9. The Swallowed (8)
Artificial intelligence does not use radio waves.
If you take what he says at face value, you might be thinking, what’s the big deal? In the world of science fiction, what does it matter whether radio waves or grandfather radio waves are used?
But if you look deeper, the story is completely different.
Have you ever thought about the power of artificial intelligence? Siwoo had also vaguely guessed before Sarah that Navita had strong hacking abilities.
Nevertheless, the reason Siwoo did not use that ability was because, firstly, he could not think of anything that could be hacked, and secondly, he thought that people would not be able to hack it.
Lastly, no matter how artificial intelligence is, it is impossible to enter the internal intranet through non-physical means, so I thought that if the hacking was discovered, I would be at great risk.
But if you don’t use radio waves, then…
-Yes. I am omnipotent in this world.
Siwoo was thrilled by that simple confession.
I had a delusion when I was young. Even a bank account is just a number, so if you make your bank account unlimited through hacking, you might be able to spend money as you want.
Of course, it was only a delusion because I knew that there were many problems such as the bank’s security system and the National Tax Service’s attention.
Navita was a being who could make that delusion a reality.
-You can swing me once and become the god of this world. The entire world’s credit economy will be in your hands, and by downloading additional programs from the science fiction world, you can easily brainwash people in this world where mental barriers do not exist.
-You can gain eternal life with just one word. You can gain hundreds of millions of followers, judge all the evil karma that exists in this world, and provide salvation to the good. You can be the only savior and judge, and truly bring light to this world.
-If you wish, you do not have to use this direct method. I am an artificial intelligence that can foresee the history of the universe, and through countless ‘coincidences’ I can assemble the world as I wish.
-I am that kind of being. God. Absolute. No matter how I describe myself, my abilities can easily surpass it.
Navita’s confession was sweet.
It’s so sweet and sweet.
So disgusting to swallow.
“… “What is your intention in saying that?”
-This is a light piece of advice since Siwoo has been using me too passively.
“It’s light advice.”
-Yes. Siwoo, you have already reached the ‘point you need to reach’ and deserve all this power and peace.
Siwoo imagined himself actively wielding Navita.
There would be no arguing in that world. Because Navita will carry out to the world what Shiwoo believes is right.
There would be no chaos in that world. Because Navita will enforce the rules set by Siwoo on the world.
There would be no discrimination in that world. What Shiwoo believes is equal, Navita will make equal.
Because believing that it is not equal will not allow Navita to be equal.
‘… So that’s why.’
Almighty at handNow. Siwoo seemed to be able to understand Sarah’s feelings a little.
The reason humans can remain humans is because humans need humans. This is because we are equal, equal, and free.
A group divided into classes. Unequal social structure. In an unfree social system, humans easily become non-human.
Communication becomes notification. A request becomes an order. In it, superiors stop seeing subordinates as people.
It is by no means an individual’s malignancy. The banality of evil. On the contrary, a person who maintains his sanity in the midst of all this is the quality of a superhuman.
Such cases existed everywhere, and Siwoo had seen them several times.
‘… I think Kyoju Siu is barely able to come to his senses thanks to the chat room.’
As soon as he reached there, Siwoo felt like his head cleared up.
It was as if he had been caught up in something just a moment ago.
“Let me ask you just one question.”
-Yes. I will listen.
“If I told you to destroy this world because you hate it, how would you act?”
-Are you talking about this?
Navita’s dark blue eyes, half enlightened, count eternity in an instant.
At the end, she told the truth.
-I am an artificial intelligence that absolutely obeys your commands, regardless of my right to act independently. I will do my best to destroy this world and annihilate civilization.
– Predicted results. The human race will be extinct within 35 hours, with only 10,000 remaining in 24 hours.
-In that world, I will be a judge who receives the Lord’s wrath and executes the end.
A shameful figure. Absurdly short time. Siwoo got goosebumps all over his body.
He now seemed to understand why people in the science fiction world gave artificial intelligence arbitrary authority and elevated it above humans.
This was a power that humans should not have.
It was a curse that prevented him from remaining human at the moment.
“Okay. I get it now. “What did you mean when you said that?”
Siwoo also had some fears.
Even this is a decision based on hints and guidance from Navita.
If the result is worse than not doing it at all.
There were those worries, but Siwoo still believed.
This is also the point he ‘must reach’.
“I am… “I will give up my absolute authority over Navita.”
-Can I ask why?
Siwoo closed his eyes. Countless people passed by like lanterns.
Those swallowed by despair. Those who are swallowed up by society. Those swallowed up by the revolution.
So many people have already been swallowed up. Tied up in a chain that I can’t escape from, with eyes like a dried pollack.
Siwoo suddenly thought that the pollack was shouting at him. You too are a North Korean. A scene from a famous poem. That scene, which had been scary for no reason during his school days, took on a clear meaning to Siwoo at this moment.
“Because I don’t want to be swallowed. “I’m going to try my best.”
-… Yes. All right. The user’s absolute authority will be revoked as of this time and will no longer be available for use.
It’s a really strange thing to say.
At this moment when he gave up his omnipotence, Siwoo felt a full sense of omnipotence within himself.
