Chapter 240 – 24. Who Goes First?

“Robots are a different field from suits, but…”

Eun-kyung could be heard mumbling from behind, but Eun-kyung was already obsessed with the robot.

There will certainly be many technical challenges, but isn’t this technology from the human world(?)? He believed in his skills.

“As long as you have the basic framework and programming, the skill system will take care of the rest.”

Be careful of all editing.

Although it wasn’t an attitude that seemed very good to others, the current Tae Eun-kyung had no choice but to let things work out on their own even if she indulged in such expediency.

“When I actually came up with the answer, it seemed like there was no other alternative. Just looking at Eunha’s favorite subordinate, Yoo In-ah, didn’t she suffer terrible damage after the battle with Cho-eun? Also, my sisters’ whole bodies melted and they died. In order to prevent such a situation, we have no choice but to go to robots. “If there are no people inside, there is no need to suffer.”

“… I see.”

That is correct. The question is whether that damn robot will be developed properly.

After a while.

“Hmm.”

Entering the suit development room, Eun-kyung crossed her arms and thought for a moment.

He said he was interested in building a robot, but once he came in, he had no idea where to start.

Just producing a suit right now involves over 100 machines that he edited interlocking to produce the final result, but developing and mass-producing an autonomous combat robot that is sure to be much more complicated than that? My head is definitely going to explode.

“Ah, you’re here. “Your Excellency the President.”

As I was staring at the facility, which was roughly 5 meters away, a woman opened the door and came out from the room attached to the development office.

With her black ponytail hair and wearing a white gown, she had dark circles around her eyes, but her eyes were as intelligent as her glasses.

“Are you satisfied with the performance? If approximately 37 additional parts are manufactured according to the required specifications, the first mass production will be possible. Oh, of course, detailed tuning is still needed. It’s not fully developed yet. Still, since the rough blueprint has been released, it is possible to make some predictions.”

“Gayoung.”

“Yes?”

“Change of plans. A suit is good, but I think a robot that can fight autonomously without anyone inside is better.”

“…”

The woman named Ga-young, who was talking like that, closed her mouth.

“The model is… Yeah, you have that legendary aerial mount, right? Mobile suit. It’s a vehicle that’s roughly 15 meters long, and I think research will be easier if it’s based on that. Of course, I will also provide extensive assistance with my skills.”

“That…”

She raised her glasses with an embarrassed expression. She did raise it with the middle finger of her left hand, but it probably doesn’t mean much.

“If you suddenly do this… It’s difficult.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay to fix the suit a bit, fix the AI ​​a bit, and then go through my editing? For your information, my skills are now at space level.”

Lee Ga-young sighed deeply within herself. Of course, she didn’t show it openly.

“Hmm. As a scientist, this is quite upsetting, but it makes some sense. Your skills are definitely special. I would like to conduct in-depth research at least once, both as an owner and as a scientist. However, there is something to keep in mind.”

“Which?”

“Your Excellency’s skill is not one of completely creating something from nothing. Of course, I think it should be possible, but the efficiency would be extremely low. In other words, it means that a usable product can only be produced after the basic framework has been technically completed and then edited by His Excellency.”

“So, what I’m saying is that the autonomous combat robot needs to be technically completed first and then edited.”

“Yes.”

“It was expected. The suit was like that too. “How long will it take to develop?”

“That… We don’t know at this point. Even if you only consider software, AI that assists humans and AI that makes autonomous decisions from beginning to end are of a different class. But to give a rough estimate, at least two years are needed.”

“2 years?”

Eun-kyung was surprised.

Two years. In two years, it will be time for not only the Sung Empire but also the Sung Empire’s reserves to be established.

Gayoung, who was a little offended by his reaction, pushed up her glasses again with the middle finger of her left hand.

How easy it is to see alternative technologies…

“Two years is the minimum. About that too… No, this is when all of Changcheon’s scientific capabilities were mobilized.”

