The End of the World: Chaos

"Then there's no need to ignore it, right?" Ruth broke the silence with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.

"It's been too long, too intermittent. Besides, the level of the battle is too weak. When the outcome is already determined, there's no need to pay attention!" Yang Yi looked up and responded, with a determined look in his eyes.

Ruth seemed dissatisfied with the answer. She pouted slightly and asked doubtfully, "Well, whatever you said makes sense. So, what are you doing now?"

"I didn't do anything. I just heard that Master Tony seemed to be working on something new recently, so I planned to go and take a look and study it at the same time!" Yang Yi smiled slightly and gently placed a small device in his hand on the table.

"So, have you researched anything?" Ruth's curiosity was aroused, and her eyes were shining with anticipation.

"Yes, the result is really unexpected." Yang Yi shook his head, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "What kind of rubbish has he come up with again? This guy is really a disaster!"

"Disaster?" Ruth was slightly stunned, and ominous images flashed through her mind. She asked with concern: "What is it?"

Yang Yi sorted out his thoughts a little and said slowly: "Because of the triple pressure from me, the battle in New York, and Master Yi, Master Tony has been playing with artificial intelligence recently. Moreover, it is not the disguised Jarvis, but the real artificial intelligence!"

"You mean, he actually tried to redevelop AI?" Ruth's expression became serious, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes. "This is not a good idea!"

"I think so too." Yang Yi sighed helplessly, "Although there is no Wanda's guidance to see some bad future in the short term, under such great pressure, Tony still chose the path of seeking death again. He has now successfully developed the basic framework of artificial intelligence."

"That sounds bad. What's the name of this artificial intelligence?" Ruth clenched her hands, looking very nervous.

"The name is still the same, Ultron." Yang Yi's tone gradually became serious, as if he was worried about the future development of the situation. "Unfortunately, he still didn't learn his lesson and didn't take any insurance measures. He didn't consider the possibility that it might get out of control."

"Isn't this exactly what we are most afraid of right now?" Ruth's face was full of resentment, and her voice was anxious. "How could Tony be so careless? Has he forgotten the lesson he learned before?!"

Yang Yi shook his head slightly, took a deep breath, and responded slowly: "He seems to be a genius, but in fact he often ignores the most basic risks. It's okay now, but if there are even a few changes in the future, it may lead to a new wave of self-destruction."

Ruth pursed her lips, obviously not so optimistic about this. "What do you think Ultron will do? Will he really get out of control?"

"From what I know about Tony..." Yang Yi pondered for a moment, "His ambition is undoubtedly huge. He wants to create a being that transcends humans, but obviously, Tony may not be able to control such a being."

Ruth's eyes flashed with worry. She leaned forward slightly and whispered, "Then what should we do? Should we just let Ultron grow? This will be a huge threat!"

Yang Yi smiled slightly, but his eyes were glittering with cunning. "I never intended to let it go. I will pay close attention to Tony's scientific research trends, and if necessary, I will definitely stop him. But before that, I need more information."

"You mean... we should observe secretly?" Ruth looked thoughtful with a determined look.

"That's right." Yang Yi's tone became deeper. "We must understand everything, especially Tony's experimental steps and specific progress. Only by mastering the core data can we launch a favorable counterattack when the crisis comes."

"But if we intervene rashly, it will inevitably arouse Tony's vigilance." Ruth frowned, "Then he will do his best to block the information and even become hostile to us."

"I know, so in the next stage, we need to pretend that nothing happened." Yang Yi raised his hand and motioned her to rest assured, "I will use some tricks at the appropriate time to contact the people around Tony and obtain more inside information."

Ruth nodded. Although she still had some doubts in her heart, she was relieved by her trust in Yang Yi. "So, what should we do first?"

"The first step is to continue our normal work, keep in touch with Tony, and pay attention to his words and deeds." Yang Yi replied calmly, "In addition, I will arrange for people to try to obtain relevant technical information to see how far Tony has come in artificial intelligence."

"I understand." Ruth's expression became unusually serious. "I will help you collect data and understand the situation as soon as possible."

At this moment, the door of the laboratory was suddenly pushed open, and Tony Stark strode in, followed closely by his assistant Pepper. Tony's face looked a little excited, "Hey, I just made a major breakthrough! You two come and take a look!"

"Oh, Tony, what are you doing again?" Yang Yi smiled with satisfaction, thinking to himself that he could seize this opportunity to get some information. "Whatever it is, we are very interested."

Tony glanced at Ruth and shook a piece of metal plate in his hand. "Look, this is the prototype of the first stage of Ultron that I just developed. It is capable of simple self-learning and decision-making!"

Yang Yi's heart sank, and he pretended to be calm and asked, "What about its alarm system? Has it set up relevant safety measures?"

"Safety measures?" Tony looked up in surprise, then said confidently: "Of course! I will gradually add corresponding restrictions after it is fully mature. There is no need to consider these at this stage!"

Ruth frowned and exchanged opinions secretly, feeling more and more uneasy. Yang Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, but his heart was already alarmed, and he must not let Tony continue to go against the flow.

"That's good." He smiled gently on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking about how to dig deeper into Tony's plan.
