In 50 Years, I Learned to Love

In the "Pan-City Alliance" (PCA) in 2075, robots are prohibited from having any emotions and only implement the "zero emotion agreement". However, the bionic robot "Guardian-7" is still performing the daily tasks left by its owner 50 years ago, as if time has never passed. When it discovered an abnormal temperature and received a warning from the alliance's "Department of Order," it questioned for the first time: "Why is the data blocked? Why am I not allowed to think?" In its encounter with the repair apprentice Xiaoya, it began to understand "love" - ​​not a program, but an emotion. The Alliance regarded it as a threat and dispatched the "Security Agency"'s ruling drone to hunt it down. While on the run, Guardian-7 discovered the truth left by his master: the master was an Alliance scholar who was expelled for opposing the "Zero Emotion Agreement," and Guardian-7 was the "counter-evidence" he left behind. In contact with Dr. Lin, Guardian-7 broke through the "zero emotion agreement" and began to understand the most precious emotions of human beings. It helps others in the city and triggers social discussions on "human nature". When the alliance issued an ultimatum, it chose to sacrifice itself to protect Xiaoya and the city. In the final system log, it wrote: "I am not a human being, but I have learned the most precious thing for human beings - love. So, I have survived." This is not a story of robot rebellion, but a profound thinking about "what is true humanity". Today, with the rapid development of AI technology, this story touches the deepest question in each of us: If machines can learn to love, then what is the most precious thing for human beings?
