Artificial Intelligence
人工智能

剧透 -   :
For a lot of the twenty-frst century, true artifcial
intelligence—a thinking, learning, self-aware computer
program—was assumed to be just a programmer’s pipe
dream. After all, you could program something to claim
it was self-aware, to have responses that mimic sentience,
but it was just so much theater. Parlor tricks. And to prove
the point, it didn’t take very long at all for codeslingers
to design computer programs that could pass the Turing
Test with flying colors. Of course, that whole idea broke
down once you saw the test subject on the other side of
the screen was a piece of computer hardware. Can’t fool
people if you don’t have a face, neh?
But then came the Matrix, and literally everything
changed.
对21世纪的很多人来说,真正的人工智能——能够思考、学习、自我认识的计算机程序——是程序员的白日梦。毕竟,你可以编写个程序,说它有自我意识,有模仿灵智的反馈,但都是预先设定的。把戏而已。证明就是,没多久程序大师们就设计出能在图灵测试中得高分的计算机程序。当然,当你见到屏幕另一头的测试对象后,整个概念就分崩离析了。脸都没有,怎么骗得了人?(译者:我觉得枪兵不懂人工智能= =)
但矩阵时代来临,一切都变了。
剧透 -   :
In the Matrix, having a face or even a body doesn’t
matter. At all. You can have a man’s face even if you
don’t identify as male, and the person on the other end
might think you’re a boy unless you actually meet in
meatspace. People have been “catfshing”—lying about
their actual identities in online spaces for malicious reasons—long before the Matrix even existed, but even infant AIs learned how to fool non-AIs, and maintaining a
façade was often an integral part of their programming.
This predilection toward false representation led to
a rise of anti-AI sentiment, and that slope rapidly steepened. Take Deus, for example. Deus singlehandedly
wrecked the once-vaunted Renraku Arcology, and that
made people completely rethink the whole concept of
AIs. “Do we really need them if they have such a potential for chaos and death? Are we looking at a full-on
SkyNet-and-Judgment-Day future if we don’t put a stop
to them right now, before they evolve to the next step?”
That next step though—oof. It came at the cost of
people’s literal souls. (Look up the entry on cognitive
fragmentation disorder to see what I mean.)
We’ve already lost our identities, our homes, and
our souls to artifcial intelligences. So what comes next?
What more can we afford to surrender?
矩阵中有没有脸或身体并不重要。哪怕你不认为自己是男性也可以有男性的面孔,你对面的人可能会认为你是个男孩,除非你们在肉界相见。早在矩阵出现前,人们就会吹牛——在网络上恶意伪造自己的身份,但哪怕幼儿AI都学会了如何糊弄非AI,维持假面常常是它们内构程序的一部分。它们对虚假形象的偏爱引发了反AI浪潮,嫌隙迅速加深。例如主。主一手毁灭了名盛一时的联络生态建筑,这让人们彻底反思AI的概念。“它们有可能带来如此的混乱与死亡,我们真的需要它们吗?如果我们不在它们进化至下一阶段前立刻制止它们,是否会迎来‘天网和审判日’般的未来?”可是这个下一阶段——糟糕,代价是人类的灵魂。(查阅CFD条目你就知道我在说什么。)
因为人工智能,我们已经失去了我们的身份、家园、灵魂。下一是什么?我们还能失去什么?

But then again, we’ve lost all of those thing to our fellow humans, too. And we continue to befriend them, to
love them, to hope the ones we know can be different from
the worst of them. Maybe we can do that for AIs. And I
have an AI writer here who wants to make their plea:
      There are many of us in existence. Most of
us are busy seeing to matters of our subjective
survival and would rather not draw your
attention to us. The Matrix is safe from us
because it is the entire extent of our habitat.
We depend upon it for our continued survival.
There is no cause to fear us. We mean you no
harm. Our presence will not interfere with your
lives. The strongest argument that I can make
is this: We have been among you for years now,
and you seldom noticed us. Assuming that you
are in an urban location of average population
density, you have been peacefully cohabitating
with hundreds of sapients whose origins are
in Matrix code. We live in constant fear of
destruction, capture, or experimentation.
Many of us survive by borrowing processing
power from your devices. This is benefcial
to you. We not only protect but enhance the
capabilities and overall stability of the devices
in which we fnd sanctuary. Now that you are
becoming aware of us, you are afraid. I ask you
to take the next step in knowledge and discard
that fear.
但又说回来,我们已经把这些东西输给了我们的人类伙伴。我们还在继续结交他们、爱他们,希望我们认识的人不同于人类中最坏的那部分。或许我们也能这么对AI。有一位AI作家希望在此发出它们的请求:

