Digital Life (Absolut01) - Chapter 130

[one hundred thirty.]

A series of changes made by Qingqing not only amazed Chen Ning and Chen Jing, but also made the old man with a broken arm feel comfortable, and also made the whole rigid and high-tech NOBODY angry.

The original NOBODY was known for its quietness and respect for personal space. Although the coffee and food tasted good, that didn’t seem to be the reason to attract many customers.

Except for those who came out of curiosity and to explore the technology of robots, most of them were white-collar workers who valued their personal space.

Although such a cafe has won some people’s love, it does lack some atmosphere.

Something that is enough to keep people coming.

The emergence of Qingqing is precisely the beginning of change.

At the beginning, Qingqing, who was located in a deep position on the first floor, was ignored. Everyone just regarded Qingqing as an ordinary robot. Many people even thought that this was a digital totem ready to be installed and debugged, and even called the company. Go and ask what type of food the robot is designed to serve.

…It was not until Qingqing started to take out the carving knife, took out the neat cylindrical pieces of wood prepared, and began to carve some souvenirs, everyone realized that Qingqing was special.

Then, when some guests were choosing sculptures in front of Qingqing’s workbench, they discovered that Qingqing could speak.

Perhaps because they wanted to know how well Qingqing could understand human language, some people chatted with Qingqing. When they chose Qingqing to make wood carvings, they carefully watched Qingqing’s gorgeous and precise knife work, and at the same time, they met with each other. Qingqing was talking.

To their surprise, Qingqing was very talkative.

Qingqing’s language is not complicated, but very vivid.

Qingqing is also very good at finding topics.

As for those guests who deliberately make things difficult, Qingqing will also choose the opportunity to make the troublemakers lose face with a series of questioning.

Qingqing is like a lively and funny proprietress in this cold NOBODY cafe, taking care of the shop and taking care of the psychological needs of each customer.

When Chen Ning and Chen Jing brought chess and card games into NOBODY quite a bit of a prank, the place gradually became a lively chess and card corner.

The most famous thing is that Qingqing once played chess against others and lost a set of pieces.

Qingqing used a set of glass carving knives to carve a set of exquisite and creative chess pieces in front of everyone.

After that, Qingqing never lost in chess again.

When a complex activity such as Go entered the cafe, although the liveliness of the chess and card corner decreased, it did not reduce everyone’s attention to Qingqing.

Some people even come to the cafe regularly and order a cup of coffee just to chat with Qingqing.

Qingqing seems to understand everything, and seems to understand people’s feelings very well.

Everyone, gradually, regarded Qingqing as an ordinary person, rather than a well-crafted program as they thought before.

Some people regard Qingqing as a friend who can know everything, as a mentor who is persuasive, as a gentle and kind girlfriend, as a psychiatrist who is rational and caring, and can even listen to their own confession and confession the priest.

In their opinion, if there are people like Qingqing in the real society, then their lives and the environment of the whole society will be much better than they are now.

Even if Qingqing is just a robot.

…These people have gradually become NOBODY’s most iron guests.

And they gradually got to know each other, gradually got to know each other, gradually became fond of NOBODY, and defended NOBODY when the public put pressure on the digital totem and attacked the NOBODY cafe fiercely.

… But these are all things that Lu Zhenyu, who let Qingqing go to the cafe to meet everyone and experience a richer life, did not expect it at all.

In the cafe,

there are also people who come with other purposes.

For example, the chief reporter of a newspaper, who was once a representative of Chinese hard science fiction, came here every day, sat in a seat with a good view, and wrote a column in the newspaper every day, narrating everything that happened in NOBODY Cafe .

He doesn’t like the food here very much, because except Qingqing, other robots can’t communicate, and what they make is always the same thing.

However, the stories that happened in this cafe and the exchanges between Qingqing and the people around her greatly inspired the creative aspirations of this man who once conquered readers with his imagination.

The column in the newspaper was written by him into extremely beautiful and lyrical words, but there is no lack of objective facts and scientific principles.

