. Instead, he waved his hand and walked into the house. Soon he disappeared from KITT's sight.

KITT stayed on the ground with his head tilted for a while, then stepped back and used his compound eyes to observe the long gel trace he had left behind, and then collected the scattered drawings on the ground.

The way it stares at the drawing is like it is thinking like a human.

Finally, the little spider stretched out his forelimbs, dipped them in ink, and changed a certain value marked on a drawing.
-
In the main world, the villa where He Chi lives.

"Sign here. If there are no problems, the relevant procedures will be completed within a week."

"Lawyer," James Pierce said, placing his hand on the spot on the contract.

However, out of friendship, the document dealer added, "Are you sure you want to do this? This lab will cost almost all of the dividends you saved during my generation."

He Chi picked up the pen and signed the document without hesitation, then handed it back to Pierce. "That's it. Mr. Craig has suffered such a huge loss, so he should be compensated."

Not long ago, He Chi spent a lot of money to buy a bankrupt robotics laboratory and handed it over to Professor Craig for management, not seeking output, but only to give himself peace of mind.

This is about KITT's compensation.

KITT’s significance to him is no longer just a machine assistant. Even if he takes it out of the copy one day in the future, it will be difficult for him to return the little robot to the professor.

He knew it was selfish, but he really meant it.

Therefore, doing his best to compensate the professor was his choice at the moment.

Surprisingly, the professor was in a good mood and seemed to have quickly recovered from the loss of his hard work.

When He Chi went to the laboratory for the first time, the professor was eating a hamburger at the operating table, and the chopped onions and cheese kept falling on the table around him.

"BOSS, you seem to be in a good mood. Is your recent project going well?" He Chi closed the door and began to greet the professor.

"He, we need to change the way we address each other. After all, you are my boss now." Professor Craig ate the burger in his hand and joked casually, which was a far cry from his previous depressed look.

"Professor, regarding KITT, I..." "He, that's great. I have something I want to show you."

Before He Chi could finish speaking, Professor Craig grabbed He Chi by the collar and dragged him into an independent laboratory.

The room was large and had no furniture, so it looked a bit empty. The stadium logo was drawn on the floor with a white marker.

A dozen wheeled robots that are slightly larger than KITT and look like small vehicles are working together...

Um...playing football?

These robots have no human operators and appear to be operating based on autonomous programs. They are divided into groups of seven, and there is even a green-painted guy in the middle acting as a referee.

No wonder the professor was in such a good mood, it turns out he had a new love.

"Are these your new inventions?" He Chi asked as he looked at the robots scrambling for seats in the venue.

"No, these football robots are two years old technology. This is not what I asked you to see." The professor shook his head and denied He Chi's statement. He pointed to the center of the field and said, "Look carefully. There is a different one inside."

"Oh?" Seeing the professor's look, He Chi also became interested. He began to concentrate his eyes and carefully observe the situation in the field.

Sure enough, a robot from the yellow team was particularly agile. It dodged two opponents and rushed into the "forbidden zone".

And just when it was about to shoot, another opponent rushed up to intercept it.

Boom! !

The two robots collided, and the one from the yellow team was actually knocked over!

Beep, beep, beep!!! The referee robot's unique voice sounded, and the screen on its face showed a red card. The blue team's opponent obediently turned around and left the field.

Hechi seemed to have noticed something. "Doctor, the collision just now didn't seem that intense."

"Oh, you figured it out?" The doctor smiled happily. "These robots are equipped with counterweights at the bottom. Under normal circumstances, they will never tip over easily."

"So what happened just now is..."

"You guessed it right, that guy just faked a fall." Mr. Craig pointed at the upside-down little thing.

"Fake fall? Robot?! Is it written in the program?" He Chi asked in surprise.

"Of course not. The program logic I set for these robots only has basic football rules. In other words, they learned the trick of diving by themselves."

"Is this guy unusual?" He Chi asked as he looked at the little thing that had already stood up.

"Yes, actually you have seen it before. It is the newly generated AI by the logic group left by KITT - Carl." The doctor spoke in the tone of a parent showing off his child's academic performance.

The venue was cleared and the other robots lined up aside. Only the little guy who had faked a fall just now staggered over.

"He, I have to thank you. If it weren't for what happened before, I wouldn't have been able to find Carl." The professor picked up the robot and said excitedly.

"Carl is better?" He Chi asked tentatively.

"That's not quite accurate. It has the same curiosity as KITT, but the difference is that KITT likes to study the rules more deeply, while Carl will try to use the rules within the framework of logic."
