"If there is a similar probability that something will go for good and bad at the same time, then things tend to go in a bad direction. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ariki said this, Levi naturally knows. 'If something is likely to go wrong, then it will go wrong', this is actually a casual sentence said by an Air Force engineer that is mainly of a complaining nature in Levy's opinion, and has long become a well-known 'law'. In particular, Levi teaches English in schools, and he naturally knows a little bit about this famous remark in English-speaking countries, otherwise how embarrassing it would be if he was asked by a student one day?

In fact, the main reason why everyone thinks this sentence makes sense is that human beings tend to remember those things that have negative effects on them more deeply. Suppose that seven out of ten important events in a year end up being good and three times bad. Then the eventual event that will persist in the person's memory for a long time, and continue to retrace itself and deepen the memory in the following time, is likely to be the three events that turned out to be bad. ”

Yuki, who has always said that he doesn't understand human emotions, suddenly became a psychologist. However, it is true that Nozomi's 'don't understand' should mean that she can't 'simulate', not that she doesn't understand the reason why human beings have these emotions. It's like Ryoko Asakura said that she didn't quite understand the meaning of death for organic life. It's not that she doesn't understand why organic life is afraid of death, she knows why, but she just can't experience the feeling of organic life, especially human beings.

Levi suddenly wondered, like Yuki and Ryoko, is it a certain lack of 'empathy'? He had seen a science fiction film that Super Suzun admired before, in which the main method that humans use to test whether the other party is a real human or an artificial intelligence clone is to test whether the other person has the ability to understand and see things from someone else's point of view. 'Empathy' here is not the same as 'empathy'. Just like Yuki and Ryoko, understanding the feelings of others does not mean having the same feelings as others. Ryoko, in particular, knows why humans are depressed and sad because of a certain situation, but she doesn't feel the same frustration and grief as humans.

In fact, Levi said that he felt that the methods and theories of the tests in that film were quite unreliable. He is not talking about 'empathy', but rather the logic of 'people who don't have empathy are not humans but artificial intelligence'.

To be honest, there are countless people Levy has seen who are cold-blooded like reptiles and have no personal feelings about what others or even himself are going through. Some of these people suffer from too much insensitivity and some of them are born with a lack of sensitivity.

Like those who are insensitive to anyone and anything other than themselves, Levi thinks they might as well be two alien girls, Yuki and Ryoko, who claim to understand human emotions.

"Yes, that's right. People are always impressed by those bad things, and good things need to be seen how good they are. ”

This is just like in literary and artistic film and television works, tragedy is always easier to infect the audience and can be remembered for a long time. People have always remembered the misfortunes that have befallen them more deeply, and the fortunate things depend on the degree of luck. Just as some parents insist on corporal punishment education, although contemporary society certainly does not advocate it, Levy, as a people's teacher, is naturally opposed. But there's no denying that for most children, it's better for them to remember what they can and can't do than rewarding them when they do something right, and beating them up when they do something wrong. It's just that corporal punishment is like a medical cure. The more quickly the medicine can cure the disease, the more serious the side effects tend to become.

"Because in human consciousness, emotions similar to fear take precedence over emotions similar to happiness. This is the instinct that is recorded in the genes of humans, and most other organic lifeforms, in order to sustain life and reproduce. This instinct helps humans and other animals stay out of danger and survive as long as possible. ”

Ariki is right. Lévy also believes that this tendency of human beings is mainly based on the instinct to protect themselves. The happiness of luck can make people's lives better, but the terrible pain can directly take people's lives. In order to live as long as possible, reducing the risk of accidents is the most important and controllable focus. And the most direct way to achieve this is obviously to keep in your mind the 'projects' that may pose a threat to you, which is probably why people always remember misfortunes.

"But it is precisely because the consequences of bad things can be very serious, so it is necessary to remember them deeply, and always be on guard against them, just in case? Although you may get a lot of benefits by taking a chance, even if the chance of failure is really only 1 in 10,000, if this 1 in 10,000 is triggered, you may die. ”

Especially the adventure with death as the possible ending, in Levy's view, there is no more than how many odds, it is simply a 'life and death' dichotomy question. Success is success, and failure is failure. No matter how low the probability of failure is calculated in advance, if it does, then it is a certain death, so why is there any need to continue to discuss the so-called probability problem?

Of course, although Lévi said this to Yuki, he himself never did what he said.

Don't talk about greed for wealth and danger, or in the motto of those secondary two teenagers, if you want to save something, you need to pay something. And life and death, aren't they the two stages of the scale that can be balanced, the most fair and just equivalent exchange?

Just what you do doesn't mean you have to teach others. Every day at work, Levi stresses to the students that they should study hard and be disciplined. He had never done these things himself, and when he asked the children in class every day, he had never seen this guy look ashamed.

"Yes, although the initial probability is biased, when the result is out, there is no point in probability. ”

Levi thought he was talking more emotionally, but he didn't expect to be unexpectedly recognized by an extremely rational alien girl.

In fact, a life like Yuki Nagato, who exists and is 'information-oriented', doesn't the angle from which they consider problems just like the 'charter' written in black and white.
