Chapter 684: Epoch-making Product
"Next, let me specifically introduce our product, which you can name yourself. You can give it any name you want."
"But that's not all, our product also has a facial customization feature that allows you to change facial features through settings. You can make your AI companion look like anyone you desire."
"Many women probably want to be with Leonardo, right? Just buy an AI companion and design its face to look like Leonardo, and there you have it."
"And I'm sure there are plenty of men who want a companion like Kate Winslet. Just buy an AI companion, and your dream can come true."
"However, I must remind everyone here that whether you use a real person's name or design your companion to look like a celebrity, you should be mindful of copyright issues."
"If you get sued by Leonardo or Kate Winslet, don't blame us. But I believe as long as you don't show it off, they're not likely to sue you."
Charles's words made everyone's eyes light up.
Choosing a name isn't a big deal; lots of people share the same name.
This facial tweaking feature, to design a companion to look exactly as you want, is just fantastic.
It fully satisfies the fantasies of both men and women.
Many women want to spend a romantic night with a handsome man like Leonardo, and many men want to spend it with a young Kate Winslet.
In reality, that's basically impossible.
But this AI companion can make it possible.
Even if it's fake, it can still fulfill that desire.
Just this point alone guarantees this product will have no trouble with sales.
The dealers present were also dazzled, as if they saw luscious green dollar bills.
Charles said, "Our product also allows you to design your companion's personality. Now anyone who wants a beautiful and sweet wife, or a gentle, handsome, and considerate husband, can have it."
What!
Everyone was stunned.
"No way, for real? You can even design the personality?"
"An AI robot with a customizable personality, that's just incredible."
"It's almost like creating life."
"If it's really like this, in the future many people might choose not to get married and just buy this robot instead."
"This is truly a revolutionary product."
"But won't such an extraordinary product lead to moral and ethical issues about human nature?"
"Don't fret over nothing, humans will always be humans, and AI will always be AI!"
"Right, no matter how good AI is, humans are irreplaceable."
...
Most people were shocked.
But a very few were not that surprised.
These were the insiders of the artificial intelligence industry.
An AI being able to design its personality is not exactly news.
Nevertheless, there are still limitations, and it cannot escape certain stereotypes like actual humans.
Charles said, "Whether we get along with someone often depends on personality. Some people fall in love at first sight, while others can't stand each other no matter what. Personality is a crucial reason it's hard to find the right partner, and why many marriages struggle to last."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.
Personality is indeed very important.
Some people are beloved by everyone, while others are hated; it all comes down to personality.
When choosing a partner, personality is definitely the most crucial factor.
Initially, the two might be attracted by each other's appearance.
But to keep the relationship going after living together, personality is without a doubt the main reason.
If personalities clash, no matter how much you like someone's looks, ultimately you'll part ways.
After all, humans can't remain young forever.
Only when personalities match can there truly be a lifelong companionship.
"Regarding personality, we can only do simple settings, such as gentle, scholarly, vulgar, attentive, hot-tempered, and so on." "Each time, you can only set one type of personality, but it's changeable. Just modify the settings, and the next day you can interact with a person of a different personality."
"You can set your companion to be a tsundere queen, a considerate warm man, a pure school belle, a spicy urban beauty, an overbearing CEO, and so on."
"There's nothing an AI companion can't do, as long as you can't imagine it, everyone is free to let their imagination run wild."
Hearing Charles's words, everyone couldn't help but fantasize about their ideal partner.
Some fantasized about a queen, enjoying the pleasure of being whipped by her.
Some fantasized about an overbearing CEO, enjoying the feeling of dating one.
Some fantasized about a spicy urban beauty...
"In addition, our AI companions also offer thousands of professions to choose from, such as nurse, office worker, nightclub girl, lawyer, doctor, internet celebrity, worker, nanny, movie star, singer, corporate president, business elite, and so on."
"In short, virtually every existing profession can be chosen, of course, these options do come at a certain cost, but the fees are low, affordable for the average person. Please look at the big screen."
Charles gestured for everyone to look at the big screen.
"Twisting a face costs 18.8, not too expensive!"
"Changing a personality costs 8.8, still acceptable!"
"Why do I feel like this charging system is similar to in-game purchases?"
"You're wrong, in-game purchases aren't this expensive."
"Sorry, I recently went to Hua Xia and played one of their mobile games, it seemed to be just as expensive."
"Damn, those Hua Xia mobile games are way too much."
"That's Hua Xia for you, they have money. We Fairland are poor. You don't know that Hua Xia's leading game company Penguin Games is the world's most profitable game company."
"Hua Xia people are really rich."
"It seems that the boss of Penguin Games in Hua Xia is one of the investors in YTXC Company, that is, one of the bosses."
"I see, no wonder it's like this, they're here to reap our harvest."
"Before, it was our capital from Fairland reaping the world, now it's Hua Xia's capital reaping Fairland."
...
The charging model was indeed similar to that of Hua Xia's mobile games.
People had some objections, but they could still afford it, after all, the one-time charge wasn't much.
Get a girlfriend, go out to eat for free? Go to a hotel for free?
Consider these charges as the money spent going out for meals and fun.
Thinking this way, everyone had even fewer objections.
"Alright, I've introduced the basic functions of the product to you all."
"Next, it's time to show you the product. Otherwise, if I keep talking here without you seeing the product, you might think I'm bluffing," said Charles.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Right, bring out the product."
"As long as you truly demonstrate those features you mentioned, I'll buy one."
"I want to buy ten, designed to look like ten popular female stars, to have them lie in my bed waiting for me every night, haha!"
"Damn, dude, you're freaking twisted."
"I'm gonna buy a hundred, to give away as gifts, because I'm rich."
"You're rich? Are you richer than me? I never care whether my friends are rich, they're always less wealthy than me!"
"Isn't that the famous saying of Wang Xiaocong, the heir to Hua Xia's richest man?"
"Heh, glad you know. I checked, and Wang Xiaocong is one of the bosses of YTXC Company."
