Chapter 290
Terun Citrea.
A legendary researcher who opened the beginning of AI sorcery 100 years ago.
He passed away at the age of 106, leaving great achievements that anyone can recognize.
… … and is known to the world.
But no.
Terun Citrea is not dead.
“Past life. In other words, Terun Citrea from 63 years ago succeeded in converting all of her brain memories into data. And he left that data in a special AI and passed it on to his son.”
Terun Citrea failed to overcome her physical limitations, but succeeded in developing technology to transfer her memories into the future.
Her 106 years of life were passed on to the future as data.
“My brain has that data in it. I remember all the 106 years of my life as Terun Citrea. That’s why I call myself Terun Citrea.”
Even though her body is gone, everything she left behind remains in her brain.
That is why she refers to herself as ‘Terun Citrea’.
Although her body may be different, her brain is almost the same as Terun Citrea’s.
“Memory and body. The definition of clone comes to mind.”
Shin Ha-yul, who had been quietly listening to Terun’s story, uttered a hint.
“Definition of a clone. A clone with the same appearance and a clone with the same memory. The debate about which of the two is closer to the real thing? It’s been a while since I heard that.”
What distinguishes a person as a person is the appearance or the memory.
It was a study that raised questions about him.
“It is a very minor study. I didn’t know you knew that.”
This is a paper that came to the fore about 40 years ago and then sank to the bottom of the water.
I didn’t know you even knew that.
“I know this because I did a separate investigation recently.”
“Recently… … . Because of this study?”
“yes.”
Terun glanced over the thesis on fully autonomous AI that was still in his hand.
“Completely autonomous AI is the same as making a person into one. It’s got to some extent with the Department of Clone Technology. Of course, it was concluded that clone technology was an impossible research. huh. I think it’s not a bad approach.”
Terun Citrea’s eyes shone as if she was quite surprised.
I never thought of applying this research to clonal technology.
A genius is also a genius.
“no. I didn’t look into clonal technology for that reason.”
“then?”
“Body and memory. Which of the two is more directly related to the soul? I’m curious about that.”
“… … soul?”
“yes. It is the soul.”
Terun Citrea tilted her head.
“You believe in strange things? The soul is a product of fantasy that has not been scientifically verified… … .”
“no. The soul is real.”
Shin Ha-yul cut off Terun’s words and asserted.
Eyes without the slightest hesitation.
Shin Ha-yul’s eyes were full of confidence.
“… … Interesting.”
It’s not just bluffing. Shin Ha-yul really confirmed the existence of the soul.
“Then, aside from whether or not souls exist, why were you curious about that?”
“… … .”
Shin Ha-yul was silent.
‘I wondered if Mimir’s spiritual data was real or fake.’
Since I couldn’t answer, I had no choice but to remain silent.
“If it’s hard to say, you don’t have to say anything. Because I’m not that curious. Of course, it is very interesting that souls actually exist.”
“I will show you that later when I get a chance. What is a soul?”
“You promised? Why don’t you just change your words later?”
“I don’t change.”
To proceed with this research in the first place, the existence of a soul is indispensable.
It is absolutely necessary to confirm the reality of the soul and teach Terun Citrea.
Therun smiled brightly, as if he was already looking forward to it.
“ah.”
Then, suddenly realizing that the conversation had gone astray, he let out a small exclamation.
“Somehow, the conversation leaked all the way here. Anyway, I am a descendant of Terun Citrea, who has intact the memory of Terun Citrea. Did you understand this far?”
“yes. understand.”
“… … I thought you would doubt it. Do you believe so easily?”
“There is no reason to doubt it.”
It’s just your own claim with no evidence.
There is no reason to lie like that in this situation.
It’s probably true with a high probability.
“you. I really like it. The words flow so well.”
“Thank you for a good look.”
Shin Ha-yul briefly bowed his head, and Terun smiled in satisfaction.
“Could I ask you just one question?”
“What?”
“Why didn’t you tell the other researchers about it?”
It was the first time in my life that Terun Citrea inherited the memories of Terun Citrea from the past.
Normally, a claim like that would spread as a rumor.
The fact that such words aren’t circulating at all means that Terun Citrea didn’t even talk to anyone else.
Why?
“If you said it and only succeeded in the verification, you would have been invited from all over the world, and you would have been able to do research without worrying about money or manpower.”
Why didn’t you do that?
“… … You are still young. but. Did she say she was still 18?”
Therun smiled bitterly.
“If I had told you this, I would have become a guinea pig instead of a researcher.”
mormot.
test subject.
“Isn’t the transference of memories a kind of immortality? If this technology was publicly displayed… … .”
“All sorts of people will be looking for it.”
“huh. that’s right. And there must have been a black mage tower among them.”
“… … yes.”
There was no way a person with such great skills would be left alone in the Black Mage Tower.
No matter what, he would have kidnapped her and taken her away.
Then, as she said, it would have been used as a research material for the Black Mage Tower.
Cruel human experiments must have begun under the leadership of the now absent doctor.
“My thoughts were brief. sorry.”
“no. I’m not sorry.”
Therun waved his hand as if nothing had happened.
“Then, have all your questions been answered?”
“no. one more… … .”
I can see why you haven’t told anyone about it before.
then.
“Then why did you tell me so easily?”
“hmm… … .”
Therun thought for a moment.
I’m thinking about how to say it.
“There are limits to being alone.”
“Any limits?”
“huh. The research I’m doing now hasn’t progressed in 12 years. That’s what I was trying to say I was wondering if a genius like you would find a new approach.”
“That was the reason.”
“and… … Also, um. I’m completely out of money… … .”