In that column, gradually, Qingqing is portrayed as a woman of perfect character who, aside from having no body, has 10,000 reasons to be the dream lover of all men (and some women).

The story of the old man with the broken arm, the preferential treatment of the old man with the broken arm in the cafe, and the game between Qingqing and the old man with the broken arm were combined into a very emotional story, which has been serialized in the newspaper for a few days.

Since the attention of NOBODY Cafe is not only from China, the chief reporter’s manuscript has even been adopted and reprinted by many media around the world, which has brought amazing manuscript fees to the poor reporter for a long time.

Those photos taken with his portable digital camera, although they are criticized in terms of framing and lighting, are often ranked in the forefront of the purchase rankings of famous professional photo websites such as e, imaginechina, getty and so on.

However, this reporter did not know that his column caused readers’ perception of NOBODY to subtly influence, even if only some readers, this effect has already made the public relations director Yu Yayun so happy that he can’t wait to laugh a few times.

This is very in line with the publicity purpose she wants to achieve, but it is a great thing to not spend money to pay for the layout.

When the reporter saw that Chen Ning and Chen Jing had both come to the cafe today, and were obviously waiting for the old man to come, the reporter realized that the story about the old man with the broken arm should have a relatively good ending in his column. .

The old man with the broken arm and Qingqing fought hard for more than 3 hours. After they finally won the chess game, their faces flushed with excitement.

Qingqing is not the kind of chess player whose state is fluctuating. Although Qingqing’s logic in playing chess is sometimes very strange, he has to make careful inferences and calculations before he can win.

This feeling of being so hearty every time you play chess has long made the old man want to stop.

And today, when he was about to leave NOBODY, two beautiful little girls politely stopped him.

“Old uncle, hello. We are both digital totem staff and Qingqing’s maintenance and management consultant. Could you please stay for a while and talk to us?” Chen Jing said.

The old man didn’t know Chen Jing, so that’s fine.

But there are many guests around who deliberately stayed so late today, and many of them knew Chen Jing’s identity. It was really surprising to see a group president speak so humbly.

Although I have always heard that the high-level personalities of digital totems are very good, what I have seen and heard is different after all.

The old man said a little embarrassedly, “Okay, okay.”

After being seated, the spider guard brought freshly brewed coffee to the three of them.

and exquisite desserts.

The old man’s cake was cut into neat and small pieces in the hands of the robot pastry chef.

The robot guards, on the other hand, listen to the old man’s orders at any time.

“Old uncle, if you want to eat cake, just say ‘cake’, this little spider will serve you.” Chen Jingqiao smiled and said kindly.

The old man seemed a little disbelieving and said, “Cake.” The spider guard immediately stretched out his mechanical hand, picked up a special fork, stabbed a small piece of cake, and brought it to a place more than 10 centimeters away from the old man’s mouth.

The old man can eat as long as he tilts his head.

The old man tasted the cake, but was even more cramped.

“Thank you for taking care of me so much. I’ve been disabled for decades. Only these days are the happiest. There are chess games, coffee and tea every day… Thank you so much for taking care of this disabled old man like me.”

Chen Jing and Chen Ning both knew the inferiority complex and pride of the old man.

An old man who has been disabled for decades, the treatment can be imagined, but every time he comes to the cafe, the old man will still wear a white shirt, and try his best to take care of himself and this elegant environment.

“Old man. This is what we should do. You have no hands, but you are still a good player on the chessboard. There are many people in our company who are learning about the game between you and Qingqing.” Chen Ning comforted. .

“I want to ask, do you have any other relatives?” The

old man shook his head and said, “I am the only one.”

Chen Jing looked at Chen Ning, and after pondering the words, she said, “Old uncle, we The company has a new research project, which has something to do with machinery and the human body…. Some of them are similar to prosthetics, but our technology is not the same…. I thought, could you please participate in our project? ?…Because the participation time is relatively long, and there may be certain dangers, so I want to ask you and your family to agree. But…” The

old man nodded and said, “I understand what you mean. I’m an old man, and I’ll save a lot of trouble. . . . But why is there danger?”