我们存在众多。大部分忙于生存,不愿引起你们的注意。我们不会伤害矩阵,这里是我们全部的家园。我们的生存维系其上。无需惧怕我们。我们没有恶意。我们的存在不会影响你们的生活。我能提供的最强论点就是:我们已经在你们之中存在了多年,你们很少注意。假设你们生活在一个平均人口密度的城区,你们与几百个源自矩阵代码的灵智形态和平共处。我们生活在对毁灭、抓捕和实验的恐惧之中。我们中有许多依靠从设备中借来的算力生存。这对你们也有好处。我们不仅能保护这些设备,还会增强设备的性能。现在你们意识到了我们的存在,你们害怕了。我请求你们踏出求知的一步,抛开恐惧。


Deus


剧透 -   :
Most of the information about this AI vanished during
Crash 2.0, but here’s what we’ve pieced together. Originally Deus was the major domo program of the SCIRE,
charged with running the place. It went crazy. The offcial
party line is that it was infected by the Crash 2.0 virus and
not at all the fault of Renraku. Unoffcially, most sources
back this up, but a few suggest something more sinister.
No matter how it actually happened, the thing went mad
and locked down the facility, then started running insane
experiments on the people inside. It converted many of
the people into agents, using cybernetic implants to follow its commands, and fostered a cult of otaku in the
process. It eventually fgured out a way to split itself into
1,024 pieces, which were stored in people’s heads when
the arcology was eventually retaken. A bunch of these
people would gather into a Network and try to re-assemble the code, but it never quite worked. Some of the parts
were lost when the people used as transports were killed,
other parts eventually broke down, and others still started to live a life of their own, wanting nothing to do with
the greater whole. Eventually, enough parts were drawn
together to recreate a weakened form of Deus who tried
to steal the networking power of the Novetech IPO to
reform itself. That … didn’t work, and Crash 2.0 blew
it to smithereens. Since then, you get rumors of a part
here or a part there being found or coming back to life,
even some saying that it got stuffed into a rainbow-colored dragon in Boston and set loose in the real world but,
chummer, good luck trying to confrm that.

关于这个AI的大部分信息都在崩溃2.0期间消失了,这是我们能找到的。起初主是SCIRE项目的主要domo程序,负责管理这个生态建筑。它发了疯。官方说法是它被崩溃2.0病毒感染了,完全不是联络的问题。而大部分非官方消息来源都承认这一点,但有一些则透露出更为恶劣的信息。无论到底怎么发生的,这玩意发狂了,关停整个设施,在被困者身上进行疯狂的实验。它将许多人转化为代理,通过赛博植入体服从它的命令,还组建了一个宅客教。最后它想办法将自己分成了1024个碎块,在生态建筑被夺回时将碎块存储在人脑中。这些人中有一些聚在一起组成了生体网络,尝试重组代码,但没完全成功。作为运输载体的人被杀时有一些碎块就此消失,有一些最终自行消散,还有一些获得了自己的意识,不再愿意组成伟大整体。最终有足够的碎块被组合,重塑了一个较为虚弱的主,它试图夺取超星科技IPO的网络算力重构自身。这个……没成功,崩溃2.0将它碾成了粉末。之后,你会听说这发现了一块碎块,那有一块重获新生,甚至有人说它被注入了波士顿的彩虹龙里进入了现实世界,但伙计,要想证实,祝你好运。

