Interdimensional science and technology starting from cyberpunk

Birds chirp.

This is something that Night City doesn't have.

Birds have been wiped out of Night City, supposedly due to an outbreak of avian influenza.

However, this statement is obviously unreliable, because without the birds, the slums of Night City have become garbage pits full of insects and rats, and the mayor has not seen help in exterminating cockroaches and other pests.

So why were birds extinct?

No one knows the real reason, but from now on, the sky in the Night City only belongs to high-rise buildings and floating vehicles.

Yesterday I took an immunosuppressive pill and went to bed. I woke up early and arrived in New York.

"There are no ads, the sun is shining, and there are birds chirping - I have to say that this day is indeed much better than the one in Night City."

Leal stood up from the bed.

Hell's Kitchen is much better than the slums of Night City, but of course, it's only compared to Night City.

Mom knocked on the door: "Lille--have you gotten up? It's time to have breakfast."

"coming."

Get dressed and start your day in New York.

It's just that the immune response is a bit severe and the body has little strength.

At the dinner table, Skye said mysteriously: "Boss, let me show you my new AI."

"Not bad--very good. I've tried it."

Skye froze.

Lear took a sip of milk: "Have you ever thought about expanding this AI? For example, extending it to public safety and civilian Internet."

Lille didn't add much - not only had he tried it, but he had even killed several people.

"Boss, we are like heroes. In fact, I already have an idea, but the current processor is not very easy to use."

"Before we start discussing technical issues." Lear wiped his mouth, "I want to talk about some moral issues, so that you will not be tricked by some hacker organization into causing trouble in the future."

There is no big problem with the framework of traffic AI. The next step is to extend this AI to other fields.

In terms of public security, it can be extended to behavioral monitoring. By analyzing citizens’ occupations, habits, families, movement trajectories, etc., the possibility of a citizen being involved in an ongoing crime or even predicting the possibility of a crime can be determined.

In the civilian field, it is naturally more accurate content push. If you like funny videos, push funny videos to you; if you like conspiracy theories, push conspiracy theories to you.

Both of these functions have a usage problem.

In terms of public safety, ctOS can predict the existence of criminals, but how to define criminals?

Feudal lords considered runaway serfs criminals, loan sharks considered it a crime to pay principal and interest, and factory owners considered working less than 12 hours a day a crime.

Well, it's laziness.

Defining crime is a sociological question.

The same goes for push expansion in the civilian field.

Increase user stickiness by pushing content that users are highly interested in, and induce users to stay on the Internet to earn profits.

But if everyone is addicted to false happiness, how can they achieve themselves in reality?

Easy-to-obtain happiness is only a small problem if intensive tendency induction is carried out through ctOS.

For example, when cheating content is pushed to newlyweds, the content is highly customized based on marital life.

If your partner goes out at eight in the morning and comes home at ten in the evening, it may be for work, but it may also be for cheating.

Never mentioning work, but pushing a large amount of cheating content, will naturally make people feel uneasy and slip into the abyss of doubt.

It’s a marriage, but what if the inducement is an election?

It can even be rougher - push a competitor's message at crowded traffic intersections, noisy pedestrian streets, and smelly garbage disposal plants, and people will be as bored with the candidate as Baby Albert (Note 1) .

".If the model you mentioned is completed, politicians will definitely come to your door. Do you understand?"

High-tech is the breakthrough point in politics, military technology is the more violent type, and civilian technology is the slightly milder type, but the two are brothers - or the same thing.

Skye stared and shook her head.

"Boss, you sound like we will become the mastermind behind controlling the world."

"In August 1942, when Oppenheimer was appointed director of the Manhattan Project, he had no idea what he would build -

But we all know now, believe me, this technology appears in the country with the most powerful military strength, and its value is no less than the atomic bomb. "

"Then what should we do?" Skye said carefully, she felt that Lear was serious.

Hackers are a group that is hard to give up, but once they decide that someone is better than themselves, they will have more trust in this smart person to the extent that they doubt the world.

In Skye's eyes, Lear has surpassed the level of "top hacker" and is a super all-rounder.

"We." Reed paused.

The so-called political differences are problems that have not yet been solved in human society. How can he say that they have been solved?

"We remain neutral and only provide convenience services - although I am not sure which politicians are good, at this point in time,

Providing people with a better commuting situation, pushing content-rich technology to those who need it, and helping them find jobs is definitely not a wrong choice——

By the way, there are also catching criminals. How is the situation with the NYPD recently? "

"Well, there should be news this morning. The NYPD is very proud now and reports on it once a week."

With that said, Skye turned on the TV.

“According to NYPD reports, the soaring crime rate has been under control in the past three weeks, with the growth rate reducing to 1.2% from 5.6% three weeks ago.

The crime detection rate has increased from 20% to 39%. The crime rate in Clinton District, New York's hardest-hit area, has even experienced negative growth, with the growth rate reduced from the previous 14.6% to 5%.

The increase in the crime detection rate is significantly higher than that in other urban areas, with an increase of up to 120%, and the detection rate has reached 42%. "

Lille looked strangely after reading this string of data.

Is this good?

Forget it, this is New York after all, so we can’t criticize him too much.

"Oh, by the way, Anthony said Chief Stacey wants to deepen cooperation and install our security network throughout the Clinton District, but the council members are very opposed."

Lear raised his eyebrows: "What then?"

"Then this congressman may fall off the altar. It seems that he appeared once two weeks ago, and then a poll was conducted, and he has never appeared in the public eye again."

Skye shrugged: "Speaking of which, you have to thank Anthony for his loud voice. When the congressman was preaching, he was two streets away.

As soon as his people finished listening to Anthony's speech, they ran to throw bottles and cans at the congressmen. The scene was spectacular. "

There are still a lot of good people in Hell's Kitchen - it's a pity that no one with enough sense came to give the old guy a kick.

Leal thought for a moment and asked: "Where is United Construction Company?"

"Quite honest, busy building a house, but" Skye hesitated, "Boss, I found something in their email. It is said that the building across the street can be sold for several million.

The land price has increased several times all of a sudden, if people here see it."

"Then you see it." Lille spread his hands, "You don't think that in this situation, it is the common people who are driving up housing prices, right?

Maybe he is laundering the money himself. If the time comes, keep an eye on him more, and you will be done with leaking some gossip to your old friends. "

Skye was stunned for a moment: "Boss, you are really good at guessing. This money came from overseas. It is not clear."

“Let’s do our jobs, municipalities, companies, there are so many things that can be done, just throw this thing in the forum of rising tide and forget about it.”

After finishing speaking, Leal put the sandwich into his mouth and wiped his hands.

When he looked up, he saw his mother looking at him kindly and then burst into laughter.

Lear was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand to wipe his cheek.

"Mom, why are you laughing? You scared me."

"I just feel like you are really like a little boss. John left you a memo - don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Lear shrugged: "This? This is not pressure."

After saying that, Lear looked at Skye again--

"Actually, I already have a complete idea about this set of technologies, but I'm thinking of using a special way to let you understand these things."

"what way?"

"Do you like playing games?"

Note 1: Similar to Pavlov's dog, the experimenter brought rats, rabbits, dogs and monkeys in front of baby Albert, and there was no abnormal reaction.

The subject then hit the steel rod when taking out these things, making a scary noise. Over time, baby Albert would become frightened and uncomfortable when seeing these things.