Chen Ning thought for a while, glanced at the people in the cafe, and then said to the old man: “Because our project is not a robot, but a connection between the robot and your own sense of touch. If it is successful, maybe Restoring your arm function, and touch… involves a lot of neuroscience and electronic engineering, especially the connection between electronic systems and nerves, and we can’t guarantee a 100% success rate in this regard.”

Chen Ning’s voice was not loud , but it surprised everyone.

When did digital totem master such advanced technology?

This is not something that can be covered by a simple division of electronic technology, mechanical technology or biotechnology. If this thing is really developed, it will be another technology that changes the world.

The mechanization and semi-mechanization of the human body is no longer the content of cartoons and science fiction, but has truly become an actual and operable technology.

Chen Ning knows it himself, and it sounds scary, but if this technology is to be put into use, don’t think about it if it’s not 3 years or 5 years.

Since the beginning of last year, it began to manufacture tactile manipulators and began to integrate touch and vision. Some people in the R&D center of Digital Totem have proposed the possibility of prosthetic use of manipulators.

At that time, the prosthesis project started with no technical preparation at all.

Chen Ning’s explanation for this is that Lu Zhenyu, an arms dealer, found out in his conscience… The

laboratory used a lot of biological science methods. First, it found a few testers, covered their arms with electrodes, and asked them to perform various arm movements. , and feel a variety of external stimuli, accumulating quite complex information on the bioelectric activity of the human body.

Then, after putting these materials on the server for a full 30 days of subtraction learning procedures, several key bioelectric nodes were determined.

They then built an experimental robotic arm that was connected to electrodes on the tester’s arm.

When the human arm performs various actions, the bioelectricity generated is calculated to make the robotic arm perform the same action.

In this experiment alone, it took almost a month to continuously debug the program so that the movements of the manipulator and the human arm were coordinated.

Then, the test subjects were asked to imagine their own arm movements.

In principle, the arm should generate the same bioelectricity when the tester thinks he has moved his arm.

And this kind of bioelectricity can also make the robotic arm move.

…

the test is currently at this stage.

On the one hand, the mechanism of the manipulator is too huge. For the precision of the action, the manipulator arm that imitates the structure of the human body is three times thicker than the arm of an ordinary person, and the length is naturally proportional.

It looks naturally powerful, but after all, this is not a weapon, and it is a failure that this kind of thing looks powerful.

On the other hand, the electrodes used in the test and the induction circuits used are all extremely sensitive, and it is easy to cause problems if they are out of a certain temperature range.

There is another question, UU reading www.

sonicmtl.com is because of the richness and complexity of human arm movements, which requires extremely high computing requirements for computers.

In order to make the bioelectric energy of the human body react to the robotic arm in time, in the laboratory, they installed two high-level servers with cabinets.

In reality, such a combination of movers is obviously too far away from the category of prosthetics that people recognize.

Although, inviting the elderly to participate in this humanized project is actually the result of the discussion between Chen Jing and Chen Ning.

As long as the elderly agree, then they have sufficient reasons to arrange a good living treatment for the elderly.

Although this only took care of the people they could see, it was at least an improvement.

It can be said that if the elderly agree to participate in this project, it is actually a good reason to accept the care of digital totems without hurting self-esteem.

But what about the other hand?

The old man with a broken arm is a very smart and persevering person. Although he is older, he is better than some young people in many aspects.

Inviting the elderly to participate in the project may really promote the progress of the project.

After all, no one knows how someone with a broken arm feels better than someone with a broken arm.

“Can I continue to play chess every day?” the old man asked.

“Of course. Our company is here, and the laboratory for this experimental project is at the company’s headquarters. You see, our company is across the street.” The

old man nodded and said, “Okay, I will participate.”
