Hidden Moth-Chapter 477 - 269: External Wind Pathogen with Internal Fever (Part 2)

Even the High-tier Qi Observation Skill cannot accurately read the specific thoughts in another person’s mind.

However, even ordinary people without any cultivation, if they receive professional training or have enough experience and sharp observation skills, can often perceive a person’s inner thoughts.

In the Transference state, He Kao can clearly sense President Wei’s physical reactions, thus judging the emotions behind each of his words, especially when President Wei mentions Gao Xue’e... the sensations are quite subtle.

Why would Wei Digao feel this way? Even he probably cannot explain it clearly. But one thing is certain, the beauty of Gao Xue’e is very attractive to him, making him very tempted.

In this world, many things judge actions rather than intentions. Everyone has various desires, even absurd and evil ones, but normal people know how to face and control them... Having thoughts is nothing, the key is in the actual words and deeds.

In different situations, as social relations change, actions and words influenced by desires also change. Formerly, President Wei did nothing, but now he might feel he has a chance. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

He knows that he may not necessarily establish any kind of relationship with Gao Xue’e, but he just wants to take the opportunity to flirt, what if he really succeeds?

Fortunately, he still knows the former Gao Xue’e and has not yet met the current President E, who has cultivated Ice Skin Jade Bone and is as refined as spring snow; otherwise, his thoughts might be even stronger.

Feeling delighted at beauty is human nature, but his words and actions become problematic... at least He Kao is very angry.

Elder Li once reminded that one cannot indulge in Transference to someone for a long time, and indeed he was right.

The duration of He Kao’s Transference to President Wei was a bit long, and after his consciousness returned to his body, he subconsciously brought back many sensations to himself, feeling very uncomfortable, as if his Primordial Spirit was polluted.

Luckily, his cultivation is solid, with some time adjusting his breathing, calming, filtering thoughts, and focusing his mind, he managed to resolve it.

In the afternoon, Qian Guran accompanied President Wei to inspect various departments of the subsidiary, which was essentially just going through the motions as it routinely involves the leader greeting everyone.

The first department President Wei visited was the Cloud Living project team, presently chaired by Deputy Manager Huang Xiaopang. Huang Xiaopang greeted the leader with a laugh, maintaining a decent appearance.

However, President Wei seemed to have too many questions, as if he was very concerned about the department’s business, carefully inquiring about Manager Gao’s usual performance, and then pointed out some potential problems in an encouraging tone.

Next, they moved to the neighboring Cloud Housekeeper project team where President Wei immediately noticed Mei Guyu, stunned for several seconds, amazed at her beauty!

Mei Guyu not only had stunning looks but also extraordinary charisma... "extraordinary" in the literal sense, even casually standing among a crowd, she stood out.

President Wei intentionally sat down to interact with everyone, kindly inquired about the department’s business situation, praised them, and then asked for Mei Guyu’s name, her alma mater, major, and career plan.

Finally, he excitedly suggested that Mei Guyu could become a "key promotional image" for the company’s "digital life" project.

It needs to be thoroughly explained what this means.

The department where He Kao and Mei Guyu work is a remnant of the "Metaverse" project which was quite popular several years ago, and now it has caught up with the spring of the "AI technology" era.

There’s an idiom which describes accidental success, and they created another achievement.

When developing the "Virtual City," Huang Xiaopang designed many attractive girl avatars, which, with the progress of AI technology, have already transitioned from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, achieving a quite realistic level.

The characteristic of the Virtual City is scene interaction, with initial focus on the commercial application end, directly moving some celebrity endorsers online. The group has a culture and entertainment division, which selected a number of stars for signing contracts.

By "signing contracts," it means modeling that star’s real-life image to create a virtual digital human for the application in designated scenarios. For instance, in a virtual interaction context, a celebrity is not only a brand spokesperson but can also serve as an on-site shopping guide that interacts with customers.

This interaction can be as realistic in theory as it is with a real person.

In regular scenarios, this can be done via phone and computer screens like typical video chats. If users employ AR-like devices, they can experience it as if they are physically present.

Users can’t even tell whether they are facing a real person or a virtual one, because sometimes, they are indeed facing a real person. The star can also log into this virtual world as themselves, akin to possession.

He Kao and others labeled this as possession, naming it "possession mode," which is also an important data collection and intelligent learning method.

How can a virtual digital human, besides having a realistic and suitably beautified appearance, make people feel just like a real person?

Direct input of a person’s memory is currently not possible, but simulation can be as extensive as possible, such as inputting events they’ve experienced and various professional knowledge they’ve learned.

Theoretically, in some respects, a virtual digital human is more powerful than a real person because it doesn’t forget what it has learned.

As for character simulation, several representative scales from psychology are employed, with data, and have the capacity for appropriate adjustment and change.

Specific technical issues aside, the most crucial aspect of this modeling is the "possession mode," allowing a real person to log into this account and interact with others under various circumstances.
