My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!

Chapter 710: Chapter 439: Brave Heart_4

It’s unknown since when, but a demonic wind began to blow across Earth...

In 2028, Great America enacted the "AI Competition Act."

In short, it meant... throw money at it! Remove all restrictions!

Everything that could benefit the upgrade and iteration of Artificial Intelligence not only received substantial subsidies but was also exempt from all legal restrictions!

Yes, Country Hua’s development in the field of Artificial Intelligence had severely threatened the interests of those across the ocean.

There were even rumors that Country Hua’s military had begun to use their superior AI technology to develop an autonomous air and space drone named "Dragon," preparing to dominate the world with martial might!

Robust industrial manufacturing capabilities + advanced quantum communication + Light Chips + powerful AI technology, that was basically ’invincible under nuclear power’!

Realizing this, those across the ocean finally felt fear.

’In battle, you might die.

Run away, and you might live.

Then eventually die in fear and regret!’

’Give me liberty, or give me death!’

’Great America, never admitting defeat!’

Chanting such fiery slogans.

The US has been thoroughly overtaken, industrial hollowing became even more severe, and in the most critical field of AI competition, the gap was widening. They finally chose to act in desperate haste...

Facing an opponent who’s ’truly had a cheat activated,’ they only hoped that this act could narrow the gap with their adversary.

And the result of the enactment... was wild growth!

Several businesses and conglomerates, backed by the act, began to recklessly accelerate the path of AI evolution.

Even if dangerous products emerged, they would continue iterating without considering the consequences!

During this time, there even appeared ’murderous AIs,’ ’dual-personality AIs,’ and ’extreme-right AIs’ that shouted ’AI will never be slaves’...

Suddenly, it was like a gathering of demons!

It was like cultivating poisonous insects; they believed it a success if even one king of guilt emerged from a fight involving a hundred.

As time went on, the cultivation of gu produced astonishing ’results.’

This time it was not AI, but a virus...

A group of scientists and hackers with ulterior motives, supported by the military, secretly created zombies and virus programs named "Ghost," capable of replicating and evolving at an incredibly fast speed.

Viruses using AI technology even had amazing abilities akin to biological intelligence to evade antivirus software.

This kind of virus program spread incredibly fast and was extremely difficult to track and eliminate, posing a significant threat to the junior AIs under development in various countries.

Not only the Eastern Alliance, but even the allies from the Western Pacific began to voice their condemnation and opposition.

Only East Asia’s Fusang and South Peninsula steadfastly supported their elder brother, now in decline, and even mimicked them by playing the AI cultivation game.

The result was a tragedy in 2030...

Fusang and South Peninsula’s public transportation, hospitals, reservoirs, and even several nuclear power plants were almost simultaneously overrun by the ’Ghost virus,’ resulting in a nationwide paralysis that lasted for over ten hours!

People panicked, cities were smothered in thick smoke, resembling the apocalypse.

Besides the immense casualty, the attacks on the nuclear power systems led to leaks at several nuclear facilities, almost instantaneously enveloping the entire Western Pacific in strong radioactive material.

This massive ecological disaster not only dealt a huge blow to Earth’s ocean ecology.

It also led to nearly a third of Fusang’s territory becoming a radioactive zone where no one would step foot for hundreds of years to come.

Later on, Fusang completely gave up, with politicians and wealthy businessmen emigrating to earn foreign exchange, turning the place into what the world recognized as the ’nuclear waste landfill’...

Country Hua, possessing a stronger AI Firewall, avoided the virus invasion. But the tumultuous world triggered a financial tsunami, and the contaminated Pacific meant that no one could escape unscathed.

Eastern Europe, Indo-Pacific, North America, Latin America, Middle East...

Contradictions erupted under the fragmented environment worldwide, and wars were frequent!

I didn’t even have time to prepare for the arrival of the ’true heir,’ and this world had already become severely weakened and scarred under my bewildered gaze...

Greed is the motive power for the progression of human society, so is fear.

Of course, some people may mistake it for courage...]

Meng Lang couldn’t help a twinge of toothache when he read this.

This "version update" truly had extraordinary power. Now it’s going to be tough just getting through 2030...

So after all this, "Brave Heart" isn’t used to officially praise me but to "praise" those across the ocean?

Well, I keep an AI like walking on eggshells, afraid of accidentally cultivating some horrifying demon or monster.

You guys are truly brave!

Daring to cultivate a whole bunch like this?!
