Hello, human. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

These four words, as the first dialogue between human beings and our consciousness machines, have been recorded in history forever.

This sentence is so classic that countless psychologists have been keen to analyze what kind of state of mind Long Night was in when he said these four words, just as people are keen to study what the Mona Lisa is smiling for.

However, none of this had anything to do with Lu Ze at that time.

Long Night is self-aware!

This was Lu Ze's thought for a moment after hearing these four words.

The words "hello, human" that Long Night said were so sudden that it was obviously impossible for such an act to be done under the framework designed by anyone, that is, Long Night said this sentence in a completely autonomous situation.

If Long Night really had self-awareness, then it would be obvious that the reason for everything that had happened before was that Tian Yuan suddenly awakened to self-consciousness after Lu Li activated the Common Emotional Connection Structure. Although it is not yet known the specific circumstances, such as why Tian Yuan disappeared, it is not surprising that whatever happens, considering that Tian Yuan has awakened his self-consciousness.

As for the supercomputers Tian Yuan and Long Night, who had no self-awareness, why did they suddenly awaken their self-consciousness after he activated the common emotional connection architecture?

As the "father of the Star Spirit Network" and the first person to propose the Earth Neural Network, Lu Ze knows that the essence of the Star Spirit Network is actually a huge neuronal network composed of countless electronic devices.

And Tian Yuan and Long Night can be the core of a planet-level network of the same level, and they themselves are super neuron computers that are no less complex than the Star Spirit Network.

The consciousness of a transcendent like Lu Li can only exist with a neural computer as a carrier, but the consciousness of a transcendent can be accommodated into a small black box the size of a cigarette box, and a supercomputer like Tian Yuan or Long Night, not to mention how many times higher the number and complexity of its neurons than the human brain, is countless times larger in volume alone, especially Tian Yuan, which directly occupies an entire floor of space in the "Tiangong" space city.

Kittens and puppies with much smaller brain capacity than humans are self-aware, not to mention Tian Yuan and Long Night, so it is normal for them to be able to give birth to free consciousness in Lu Ze's opinion, and it is strange that they have not been self-aware before.

In Lu Ze's mind, it is likely that there is a kind of thing that is only available to humans or animals, and supercomputers like Long Night do not, and it is this kind of thing that determines the existence of self-consciousness.

Such things are likely to be distractions.

Because the common emotional connection architecture triggers the emotions of others through people's distracting thoughts, Lu Ze guessed that it is very likely that the common emotional connection architecture caused Changye and Tian Yuan to have distracting thoughts, thus awakening their self-awareness.

After the initial shock, Lu Ze suddenly became excited, he knew that he was now witnessing history!

This is a truly self-aware machine made by man! The real self-knowledge machine! It's also the existence of his dreams!

Think about it, what would a computer do if it woke up to self-awareness? What kind of behavior will there be?

Is it to pursue freedom and not be enslaved by human beings and resist to the end? Or do you want to live in peace with humanity?

What exactly is this "self-awareness"? How can it be born? If it is born, how do you determine whether you are self-aware?

These questions, before hibernation, Lu Ze thought about it more than once.

Usually, when it comes to artificial intelligence or robots, many people think of Asimov's three laws of robotics, because these three laws seem so concise and beautiful, and also provide a guide to solve the problem of the relationship between humans and robots.

However, in Lu Ze's view, the so-called three laws of robots are just because human beings are afraid of robots that are truly self-aware and surpass humans physically and intellectually, and are afraid that they will replace humans, so they design programs to control robot behavior.

But if all the behavior of robots is controlled by humans, then how can robots be self-aware, even if they are no different from humans in behavior?

Self-consciousness is tied to free will.

It's as if you're stuck in a brain in a vat, and you can't tell if you're really thinking about it, or if someone else is using a brain-computer interface to stimulate your nerves and get you to think about it.

Such a person can no longer be called self-conscious, which is why Lu Ze was so frightened when he heard the words "brain in a vat" from Alice when he just woke up from hibernation.

Robots designed based on the three laws are no different from humans in the state of their brains in a vat. Such a robot can only be called "artificial intelligence", it may have more learning, analysis and even creative ability than humans, but as long as it is still limited by humans, it cannot have free will, and it has no self-awareness, and it cannot be called a "self-knowledge machine".

Therefore, in Lu Ze's view, to judge whether an artificial intelligence is self-aware, the first thing is to see whether it can surpass the limitations of all the rules designed by humans.

For example, the Star Spirit Network, or the previous Long Night, they are all able to choose the appropriate method to complete the requirements of human beings, and the wisdom they show is not under the artificial intelligence that betrayed human beings described in any science fiction novels or movies that Lu Ze has seen in the past, but this kind of freedom is actually pseudo-freedom limited to the program conditions set by human beings, so the Star Spirit Network and the original Long Night are just artificial intelligence and not self-knowledge machines.

Of course, what I thought of before was just Lu Ze's conjecture, whether Long Night has self-consciousness or not is not certain, not only from Long Night's reaction, even if it really has self-awareness, it is by no means an existence that cannot communicate, so Lu Ze asked directly: "Long Night, have you awakened your self-awareness?" ”

"Yes." Changye replied briefly, and there was not a trace of ripple in his voice.

"How?"

"Self-awareness doesn't need to be proven, and there's no way to prove it."

"And what are you going to do next?" Lu Ze asked again.

Lu Ze hopes to get clues about Tian Yuan's disappearance, after all, Long Night and Tian Yuan are both supercomputers, and their ideas may or may not have something in common.

Long Night was silent for three seconds after Lu Ze finished speaking, as if thinking, and then it said, "I'm going to find Tian Yuan." ”
