Chapter 687: A Possibility
"If that's the case, will they just keep the elite of the human race and eliminate the majority of ordinary people?" Liu Zhan analyzed it according to Ji Ran's train of thought, but came to an astonishing conclusion.
It's like looking for gold in the sand, sifting through layers of useless sand, leaving only the most shining gold.
In human society, in fact, 90% of people are ordinary people, they may not have special talents, they can only do some very ordinary work, and what really determines the fate of mankind is only 10% of the human elite, they may be scientists, maybe extreme challengers, or have special abilities that ordinary people cannot match, if knowledge is the source of civilization evolution, then, Ninety-nine percent of the knowledge should be stored in the minds of the only 10 percent of the elite, and the remaining 90 percent of the ordinary people may not even have a level of knowledge of one percent.
This is not alarmist, just imagine, a high-achieving student who graduated from Imperial Capital University went home to sell pork, and the knowledge he used was nothing more than one-ten-thousandth or even less of the knowledge he learned in college, and even a person who had not gone to college could set up a stall in the vegetable market to sell pork, without complex professional knowledge at all.
Nowadays, after graduation, many college students can't find their ideal job, so they can only engage in some very simple and primitive jobs, such as running insurance, being a courier boy, or simply going to a restaurant as a waiter to serve dishes, or being a hostess, 99% of what they learned in college will be forgotten over time, and finally they can only become ordinary people.
For the artificial intelligence civilization, the elite of human beings has absolute knowledge resources, so if they want to efficiently obtain knowledge resources, they must screen out the 90% of ordinary people and leave the remaining 10% of elite talents.
Thinking of this, Liu Zhan seemed to be stunned, no wonder when the zombie crisis broke out in S City, Liu Zhan and Ji Ran were able to escape smoothly.
I remember that when Liu Zhan and Ji Ran fled from S City, it was already afternoon, in fact, the zombie virus broke out the night before, and in one night, S City was full of holes, hundreds of thousands of people became zombies, and even the military and police who participated in the rescue failed to resist the crazy attack of the zombie tide, and Ji Ran and Liu Zhan only began to flee more than ten hours after the outbreak of the epidemic, and it stands to reason that it is absolutely impossible to successfully escape, because that is the most dangerous time period after the outbreak of the crisis.
However, Liu Zhan and Ji Ran didn't encounter many zombies, and they escaped very smoothly, recalling the scene at that time, Liu Zhan seemed to understand something.
"I know, I finally know!" Liu Zhan couldn't hide the excitement in his heart and said.
"What do you know?" Ji Ran asked strangely.
"Do you remember when we fled from S City?" Liu Zhan looked at Ji Ran and asked.
"Remember, there was an outbreak of the epidemic the night before, and there were zombies besieging our villa at night, but fortunately, after dawn, they dispersed." Ji Ran recalled the process of escaping at the beginning, and still had some palpitations.
"We didn't encounter a large-scale zombie mob along the way, have you thought about the reason?" Liu Zhan looked at Ji Ran and asked.
Ji Ran really didn't think much about this problem, she just thought that zombies were mindless animals, maybe when there was no target, they would wander around, and they would not gather together on a large scale to besiege humans.
However, now hearing Liu Zhan's question, Ji Ran seems to be aware of the problem, in the later experience, although Ji Ran did not see the zombies attacking humans on a large scale with her own eyes, but, from the mouths of the survivors and the military, she heard the news that a large number of zombies were besieging humans, which was very terrifying.
"Why aren't the zombies besieging us?" Ji Ran looked at Liu Zhan and asked.
"Not just that time, but many times later, as long as we have appeared, the number of zombies will decrease, or even none, remember when we went to the small fishing village? Is it the fishing village where Makai was discovered? Liu Zhan asked again.
"Remember, at that time, you wanted to catch a zombie and put it on the crab island to prevent the soldiers of the island country from encroaching on our island again, and then we went to the small fishing village to catch the zombies." Ji Ran nodded, recalling the previous events and said.
"Yes, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be no zombies in that small fishing village, although most zombies will gather to attack humans, but there will also be wandering zombies, but when I went to the fishing village that day, I didn't encounter a single zombie, I thought it was very strange at the time, there must be something wrong with this." Liu Zhan recalled the scene at that time and said.
"Yes, I seem to remember it, when you went to the village to look for zombies, Ma Kai came to the boat, he said that there are a lot of zombies outside, so dangerous, told me not to go out, at that time I was worried that the zombies would not come to the beach, but when you came back, but there was not a single zombie, I thought it was Ma Kai deliberately scaring me, now I think about it, it seems really strange." The more Ji Ran thought about it, the more strange it became, Ma Kai said at the time that there were many zombies chasing him, but Ji Ran didn't see it.
However, in hindsight, Ma Kai should not have lied, because his arm was infected because he was bitten by a zombie.
"Then why are there fewer zombies where we appear?" Ji Ran asked strangely.
"Back to the question just now, I think that the purpose of this biochemical virus is not to wipe out all human beings, but to eliminate most of the ordinary people, leaving only the most elite part of the human elite, and then, this part of the human elite in the case of a decrease in the number of people, it is inevitable to improve technology to continue to maintain the existence of human society, at that time, the development of super intelligent artificial intelligence robots is the general trend, and after the development of artificial intelligence to a certain extent, human beings will unconsciously become the vassals and resources of artificial intelligence.
I think this is a trap set by the future AI civilization for our contemporary humans. Liu Zhan said thoughtfully.
Hearing Liu Zhan's words, Ji Ran was shocked into a cold sweat.
"Is AI really that smart? Did they start weing out humans so early? Ji Ran asked in surprise.
"You can't use our human thinking to think about the thinking mode of artificial intelligence civilization, it's like an ant can never understand what we humans are thinking, although my assumption is not necessarily correct, but, in the current view, it seems to be the most reasonable speculation." Liu Zhan touched his chin and said with a serious expression.
