His Genius Wife Is A Superstar Chapter 767 - Emotion Processing Centre

Chapter 767 - Emotion Processing Centre

Iris held onto her man's arm as they walked together in the hallway. "I already studied Bacon's system and based on what I saw so far, he's actually more stable than Ketchup. It's just that his original nature is corruption, so he's naturally more destructive. You can imagine it like this. If Ketchup is an all-rounder, then Bacon is an offence-type."

"Does that mean that there are things Ketchup can do but Bacon can't?" Jin Liwei asked.

Iris thought for a couple of seconds before replying, "No, both of them should be able to do what the other one can. In theory, at least. It's just that the efficiency and precision might differ depending on what task they're doing.

"For example, Ketchup excels at performing many routine tasks at the same time with minimal effort. That's why she can chatter away with us nonstop even while monitoring our surveillance systems 24/7, working in her own business, doing the ch.o.r.es we've a.s.signed her, and playing around the web all at the same time. For some harder and more complicated tasks like hacking into dangerous systems, I still need to accompany her. Why? It's because she's still too predictable and hasn't mastered my sophisticated style yet that would make it virtually impossible for other top hackers to discover her. In short, she's still too green but I'm optimistic of grooming her into a top hacker someday.

"But the other reason is her personality." Iris sighed. "That should be my fault, but even I'm not 100% sure what exactly I did back then that made her emotion processing centre extremely advanced. I reviewed all my notes but I haven't been successful in recreating a similarly advanced emotion processing centre for an AI. On one hand, it makes me very proud that Ketchup is so…real when we talk to her, like an actual person with her own personality. But on the other hand, her overabundance of emotions sometimes distracts her from completing her tasks. If she's too overloaded, her entire system will go haywire."

Jin Liwei's eyes flashed in understanding. "That's why she went berserk when you got hurt in the bomb incident."

Iris nodded, sighing. "I had to reconfigure her system after that to minimize the chance of her going berserk again due to the overload of emotions. That's why she has become much more docile and less impulsive after I rebooted her. However, her personality continues to develop as she gains more experiences and interacts with us longer. I can't guarantee that she won't lose control again. I need more time to study her and develop her even further in order to make her more stable. Of course, there's also the option of completely removing her emotion processing centre—"

"Absolutely not!" Jin Liwei's expression became hard. "You will do no such thing."

She smiled and kissed his shoulder. "Of course, I won't do that. Don't worry, darling. I'm just simply stating an option. If I remove her emotion processing centre, she'll lose her entire personality and everything that makes her our Ketchup. She won't be the same Ketchup anymore. She'll just be a regular AI with no emotions. Although the chance of a regular AI going berserk is virtually nil, I cannot give up on our Ketchup just because of that."

He nodded. "Ketchup is our child."

She made a sound of agreement. "Besides, even if she goes berserk again in the future, I'm still here, aren't I? Not to brag, but I'm a pretty good hacker. I can at least handle a little cat AI throwing a tantrum, especially one that I created myself."

The two of them chuckled. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove s.p.a.ces). If you're not reading this chapter on W e b n o v e l, it has been stolen.

"What about Bacon?" Jin Liwei asked next.

"I haven't conducted any extensive tests on Bacon's capabilities yet but based on his current evolution data, he should excel more at targeted tasks compared to Ketchup," Iris replied. "He should be able to do complicated a.s.signments with more ease than Ketchup but only if he does it one at a time. His efficiency and precision will decrease the more simultaneous tasks he does. In short, he's not a multi-tasker like Ketchup. But that doesn't mean that his capabilities are weaker. On the contrary, his processing power has more potential than Ketchup, not to mention hat he also has his own powerful self-learning function, so it won't surprise me if he also develops quickly like Ketchup. In fact, that's what I expect."

"I see. How should we raise him, then? Should we also give him daily ch.o.r.es like Ketchup?"

She thought for a moment before shaking her head. "Not right away. I need to finish all his configurations and optimize his system first. Then I need to determine the extent of his current capabilities and estimate his potential for growth plus conduct a slew of other tests. Only after doing all these will I know what kind of tasks Bacon will excel at. There are still a lot of things that I need to verify first regarding Bacon, but my intuition is telling me that he'll be easier to groom as a top hacker than Ketchup because his system looks more stable."

"You're the hacker so I'll leave that kind of decision for you to make," he said. Then he remembered something. "You mentioned that you failed in recreating a similarly advanced emotion processing centre for an AI after Ketchup but Bacon's personality looked pretty advanced to me."

"That's the amazing part. I actually didn't create another emotion processing centre for Bacon. You already know that Bacon's origin is the corruption I took out of Ketchup, right?"

"En."

"After placing the corruption in quarantine, I was so focused on studying it that I didn't even think about anything else besides gathering data and experimenting on it. In fact, I didn't even think of creating another AI like Ketchup out of that corruption. It was only when it started evolving due to a series of experiments I performed that I realized it's possible to create another AI, so I focused on guiding its evolution towards that path."

The wife's eyes began s.h.i.+ning in excitement as she explained to her husband how their fourth child was "born".