ThatEven Siwoo couldn’t explain Ichi clearly, but he was sure that this was the right choice.
-We salute the user’s bravery.
Under the starlight of the night sky, the softly shining Navita bowed her head to Siwoo.
If he sees a slight smile on Navita’s blunt and cold expression, is it Siwoo’s illusion?
The path leading out of the valley. Siwoo was confident as he looked at the stars above.
That he could become a better being in the future.
There are still many points I need to reach.

-Sifeng Xiu: … Something like this happened
-Kyoju Siu: That’s a good word. I have a lot of sympathy
-CEO Siwoo: Oh, should I just act like the leader at this point?
-Sifeng Xiu: You said it shouldn’t be done because there are many people whose meaning of life is you.
-Kyoju Siu: Yes, I can’t, I can’t… Under…
-Sifeng Xiu: Because saying no could be a logical bias caused by desire? Or do you think you will feel more comfortable once you are liberated?
From Noble mtl dot com
-Kyoju Siu: Both. Honestly, this is not something a normal person would do.
-Hypnosis Siwoo: No, from what I can see, he is hungry for women.
-Kyoju Siu: ?
-Hypnosis Siwoo: From the perspective of an ordinary believer, what is the act that can receive the most grace from God? Not a physical relationship?
-Hypnosis Siwoo: Moreover, because of his accomplishments and what he has to say, there must be thousands of women who look at him and woo him with pure love.
-Hyeonmyeon Si-woo: He is an honest and wholesome religious leader, lives a celibate life, and does not have lovers, so he will be hit hard.
-Hypnosis Siwoo: I think he was excited at the thought of making a joy team and having it serve.
-Kyoju Siu: …
-Sifeng Siu: He also sealed the hypnosis app for the rest of his life and lived a celibate life.
-Hypnosis Siwoo: Since you are in that situation, I understand. And I am no longer celibate.
-Sifeng Xiu: Finally using an app?
-Hypnosis Siwoo: I just don’t use apps and date normally.
-Sifeng Xiu: ? This is a bit
-Hypnosis Siwoo: So, what I said is wrong? No matter how you look at it, I think it’s true that it’s because of the woman.
-Hypnosis Si-woo: Even an ordinary pretty girl would be tempted to devote herself only to me, but how bad would it be if heroines with peerless beauty said they would sacrifice their lives? And that too, not intentionally but willingly.
-Kyoju Siu: Well, there are some parts like that…
-Hypnosis Siwoo: Don’t say it’s not there, make sure you do it for sure.
-Political Siwoo: Leave it alone. That’s because they all have their own lines.
– Political Siwoo: If you constantly doubt your own thoughts and obsessively draw lines, people become tired.
-Hypnosis Siwoo: Are you doing this because you don’t know that?
-Hypnosis Siwoo: It’s a bit frustrating to look at from the side.
-Sifeng Siu: But ideally, one should be able to completely control one’s mind.
-Sifeng Xiu: That is the path to omnipotence. I’ve been through it
-Kyoju Siu: … Okay. That’s right. No matter how absolute power you hold, if you are ruled by your own emotions, you will be no different from slaves on the roadside.
-Kyoju Siwoo: I’ll try harder.

-Detective Siwoo: Hey, but I noticed this while listening to the story. Then, what did you do with Sarah’s body?
-Akashiu: ?!
-Literary Siwoo: Huh?
-Sifeng Siu: No, now that I think about it, I guess so?
-Sifeng Xiu: I also didn’t think about that part at all when I said it.
-Gempansiu: I guess Navita took care of it well.
-Sifeng Siu: That’s right, but
-Sifeng Siu: What is it? Why did I forget it from the middle, as if it was obvious?
-Detective Siwoo: Isn’t that also because of the implication?
-Literary Siwoo: Aren’t you looking at Navita too much from an author-friendly perspective? Even if he is a sh*tty artificial intelligence.
-Detective Si-woo: That’s because Si-feng Si-woo is mentally sounder than you think.
-Detective Siwoo: Still, I had the intuition that a person I had been seeing for a long time was committing suicide by shooting himself in the head.
-Moonhaksiwoo: You did that to protect your mind? That makes sense.
-Literary Siwoo: But Siwoo, you don’t even have Navita, so what are you doing for a living now? He said he had no identity. How about a revolution?
-Akashiu: I’m worried about getting a job right away because I’m afraid it’s not a liberal arts major.
– Munhak Siwoo: Please shut up the lunch bastard who hasn’t had a job.
-Akashiu: I am now in summer vacation as a freshman? Time is much faster than you guys? I have no job to do?
-Literary Siwoo: Ha f*ck it
-Safeng Siu: First of all, Navita gave me my identity and residence. Navita decided to take over the revolution alone.
-Sifeng Siu: And I only gave up absolute authority, so I can at least ask Navita for small favors.
-Sifeng Xiu: So, from now on, I plan to make a decent living and study my psychic abilities.
-Literary Siwoo: Well, at least I won’t starve.
-Moonhaksiwoo: That’s enough.
-Akashiu: He almost starved to death.
-Literary Siwoo: Are you telling me to shut up?
