393: Do you think I didn't do anything?

Bai Yan's voice came through the headset.

“Mr. Lu, please come to the Commander room. Tian Ming has made a mistake.”

Tian Ming smiled calmly and then said, “I understand. I’ll be there right away.”

In the Commander room, the battle situation had changed. Tian Ming, as the strongest combat AI, had indeed fought a beautiful defensive battle earlier, with impenetrable defenses and extremely swift counterattacks.

Upon arriving at the Commander room, Tian Ming’s projection was in the center of the Commander room, being questioned by the Base’s generals.

After Tian Ming’s arrival, the noise in the Commander room quickly quieted down.

Bai Yan quickly walked over and said to Tian Ming, “Mr. Lu, look at the latest battle report. Tian Ming has made multiple major mistakes in his command.”

Tian Ming said, “Yes, Tian Ming has already informed me of what happened these past few days, and I know the details. A portion of the corpse race army can evade detection, and the density of detection equipment outside the stronghold is relatively sparse, leading to a lack of crucial information and thus incorrect judgments.”

Another staff member next to him said, “Mr. Lu, you can’t say that. Tian Ming’s computing power, after his own expansion, has far exceeded Number Three. For such computing power to make mistakes in this kind of situation is truly inexcusable!”

In the middle of the northern defense line of the wall, three long-range fire strike clusters, two drone hangars, and a large amount of ammunition were all completely destroyed overnight.

Moreover, during the re-layout of firepower, two more heavily armored robot legions were attacked by the corpse race. The occurrence of this situation made the Commander department’s confidence in Tian Ming AI waver.

“Old Lin, what do you think about this?” Tian Ming looked at Lin Yao. No matter when, Lin Yao was always so calm, unlike the others.

After a brief silence, Lin Yao said, “These corpse race are like phantoms, easily penetrating the defense line formed by the robot army, targeting the heavily armored units and the long-range firepower in the center. Their objective is clear, and they come with ill intentions.”

Although Lin Yao spoke, it was as if he had said nothing at all.

Tian Ming’s face showed a bitter smile: “Old Lin, what you said is like a riddle. I certainly didn’t understand it.”

At this moment, Tian Ming said, “Mr. Lu, I rely on various means to collect battlefield situations to make army deployments and judgments, but this time, I did not collect any intelligence or movements regarding this corpse race army. This is one of the major factors in my command error.”

As an AI, Tian Ming did not shirk responsibility but very frankly stated the main reason for his mistake.

The strength of artificial intelligence is based on complete intelligence and situational judgment. If the input is wrong or incomplete, the decisions and judgments will inevitably be wrong.

Under the interference of incorrect information, it is almost impossible to make correct decisions.

Tian Ming looked at Tian Ming in the projection and said, “What caused you interference is Jiang Chen’s Corpse King Phantom Legion. They possess the same virtualization ability as I do, and they can also absorb electromagnetic waves of various frequencies.”

Everyone was stunned. Why was Tian Ming so clear about this? He had never left the Base.

“You, how do you know so clearly?” Lin Yao asked, somewhat astonished.

Tian Ming smiled calmly and said, “Old Lin, you wouldn’t think that I just stayed in the Base and did nothing, would you?”

The projection of AI Tian Ming turned around and looked at Tian Ming. As a machine with its own thoughts, he also felt incredible.

“Mr. Lu, what is this?”

“Tian Ming, I ask you, as an AI, what is the limitation of your computing power?”

“Naturally, it’s energy!” Tian Ming quickly said.

Tian Ming smiled calmly and continued, “Energy? No, it’s not energy, but optimization. How many human brain neurons are there? You should know this better than I do.”

“Yes, Mr. Lu, an ordinary human brain has approximately eighty billion to one hundred billion neurons,” Tian Ming replied.

“And the power of the human brain? Tian Ming, have you ever thought about it? You can achieve flawless and unbiased results, but only with accurate information. If you rely on guessing, it can only be brute force. When fighting Jiang Chen, you treated this battle as a war between AI and the corpse race, but in fact, it is not.”

Tian Ming’s words made the AI fall into deep thought, and even the people in the Commander room were bewildered, not knowing what Mr. Lu was really up to.

“You, you want me to return the command authority to them?” Tian Ming seemed to understand.

“I didn’t say that. It’s just that if war could be deduced, then there would be no such thing as the weak overcoming the strong, and in fact, this battle wouldn’t even exist. Battlefield changes and variables are constantly occurring. This is not a video game. As a combat AI, you are inherently a tool, and as a tool, you must have the awareness of being a tool.”

The combat meeting room became unusually quiet. Bai Yan and the others were even more astonished. When Tian Ming overstepped his authority and began to control the entire Base, he had asked Tian Ming to stop him.

But at that time, Tian Ming was indifferent. He originally thought Tian Ming was ready to let things develop, but today, it seemed like a turning point was coming.

“Alas!” Tian Ming sighed slightly and continued, “Besides the frontal confrontation, Jiang Chen also has three legions attacking the Donghai City Base. The Gold-Eyed Corpse King Nan Nan under his command is the frontal Commander, and the Phantom is the culprit behind the losses caused by this infiltration. There is also one route by water, which will land in the southeastern coastal area within three days. The last route is underground, which is slower and will take about a week.”

Such important intelligence, and Tian Ming only said it now. This intelligence was almost impossible to obtain by satellite and machines. AI Tian Ming blocked the frontal attack, defending with ease. However, he suffered a great loss at the hands of Phantom, and once the southeastern wall is attacked, the entire battle situation will likely turn.

Lin Yao asked, “Is this intelligence accurate?”

“Of course!” Tian Ming nodded and said.

At this moment, the silent AI Tian Ming also spoke: “My information indeed has omissions, but that doesn’t mean they can defend the Base well.”

Tian Ming looked at the AI, who was still being stubborn, and smiled, “From what you’re saying, you can handle it?”

“Yes, Mr. Lu, I have enough confidence to deal with the upcoming battle,” Tian Ming replied.

At this moment, there was a lively discussion in the combat Commander room. Since the AI could make mistakes, it meant that relying solely on Tian Ming was not enough to truly defeat the corpse race.

“Tian Ming, give the command back.”

“Yes, we cannot entrust the fate of the entire Base to an AI.”

Once the first person objected, the wave of opposition became intense. These people in the Commander level would never entrust the victory of a war to an AI.
