Chapter 380

Three days later, all personnel of the National Laboratory received a message.

To improve the performance of the central supercomputer "Pioneer" and better serve laboratory personnel, a general large-model artificial intelligence has been deployed in "Pioneer." From now on, calling Pioneer in any location where "Pioneer" can perceive, such as networked cameras, microphones, and other networked devices, you can get support and help from the other party at any time.

At the same time, from now on, any project in the National Laboratory needs to be supervised and collaborated by Pioneer.

At the same time, to expand the coverage of Pioneer, the National Laboratory began to launch wireless network equipment, mobile office equipment, etc. on a large scale, and gradually updated various scientific research facilities of the National Laboratory so that they could access the Pioneer network.

With these actions, Murphy had tens of thousands more eyes, thousands of ears, and hundreds of mobile robots.

Any movement in the entire laboratory could not escape his eyes.

At the same time, with the support of Pioneer's computing power, Murphy used the mind network much more unscrupulously than in the past.

UK, 10 Downing Street.

Patrick was having a small meeting with the Secretary of State for Defence, and the other party was reasoning with him one by one.

The current British Navy is no longer what it was in the days of the Empire on which the sun never sets. It cannot deal with the provocative actions of the United States near the Mediterranean, so it is best not to stimulate them...

After all, the Soviet Union is too far from the UK. Although the strength of the Soviet Union will indeed make other European countries wary, it is best for us to take care of their feelings and ease the relationship with France...

Suddenly, a voice came from his mind, "You should fire this guy."

"Murphy?"

Suddenly Murphy appeared on his right, sitting in a chair, "Meaningful suggestions should of course be listened to, but this guy has no solution other than pouring cold water on you. Fire him, it's annoying to look at."

However, as he spoke, the Secretary of State for Defence acted as if he didn't hear it, still talking to Patrick. Seeing Patrick a little distracted, he stopped, "Prime Minister?"

Patrick immediately realized that the other party couldn't see Murphy.

"Prime Minister, our national security is facing threats. The top priority should be to ease the situation through diplomatic means..."

"Okay, thank you for your suggestion, Durando." Patrick said, reaching out a hand. The latter shook it blankly, and then heard the Prime Minister say, "You can go back, you don't have to come to work tomorrow."

"Wh, what..."

Durando was invited out by the guards. Patrick looked at Murphy, a little puzzled, "Are you here?"

"No," Murphy smiled, "I just made a holographic video call to you. Sorry for not knocking."

Patrick had already accessed Murphy's mind network before and often reported the situation to Murphy in the mind network, but that was usually like a voice call. This kind of face-to-face communication was his first experience.

"Are you in my head now?"

"Something like that, but don't worry, I just mobilized some nerve signals in your brain to make your brain think it saw me. Don't worry, I won't detect your thoughts."

Patrick frowned, "To be honest, I don't believe you respect others' privacy."

"Uh... okay, I'll knock next time." Murphy was a little embarrassed, "First time using it, not familiar yet."

Patrick shrugged. Since knowing Murphy was a wizard, he had seen these things as strange. And he had a rough idea of Murphy's character. Although he really didn't have the moral integrity to respect others' privacy, he had the pride of disdaining to do small actions.

If he wanted to use Legilimency on you, he would likely tell you directly.

"Did you come here specifically to give me a fright?" Patrick looked at him, "I am the Prime Minister, I am very busy."

"That's not it," Murphy denied, feeling a little guilty, "I still have business with you. Here is a plan, what do you think?"

Murphy said, took out a plan out of thin air, and pushed it in front of Patrick.

The latter reached out to take it, but touched nothing.

"You can't touch it, but just pretend it's in your hand," Murphy said.

Patrick looked weird and carefully held the "book," but found that the thing really seemed to be held in his hand and moved with his hand, while the pages were trembling slightly.

It was just motion tracking plus real-time calculation. This bit of computing power was not even a drop in the bucket for Pioneer.

Patrick put the "book" on the table and saw the cover written: "National Automation Plan." Below was also a Soviet seal.

"This..."

Isn't this something from the Soviets?

"You read it first."

Patrick was confused, but still patiently tried to flip the pages with his hand. Sure enough, the paper was flipped over very smoothly. He didn't have time to sigh at the realism of the effect before he was attracted by the first sentence of the opening.

"National Automation Plan, aims to use computers and the Internet to collect information from all fields, process it after the national-level supercomputer main brain, and make decisions to achieve national material production and wealth distribution according to the optimal and most rationalized plan..."

After a while, after reading the general part, Patrick pondered for a while, "Is this your plan?"

"Someone else did it, but I am prepared to adopt it."

"There are a few questions," Patrick said, "To what extent are you prepared to push this plan?"

"Hmm... probably to a deeper extent than what the plan didn't mention. I am prepared to bring all fields of the entire country's material production and life under the control of the supercomputer main brain."

"This..." Patrick frowned, "Will it be too oppressive? If all actions are monitored and controlled by the state, people will lose their self-will and become walking dead."

"I didn't describe it accurately. Let me explain specifically," Murphy said, "First of all, in terms of economy, I won't follow this plan completely."

"A major drawback of the Soviet Union is that it did not release the promoting effect of capitalist productive forces. They ignored the existence of this class. And the current world cannot reach the level of eliminating capital. At this stage, accepting the bourgeoisie and constraining them with systems, on one hand, maximizing their promoting effect on the market, and on the other hand, not causing harm, is the practice that conforms to historical laws."

"Therefore, I will even gradually open up some fields and industries, no longer fully state-owned, while still firmly grasping the most critical industries and fields, such as military industry, energy, communication, etc., and must not relax to capital."

"Complete rationing is not in line with people's needs at this stage. In terms of economy, the role of the National Automation Plan is more to provide a complete information platform."

"On this platform, anyone can get market information to the maximum extent, so as to make the best choice for their economic decisions and reduce everyone's trial and error costs."

"Perfectly efficient market?" Patrick asked.
