It is around 12 o'clock now, so I should get some food. Only after I start another task, for efficiency.
The computer's internal storage is decently big at 200 terabytes but that has maxed out. So now I am going to do what I have done before to the external storage, remove redundancies, and compress what I can.
Now that the task has been assigned, it is time for some food.
…
Half an hour later, I am back in my office, ready to see how much longer the task has.
The last time took 3 hours so it should take about the same time.
…
2 and a half hours later the task finished.
I can now run the AI simulation again.
…
50 minutes later.
The external storage is full again.
I guess I will just rinse and repeat this all day.
…
The end of the day.
Today was really annoying. Having to babysit the AI was a continuous repetitive task that only required my attention quicker each time I reset it.
With the end of the day it also brought new upgrades.
The internet router, it had its capabilities boosted but, like last time it meant nothing because the internet plan only allowed up to 200 megabytes.
The smart watch, which I had been using mainly to keep track of my health. Which has been a little worrying, my heart rate has been a little fast while idle. I need to get more exercise.
The AI also got an upgrade. I was super excited for this, it was sure to be a big step forward. Which it was. The AI got more intuitive, so it requires less mass data for it to come to a conclusion about the data set. The user interface also got much better, now I have less to mess with to get the AI to work.
However, the thing I was the happiest about was the external storage drive got upgraded. It now holds a massive 1 petabyte.
When I got the upgrade I almost cried. I was so happy. But I knew it wouldn't last. Since it would only take 15 hours to fill back up.
Pain.
For the time being though it was a welcomed upgrade.
Before heading to bed I set the simulation up again. This time limiting the defences data to 200 TB and the offence to 500 TB. Once the offence won it would continue to mine for vulnerabilities until it either filled up the data or ran out of vulnerabilities.
That should keep it entertained for the night.
Time for bed.
…
The next day.
The day was a bit overcast but it was another day of progress.
The AI had been left running all night, well it had actually stopped at some point because it had run out of storage.
The power of a supercomputer!
Or rather the power of my AI.
I did a quick Foolgle search, and it seems that it would take a supercomputer forever to find all vulnerabilities. So the data must be just as vast. For now lets consolidate all of this data so I can really push this to its limits.
…
3 hours later.
After finishing breakfast and reading some webnovels. It was time to do a little more work.
AI, search for more loopholes!
Done and dusted.
Back to reading.
…
The end of another day.
I really pushed as much data as I could into 500 TB of storage.
Which is really a lot.
Anyway, another day, another upgrade.
Today the battery and the solar panel were upgraded.
The battery held more juice and the solar panel got more efficient.
…
The following day.
I woke up groggy, the days seemed to be slipping by recently. I was struggling to keep track of the days.
Today was Wednesday October the 8th.
Today I was finally switching it up.
Time to move onto the Https encryption. I was nervous, worried that this wouldn't work. Now was the moment of truth.
I set the AI up, running on the few different websites used to study http. I know it is not quite the same thing but I need to have a starting point to go off of.
I noted that I could only work at the flow of the internet as well as the processing speed of the request sent to http. So I decided to work on an hour rotation.
1 hour would be spent collecting data from the site. Then after that data was collected I would have the AI run simulations on the data collected to create a certain level of inference.
Then I would go back to the site to test if the inference was correct or not.
Hopefully it would at least be partially correct so there could be some forward progression but if there wasn't then the AI would delete the incorrect inference so it could not corrupt the data sets.
…
After having done this all day I came to the conclusion that the inferences were indeed partially correct and I was making fast work of the encryption that https used. The AI could actually start to predict the keys and certificates used when protecting websites.
A massive victory.
This is everything I really needed to hack into websites, which lead into servers.
Now there are a few hacking websites that encourage people to try to hack them as a test. Not only for the hackers but also for the site getting hacked, because they could use that to create a better protection method. A bit of a win - win situation that I would definitely take advantage of.
I really need to test out my AI's hacking ability without the risk of being caught and imprisoned.
One of the best ways to do that would be a VPN, but since I don't have one I need to be extra careful.
Wait, my browser has a built in VPN.
Huh I guess I was being careful without even realising. But that does mean that my browser has all of my information.
I guess that means I just have to hack them as well.
