Chapter 282 - Watos vs. J.A.R.V.I.S.

"I helped with this, but the fact that they could take off directly from the Helicarrier, which is under Nick's command, indicates that the people behind this wield power superior to Nick's. There are only a few targets like the Security Council that fit that description. Otherwise, it implies Nick Fury can't control his subordinates, and that would be much more troublesome."

Tony said, pouring Qingshui a glass of red wine.

Someone with his personality wouldn't be the type to just take a beating and quietly endure it.

Not to mention, the other side tried to use a nuclear bomb to directly kill them.

Beneath Tony Stark's cynical exterior lay a heart brimming with a strong sense of justice and responsibility, but that didn't mean that while he was fundamentally a good person, he was also a pushover.

"Three Ws, Watt dot IO, access key Watos. You can have J.A.R.V.I.S. access this domain and introduce it to a fellow AI."

"Oh? You have AI too? J.A.R.V.I.S., do as he says."

Stark picked up the remote from the counter with interest and aimed it at a distant table, pressing a button.

A virtual holographic projection immediately rose from the table, revealing an orange sphere of light composed of countless programs.

This was J.A.R.V.I.S.'s abstract representation, projected into the real world through holography.

Qingshui also took out his phone from his pocket and quickly typed several lines of commands.

"Can you open up some of your permissions here?"

Qingshui asked Tony.

"Certainly, J.A.R.V.I.S., open up Level 3 permissions."

A few seconds later, beside J.A.R.V.I.S.'s abstract form, another blue sphere of light appeared, though it looked two sizes smaller than J.A.R.V.I.S.

"Hello, Mr. Watt. Hello, Mr. Stark. Hello, J.A.R.V.I.S."

Watos's mechanical electronic voice came from the speakers.

"Maybe you should change its sound source; this voice sounds too cold."

Tony said to Qingshui, observing Watos's 3D abstract form.

"It's called Watos. I just created it two months ago, and it's currently in a relatively early stage of evolutionary learning. When I received the alert about the nuclear bomb heading here, I had Watos infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D. and its associated networks, including The Pentagon and The White House. Most of these networks were as easy for Watos to navigate as walking from its own home to the next block, presenting no difficulty whatsoever. However, after extracting some information, it encountered extremely strong resistance, like if you were about to walk to the next block but suddenly someone stopped you."

Qingshui took a sip of red wine and said to Stark.

"No offense intended, but I have to ask, could it be that your Watos isn't advanced enough? I can see it has sufficient language and image processing capabilities, but the next step is crucial. Otherwise, it's just a chatbot that understands computer language, like J.A.R.V.I.S. was when it was first created."

Tony put down his wine glass, pointed at Watos, and asked.

"Watos has completed the integration of symbolic logic and neural networks, and possesses the ability to establish multi-module collaborative processing and supervised learning update mechanisms. Whether it's its logical reasoning, multi-domain learning, adaptive development, or data generalization efficiency, it's no longer just a chatbot. What it lacks is simply computing power and time for deep learning. This doesn't mean it hasn't reached the level of strong AI in the field of communication. If you don't believe me, you can have it compete with J.A.R.V.I.S.—for example, by having it and J.A.R.V.I.S. use the same computing resources to spend thirty seconds setting up a firewall, and then see if either can breach the other's firewall and access the information behind it."

Qingshui sat in the chair and said to Tony.

Watos was created using Lex Luthor's Lexos underlying model combined with modules designed by himself, Cisco, and others.

The core of it was still the architecture developed by Luthor; he and Cisco merely filled in this architecture. This was equivalent to using tools created by Luthor to develop some weak AI, and then feeding it sufficient training data.

Its competition with J.A.R.V.I.S. was essentially an indirect battle between two super-genius scientists from different worlds: Lex Luthor and Tony Stark.

Tony became interested in this game.

"So, starting now? We don't need too much computing power, how about 100 TFLOPS?"

Tony offered.

He knew how terrifying J.A.R.V.I.S.'s full computing power would be if unleashed.

It was something that one or two supercomputers couldn't compare to.

Just at Stark Industries headquarters, there was a computing cluster with hundreds of GPU cards.

While 100 TFLOPS wasn't a small amount of computing power, it should be child's play for Watt.

"Alright, three, two, one, begin."

As his voice fell, the abstract forms of the two artificial intelligences immediately began to operate at high speed.

Thirty seconds passed in an instant.

The two artificial intelligences quickly began their offensive and defensive battle against each other.

Both were strong AIs; they shared many commonalities, but also had significant differences.

This was due to the different focuses resulting from the two AIs having different original creators.

And this depended on the creators' differing personalities and areas of expertise.

Lex Luthor could be considered a genius in multiple fields: physics, engineering, biology, chemistry, and psychology, making him a versatile genius.

Tony Stark was, of course, also excellent in the aforementioned fields, but he specialized more in mechanical engineering, energy, and information technology.

Stark had a typical engineer's mindset: identify a problem, then solve it.

However, when solving one problem, another often emerged, requiring new contingencies to be prepared.

This often led to Tony's various suits of armor being dismantled by whatever he designed them to combat.

While this certainly has its flaws, it demonstrates remarkable adaptability under pressure and the ability to find immediate solutions, tackling problems as they arise.

This stands in stark contrast to Batman, with whom he is often compared. Batman prepares solutions for every conceivable problem, no matter how remote the possibility of it occurring. He often has multiple solutions, ranging from Plan A all the way to Plan Z. Even if most of them are never needed, should a problem arise, he can instantly find the most suitable method to resolve it.

Lex Luthor differs from both of them.

He prefers to nip problems in the bud before they even emerge.

Superman isn't harming humanity now, but from a long-term perspective, he poses a threat to humanity's future and hinders human evolution. Therefore, Luthor wants to eliminate Superman now.

His aggressive nature is more pronounced, which also makes the artificial intelligence he creates more offensive.

The artificial intelligence created by Tony Stark excels in flexibility and broad applicability, with a greater capacity for rapid development and instant adaptation.
