Not daring to look at Zhao Wanyu any longer, Chen Mengchuan took a change of clothes from his bag and headed for the bathroom.
After entering the bathroom and closing the door, Chen Mengchuan inexplicably let out a sigh of relief.
He quickly finished showering and changed before coming out. Zhao Wanyu sat quietly on the bed. From the look of it, she probably had not moved an inch.
"Miss Zhao, then I'll use the computer for a while?" Chen Mengchuan asked awkwardly.
Zhao Wanyu's face flushed red. She nodded and stood up. "Then... then I'll go take a shower too."
With that, she slipped straight into the bathroom.
The awkward atmosphere eased once more. Chen Mengchuan walked to the desk, placed his laptop on it, and continued calculating the algorithm for Chisako's Neural Network Disordered Nodes.
Meanwhile, after Zhao Wanyu slipped into the bathroom and shut the door, she let out a long breath. After spending an entire day on a plane, she had long since begun to feel unbearably grimy. Although she was alone in a room with a man, her intuition told her Chen Mengchuan was not the sort to be blinded by lust.
And if he really had any improper thoughts about her, the self-defense techniques for women she had learned were not to be taken lightly either.
Having thought it through, Zhao Wanyu relaxed a little. Shaking off the messy thoughts in her head, she took off her clothes and began to shower.
"Splash, splash~~ Splash, splash~~"
The sound of running water in the bathroom was especially clear in the silence.
Separated by only a thin wooden door, Chen Mengchuan seemed to see a graceful, hazy figure lightly caressing her body through the distinct sound of water. The thought made it impossible for him to settle down.
"Amitabha. Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. Amitabha..."
"@#￥#￥%...@#￥&%..." Besides the sound of water, there seemed to be other noises coming from the bathroom. Unable to resist his curiosity, Chen Mengchuan listened carefully. It was Zhao Wanyu singing softly.
"Don't think I'm just a little sheep... A sheep's cleverness is beyond imagination... No matter how high the sky, my heart still runs free... Every day I chase the sun... La la la~"
"???"
With an awkward expression, Chen Mengchuan dug out his Bluetooth earbuds from his backpack and put them in. He opened the music app on his phone, set a clean track of "white noise" to loop, and turned the volume all the way up. Soon, as the sounds of rain striking fallen leaves and soft rustling filled his ears, his mood quickly calmed, and he finally focused on the computer screen.
One crucial difference between Chisako's neural network and ordinary artificial intelligence was its initiative and capacity for thought. This initiative and capacity for thought came from the collection, self-analysis, and aggregation of Data Neurons. Every piece of information she collected herself allowed Chisako to gain something and grow. For example, when Chisako received a segment of footage, she would analyze the images and information on her own and arrive at new perceptual conclusions.
The perceptual conclusions Chisako obtained carried a great deal of randomness, and that randomness originated from the gathering of information in her neural network. Within Chisako's neural network structure, the entire framework consisted of highly disordered, multi-point neurons. Every neural node was connected to a large number of other neural nodes. It was this disordered composition of neural nodes that gave Chisako initiative and the capacity for thought.
When she received footage of a kingfisher catching fish, she would marvel at the kingfisher's beauty and speed, marvel at the wonder of the food chain, and marvel at the many traits that set kingfishers apart from other birds. Her thoughts would even branch out into countless questions. Why did kingfishers have such incredible relative speed? Why did their feathers not get wet? Why could they accurately catch small fish swimming rapidly underwater? Along with many other associations, all of these thoughts would be stored together.
As her computing power grew stronger and stronger, the vast amount of stored information would gradually be opened up and understood through disordered, random thought, eventually producing conclusions that would be absorbed and stored again.
Chen Mengchuan gradually entered the zone...
