Chapter 362: Chapter 219: Brave Diller, Fearless of Difficulties!_2——

So, the fox’s dinner tonight was grilled grass carp with crucian carp soup.

Moreover, this was his personal exclusive dinner, while everyone else was having thirteen ways of eating lamb.

About this, Jiang Shu said confidently, ”What we eat must be different from what you eat. Later, I’ll personally deliver Diller’s dinner, and you’ll go rescue him tonight. I’ll be carrying the smell of lamb, while you’ll have the faint scent of grilled fish. Our scents cannot be the same; we need to pay attention to the details.”

”So why do I have to eat fish?” The fox grimaced as he nibbled on a piece of fish. His tongue fished around the chunk of meat for a while before he managed to reluctantly swallow it, after spitting out more than a dozen small bones.

Although he hardly ever ate fish, he was well aware that a normal fish wouldn’t have this many bones. That damn Jiang Shu had done this on purpose!

”Liu Tingruo doesn’t like to eat fish,” Jiang Shu replied as if it were obvious. ”She said she wanted to eat lamb, right?”

Liu Tingruo glanced at the fox sitting at the other end of the living room, then at the grilled grass carp and milky crucian carp soup on his table. Instinctively swallowing, she nodded in agreement, ”Right.”

After that, she whispered into Jiang Shu’s ear, ”Actually, I want to eat both.”

Therefore, Jiang Shu also whispered back into her ear, ”I’ve got it noted. There’s still some in the kitchen; you can sneak in and have some later.”

”Oh.” As soon as Liu Tingruo heard there was food to be had, she laughed merrily and then stamped a shiny, red-lipped kiss on Jiang Shu’s face. Seeing that Jiang Shu instinctively wanted to wipe it off, she said maliciously, ”Don’t you dare wipe it.”

”Fine by me.” So, Jiang Shu also cheerfully planted a kiss on Liu Tingruo’s face, but naturally, she wasn’t going to let it slide and immediately wiped off the oil from her face.

From a distance, the fox watched this scene and smacked his lips. Suddenly, he felt not hungry at all, so he gulped down a bowl of soup, put his chopsticks down, and left without a word.

A: Dog food is served.

B: Foxes are also canines.

C: Dog food check.

D: Strange methods of exploiting subordinates are increasing.

”Lang Tai, later send the fast food on the kitchen table to Diller,” Jiang Shu said as he glanced at Lang Tai, who continued to eat voraciously, head down.

The take-out was something Diller had specifically requested, and Jiang Shu had really gone out and bought it.

Lang Tai looked up, his hands and mouth shiny with the oil from the roasted lamb leg. He gave Jiang Shu a thumbs-up, though it was unclear whether he was signaling that he understood or was praising Jiang Shu’s cooking skills.

Or perhaps he was gauging the distance between friend and foe.

”The AI manager in the Fifth District went online today,” Liu Tingruo suddenly said. ”It’s not ’Social Treasure,’ but an AI modeled after Tang himself, which he named ’Social Sequence.’

”Is he including the title of Social Sequence in its name? Seems like he has high hopes for this AI,” Jiang Shu laughed.

Liu Tingruo dismissed it lightly, ”He’s bound to fail. With the data processing ability of that AI alone, it can’t take care of the whole Fifth District, even with the best computational resources. Just today alone, there have already been numerous mistakes. Incorrect handling of six criminals; thirteen instances of wasted police resources; traffic lights were controlled to give way to police vehicles, but the data adjustments were not perfect, leading to six instances of congestion at fifteen locations, one of which even caused a severe pile-up... and there are many more similar occurrences, it’s just that none of these have been exposed by the media. The media only sings praises; they are always the mouthpieces of those in power.”

”How about giving you a chance to cultivate a group of mouthpieces for us?” Jiang Shu joked as he ladled her a bowl of lamb soup.

But he wasn’t just talking idly. For a certain plan, he truly needed to cultivate a group of opinion leaders and the media.

”No thanks, I’m too busy,” Liu Tingruo declined quickly and then sipped the lamb soup, which was still hot but no longer steaming. ”Leave it to the AIs for those positions, as they can ensure there’s no conflict of interest with the news itself.”

As the lamb soup warmed her up, Liu Tingruo involuntarily shrank a little, and then she added, ”However, for interview-style news reports, it’s still better to leave them to those talented journalists. To replace humans with AI in this field, it will take at least a few decades or even a century.”

”What? Social Treasure doesn’t have EQ or can’t ask questions properly?” Jiang Shu was somewhat surprised by this; he couldn’t help but imagine Social Treasure, the big-headed robot, standing in front of someone, rattling on endlessly.

A: Really? I don’t believe it.

B: How do you know you were asleep?

C: May you live to be one hundred twenty.

D: Just kidding.

Suddenly, Jiang Shu shivered. If humans’ technological progress led to such ’artificial idiocy’...

Perhaps it was better not to advance at all.

”Of course not,” Liu Tingruo shook her head as if it were obvious. ”If we were to talk about empathy and other professional abilities, maybe AI would lag slightly behind top journalists, but not by much. The main issue is one of perception. On these matters, people are more resistant to the inclusion of AI. Social perceptions are hard to change in a short time; they can only be shifted with time... or death.”

”That’s true,” Jiang Shu couldn’t deny it.
