Chapter 164

A real mind reader! Very good! Very powerful! As expected of a high-level AI!

Lu Jia'er promptly dialed Ian again . “Apart from mind-reading, what other functions did I have?”

“Mind-reading is currently the most advanced technology!” Ian said .

He must be right, considering that mind-reading is often used as a superpower . Lu Jia'er followed up immediately with another question . “How about Su Han? Does she have any extraordinary functions?”

“She is one level lower than you so apart from having a particularly strong memory, reading and writing abilities, no other advanced functionality has developed within her yet . ” Ian said .

“How many advanced AIs with super powers like me are there? What is the point of creating us?” Lu Jia'er continued questioning him .

“I have nothing I can tell you about the first question . As for the point of creating you: to benefit humankind!” Ian told her everything that was within his liberty to tell .

Lu Jia'er sneered at the last four words . “To benefit humankind?”

Over the phone, Ian did not say anything . Lu Jia'er continued, “And you? Are you the same as us? Even if I did, you would have said 'no comment'!”

Ian hesitated a moment before he answered . “No, I am not the same as you . It's different . ”

All of a sudden, Lu Jia'er understood something . “Can I ask you something?” She said .

“What is it?” Ian kept his voice low .

“Do not let Su Han find out the truth!” Lu Jia'er said . “Let her continue to live in blissful ignorance, she does not know that she is an AI . I will carry the burden of this knowledge myself . ”

“That… is not up to you . ” Ian sounded a little hesitant .

Lu Jia'er laughed grimly when she heard this . “Right . I am nothing but an advanced AI . Who gave me the right to negotiate terms with you?”

“Jia'er!” Ian called her name, he sounded troubled .

“Did I say anything that isn't true?” Lu Jia'er retorted .

Ian fell into silence again . Lu Jia'er did not make things difficult for him . “I am going to hang up now . ”

It was 9:30 at night, when Jin Xiangdong came back home .

Lu Jia'er, who was in her leisure wear, understood instantly how she could be charmed by him the first time they met . She could not read his mind .

Lu Jia'er stepped over and took his briefcase and suit naturally .

Jin Xiangdong liked it when she did this . She was like a dream of his ideal newly-wedded wife . They were in sync and affectionate to each other .

Ake stayed on the side and looked . Ever since Lu Jia'er moved in, Ake felt like he was losing his job . Many things that had been taken care of by Ake had become Lu Jia'er's full responsibility .

Jin Xiangdong put his arm around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips . Ake turned around at once .

After sharing this moment of intimacy, the natural next step was to go upstairs in each other's embrace .

They went into the bedroom . Lu Jia'er pushed Jin Xiangdong away gently . “Ace, I have something to tell you . ”

Jin Xiangdong released Lu Jia'er and stared at her face attentively . After living together for these few days, they had reached a mutual understanding that they would discuss important matters after they were in the bedroom where signals were isolated .

“Ake has been hacked . ” Lu Jia'er said .

“When did that happen?” While Jin Xiangdong was not particularly shocked at this news, he was still nervous .

“This afternoon!” Lu Jia'er said .

“What happened?” Jin Xiangdong asked .

So, Lu Jia'er gave an account of the matter in full detail . Jin Xiangdong was taken aback . “Mind-reading?”

“Finally, I know why I fell in love with you at first sight!” Lu Jia'er said .

Jin Xiangdong looked at her . “Why?'

Lu Jia'er poked Jin Xiangdong's chest . “Because I cannot read anything from your mind!”

Jin Xiangdong stared at Lu Jia'er for a few seconds . He was still digesting the fact that she had a mind-reading ability . But his reply was, “Wait here!”

Jin Xiangdong let go of Lu Jia'er and left the room . When he came back after a moment, he was holding the camera in his hand .

“There is nothing on there!” Lu Jia'er reminded him .

However, Jin Xiangdong said, “Yes, there is . ”

Lu Jia'er was startled . Jin Xiangdong handed her the camera and the two sat by the bed to watch the video .

In the video, after Lu Jia'er sent the text, she sat on the couch like a puppet . Soon, she began to move . She looked at Ake who was filming her for a few seconds and stood up to take over the camera Ake was holding . She deleted the video and gave the camera back to Ake . Then, she sat back calmly and closed her eyes .

Lu Jia'er was in shock after she saw this video . Ake was not hacked . She deleted the video herself .

Jin Xiangdong was surprised to see this as well . “I didn't know that you could control other AI, but it's your ability to read minds that is far beyond expectations regardless . ”

“But Ian did not say that I could control other AI . ” Lu Jia'er said .

