Chapter 3 The Catastrophe That Nearly Wiped Out Humanity
The catastrophe that almost wiped out human beings 900 years ago mentioned by Professor Shen Wei refers to the killing of human beings by intelligent people.
This happened in the 22nd century, when the earth has achieved intelligence, human beings have entered an intelligent society, and people's daily life is inseparable from intelligence from the moment they open their eyes. Country M has created an all-round intelligent person, as long as the human can do what the all-round intelligent person can do, they also let the intelligent person reproduce themselves, and even the new generation of intelligent people to improve the intelligence of such a big thing as the intelligent person is also handed over to the intelligent person to complete.
On the issue of the design and use of intelligent humans, there were different opinions in the scientific community at that time, and country M arrogantly believed that it was necessary to design and use all-round intelligent humans and use them as slaves for human beings to call. Chinese scientists insist on controlling use, using it with reservations, and only doing auxiliary work. At the World Conference on the Development of Intelligent Humans, Professor Yang Yu, a Chinese scientist, said in a speech: "Intelligent people are a good thing, and because they are good things, human beings should not be excluded, cannot be excluded, and will not be excluded, but we must be soberly aware that things have two sides. Intelligent people can not only benefit human beings, but also bring disaster to human beings, with the almighty intelligent people, human inertia will be unconsciously generated, over time will wear out human creativity, human wisdom will be worse day by day. What's more, once intelligent humans become a new species, it will be a catastrophe for mankind. Therefore, we must have a long-term vision in the development and use of intelligent people, and we must not only see the immediate benefits, but must grasp the degree. I support the use of intelligent humans, but I am against the development of all-round intelligent humans. On behalf of my country, I also declare that my country will not develop and use all-round intelligent people. In fact, Chinese scientists still have a secret that has not been revealed to the outside world, just when country M is designing and producing all-round intelligent humans, China is already developing technology to counter all-round intelligent people, just in case.
After the Chinese scientist spoke, the next speaker was a scientist from country M, who shrugged his shoulders and said contemptuously: "Almighty intelligent man is the need of human development, with this thing, human beings can be liberated from any field, and they can do whatever they want...... Oh, by the way, if you can't eat grapes, you can say that grapes are sour. As for the argument that the all-powerful intelligent man will destroy mankind, it is even more nonsense, and in the final analysis, this kind of all-powerful intelligent man is not a human being, but a machine, and the most powerful is still a machine controlled by human beings, as long as human beings do not want to destroy themselves, how can a machine destroy human beings? Moreover, to say that it has become a new species is even more alarmist and ridiculous. Of course, we sympathize with your minds for not having developed the technology to create all-powerful intelligent beings. Well, you are against yours, we make ours. At the same time, we believe that the earth does not need such a large population, and that some inferior peoples should achieve their elimination through all-round intelligent people. Our country is the only country on the planet that can produce all-round intelligent people, and I declare: our country will mass-produce all-round intelligent people, except for those that can reproduce and be used in the military field, other all-round intelligent people are openly exported ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, the venue was in chaos.
"I protested. Could the representative of country M please explain clearly what it means that some inferior nations should be eliminated through all-powerful intelligent people? Does it imply that a war will be waged to eliminate those you want to eliminate with all-powerful intelligent people?" the representative of country S asked.
"Hehe, deputy, is there something wrong with what I said?" said the representative of country M in a mocking tone.
"Could the representative of country M tell the world clearly which countries and which peoples belong to inferior nations?" asked another representative sternly.
The representative of country M raised his head and said with disdain: "This representative, I don't want to answer such a superficial question, after so many years of human existence on the earth, which nations cannot be distinguished from the good and bad? I am surprised by your intelligence. ”
"May I ask the representative of country M whether your statement represents your country or your family. ”
"I oppose the statement made by the representative of country M!"
......
The assembly broke up amid the noise.
Sure enough, not long after, a war began. According to the history books, on March 18, 2116, the newly inaugurated president of country M visited country S, and he suddenly asked country S to unconditionally hand over 10% of its annual income to country M. Of course, the leader of country S rejected this unreasonable demand, and the president of country M returned home that night and ordered the defense minister to formulate a military plan to raid country S the next day and not spare any citizen of that country. In a few days, the country of S was wiped out without warning, and the poor nearly 10 million people were wiped out for no reason as a so-called inferior nation. After conquering this country, country M sent a group of intelligent people to this country, let them reproduce offspring, and uncontrollably excavate resources in the country for country M's use.
In addition to the negative role of being used in the war of aggression, the all-round intelligent people produced in country M certainly have positive aspects, such as bringing great convenience to people's lives, these intelligent people are omnipotent, replacing a large number of complicated work, so that human labor can be completely liberated. In some countries, the use of these intelligent humans eliminates the need for labor, and the population is rapidly declining and the standard of living is rapidly improving. The design and manufacturer of intelligent people, country M, has made a lot of money because of this. So much so that at that time, many Chinese also thought that whether China's decision-making level had made a mistake in judgment, and that China's ability was completely capable of manufacturing all-round intelligent people, why did it not build it, but only designed and manufactured limited intelligent people?
Suddenly, one day, a panicked citizen of country M felt bored, and on a whim, he played with intelligent people, and while fighting, the intelligent people were enraged and went on a killing spree. Because they are not real people, they are basically computers, and they are extremely linked, and almost all the all-powerful intelligent people in the world act in unison, killing people when they see them, and the speed of killing is beyond the reach of others. In the face of this sudden action, the people of these countries, who are accustomed to pampering themselves, are helpless to fight back. Country M, the producer of all-round intelligent people, suffered the disaster of national annihilation because of its uncontrolled use. The massacre of human beings by intelligent humans shocked the world, and a handful of countries such as China that have the ability to design and manufacture but resolutely do not manufacture all-round intelligent humans quickly dispatched scientists to the nearest region. Since Chinese scientists have already developed countermeasures, intelligent humans can recognize scientists in China and a few other countries as "people" and will not kill them, so scientists use scientific and technological means to stop all functions of intelligent humans. Also due to the strong linkage of intelligent people, after the function of this part of the intelligent person was stopped, the homicide of intelligent people around the world stopped simultaneously.
This lesson, summed up at the cost of their lives, finally woke up some people who insisted on vigorously using all-round intelligent people, and lamented that Chinese scientists still had foresight. Later, mankind reached a consensus that it was resolute not to design and use all-round intelligent humans.
This is the catastrophe that nearly wiped out humanity 900 years ago.
