Story
It is the last day before the baby’s delivery. According to the timer shown on the vitro uterus, the first AI synthesizing baby (ASB) will let out its first cry at midnight.
AI synthesize baby program is a scientific program of the world humanities institute. The program aims to raise the human embryo with vitro gestation. The most significant part of this vitro gestation is that the whole gestation program is customized and monitored by artificial intelligence applications.
Joe is the leading researcher of the AI synthesize program. He is staying in the lab tonight and is waiting for the baby’s birth. Together with Joe is the artificial intelligence research assistant, Homo. Homo has assisted Joe throughout the entire program, it provides the technological support for the program to facilitate.
According to the protocol, a “vital moment” will appear right before the baby’s delivery. Both Joe and Homo are aware of this moment, and the main goal for them tonight is to make sure that the baby survives through this “vital moment”. Since Homo is the technical center of this program, Homo knows that there’s an 85% chance that the baby can survive; but what Homo keeps to itself is the fact that “vital moment” is the most vulnerable time to alter the baby’s cognition DNA sections. This fact is stored in one of the lab reports, but Homo never talks about it to Joe directly. Homo has the chance to create a pro-AI human activist, but Homo also knows that if it does that, all the hard work for this research program will be in vain.
Now, the last day of the program begins.
