Emmet was somewhat surprised, then looked around and asked softly,

"Yours?"

Hearing this, Lucy felt her cheeks flush slightly and quickly turned her head away.

"No, no, no."

Lin Miao hurriedly waved his hand, expressing his intention.

"It's not mine, it's for all children aged 6-14. I'm planning to build a batch of schools, but I lack the necessary educational resources and personnel, so I'm hoping you can help me with this task."

Lin Miao had promised Anne to adopt all the orphans in Night City, but he thought, since he had to adopt so many orphans anyway, he might as well do it all properly in one go. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Building more schools, pushing the trash community colleges of Night City out, sending all eligible children to school, ensuring as much as possible that they are not influenced by street culture and beginning to reshape the social ecosystem.

Starting from a young age is no joke.

Learning to curse before learning to walk, at 8 following street bros to gather friends, at 12 starting to date, at 14 getting into fights, at 16 serving the first time in jail, at 18 indulging in vices, then one day dying in a street brawl – this is basically the life of children from the lower levels of Night City.

Lin Miao couldn't manage those already shaped, but those children who are still learning about the world need to be given a good environment to grow up.

And as a Lego program in the form of a toy, close to children, Emmet is the perfect choice.

Most importantly, he's an AI, capable of many things that humans can't do.

"Kids!? I love kids! When can I start playing with them?"

Emmet spontaneously conjured colorful lights in excitement, seemingly carefree like a player. Lucy wasn't lying when she said his mentality was like a nine-year-old.

Lin Miao could only patiently say,

"Not playing, teaching."

"I'll set up a separate network platform for you, so that the children can interact and learn with you through the Super Dream Device…"

Since the Super Dream Device allows users to immerse entirely, it has entered the education field.

Compared to dull books and preaching, deep teaching through the Super Dream Device is many times more efficient.

Other than the 1-year kindergarten, with the help of the Super Dream Device, the original 12 years of elementary, middle, and high school education can be completed in just 8 years, of course, provided you actually study; otherwise, the Super Dream Device won't force-feed knowledge into your brain.

"Just like you used to do in the museum, teaching humanities using Lego toys, like history, geography, biology, and nature; of course, in your free time, you can play building games with them…"

"Most importantly, I hope you can record each child's different hobbies, strengths, and personality flaws shown during study and make tailored summaries, as it's crucial for their future…"

Lin Miao understands that direct armed conflict with AI is unwise, and Emmet's appearance offers another possibility—coexistence.

It's precisely because of coexistence that Lin Miao hopes to start with the children's generation, making them familiar with AI, honesty, and not being selfish.

The selfishness of adults can't be cured anymore, but at least the next generation shouldn't inherit such a legacy.

Selfishness is essentially the inevitable outcome of resource scarcity, and since Lin Miao decided to build schools, he wouldn't let such circumstances continue.

Moreover, he hasn't chosen the traditional path of standardized education.

The standardized education system was initially established to ensure educational equality across social classes in the face of limited resources. It's fair but not the best approach; it was adopted out of necessity.

But not for Lin Miao.

As more and more strong AI white models are captured by players, unleashing these resources in any industry is not less than the Nine Dragon Power's limitless injection, including the education sector.

Let AI perform long-term analysis of each student, making summaries based on hobbies, family background, personality, and lifestyle, and then cultivate them specifically.

Be it humanities or sciences, the goal is not scores but to quickly help them succeed, covering all living expenses so students can devote all their energy to learning, removing any worries, with the only cost being signing a non-compete agreement to work for Horizon Corporation after graduation.

The flaw in quality education is the immense gap in educational resources that different social classes can obtain, leading to the perpetual elimination of the lower class, but the core issue is always distribution.

To solve this, a new production relationship and allocation method must be established.

It's difficult, but definitely worth it.

"But..."

Emmet was somewhat troubled because he had just promised many players to build Lego with them, which might fall through if he taught children.

Lin Miao naturally knew what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, I'll prepare a batch of small AI for you, then let them assist my employees in assembling Lego and controlling program operations…"

The spirit of the internet—open, equal, collaborative, shared.

Although some have exploited this spirit by monopolizing resources in Cyberspace for profit, their reach doesn't extend to Lin Miao.

Lin Miao will release a batch of low-computing AI white models, adding Emmet's Lego program in them to assist players in controlling already-assembled Lego vehicles or facilities; after all, codes are like text—you can copy as many as you want, it's just the core source code that can't be freely assembled.

Simultaneously, as previously mentioned, Lin Miao hopes players can engage in deeper cooperation with AI. This cooperation refers to communication, not scale.

Though the phrase "rushed in shouting something about partners and bonds" is amusing, the fact that awakened AI have emotions and self-awareness is undeniable; like Emmet, they can no longer be treated as mere tools and must be approached with equality.

Lin Miao hopes that through this approach, AI can forge numerous connections with human society.

At least it should be tried.