Therun scratched his cheek as if he was a little shy.
“You can’t possibly not know how valuable my research is… … . Speaking… … . what is it. Hey.”
I thought I wouldn’t have to worry about money in the future.
It was like this.
“understand.”
Shin Ha-yul nodded with an expression of complete understanding.
“Ah, of course, I didn’t mean to talk about everything like this at first.”
A strange color flowed from Terun’s eyes.
“Originally, I was only going to say half of it. He didn’t have all of Terun Citrea’s memories, but he had received some knowledge. Even if I said that much, I could have received support.”
That was right.
Rather, it may have received greater support as it was not perfect.
“Then the reason why you said everything like this… … .”
Shin Ha-yul’s gaze turned to the paper Terun was holding.
Therun smiled and held up the thesis.
“huh. It is because of this thesis.”
A bright light flashed in Terun’s eyes. His eyes were like the sun, full of joy.
“The theory used to transfer my great-grandfather’s memories and the theory in this paper have a lot in common.”
“You mean fully autonomous AI?”
“huh.”
Terun answered slowly, turning the paper page by page.
“Dataization of memory. and transmission of that data. This is already a great achievement, but this is not my great-grandmother’s ultimate goal.”
Therun paused for a moment before speaking.
“The transfer of memories is just a side bridge. While doing research, my great-grandmother, who felt the limit of lifespan, accidentally tried and accidentally succeeded.”
Therun took his eyes off the thesis and met Shin Ha-yul.
“My great-grandmother’s goal was to complete fully autonomous AI from the beginning.”
Shin Ha-yul’s eyes widened.
“So from 63 years ago… … Are you saying you were thinking of fully autonomous AI?”
“huh. My great-grandmother thought that was the direction AI sorcery should go in a new direction.”
“… … .”
To think that 63 years ago, fully autonomous AI, which no one has even tried yet, has been in the works for 63 years.
“You’re a bigger person than I thought… … .”
“then. of course. It’s not someone else, it’s Terun Citrea, the mother of AI sorcery, isn’t it?”
Therun laughed bashfully.
“anyway. So I told you the truth.”
Therun handed over the thesis to Shin Ha-yul.
“In order to pay homage to the genius who produced the results of over 100 years of research from my previous life at once. and… … .”
Close one eye and smile mischievously.
“Just to buy some sympathy. I thought it would be good in many ways to study together with you. I’ve been doing research on my own for the past few years, so I’ve been lonely.”
Terun leaned back on the sofa as it was, arched his back, and stretched out both hands.
“Isn’t trust basically something someone takes a step towards first?”
“Yes.”
Shin Ha-yul admired inwardly.
From one to ten, there was no part I didn’t like.
“so. how is it? Is this good enough?”
“Do I really need to tell you?”
If this kind of person fails, who the hell can pass?
“I wish you well in the future.”
“It was good.”
Terun smiled brightly and hopped up from his seat.
Then he stood in front of Shin Ha-yul and held out his right hand.
“Please take care of me too.”
“yes. If you need anything, please let me know anytime. If my family can do anything, I will do anything.”
Shin Ha-yul held hands and said.
“okay? Then I’ll ask you a favor right away. Prepare a room nearby. It’s big enough to be used as a laboratory. I’d appreciate it if you moved all the items from my lab here. here. It’s my lab address and key.”
“yes. I will take care of it right away.”
Terun licked his lips with an excited expression.
“And let’s talk to me about this thesis for now.”
“What are you talking about?”
“uh. So far, I’ve come a little closer. Going beyond this requires brainstorming. therefore… … .”
“ah. Come to think of it, I haven’t told you yet.”
“… … huh? what?”
I was only listening to the other side, so I wasn’t talking about this side at all.
“wait a minute. I’ll be right back.”
“Where are you going?”
“no. I have something to go get… … .”
I couldn’t take out Aes in front of Terun’s eyes.
“… … ah. Does it matter?”
But thinking about it.
There seems to be no reason to hide it.
In future research, it would be good to know about the existence of A.S. in order to provide more efficient help.
“no. I’ll just get it out of here.”
“… … ?”
Therun’s head tilted even further. It’s an expression that doesn’t know what Daejeon is talking about.
Shin Ha-yul laughed lightly at Terun, then took out the ace and wrapped it around.
“Where are you… … .”
Therun’s eyes widened like rabbits.
“If you say subspace magic, you will understand.”
“… … what? Ah, sub-space? Space magic?”
“yes.”
Shin Ha-yul put his hand inside the robe and took out the wads of paper he had prepared in advance.
“… … .”
Terun said, ‘What is this again?’ His eyes lit up with a smile on his face.
His eyes were a mix of half puzzled and half curious.
“How do you do subspace magic… … .”
“Talking about that later. Could you please check that first?”
“this? What?”
Therun held up a wad of paper.
“thesis? It’s not the same as what I read earlier… … .”
At that moment, Terun’s eyes widened to the size of a lantern.
“Hey you. this, this… … .”
I can’t believe what I’m seeing right now.
“yes.”
Terun, who was astounded as if he had seen a ghost.
Looking at Terun, Shin Ha-yul gave a hint.
“The one you saw earlier was a fake with only about 30% written down. That one is original.”
“This, then really… … .”
“You are amazing too. You haven’t seen a few pages yet, have you noticed already?”
“Really, it’s real… … ?”
Therun dropped the wad of paper from his hand.
I was shocked so much that my hand was weak.
“The theory of fully autonomous AI… … You mean it’s already finished?”
Therun lowered his gaze and checked the name of the thesis again.
[Mimir Papers]
The title of the thesis was such a name.