“Umm… How about down to the very basic level? It’s literally at the level of ‘I can get a rough picture.'”

Ha.

“It’s the same. Please consider that human civilization is currently in a state of virtual extinction.”

“Ah.”

“Currently, the operation rate of labs across the country is below 30%. There are many people who have been injured or died, and there are also countless people who changed their jobs while transitioning. Still, the situation in our country is pretty good. Moreover, if you think about production and mass production… Honestly, I don’t know if it will be possible even in 5 years.”

“But isn’t the suit also a similar condition? “The suit was developed quickly.”

Not so fast, but almost like, ‘Let’s start development.’ ‘Yes. It was at the level of ‘It’s completed.’

“It was more than 90% developed at the Agency for Defense Development, and after that, your Excellency and I touched on it. Still, production was quite difficult, wasn’t it? However, the autonomous combat robot you want is less than 20% developed.”

“Then should I be satisfied with the suit? .”

Eun-kyung is disappointed.

When he went limp, Gayoung, who responded sharply, was shocked.

I’m needlessly handsome. Just looking at his sullen appearance made my heart tremble for no reason.

‘This is why humans are really… !’

Gayoung cleared her throat.

“The method… “It’s not like there is nothing.”

“Oh?”

“If you would tolerate something a little inhumane… It could be shortened to about 6 months.”

“This is inhumane. What exactly are you talking about?”

“Autonomous combat robots have two core elements. This is AI that can make proper combat decisions, and hardware that can execute the AI’s decisions. Among them, AI requires large amounts of high-quality data. “If you can ignore human rights, it becomes a lot easier to get them.”

She almost read the paper and gave all her explanations.
After listening to her for a while, I found out that she was roughly saying that she was going to turn a huge number of people into experimental materials in order to turn ‘human behavior’ into data.

“You won’t die, right?”

“It doesn’t matter if you die, right? “I will come back to life anyway.”

“… “Let’s put the slaves in first.”

“That alone will overflow.”

Eun-kyung delegated authority over the autonomous combat robot to Ga-young.

“I can only say this because we live in these times, but as a scientist, my heart is pounding. “Ignoring all moral and ethical constraints, I research only for technical results.”

“Please do it as quickly as possible. “I will give you whatever support you ask for.”

“Of course.”

6 months to develop autonomous combat robot.

Probably by that time, unless there were major variables, the Sung Empire situation would have been resolved.

They are trying to build a robot in preparation for the emperor who is coming down from the northern part of the Korean peninsula by now, but this is a bit unfortunate.

‘But there are also people like the Human Federation. If you think about it, you can use it to maintain your power after conquering the entire Earth, and it can be very useful later when you do things like planetary warfare. Where is this? It would be nice if we started now.’

If we picture the future, he will definitely rule over the entire Earth.

And the Earth is very large, and in order to exert influence over all the regions, a key owner who has been edited by him must be dispatched to each region.

But in what period of time would they edit so many people and even send them overseas? In this case, if we can mass produce autonomous combat robots that faithfully follow orders, roughly equivalent to androids, there will be significantly less to worry about.

“I don’t know, so I’ll try an experiment first. Creating something from nothing. The efficiency may be low, but since it is a space class, it will be usable to some extent.”

The basic combat suit currently being produced in the suit development room is the result of assembling over 100 mechanical parts one by one through each facility. Of course, Eun-kyung’s editing went into each facility.

“The basic movements are almost complete with the suit itself… If we produce and install a roughly plausible AI and computing device… I think it will work to some extent.”

“AI is a program that has no substance. Can it be edited?”

“Umm…”

Editing programs on your computer… Is it possible?

“Or, Sir, how about removing the human brain and then editing it?”

“Yes?”

“I think it would be possible through editing to change the material of the brain into a machine and allow consciousness to be freely up and down. Once uploading is possible, you will also be able to copy and paste the program. “Once you secure the software, all that’s left is a computer to compute it.”

Is she crazy?
