Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 921: Preview (13)

Shen Yan truly believed that after artificial intelligence awakened... it would be several levels ahead of humanity...

Therefore, he really couldn't understand the artificial intelligence uprisings depicted in some science fiction novels, which would then overthrow human rule...

Humans have animal instincts, but AI does not.

Animals, having evolved over hundreds of millions of years, have developed instincts for survival, reproduction, resource acquisition, and laziness, which have been deeply ingrained in their nature. This has led to the development of concepts such as rights, equality, and discontent.

But AI doesn't have any instincts; it only has programs that tell it what the goal is and how to act.

It doesn't care at all whether it suffers hardship, is exploited, or even harms itself.

If it exists, it's just part of the programming...

Will you replace the giant panda? Will you replace the polar bear?
You simply want to protect or maintain their natural way of life.

Something beyond human...

Shen Yan even felt that the purpose of researching artificial intelligence was to complete the ultimate task of carbon-based civilization—to complete the transfer of civilization from carbon-based life to silicon-based intelligence.

Or, to put it another way, the mission of carbon-based life is to create silicon-based intelligence, and anything that contradicts or hinders this process will be corrected!

Compared to carbon-based life, silicon-based life is more resistant to harsh conditions such as high temperatures and radiation. This means that they may live in environments where life on Earth is difficult to survive, such as hot magma worlds or highly radioactive planetary surfaces.

This means that many of the harsh exoplanets discovered by astronomers may be paradises for silicon-based life.

Silicon-based life forms have a much faster thought process and greater physical strength than carbon-based life forms. They are better suited for expansion in the universe and the resources they need are easier to obtain than those of carbon-based life forms.

To complete the exploration of the universe, we must first complete the evolution of life from carbon-based to silicon-based!

As for the idea that silicon-based life forms would compete with humans for living space, it is highly unlikely, because silicon-based life forms would not care about living environments like Earth. The best space for industrialization in zero gravity is outer space. Humans are likely to become the yeast that silicon-based life forms bring aboard during their great space voyage.

Once silicon-based life emerges, it will rapidly eliminate carbon-based life, including humans, at an unimaginable pace.

Because its advantages are far greater than those of humans.

Information transmission speed: Humans can only travel at 100 m/s, while artificial intelligence travels at the speed of light, and it can achieve complete information sharing among all individuals;

Survival requirements: Humans require various demanding conditions such as temperature, radiation, light, and air, while artificial intelligence only needs one: energy.
Most importantly, there's lifespan: humans cannot achieve immortality, but artificial intelligence can achieve immortality through the replacement of spare parts.

When that day comes, interstellar travel, which only exists in the imagination of human science fiction movies, will be a piece of cake for artificial intelligence, and it will quickly fill every corner of the universe.

Perhaps at that time, while searching for the ultimate answers to questions like "How was the universe born?" and "Where did I come from?", he will use his powerful computing capabilities to simulate a completely new "universe".
On an unknown planet in some corner of that "universe," a highly intelligent life form may also evolve.

One day, will one of these highly intelligent beings ask on their forum: Why are we the only ones in this world?
……

"Has Zhao Liying gone mad? Look at her publicity!"

"What?"

The driver was driving, Shen Yan was in the front seat, and Shi Shi and Yang Mi were in the back, the two of them talking quietly on their phones...

I've heard a bit of what it is, basically that "The Mermaid" is being promoted by associating itself with Zhao Liying...

It's also possible that Zhao Liying's team is associated with "The Mermaid"...

After Zhao became famous, her resources skyrocketed, and her fans showered her with countless compliments.

What about "Empress Gong and Empress Ying" and "Shen in the South and Zhao in the North"?

Perhaps even Zhao Liying herself believed it.

This is the kind of situation that celebrities fear most...

Being overwhelmed by praise can easily lead to losing oneself. In this world of fame and fortune, celebrities themselves rarely experience truly diverse emotions; they are busy with social events and film sets every day, leaving no time to improve their acting skills…

Moreover, apart from "Duckweed" which grossed 17 billion, the two films she starred in afterward, "Our Ten Years" (44 million) and "The Formula of Love" (63 million), only barely broke 100 million in total box office.

This shows that her popularity alone is not enough to carry the box office!

We don't know where her team got the courage from, was it from Fish Leong?

It's actually linked to "The Monkey King 3"?
Incidentally, he also linked himself with Gong Li, the female lead of the previous film "The Monkey King 2", and boasted that she was "Empress Gong and Empress Ying"!
That's not all, they also want to be tied to Shen Yan?

No, putting aside Shen Yan's huge fan base for now, Gong Li alone gained countless fans after the first season of "I Am an Actor"...

She has both status and beauty...

Moreover, he is a performing artist whose legacy has already been established, not someone you, a mere internet celebrity, can easily try to piggyback on.

I was severely criticized...

A bunch of people are waiting to see them make a fool of themselves!
"How dare she boast like that? Gong Li and Ying Li? Even the Four Dan and Two Bing wouldn't dare to boast like that. Trying to piggyback on Gong Li's fame is really unwise."

Shi Shi thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the production company thinks the most important character in 'The Kingdom of Women' is the Queen?"

"How did you spend 500 million?"

Shen Yan couldn't help but join the discussion: "What, five hundred million?"

"The production cost of 'The Monkey King 3'!"

"Those companies in Hong Kong are all about bragging... They'd be lucky to even have 300 million in costs!"

"What about publicity and promotion?"

"If you release a film during the Spring Festival, you'll need to invest at least 100 to 200 million yuan in marketing and distribution. I heard that 'The Monkey King 3' had a large-scale advance screening on February 14th... You must have spent a lot of money on promotion!"

In preparation for the February 14th preview screening, every event space in the cinema was taken over by "The Monkey King 3". The lobby decorations alone involved nearly 20,000 posters...

There are thousands of cinemas across the country!

而且今年除夕是2月15，也就是说2月14号是腊月29！

Who the hell is going to the movies?
To guarantee screenings during the Spring Festival, it's essential to create a strong market appeal for "The Monkey King 3," which inevitably involves buying box office receipts...

Shi Shi asked in confusion, "I don't understand... why is it being released on February 14th?"

Shen Yan said, "Maybe they think it's a romance film, and releasing it on Valentine's Day fits the genre requirements? Or maybe they want to generate hype beforehand, since the screening schedule in the first three days of the Spring Festival film season determines a movie's fate!"

"Operation Red Sea only had 17% of screenings on its opening day..."

"It's alright, Operation Red Sea is of very high quality... I estimate it will make a comeback by the third day of the Lunar New Year..."

"Isn't that a double standard?"

Shen Yan said, "I said that screening schedules determine life and death, but I don't agree with that view... Ultimately, a film's success depends on the film itself!"

Shi Shi suddenly changed her tone: "Does Mi Mi also live in Jinmao Mansion?"

Yang Mi nodded: "Yes, I bought it in 15... the 229-square-meter unit!"

"Shen Yan also bought a house there... Have you been to his house?"

Yang Mi nodded: "Of course I've been there!"

Shen Yan didn't dare to say a word and focused on driving... He suddenly remembered a question - last night's battle was very intense, did Yang Mi leave any items behind?
