Are robots animate? Topics explored in many films

But what Ye Feng wanted to figure out was another thing.

"What is human consciousness?"

Or rather,

"In what form does human consciousness exist?"

To make it clear, Ye Feng has been tinkering with one thing these days - trying to create a "life form" with independent consciousness.

As early as when he first created the technique of the stand-in, Ye Feng had considered how to make the stand-in have an autonomous consciousness. He tried to instill his mind into the brain of the stand-in, but the stand-in never became self-conscious, still acting like a dead thing.

In Sendai, Japan, Ye Feng temporarily created a war beast, and the war beast also had no autonomous consciousness. But Ye Feng noticed a detail - give the war beast a beast's brain, and it will have the instinct of a beast.

Ye Feng has been thinking: If he creates a stand-in with the same brain as a human brain, will the brain of this stand-in have the ability to learn from humans?

Ye Feng has been trying this hypothesis for the past few days.

He secretly controlled the plants and set up a culture pack under the park a kilometer away, creating an unprecedented high-fidelity double.

Ye Feng did not make a stand-in according to his own appearance, but made a stand-in with reference to the body structure of a guard outside the door - because Ye Feng's mental power could not effectively see his brain structure, he had to choose a guard with no resistance as a reference.

However, as soon as he started manufacturing, Ye Feng suddenly stopped-

"That's not right. Why don't I make it like a child? This will not arouse suspicion at all. ”

So Ye Feng looked for a six-year-old boy as a reference. Slightly changed his face. Reworked stand-ins.

This time, it was really accurate to the point that every cell was exactly the same, even the length and size of the cells were exactly the same.

The cells that make up the stand-in are no longer plant cells, but Ye Feng's body cells, each cell has a full set of Ye Feng's genes, to be precise, this stand-in is Ye Feng's "clone".

The cells of the leaf maple, which fused two "unknown pathogens", are abnormally active. Greedily absorbing nutrients from plant tissue fluids, it constantly divides, multisizes, differentiates, and finally forms a complete human form.

With the "carrier", Ye Feng tried to stimulate this body to see how he could make him feel autonomous.

"By the way, I can simulate a baby in the womb!"

Thinking of this, Ye Feng secretly sent a tablet to the location of the cultivation bag, and carefully selected various video clips of family life. Play it to clones.

After a few days, the clones reacted. In response to sound stimuli, a faint mental force looms in the brain.

"There's play. What's next? Well, I have to find him a 'parent'" Ye Feng's spiritual power swept through the nearby houses for more than ten kilometers and found a suitable candidate. "Yes, it's her, let's choose this one."

The surface of the culture bag surrounding the clone changed, and six spider-like legs stretched out from the earth. Taking advantage of the cover of darkness, crawled thousands of meters and fell into a dilapidated courtyard.

"Wow~Wow~"

The cry of a baby broke the silence of the night

Lao Yu is a well-known honest man in the village.

The son and his daughter-in-law are working outside, leaving only his wife and eight-year-old granddaughter to rely on each other.

In the middle of the night, a strange thing happened in his house, someone lost a child at the door, and woke up the whole village in the middle of the night.

Later, the villagers found out why the child was lost: the baby looked four or five years old, couldn't speak, was an idiot, no wonder it was discarded.

Someone suggested calling the police, so Lao Yu called the police. But this baby must be taken care of before he finds his parents, right? You can't live in a police station with a bunch of big guys, right? So the kind-hearted Lao Yu volunteered to take in the baby. It just so happens that there are few people in the family, so add some excitement.

Lao Yu gave the baby a name: Baibai. The eight-year-old granddaughter prefers to call him "Xiaobai".

The reason is that the baby's skin is so good, white and tender, just like a baby under the age of age.

He looks like he is four or five years old, but he behaves like a newborn baby. can't speak, defecate anywhere, stuff everything into their mouths when they are hungry, and experience the life of pulling children with a handful of and urine, which is hard and happy.

"In vain, it's time to eat." The eight-year-old granddaughter is usually responsible for watching the children when the two are not there or busy with housework, and the little girl takes care of people for the first time, which is fresh and interesting, and she teases the child when she has nothing to do.

At first, he was stupid and stupid, and behaved like an ordinary mentally retarded child.

But gradually, Lao Yu's family found out that he was not like that: this baby is smart here.

It didn't take long for an aura to appear in a pair of dumbfounded eyes. I can understand people's speech, and I know how to go to the toilet. Can laugh, be curious, frown, and babble some simple syllables to communicate with family.