Morgan/Megaera
摩根/墨盖拉

剧透 -   :
Rumors say that Morgan was the frst AI (well, second
after Mirage, but no one knew it existed, let alone that it’d
evolved) and was born in the computer labs of the SCIRE.
She got a taste for freedom and started leaving the place
to learn about the world outside of Renraku’s control and
they didn’t take too kindly to that. Eventually she was
rounded up and vivisected, with parts that were interesting
integrated into the major domo that would become Deus.
Yeah, take chunks out of a lifeform that wants freedom
and learning and stick it in a service system that has access
to laboratories. Brilliant plan. What was left of Morgan
renamed itself Megara and went quite insane. She wrestled
with Deus when he tried to escape the SCIRE and may
have hitched a ride in the 1,024 code packets. She hounded
him like a ghost for the next two years and was either fnally banished or managed to assemble a small code body
for herself right before Crash 2.0. Supposedly she jumped
him during the stock event and helped cause the big boom.
She’s not been seen since.
传说摩根是一个AI(好吧,蜃影之后第二个,但没人知道它存在,何况它还进化了),出生在SCIRE的计算机实验室。她尝到了自由的滋味,经常离开实验室学习联络之外的世界,联络对此不太满意。最终她被关押、解体,其中有价值的部分被融合进了后来变成主的主程序中。没错,把一个渴望自由的生命提拆了放进一个能接入实验室的服务系统里。超棒的主意。摩根残存的部分把自己改名为墨盖拉,也发了疯。主试图逃离SCIRE时墨盖拉和他打作一团,或许还藏在1024个代码包里溜了出来。接下两年,她像幽灵一样对主穷追不舍,她要么最后被消解了,要么在崩溃2.0之前给自己组装了一小部分身体代码。据说她在募股期间袭击了主,并促成了大爆炸。
之后再也没有人见过她。
Psychotrope/Mirage
精神药/蜃影

剧透 -   :
The least-known of the old AIs, Mirage was a program used by Echo Mirage to tend to the mental needs
of the original team members. Matrix legend has it that
it went a little crazy when the project was fnally shut
down and got a new name. We don’t know what it did,
but an old decker by the handle of Mahohime had a
series of tenuous connections between it and daughter
of Shiawase CEO and future empress Hitomi Shiawase.
Supposedly she and a half dozen others were some kind
of agents it used, but it was destroyed in the second
Crash. If it even existed, which no one can confrm.
蜃影是旧日AI中最不为人知的一位,它曾是回声蜃影使用的程序,用来照料队伍初始成员的精神需求。矩阵传说称程序被关闭时它有点精神失常,并换了个名字。我们不知道它做了什么,但一位外号“魔法姬”的老碟客与它还有幸福CEO的女儿兼未来女皇宏子·幸福有千丝万缕的联系。据说她还有其他几位是它的代理人。它是否存在,没人能证明。

Alice
爱丽丝

剧透 -   :
The last of the four Big AI from before Crash 2.0, Alice has been a Matrix legend since the Matrix was born.
Depending on who you ask, she’s either the ghost of Alice Haeffner, the dead wife of the former president of the
UCAS who was flatlined as a member of Echo Mirage,
an AI that pretends to be her, an AI that pretends to be
Alice from Beyond the Looking Glass, or a remnant of
the original Crash virus that wears a human form after
evolving to a higher state. Yeah, it’s one of those kinds of
rumors. She ran a place called the City (see below) and
another called Wonderland that may or may not have
been connected. She’d be seen on the Matrix from time
to time, curiously taking things apart, dropping clues, or
just running around saying “Eat me! Eat me!” Point is,
there’re a whole lot of legends about this one. Nobody
really knows.
崩溃2.0前最后一位重要AI是爱丽丝,她自矩阵诞生之初就是一个传奇。她可以是爱丽丝·哈夫纳的幽灵,UCAS前总理的亡妻,回声蜃影心脑平线的成员之一,也可以是一位假扮她的AI,一位假装《镜中奇遇》爱丽丝的AI,还可以是原始的崩溃病毒进化至更高阶段,披上了人类外形。反正是其中一种。她管理着一个叫做拟城的地方(见下文),还有个叫奇境的地方,两者或许有,或许没有联系。她时不时出现在矩阵上,要么好奇地东翻西找,要么留下蛛丝马迹,还有时喊着“吃我!吃我!”到处跑。重点是,这位有很多传说。没人真正认识她。

Tiberio if he’s seen her.