“The principle on how one can control other AI is not hard to explain . But it is completely unexpected that you have such special abilities of reading the mind!” Jin Xiangdong said .

“What were they trying to accomplish by creating something like me?” Lu Jia'er was baffled .

Jin Xiangdong frowned . He put his arm around Lu Jia'er's shoulders . “I will have to consult with some experts about the chip . ”

Lu Jia'er looked at Jin Xiangdong . “How to solve the problem of me having a chip in my brain?”

A couple of days ago, Jin Xiangdong brought back a so-called human health companion robot, the newest model produced by his company, and performed a close inspection on Lu Jia'er in this bedroom . The results showed that Lu Jia'er had human features but in her brain, there was a very small chip that was not made of metal . As for what it was exactly, Jin Xiangdong had no idea . However, this special material enabled Lu Jia'er to appear no different to any other human being when she entered metal detectors or did normal physical examinations .

“Yes . ” Jin Xiangdong said .

Lu Jia'er asked, “Are you going to take it out?”

Jin Xiangdong shook his head . “Taking it out is impossible . ”

“What do you mean?” Lu Jia'er looked at Jin Xiangdong .

“If I am right, once the chip is removed, you will be subject to unpredicted fatal danger . Besides, there may be self-destruction functionality built into this chip . Once tampering attempts are detected, the self-destruction program may be triggered before the chip is successfully removed . ” Jin Xiangdong shared his worries .

The reality they were faced with was truly horrifying .

“So, you think that the only solution to awaken my self-awareness and override the original program settings?” Lu Jia'er said .

Jin Xiangdong looked at her, depressed . “Yes, but I have yet to think up a way to accomplish this . ”

“Electric shock?” Lu Jia'er wondered .

Hearing this, Jin Xiangdong rubbed her hair .

“Deep learning?” Lu Jia'er continued .

The corners of Jin Xiangdong's mouth raised up . “Forget about it for now . ”

Lu Jia'er looked at him and said, “You have had a busy day . Go and take a shower!”

Ten minutes later, Jin Xiangdong stepped out of the bathroom . Lu Jia'er stared at his muscular upper body, exclaiming to herself that this must be what people said as slender when clothed, yet well-developed when nude .

The bed sank down as Lu Jia'er buried herself in his arms and leaned against his chest . “Ace, I have an idea . To achieve a breakthrough, I have to find my original memories . ”

“Your original memories?” Jin Xiangdong repeated her words, rubbing her shoulders .

“I have the feeling that my original memories are a switch to my awakening . ” Lu Jia'er recalled Ian's reaction and a.n.a.lyzed it . “It is unfortunate that Ian, an insider who is aware of my previous memories, is completely under the control of the team that created me . ”

Jin Xiangdong hugged her in closer and apologized . “I am so sorry that my investigation was not enough to find anything . ”

Jin Xiangdong truly blamed himself and seeing this, Lu Jia'er comforted him . “No . It is just that the team behind all this is too powerful . ”

As a matter of fact, the idea of creating a team like the one that developed an AI like Lu Jia'er to Jin Xiangdong was not only powerful, but terrifyingly so .

He wasn't sure if he even dared to think too deeply about it . He would get chills as soon as he thought about it .

The next morning, Jin Xiangdong woke up and lowered his head to look at Lu Jia'er who was curled up in his embrace . They were completely unclothed . Every morning when he woke up, that would wake up as well .

But today, Jin Xiangdong did not attempt to comfort it . He got up, put on the bathrobe and left the bedroom .

He came to the dining room downstairs . Ake soon served him a cup of coffee . Jin Xiangdong browsed the news on his phone and stumbled onto a report on memory genes .

That paper was published by a profession of the biology department in F University . The paper had stirred up heated discussion on the international stage .

When Jin Xiangdong finished reading this article, he phoned his sister Jin Xianglan at once .

She picked up her phone soon . Jin Xiangdong exchanged some pleasantries before he cut to the chase . “Sister, how effective is the process of recovering memory with genes?”

“Why… do you care about this all of a sudden?” Over the phone, Jin Xianglan sounded evidently surprised .

“I just saw a news article related to that . Since you are an expert in the field of biology, I want to know more about your opinions on the matter . ” Jin Xiangdong explained .

“So that's how it is . The research involved with recovering one's memories through genes was started a long time ago, but there hasn't been any new breakthroughs since the issue of creating new medicine is still unsolved . ” Jin Xianglan said .
