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 chores we've assigned 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 soreal 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 h