As a little girl of left-behind children, Yu Meimei, teaching to speak in vain every day after school has become his greatest pleasure. Bai Bai is very smart, and he learned to speak in less than a week, which surprised the old Yu and his family.

The police came twice during the period, but they never found the parents in vain, and after registering the child's information, the child temporarily lived in Lao Yu's house. After all, if such a child wants to be sent to an orphanage, it is also a big problem - this thing will not be done by the old man, and if he goes to the orphanage, he will have to suffer. Looking at the chubby, white little boy, Lao Yu was very happy, he and his wife have always wanted a grandson, thinking that this may be specially given to him by God. So he resolutely left the child.

Seriously, Lao Yu expects that it would be best if the child's parents do not appear, but sometimes he feels that his idea is not kind. Alas, what a tangle. (But he didn't know that the child's 'parents' had been secretly watching him)

"Xiaobai, let's go, my sister will take you to catch fish today." Yu Meimei came back from school excitedly.

"Sister, what is catching fish?" Asked silly in vain.

"It's the crispy stuff you ate last night, let's go to the creek and catch the fish and make it delicious."

"What's the creek?"

"Gee, you'll know then. Xiaobai, why are you always stupid, like to ask around. Meimei grinned and rubbed the little boy's chubby, soft face with both hands, thinking that her brother's face was so funny.

"Huh." Seeing her sister laughing in vain, she also smirked herself. The little boy was unclear about his origins and always thought that he was originally part of the family.

In the beginning, in vain he could not walk, only climb. After a few days at Lao Yu's house, he learned to walk, and he would run in a week. At this time, Meimei likes to take him outside the village to play, catch fish, catch xia, roast sweet potatoes, dig peanuts, pick wild flowers, etc., just like running around with her loyal little followers.

When she came to the stream, Meimei took a long fishing net and stretched out under the aquatic weeds again and again to catch fish, nagging about some small fish and shrimp. Meimei was not satisfied with this gain, and went all the way down the creek to a small pond downstream. Meimei saw a few palm-sized crucian carp swimming leisurely in the pond.

"Xiaobai, look at it!" Meimei was proud, raised the net, saw the opportunity for a crucian carp to swim in front of her, and slammed into the net.

Crash!

Fishing out of the net, there were only a few aquatic plants, Meimei pouted depressedly, and said in her heart: "I don't believe it." ”

Seeing the opportunity to shoot again, I thought I had caught it, but who knew that the net was still empty. My sister's strength to admit defeat was born, and she was engrossed in attacking again and again.

"Ahh Suddenly, Meimei screamed, she stepped too far on the side, the edge of the ridge collapsed, and her feet fell into the water.

The pond is much deeper than it seems, and if it were an adult, it would be fine if it fell into it, but for a little girl who was only one meter and two tall, such a depth was enough to submerge her.

"Cough, cough, help-" Meimei choked on the water, fluttering in panic, she couldn't swim!

Bai Bai watched Meimei "playing" in the water curiously on the shore, and asked stupidly: "Sister, what's wrong with you?" Is it fun in the water? ”

"Xiaobai, ahem, help me, ahem, help!" Meimei sank and came out of the water, choked on tears, and couldn't say a complete sentence.

"My sister looks so miserable, it's weird. Well, I'll go down and play too. He tilted his neck and thought about it, and jumped into the water like this.

"Ahem, it's so uncomfortable, it's not fun at all ahem, it feels like I'm dying strange, what is death? How do I have a strange feeling "Jumping into the water in vain, following in the footsteps of Meimei, he can't water." Or rather, he didn't know what water was. He had a bad feeling in his heart.

Just when he felt that he was about to die (although he didn't understand the meaning of "death"), his body was suddenly pushed by something.

Crash!

Two young drowning men were thrown ashore, coughing violently and spitting out a puddle of water.

"Ahem, mom, grandpa will definitely kill me if he knows about this! Xiaobai, are you stupid! Why are you jumping off! ”

"Oh, I see you're having a lot of fun, and I want to have fun too."

"Eh--the melon seller, I'm dead, forget it, you must not tell your grandparents about what happened today, do you know?"

"Oh."

Meimei breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the muddy waterhole with palpitations, and muttered, "It's weird, how did I get up?" I feel like I've been pushed by someone."

There was no half figure in the pool, and Meimei looked at Bai Bai, who stared at the pool stupidly. (To be continued......)
