International students at Hogwarts

Chapter 26 The Portrait of the Mysterious Girl

When Grindelwald was helping to carry out the "Deworming Operation" in the Soviet Union, Lu Ren was doing experiments at Hogwarts-he knew nothing about this operation destined to shock the world.

After all, he was just talking, and it was Grindelwald and his saints who really took action.

Lu Ren's life is now back on track.In the morning, he went to do odd jobs in Professor Snape's laboratory, and in the free time in the afternoon, he wandered around the castle and explored.

"Today's topic is "Random Detection of the Moving Direction of Hogwarts Staircase"," Lu Ren wrote and drew in a small notebook while talking to himself.

Rowena Ravenclaw has done many things, and the one that makes Lu Ren most unhappy is to enchant the stairs to make them move non-stop.

This has brought about very bad consequences: Lu Ren often gets lost in the castle, and it is quite difficult to solve this problem by going back the same way-you never know when the next staircase will come, and you will It's unclear if this staircase will return you to where you came from.

Lu Ren couldn't figure out what kind of mentality Ms. Ravenclaw had in order to enchant almost all the stairs in Hogwarts and make them move around Jill.

But as a person with rational thinking, he should try to solve this problem.

It's very simple, if you can grasp the law of the operation of the stairs, then as long as you mobilize the students to sum up the law, then everyone will not get lost.

Ideal is plump, reality is skinny.

"Too much!"

It has been three days since I returned to Hogwarts, but Lu Ren only summed up the operation rules of less than 140 stairs, and there are as many as [-] stairs in Hogwarts! ——What's more frightening is that Lu Ren discovered that the rules summarized before are only applicable to that day for some stairs...

For example, some stairs lead to different places every Friday; some go up halfway, a step will suddenly disappear, and if someone sinks in, it will lead to a different end...

"First go up and then to the left, then go down and then return to the original place... The seventh step cannot stay for more than three seconds... The same person or people with the same weight cannot step on the first, fourth, fifth and third-to-last steps. Once again, if all the stairs are stepped on, it will stop running for five minutes and 29 seconds..."

Lu Ren was writing furiously.This is the No.18 staircase he investigated.He has spent three hours today on this staircase.As boring as it may seem, the fun of finding easter eggs at school is endless.

"Hey, my old chap, I bet the idiot's got another hour in here!"

"I guess two hours!"

"I feel like he'll be gone in five minutes!"

Lu Ren heard whispers behind him, and he turned his head to look at the source of the sound. It was a portrait talking.Hogwarts portraits are talking.Lu Ren has long been used to it.He knew that these portraits sometimes chased students, sometimes sang loudly, but most of the time they were doing the same actions, such as drinking, fencing or something.

Just like the npc in online games.

But it was the first time he interacted with the portrait.He had always treated them as gifs before.

Lu Ren walked slowly towards the portrait.Inside the portrait are four chubby monks drinking and frolicking together.Suddenly he heard a crisp voice: You are doing useless work.

He was attracted by the sound, and looked along the source of the sound, it was the neighbor of the betting portrait who was speaking.

Next door to the fat monk was a young girl with pale blond hair, dressed in Greek-style attire, holding a spindle in her hand, and the other was holding a red thread with no end in it.

"What's your name?" Lu Ren asked curiously.

"The name is just a code name of life, and it is irrelevant. Seeing that you have wasted too much time there, I take the liberty to bother you."

The girl in the portrait replied.

"So Miss, do you know what I was doing just now?"

"Um, I saw you going up and down the stairs, stopping to write something now and then."

Lu Ren became more and more curious about the weaving girl in the painting.Her answer just now shows that she can perceive the existence of the outside world. She can see what I am doing and interact with me.This shows that she has enough wisdom!
If she can have the same wisdom as a living person, that would be really amazing!This is equivalent to the realization of a goal that Muggles have been pursuing in the wizarding world: artificial intelligence.

This thing was not really realized until Lu Ren crossed over.In the previous life, no computer passed the Turing test until June 2014, 6, but later there were articles pointing out that it did not really pass the test...

Lu Ren plans to conduct more tests on her next, to analyze how smart she is, whether it is a super artificial intelligence, or a program with good enough instructions.

"Miss, where are you from?" Lu Ren asked.

"I'm from an ancient city-state in the east, but you, judging by your appearance, don't look like an Englishman."

"Yes, I'm from the Central Plains."

"Central Plains, I miss you so much..."

"By the way, do you know what year it is?"

“你居然问我这样的问题……这种问题你作为外界的人应该比我清楚才是，让我想想……今年好像是公元1991年……8月……嗯……3日！对1991年8月3日！”

Lu Ren became serious.According to the question and answer, it can be basically concluded that the young lady in front of her is wise, and she can even feel the passage of time in the outside world!
Next, he will conduct further tests.

"I want to ask you a few more questions."

"Ask, ask, anyway, you've already asked a lot of questions. I just don't have any work at hand, but you've been wasting your time." The spindle girl was a little impatient, but decided to answer the kid in front of her. The problem.

Lu Ren decided to start with the simplest Turing test.

The Turing test is a very famous experiment proposed by Turing in 1950 to judge whether a machine can think. He can test whether a machine can show intelligence that is equivalent to or indistinguishable from humans.

To put it simply, the Turing test is a person, we use A to refer to him, and he asks a bunch of questions about two objects he cannot see.Among these two objects, object B is a human being, and the other object C is a machine.If, after several interrogations, A cannot draw a substantial difference between B and C, then machine C passes the Turing test.

"The cat is sitting on the blanket because it is warm. What is warm? The cat is sitting on the blanket because it is cold. What is cold?" Lu Ren asked a very classic question in the Turing test.
